The board lights it up  quite well at night

Can confirm. The board gives it enough light at night that it doesn't need its own spotlights.

It would be great if they could program the Fight Song to play over the speakers at Sunup and Sundown everyday

Yes it would! What would be the proper thing to do? Should I pull off onto the shoulder, exit my vehicle, and stand at attention? :)

I would, you know!

Anyone seen if it's lighted up at night?

It is not.  It gets a bit of light from the nearby sign, but, at this point, it is not lighted.  Hopefully, lighting is on the agenda.  Perhaps lights powered by solar panels to continue the green theme around Apogee?

Another turbine !

I saw it last night (9-29).  I was trying to exit I-35W onto I-35 E without taking out a guard rail.  My wife got a better look.  She says if "billows gracefully."

We call it "Big Jim."

So here's a quandary...on game days do you want a nice breeze to completely unfurl the flag in all it's majestic glory (but possibly affect the passing game) or do you want a calm day possibly benefiting the passing game (but leaving the flag limp and hanging down against the pole)?

As always, it depends on the month and time of kick-off :-)

      I find this thread comical. A program that wouldn't even pursuit Sanders as he was getting ready to leave Jackson State. They held on to Littrell could actually win something in year 7 is going to kick out Coach ELF and his flashy offense after year 2? 🤣. You can't give tickets away because it is so poorly managed and underperforming. If I were tasked with actually sabatoging the program in a covert manner I couldn't do it better. I wouldn't think I would get away with hiring a coach with no college experience as my head coach and retaining another coach for 7 years with nothing to show for it. Hell why aim low, let's go get Jason Garrett. He has NFL experience. 🤣🤣🤣

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      That is comical. 🤣 The only thing that makes things move in a capitalist soceity is money. And our Football program doesn't generate it. I refuse to continue to waste my time with a core fanbase that seems not to understand that. A fanbase that 💩on even the idea of pursuing a transcendent force with a home and other local tie in the North Texas region like Coach Sanders. Colorado Budget/Endowment: 2.3 Billion North Texas: 2.6 Billion Colorado Student Enrollment: 37k North Texas: 47 k There is no excuse for a program in a perfect position to reap the most benefit from Sanders jumping up from FCS to FBS for not pursuing Sanders PUBLICLY. Retaining Seth Littrell in the foolish misguided hope that he would go beyond 0.500 vs FBS competition in year 6 was a low aspirational budget conscious decision. It communicated to me this program doesn't care to sell more tickets nor win. Only when have ridiculous nationally embarrassing outing does this program respond with minimal conventional competency, making staffing moves. We wouldn't be debating this level of idiocy any fanboard for a respectable program. Who brings back the WORST DC in all of FBS for year 2 and NOT fire the head coach who wanted to give him another chance when he fails in year 2? My donations will go strictly to the academic side of the house from now on. Long story short if Eric Morris performs in a underwhelming fashion Morris and Jared need to be gone.

      The long snapper had an injury a couple of games ago. I don't think it was serious, but it may have some effect on the recent FG issues.

      G5 Rep up to #4 in latest CFP

      Yet they are placing us there via their ranking committee. Regardless, Tulane boxing the truck stops out of the playoffs entirely would be a nice shiny bow on an already unbelievable year.

      UTSA is the only victor today. Not a good round for the American.
