Great, an 11:00 am game! 

It's hard to tailgate and a small crowd. 

I wonder how bad that hurts the concession stands.

Agree on the early tailgating. 26th is still sort of a crap shoot on weather at 11am too. Could be really chilly, could be 85 with the sun beating down.

Especially tough when you're driving down to San Antonio on Friday for Billy Joel, then turning around and driving back up for NT Football the next morning.

Not sure what the other AAC TV games will be on that day.....but I did see this:

At 2:30 our time.....Rice at UConn on CBSSN.

That'd be such a better time slot for us. I really think HC should have been taken into consideration.....but I guess it wasn't.

11:00 AM....gonna hurt attendance especially those who come from out of town(Denton).  With 4 season tickets I maybe able to convince the wife to get up and come so as to not come by myself.

I wouldn't expect less.  My second time to see him.  The last time was probably in the early '00s.

homecoming game at 11AM? rough

 

No big deal.  No parade to accommodate and we get national exposure.  It's our job to be there and support the team.  Turn  your tailgate into a post game celebration.

I imagine the school is going to encourage organizations to reschedule their homecoming plans so activities don't start until 2 or 3 PM.

I am going to guess the school isn't as they have proven Homecoming isn't that important to them anymore.

Because they cancelled a parade no one went to anymore?

11 am is about the time the Homecoming Parade was starting to roll.  I miss the HC parade.  The notion that it no longer was important to the students seemed short sighted to me.  Alums and townsfolk stood for hours to watch.

It was important to the student body and helped create extra school spirit.  I think I was short-sighted as well and lazy to get rid of it.

      Love me some Chico with the jet black Roy Orbison interim hair. For me Chico is like Creed. I'm not supposed to love them but I do. Coach Canales loved North Texas more than most alumni.

      Earth to GMG

      This world does not exist anymore. It used to, but not in the portal and NIL age of college football. If players cared about coaching staff stability they would not be transferring at the rate they are. If this thinking permeates our AD, then they need to look for a new line of work because that ship sailed. Seriously, how many 17-18 years olds sit down and review the contracts of the coaches to decide which offer to take? High school recruiting should be de-emphasized. It can't go away completely, but building a program through the high school ranks over multiple years no longer works. When recruiting high school players, I think the only "stability" play is academic stability. There are a lot of players that have the skill and ability to play D1 football, but won't make it to the next level. Hopefully they are smart enough to realize that. Sell them (and their parents!) on playing a sport they love and getting a solid education and degree while they do. That's why it's important to continue to improve the academic status of UNT. We're not going to be a Stanford, but improving 4-year graduation rates and tighter admission standards will help.

      AAC Trend - Year 2 of 5 Firings

      At this point in the football cycle, if you fire a coach then you throw away all the recruiting work being done for the following seasons. The portal opens up in just a few days, and most AAC schools build their next years roster in the transfer portal. How hard is it going to be for these programs to build rosters for next season if they dont have a head coach going into the transfer window?

      I hope we lose to Temple

      Remember how much we hated La Tech in the 90’s and ‘2000’s? How we mocked them for stupidly going from an Independent in the 90’s to wasting the mega bucks on travel in the WAC in the 2000’s, and their obnoxious fans coming here talking trash? Then 2012 happened…… https://coachad.com/news/did-louisiana-tech-really-turn-down-a-bowl-game/ They had elevated their program to the point that when they lost the last two conference games of the ‘12 season finishing 9-3, and ending as the nation’s #1 offense, they were so damn upset over it they chose, either directly or indirectly to not play ULM in the Independence Bowl. That announcement was the day I practically fell in love with their school and their program because to me it was the greatest stance on principle and accountability and a standard they felt they had set for themselves and held to. Since then, we’ve been there several times, you and me, and have seen how poor their athletics were funded all those years, which gained even more respect from this college athletics fan. That’s where I am as a fan and alumn of NT right now. Wishing we would set a standard, a high standard and stick with it. Rick
