DENTON – Former UNT coach Darrell Dickey and booster Jim McIngvale said Sunday that they will ask the university to name the football team's practice fields after former quarterback Andrew Smith, who died in a car accident on Aug. 7, 2004.

Smith led UNT to a 6-0 record in Sun Belt Conference play and a win over Cincinnati in the 2002 New Orleans Bowl.

McIngvale, who donated $1 million to help with the construction of the Mean Green Athletic Center. He later requested that the fields be named after Dickey, who was fired Nov. 8.

Board of regents to vote on delegating authority

DENTON – The board of regents will vote today on a proposal allowing university president Gretchen Bataille and athletic director Rick Villarreal to enter into a contract with a new football coach.

UNT policy stipulates that the board must approve all contracts that include a base salary of more than $500,000 for the entire term. A deal with a new football coach would exceed that total.

Who cares. Name the practice fields after the freak'n tooth fairy. How many people really know the name of a practice field. It's not like its the stadium.

Let's move on to bigger and better things. Hemi power is in town!

GO MEAN GREEN!

WELCOME TODD DODGE!
