If a plane flies...

[H-towngreen]

If a plane flies with banner over an empty stadium, does it make noise?

It will probably make the same noise as the band music bouncing off of the metal bleachers at an empty Fouts.

What's the sound of 17 hands clapping? Oh that's right 8 and a half high fives.

It will be flying over a half empty tailgating crowd, not the stadium (which will be empty an hour pregame).

On a side note, finally got to watch the "highlights" of the WKU game. I could here individual voices cheering when we made good plays. Not a crowd, but individual voices. I could actually make out what people were saying when cheering.

Thats just sad.

Which confirms several suspicions of others on here that a lack of filled seats is a more effective a means of communicating our displeasure than an audacious IO campaign (the banner).

hand in hand.

Why not just fly it over the Admin building, circling the residential areas of campus, on any given week day, maybe during the lunch hour? More people will see it, including the guy you want to see it, and most will be moderately sober at that time of day.

sober sucks. Game day was what was promised. Game day is what will happen.

A picture says a thousand words...if you don't think the DRC and NT Daily won't be photographing this, you're being short-sighted.

Plus, if it pisses off the UNT 17, even better.

Look, the small donor fans are getting the win here. It either affects the change that needs to happen to the clear majority of people that follow the program in some fashion or it doesn't do anything, we paid to make our voices felt, and got to see the university's leadership give us a big middle finger, which allows us to use our time and money in a different way going forward.

To me, clearly, the biggest losers in this whole thing are the people who have bankrolled this thing and think that things are just great at UNT as long as RV is around because he is just so nice, he has a "vision", or because he gave us tailgating and a home-and-home series with SMU for the next decade. When you have sections of a stadium or arena to yourself, to the point that they can basically be yours without anyone with any dozens of rows of you, you might feel like a big-timer to your fellow buddies, but to the rest of the world, its looks rather pathetic, as in a complete waste...of time, money, and opportunity. It may feel better to you all when you compare it to how things were in 1995 when we moved up to FBS and played at Fouts and would soon join the Big West Conference and you'd be completely right. But if you ask our friends at UCF, USF, Boise State, Nevada, Troy, MUTS, WKU, and UTSA if we have gotten results that they would find acceptable since 1995, you wouldn't even get an answer--because they would laughing so hard as they walked off, knowing how ridiculous that question is for their own school.

Answer me this.

If a married man stands on the 50 yard line of an empty stadium and starts to talk, since his wife isn't there would he still be wrong?

I'd have to say "hell yes!" because I swear both of mine were telepathic.
