••• Take a breather from the usual stuff. 

❇️ Steve Williams (of Edna,TX) later became known as Stone Cold Steve Austin; anyhow, Steve played linebacker for UNT Coach Corky Nelson’s Mean Green back in the 1980’s. (Anyone else remember seeing him play at old Fouts Field)?

⚫️🦅🟡 Brett Favre needs no introduction to football fans both at the college & NFL level.

Stone Cold hosts a TV show on the USA Network called “Straight Up Steve Austin.”  In this episode Steve hosts his pal Brett Favre & the 2 country boys head out to the Mississippi woods to, uh, well...just spend the next 3+ minutes video excerpt from the original 30 minute show.

I remember him recovering a fumble in a victory over TCU.

It was the game that, in the final minutes, SWC officials decided that if a TCU receiver could touch a ball before it hit the ground, then it MUST be ruled a completion.  Thankfully, the SWC cowardice kept them from upholding the call, but only after an extended meeting of the officials on the field.

Including that UNT win over TCU, ADLER,  I can’t  find videos of UNT football wins over other Southwest Conference schools. That includes 2 wins over Texas Tech the last 4(?) times we played the Red Raiders. One of those wins is briefly featured in a video excerpt in a UNT season highlights video that the Mean Green Radio Network guys very professionally produced.

•••Another not-to-be-found video of a Mean Green win over a Big 12 Baylor in Denton, circa 2000.   
•••No video of a Mean Green win at Fouts Field over PAC 12 Oregon State in that very exciting shootout.  

If UNT has film (or video) of some (or most) of those games what does it take to put those on YouTube for the Mean Green Nation (& beyond) to view?  Just asking.🤔

Funny story.  I had a class with Steve.  He had long, straight blonde hair, and I never heard him say one word the entire semester.

Well his first stint in WCW he was part of the Hollywood Blondes with Brian Pillman so it fits.

Yeah it’s hard to find a lot of our past games. I’ve seen all of the OU and Texas games since the 80s, and a few other ones but that’s it.

I would love to watch games like Tech and Baylor and even the final K State game.

From his social media posts, one would assume he went to Alabama... 

Wonder who at UNT has touched base with him?

 How’s bout’ one of his shows on campus with a rich & famous UNT alum.

He interviews more than just southern rednecks.🤠 I believe he’s based in LA. 

 He had a fun interview with a R & B star whose name escapes me.

I want him to lead the team out on the field, slam a couple Miller Lites together at the 50 yard line, slam them, flip off smuT and get the crowd going.😂

So he's like the huge majority of UNT alumni that find a Power school to root for, huh?

Sadly, yes. But most of them didn’t play for the school.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
