#28 at HOD

Quick question for anyone in the know.  I noticed the Mean Green helmets had a 28 on the back at the bowl game.  Similar to Army, was UNT paying respects to former Army player Brandon Jackson that was killed in a car accident this year?

I believe so. I wanna say or heard somewhere they did it for him

That's a great gesture on our part.

Yes Littrell and Baker paid for the stickers themselves I heard.

It's great for SL and WB to do this, even if it wasn't much it truly shows they are great individuals who will do what is right.

Pretty cool -- wish they would have publicized this more.  I had no idea.

It means even more that they didn't publicize it. (At least in my book).

Very nice gesture.

You beat me to it...

Karma that North Texas, sitting with a score of 28 points, would kick a field goal to tie the game with 28 seconds left in regulation.
