Start the chant as the team comes down the tunnel.  Let them enter the field hearing that chant!

This needs to be done at every home game. Let the chant begin as the team is starting to gather at the entrance to the tunnel, and then build up to it's loudest as the team goes by touching the Eagle and entering the field.

What a (potentially) great way to get the crowd into the stadium earlier and be a part of pre-game.  Instead of their usual tradition of showing up stylishly late in the second quarter.

I agree up to the point when they start running onto the field.  Gotta keep the fight song there and a wall of cheering and clapping.

Agree. The point where the band strikes up the fight song is where the chant ends and the clapping and singing of the fight song begins.

Somebody in charge of the Band/cheer squad.......make it happen!

And I told Paul Batchelder, the GB director and the Spirit committee back in....2007 I think it was?....that it wouldn't work.  But as usual...in one ear and out the other. 

Ah I told him to lead the chants. My bad. I must have confused him. He says he's sorry. He mixed up his notes and originally had mine in the bad idea column, and yours in the great idea column.

He listens and cares about every suggestion and hopes you continue to make suggestions despite this small mishap, maybe even go fishing to make up for it.

The last few years the team running onto the field has been sudden and abrupt with little buildup. I loved it in the 90's when the GB would do the alma mater and Star Spangled Banner and then line up and play the theme to 2001: A Space Odyssey. It built up the emotion and by the end of the song the team ran onto the field to the cheers and rowdiness we all hope for as the GB broke into the Fight Song.

while i agree it would be awesome to have an entrance, I believe South Carolina already has this cemented as "theirs".

Looks like South Carolina started doing it in 1983. I remember the GB doing it in 1994 when I first started attending UNT. Not sure when we started doing it though. Anyone else know?

The team should enter like Michael Jackson did in the 92 Super Bowl. All 100 of them. I won't feel fully pumped until this happens. Please pass it along. 

I think you mean the '93 Super Bowl.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
