I got my ring in '96 by Jostens. I like it, but now they have a school ring like TTU, UT and TAMU has and it is manufactured by Jostens. I've seen it and I really like it. For the standard $55 remake/warranty fee, they will remake your old ring into the new style. I plan on doing this.

I am an '02 Grad and have the "official" Jostens ring. I like it. It is eye catching and many times people will stop me and ask about it - good chance to hype up the school.

about how much are the class rings?

it depends on the size and color of the ring. I got mine in 04 which is 14kt gold, and the med size, and it was close to 500 wink.gif but i love it, and people ask about it all the time biggrin.gif

John Roberts. I don't think they are in business any longer, but they made a very classy NTSU ring. No TAMU lookalikes. John Roberts also made rings for UT at the time. Mine has a more "ivy league" look. I'll see if I can post pictures of it. cool.gif

True story.

The Jostens on I35 in Denton makes the high school rings.

The Jostens in Green Bay makes the college rings.

I was at Texas Tech. I went to high school in Denton. My ring was cracking at the bottom. There was a Jostens rep at Tech. I showed him the ring. He said he could take care of it.

He shipped the ring to Green Bay. They shipped it to Denton. Denton repaired it. Shipped the ring back to Green Bay, who shipped it to me in Lubbock.

By class ring was better traveled than I was.

Actually lost my Jostens ring one time, how is a story for another day, but it only cost me $100 to get it replaced.

It is a nice little policy they have, but don't tell you about.

If it is lost or stolen, you have a one time only $100 replacement option.

Mine is ArtCarved also. It looks similar to the A&M ring, but I set the record straight if I get asked by any pesky aggie. I love the new ones and considered getting one when I got my masters in 2003, but I chose to stick with my old one. I’ve been wearing it 13 years and have grown attached to it.

Mine was made by ArtCarved who I believe is based out of Austin, Texas.

Really enjoyed wearing that diamond-studded ring, too. Guess someone else is enjoying it now or they allowed some pawn shop to enjoy the diamond part of it.sad.gif

My class ring had the rectangular design which I preferred over traditional. Guess I could always get another one, though, right? wink.gif Should I get one with, uh, "UNT" on it?!?!? blink.gif LOL!

I couldn't afford whatever they had in '74. I've considered buying a pendant from Jostens. I saw it at the bookstore when we bought my daughter's ring and it looks pretty nice. The rep from Josten's said they could also make me a ring with NTSU on it if I wanted!

GMG!

Mine is the official Jostens ring... I like it alot, but it is too loose and I hate the idea of losing it.

Has anyone had a jostens ring resized? the small green gem in the middle is also broken (can't remember how that happened) so I need that replaced.

Mine is also the offical Josten's ring. It's all white gold with no stones or anything so it goes with everything and I LOOOVE it.

I get asked about it a lot. Had a random guy at a Pat Green concert climb over the seat cause he was so excited about my "aggie" ring. I set him straight. But I get lots of comments and that is always good cause then I get to talk up North Texas. (Especially with the kids I work with. They always ask about it/want to try it on.)

Do you have the name of the rep who told you this ? I have asked before and was told that they would not put NTSU on the ring. If they would, that would be GREAT !

NCMeangreen. I made my own. I thought the rings were a bit pricey...so I just made my own. It is amazing what you can do with tin foil.

If anyone is interested, I can make you one also. 12.95, plus shipping fees. smile.gif

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
