Those of you that attend North Texas Men’s basketball, have you noticed Rob Coffey’s introduction line ?  Rob welcomes fans to “Denton, America !”  I’ve noticed this the last 3 home games.  I asked him about it Wednesday and he said, (paraphrase) “I just read what they hand me.”  Which makes sense, but why have we abandoned Texas in the intro ?  Texas is and always has been part of our name.  The only time I’ve ever heard “Denton, America” was when Smith Brother’s Roping was going great guns.  While I’m proud to be an American, when asked, I tell people I’m from Denton, TEXAS.

Has anybody else noticed this ?

I have and I think it must be a trademark of his or something.  He’s been saying that for as long I have known him.

We are not, and never should strive to be the "University of Denton".   

Is the ECU basketball intro:  Welcome fans to "Greenville, America!"??

I love it, actually.

I say wait until Denton shows NT some love first.... before NT proclaims it's love for Denton.
