Maybe this has been reported, but there is a big billboard on I-35W in Burleson that says something like: "Thank you Todd Dodge; coach, leader, friend, legend". Below the words is a big Southlake Carroll logo. Doesn't say anything about UNT, but its pretty good pub anyway.

Saw that billboard on 30th of Dec. It just goes to show the support SLC has.

Before the state championship game there were 10 or so billboards that said "Go Dragons - Protect the tradition" on I 35 south.

I got all excited thinking the AD put up a billboard advertising season tix.

Guess not...:(

I haven't seen one in the Lewisville area... However, if you go to www.meangreensports.com and have pop-ups enabled, a great little pop-up of Todd Dodge appears, with a link to his bio and to buy season tickets. It's the small things, but that's certainly a step in the right direction.

Yes, but 35,000 vehicles (according to PlummMeanGreens lastest statistics) pass I35 daily. It would be great to have billboard signage advertising TD, North Texas Football, Mean Green Club, and season tickets from now until the end of the year.

Oh, I'm not disagreeing with you there. I'd love to see billboards posted all over the metroplex advertising North Texas. But that's going to take a much larger advertising budget than what Athletics has right now.

I just consider the pop-up window a small move in the right direction. It was fairly cheap to create, generates interest in the new head coach, and encourages people to buy season tickets. At the very least, it's certainly better than nothing at all...

I also agree Metroplex billboards, like the Dodge pop-up window, are needed (even on the back of the Fouts pressbox). Now is the time to pull out all the marketing that has been missing in past seasons, while Dodge is hot and fans are excited again. The billboards would eventually pay for themselves in more attendance/tickets. Think BIG - be BIG.

perhaps they weren't SLC's doing at all; rather, some fans who were showing their appreciation.

Billboards leading the San Antonio southbound were from fans and for the players/coaches/team. Billboard returning northbound was by fans to honor Coach Dodge. You guys just picked up a coach who is a total class act. Help him add to the tradition at UNT, then be prepared to protect it. TD truly honors, loves, and respects the fans as a key part of the team. With the number or students and alumni in this immediate area you should be selling out the existing stadium in advance. TD's family is loved in SL for their love, integrity and character as much as the win/loss record. It's rare and refreshing when you have a chance to have both.

Thanks for the info; I know UNT fans are excited to have him as coach.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
