Greetings Mean Green family! I am graduating in the Spring and will be ordering my class ring soon. I wanted your thoughts on what to get. 

 

- Gold or silver finish?

- Antiqued or natural?

- Get the green stone on top?

- Is there a style ring considered "the standard"?

I'd love to see what you guys have yourself even.  I plan on ordering it in the next few weeks but wanted to ask here. Thanks!

I got mine gold without the green gem 10k gold with no antiquing.

- It will antique over time 

- I personally think the stone on top makes it look too much like a high school ring.

Just my thoughts! I think that one is probably most standard

Whatever ring you get...make sure you attend the Alumni Association's Ring Ceremony.

I really wish UNT would go with one standard look for the class rings. I've always hated how there's like 20 design combinations.

 

I got gold, natural, and star on top with the green gem in the middle.

Does anyone know of you can get a ring after the fact? Couldn't afford on 7 years ago. Anyone know how to go about that process?

You definitely can.  I believe if you contact the Alumni Association, they can help you figure out the process.  They might refer you to the Josten's representative.  I know Josten's keeps molds for past year's rings just for this very purpose and if someone might lose their rind and wish a new one.  Can definitely be done!

You can order your ring there.

That is the exact ring I am wanting to get I think.  Could you post a picture of it here?  You cant get a good feel for how it will look from the Jostens website.

That is mine exactly. I lost my original ring from 1995 and was able to have it replaced with the same style. Fortunately, I had it insured. The original cost was $500 and change, but the replacement cost was over $1200.00

Nice ring!

Thanks!  I would still love to see other people's rings.  Curious on how different other folks are.  I wanted to to just the star in the middle, but couldnt pass up the green stone.

A quick Josten's story:

Several years ago I found a smashed up mangled ring on the side of the road. It was gold, had dark red dust where the stone should sit, and Lew could barely be read on one side. It looked like a large gold nugget attached to a twisted tie clasp

Goofing around with it, I pried it open and there was a girls name and graduation year marked.

I brought the ring to a counselor at Lewisville High and she said they'd get the ring to the owner who was a senior at that time.

About two weeks later I received a follow-up email from LISD. The young lady was thrilled. She had lost her beloved ring months earlier at nearby tennis courts and her parents had refused to buy her a replacement as a costly 'teaching moment'.

Anyway, she contacted Jostens and they happily exchanged the mangled crumpled ring for for a brand new replacement ring, totally free of charge to the young lady and her family.

Kudos to Jostens, good people.

      Yeah, take that all out, and he'll still probably make triple the next two years what I'll make my entire life.

      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.
