Where/When was this?

At the Dallas County Alumni event. Also said he may be calling on some of those in the room last night to play in the homecoming game. That got a few chuckles. I think he's already hearing it from alums.

As shown before the bad news for homecoming is 60% chance of rain most of the day with it threatening starting Thursday.

The good news is it appears there is no chance of snow or ice, well it is still a week out.

"Beyond" excited?  I can't flip through the trusty old Oxford fast enough to find what word might fit that state of being!

May I suggest "orgasmic"?

Whose responsibility is the bonfire? 

Serious question here.

It seems that this should have been handled at a level far below university president. 

He took care of it, now I am hoping his next immediate announcement is that RV has decided to retire for personal reasons. That would be a great homecoming gift to the Mean Green Nation.

I believe the Fire Marshall can grant an exception to the burn ban if an application is made and a fire truck is on the scene. 

If we aren't trying to get an exemption, it is strictly because of give up. 

I second this. So does the DC Fire Marshall. (Who is a close friend, our kids are all in the same class, we serve on several boards together, etc.) 

that was exactly what happened.

Again UNT being a state agency can tell the Fire Marshall to pound sand if we truly want to do the bonfire, it may sour some relationships but so what not like City has done much to assist UNT or been a good host.

The university personnel who have been guiding Talons have been making piss poor decisions for years. Thankfully we have a president who can get shit done.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I love bowl week and we finally got a great game in Boise. What a fun year for NIU. A win over Notre Dame and double overtime win to end the year. They showed some stones on those 2 drives in overtime. Love their style of play. Wish they were a slightly better fit for the American. They are Midwest hearty at our level. A solid G5. I’ve teetered back and forth about our game, swinging from we’ll get blown out with no Morris, to let’s do this. Get this bowl win in January 2025. My hope comes from our battle testing. We played some solid teams and played them fair to well. Army was strong when we got them, Tulane was legit until the end, San Antonio got hot when we got them, same with ECU. Memphis was Memphis. We beat the SBC and MWC. I don’t know. The SBC seems a bit shakier in ‘24 and we were grilled all season. We may be just as good as TSU and surprise. Viva the American. GMG

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      Especially when (and yes I keep harping on this same thing) the whole thing started because players were initially claiming they should have a share of the revenues generated from the use of their N.I.L. in broadcasts and video games. It's interesting that the ONLY share they've gotten from those is the $600 EA Sports money and NO TV revenue. Regarding "trickle down", that's gonna' be hard to do when most schools are LOSING money on FB. https://www.on3.com/nil/news/what-is-nil-everything-you-need-to-know-about-this-major-change-in-college-athletics/ You're right about the chaos and I'm all for MORE of it in order finally force some kind of sanity to this whole thing.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I couldn't tell you what Bowl most of the P2s played in last year either. Didn't care, still don't. The whole Bowl era is outdated. They should just scrape it and go to a larger playoff of 32 teams.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      For those who don't remember, this is the guy who transferred out of Tulane to Duke. The guy will never have to work a day in his life. Now let the bidding wars truly begin. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/highest-paid-player-in-college-football-history-transfer-qb-darian-mensahs-duke-deal-is-sign-of-times/
