  1. Winning the Sun Belt is the most important thing, therefore, winning the New Orleans Bowl is our "statement" game. However, in this metroplex market, we need to beat teams people in this area are familiar with. If we NT was near Houston, we would need to beat Rice or Houston. Here, we need to beat SMU.

  2. The Mean Green or North Texas Battle Flag. I've never heard it refered to by any other name. How hard would it be (money) to have a giant Battle Flag made and displayed before kickoff or during halftime. Similar to the way Texas uses the giant Texas flag at Memorial Stadium ? That might be a good project for GOMEANGREEN.COM
  3. According to my hasty research, 3 teams are now bowl eligible for the 2005 season. Kansas State 5-6 (+1) Baylor 5-6 (+1) Texas A & M 5-6 (+1) Now how does the NCAA propose to fix this problem ?
  4. I don't want them to forfit to us. I want to beat them on the field. Boise is my new hero. If they can do it, certainly North Texas can do it. Reference the post below, who did Oklahoma beat (or not beat, in fact) in 2005 ?
  5. Any of you that are parents know that the telephone doesn't ring after midnight with good news.
  6. I like that idea. Give 'em a real ticket with the time and date of the game.
  7. Don't forget to also join the Grown Up Mean Green Club
  8. Try this. Have a drawing before kickoff for all registered students (is there any other kind ?) and give away free tuition equal to the number of hours the winning student is taking the previous semester. Or up to 12 hours for a new, but not previous student. Then have the same drawing sometime late in the 4th quarter. It wouldn't help with alums, but all students should feel a need to be in attendance and stay until the end. Maybe a random drawing during the middle of the game.

  9. Ref to NT03-Everyone buy season tickets. That would be a great tradition: "If you want Mean Green Tickets, you'd better get in line now, because, 'it's a tradition at North Texas-Everyone buys season tickets.' " At the risk of ending a (bad) tradition, could we avoid the playing of our fight song in an "om pa pa" rhythm. It sounds like, to me, that the band is making fun of our fight song.
  10. And Kansas State HERE in 2010 ? I'd love it, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
  11. I've been partial to Interstate Stadium, or Interstate Battery Stadium for some time. It would be named for Interstate Battery, but would also tie in to Plumm's "between two Interstate highways" as well as telling the address within the name. To paraphrase that cowboy car salesman on TV, "We don't care what you name it folks, just name it." er, build it Oh, and by the way, there is a N T Exes membership meeting scheduled for July 18. Toga, toga !
  12. Plumm, are you thinking of the Goldfield family ?
  13. Welcome to the Mean Green family, Riley.
  14. "Hello again everyone. This is Keith Jackson coming to you from Matress Mac Stadium, next to the Darrell Dickey Practive field, here on the beautiful campus of the University of North Texas."
  15. Are these student tickets on sale now ?
  16. Wearing white to this game could be misunderstood as support for SMU. Please wear GREEN and only GREEN. That way, from across the stadium people will know who owns Ford Stadium on Sept. 8.

  17. What was TD's record against the Sooners as a player at Texas ?
  18. The black uniforms were an embarrassment to the school. They were intended to be. When DD was fired, he should have been replaced. Hindsight. Glory to the Green. Glory to the White. The song doesn't mention an accent color. And as far as his legacy, as far as I'm concerned, DD trumped his own positive performance by his negative performance.

  20. I've been a season ticket holder for about 25 years. And I've typically gone to one or two "big" road games per year. Plus 4 New Orleans Bowls. I would guess 125 or 130. Shamefully, I've never been to a conference game on the road, with the exception of games at UTA when we both were in the Southland. Oh, and I'm going this year too.

  21. I would have thought that was Jordan Case at QB.
  22. I got this today (Sat). It's a way to determine who can buy out of town games. Season ticket holders get points for this and prior years (up to 5 years-2 points per year), and 1 point per $100. contribution to the Mean Green Club. Point ranges are 1-10 11-49 50-99 and so on. Each point range allows that season ticket holder to purchase up to 2 tickets, (1-10) 4 (11-49) 6 (50-99) and so on. As if you needed a reason to join the Mean Green Club, here's the best reason ever. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  23. '73-'82. Not only a great helmet at NT, but a wonderful helmet design by national standards. The Stylized Eagle. Gotta love it.
  24. I know I know, but I rather like the thought of going back to New Orleans for the North Texas Bowl game. When is it ? I need to get it on the calendar. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
