University of North Texas sculpture major Archit Karkare's career is soaring, and he hasn't even graduated yet.

Karkare's 'Soar' sculpture was chosen from a dozen entries. It hangs 10 feet above the floor at UNT at Frisco's Frisco Landing.

"I was elated, honestly," Karkare said. "I cannot believe that I got this, but it's real!"

The design was the result of a class assignment.

"It wasn't homework as such," Karkare said. "We were given complete creative freedom as to how we want to approach the sculpture."

Karkare worked with 23 Design Co. to fabricate his idea into reality.

'Soar' is inspired by the indigenous people who once called the land where UNT at Frisco sits home.

What? Why the football forum?

Probably one of those damn Boomers just looking to add content.

Back on topic, what an honor for that young man. To be a student and to have his piece selected is one heck of an accomplishment.

      UNT Men’s Basketball: Mean Green Travel To Minnesota

      Cousin Oliver copying and pasting a basketball preview onto the football forum may be our key to success. First win over a ranked or power conference opponent in 12 tries this year.

      I would like them to be good enough to be Quad 1 but not too good to get Will Wade hired away because they're our only home game on the books for next year lol.

      UTSA Game Poll

      UTSA is 4-0 at home and 0-5 away for 4-5 overall. NT is 3-2 at home and 2-2 away for 5-4 overall. They haven't gone thru the 3 game gauntlet NT has. Homer says we'll win by 14.

      Around the League / UNT Opponents

      figure one main thread to keep track of how our opponents are faring. the AAC is off to a pretty strong start...overall record of 29-7. plus currently Oregon State, High Point and Utah State / St. Bonaventure are all 3-0 - Memphis (2-0) with two quality wins v. Mizzou and UNLV. they should be undefeated (though San Francisco isn't a gimmie) heading into a 11/25 game with UCONN. - UAB (2-1)...I thought their loss to Vermont wouldn't look too bad, but UV has two pretty ugly losses now. really intriguing game tomorrow 11/15 v. High Point - FAU (2-1) look tough...their loss was by 6 to UCF who already beat then 13th A&M. - the other undefeated teams, ECU (3-0), Temple (3-0), Tulane (3-0), Tulsa (3-0), Wichita St. (2-0) collectively really haven't played much of a schedule...best win is probably WSU over WKU...but they've made pretty light work of what's in front of them. Games of interest over the next week or so: 11/14 - Northern Iowa @ Wichita State 11/15 - UAB @ HighPoint ; Temple @ Boston College ; FAU v. Charlston and Liberty (11/16) 11/21 - Memphis @ San Francisco ; FAU v. Oklahoma State (3 day tourney...would play Miami or Drake next)

      Sure but how good is Charlotte? They beat Richmond who lost to Marist. Utah State's other D1 win is against 0-3 Alcorn State who lost to an NAIA school. Again too early to really tell either way.
