That was definitely not the team we expected based on the rantings we heard from the NT fans about how bad the beat down was going to be.  I guess they meant their beat down.

Seriously folks. I think marinevet is right. The Mean Green never made it to Boca.

MEAN GREEN was a EARNED nickname. A bunch of nobody players banded together and decided that they were going to be a dominate force and not the doormats like the year before(1965). As a result of their blood, sweat, and RESOLVE they EARNED a nickname for themselves. This bears repeating........THEY EARNED IT.

Somehow there should be a mechanism/tradition in place where a unit (offence, defense, special teams) earns the name MEAN GREEN before they get to be called by that moniker. 

You know, you might have grown up in a family where being a Marine was a multi-generational tradition, but you don't get to call yourself a Marine until the actual Marines say so.

Couldn’t hear you over FAU scoring another touchdown

It surprises me to see a Marine, for all their pride and bluster, crowing about somebody else doing the job that they couldn't do themselves.  Irony.

Are you sure?  I thought UTSAMarineVet treated injured sea turtles and dolphins.

Just checking to see if the “Mean Green” made it to Florida yet...

Couldn't agree more. We sucked. Did utsa enjoy last weekend? 

Will UTSA top Rice and UTEP for last place?

WE haven't played Rice yet.

He's talking to the OP ( UTSA fan). So odd to be talking trash after having as big of a choke job as I've seen.

      West Virginia vs Memphis Bowl Game

      Actual attendance, incredible embarrassment.

      Mississippi Valley State (12/18/24)

      I'm gonna say yes...but probably not as much as people (including me) will want. unless something has dramatically changed in the last two weeks in practice, I gotta think the rotation is still the rotation and given that we're coming in off 2 straight loses, my bet is that Hodge will want the rotation guys playing as much together as possible heading into conference play. had we beaten High Point and/or if we had a better schedule that didn't have a two week gap in games, maaaaaaaybe RH would've experimented/tried to build more depth a little more...but given circumstance I'm preparing for little more than freshmen cameos.

      Portal WR Cameron Dorner - Shepherd

      Committed to North Texas. No idea what happened to the X links above. https://www.journal-news.net/journal-news/shepherd-transfer-portal-frenzy-d1-commitments-big-offers-and-a-standout-returns-home/article_237da94a-66bd-5bc5-b98f-299985e895f2.html According to this article, he turned down offers from 12 other FBS/FCS schools to come to Denton. It also lists him as a team captain.

      Breaking: North Texas lands Miami QB Transfer (Free)

      We can complain all we want about Aune but he holds the single season record in TD passes. While QB play wasn't perfect after Fine left, it was a heck of a lot better than right before Fine got here. I completely understand that. This is no different than any HS prospect or even an FBS transfer. Not all QBs can replicate their previous success in a new system. I'd still rather have a guy who was accomplished than somebody who never saw the field. Every transfer is a risk no matter what. Your logic is severely flawed though. Cam Ward was once a big time FCS transfer and was just a Heisman finalist with that Miami team you're trashing. Joe Burrow was once a career backup on an Ohio State team that couldn't win the championship and look what he did. If you want to get even crazier with it all, Stetson Bennett was once a walk-on who then transferred to a junior college before transferring back to Georgia to win a couple National Championships. We can go on forever with this. We got a guy with success at the D1 level. More success than Chandler Rogers had. There's no reason to believe he won't work out here.
