What about that "gig 'em" from the Aggies?   That must have started from TAMC cadets on training maneuvers, survival school, etc.  You know, eating off the land, gigging frogs for food.  Hey, I'm just spit balling here.

Originated at "Yell practice" before 1920 game with TCU.

Hit 6 !!! Yeah Baby!

Commonly consumed in a green drink, there is a spirit that if taken in sufficient quantities will help you and your fellow Mean Green fans to make it til the next time that the team performs well, and to forget about poor performances of the past, so you should offer them a 'Mas Tequila!' 🤣

Throw the ball?

I always thought our saying was and should be Go Mean Green!

[kj86]

Go Mean Green!

Back in the day we had 40,000 fans at the Cotton Bowl and boy let me tell you about for the next 10 years…

The whole "GMG" growth has been awesome, don't remember it being that prevalent when last enrolled in '14. I commonly just say the three letters, it rolls very well together.... 

[Tom McKrackin]

Go mean green is a great saying.  Very unique and rolls off the tongue nicely.  I have noticed both McCasland and Wren use it consistently.  I even thought I heard Littrell but he was mumbling.

My siblings and I all graduated from UNT. Whenever we start talking UNT athletics somebody says "Eagle claw." And then everybody does.

Then we make the hand sign, which kind of hurts.

[Daddy Dumpsalot]

Don't say anything. Just throw tortillas.

Eagle Claw or Eagle Talon?  I’ll hang up and listen.

Brian Kelly said this on the TaxACT broadcast last night.

It's not just him or SL.  I hear it more and more across sports.

GMG is awesome. I wish it was on more merch. The coaches started wearing that GMG shirt early in SLś tenure, it looked awesome. I wish we had stuff like that. 

Ive shouted ¨GMG¨ at people on wearing NT gear on vacation/out of town and gotten it back, itś great.
