This is awesome, truly shows how lazy RV was with scheduling when Wren does this in a few months. 

[Green Crazy]

my God, i don't recall seeing games scheduled so far in advance.

 

i'm looking forward to it though.

But I thought regional P5 teams would never come play UNT at home...

[UNT Mean Green]

Nice!

I think we are booked solid through the next five years or so.  This booking ten years out seems to be the thing these days.

FIFY

Hopefully we have a nice buyout on the return game since we go there first.

First sellout in 2027?? All joking aside, this is why you hired the man, & he followed through.. Excited to welcome in some P5 competition to Apogee.. Hope this is the first of many!

[Caw Caw]

Hell yeah, all three of my step-brothers go to or went to tech. Could be a great family event.

[TreeFiddy]

Knowing our luck, by then we will be in the same conference.  And it won't be called the Big 12.

Nice work though.  It definitely shows the type of scheduling that is possible.  Need more than the occasional KState, Indiana, and now TTech though.  Needs to be a regular thing.

God, 2027. It's hard to imagine what things will even be like in ten years. Will Tech have fallen? Will we have risen? Will we even be in CUSA? Or will CUSA be akin to SEC? Will The Wren be taken by the demon that possessed RV and still be around? I hope we can get a couple more fun games lined up in that '22-'24 window, but even with that said, I'm glad that we finally have someone in the AD who is willing to get their hands dirty and

Great job, WB...this is the best opponent we have ever scheduled to play in Denton in perhaps the last 50 years, if not more.

If everything goes as we hope, Wren will be the AD at a P5 school in 5 years or so and UNT will be looking to reload on our way up.

Great news!  I just wish it was sooner.

Awesome! Great job Wren and Co.! 

Totally gonna need to drive my self-driving car that day in anticipation of all the vapor-hol that will be consumed in the parking lot of the Hayden Fry Football Stadium across the street from old Apogee that day!

Not sure they're better than Houston, Army or even Indiana, but I'm glad they're coming. I just hope I'm still alive in 2027!

Forgetting about TCU, Baylor, Oregon St, Florida St. etc.   None of those programs were very good when they played in Denton, but Tech may or may not be better and NT hopefully will be a lot better.

Good scheduling, anyway.

Yes the younger fans will have to promise to wheel us in to see it!

Chris is volunteering to wipe your butt when you go poopie in the stands after we win!  Do you want to teleport-share with me to the game?

No kidding! And probably will have to prop us up too! It'll be like Weekend at Bernies, except it will be Saturday at Apogee!

Ah, I missed that.
