Krystal in Denton is also temporarily changing its colors as the restaurant on Loop 288 is now serving green eggs and green grits throughout the weekend. Customers will only be able to get regular eggs and grits upon request because, according to Denton franchise owner David Friedman, green is the standard for the weekend.

Krystal is just happy to support North Texas and the Mean Green, and just to be a part of the frenzy, Friedman said.

I might have to go eat at Krystal tonight and check it out, haha.

This is it right here! This is what separates decent college communities from great ones...everyone buying into and getting behind the local university. Go to aTm and see the maroon McDonalds or go to Tech and see the TT flags flying for a solid mile on the way into the stadium. Kudos to Krystal for trying to "get with the program.(pun intended)"

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. I really don't enjoy Krystal's but I will have to go by and get something just to let them know how much I appreciate this move. You are right Emmitt, this is what makes the difference between towns that support their teams and the ones that don't. AND this is even a National chain not just some local place.

Yes, Emmitt....I expressed my concern to the manager of our MacDonald's (that is next to campus) last year when they remodeled and changed their color scheme from green and white to bronze.

At one time that McDonald's was decorated with photos of NT athletics all over the walls and even lime green football hemets with worm decals hanging from the light fixtures.

It irks me that the 2 local McDonalds (NTB & Wal-Mart) don't opt to carry the green, mint Shamrock Shakes that some locations offer in March.

Me: Do you have the Shamrock Shakes?

Them: Yes, we have shakes.

Me: No, the mint shake.

Them: Yes, we have shake machines.

Me: No, the green, mint-flavored shakes!

Them: Oh, no, we don't have those.

I remember that from the late 1970's. It was great!

I never found any place in DFW that carried them when I was looking for them.

      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.
