Brings back a few memories from reading this article; I do remember the large crowd and it pouring rain in the first quarter......

You will also note the class act that is Bob Stoops. After pulling to a comfortable lead in BOTH games there, Stoops pulled ALL of his starters and played the backups for most of the third and fourth quarters. I can think of another Big-XII coach who could have done that, but didnt. As for the OU trip, yes... it rained BOTH times we were there. They also stuck us in those corner seats, all jammed in like sardines. I would take it personal, but they do that to everyone who plays there. Still, Meen Green Football is greatness anytime...in anyplace.

Bring on the season and the spread offense!!!!

GMG!!!

“They are a very good defense,” said North Texas head coach Darrell Dickey. “And at times we got frustrated on offense and made some mistakes. We left our defense on the field entirely too long and offense we must be more effective.”

No $hit! That's because you wanted it that way coach! Goodgrief! Scott Hall, responsible for 71 of our total 79 yards of passing on 3 of 6 attempts, means Andrew was probably allowed to throw once, bringing our total pass attempts to 7. Wow, that will back 'em off won't it?

Deep breath!

I hope the newbies around here will excuse the rest of us for falling out with excitement when we attack people with the pass this year.

It's ok to be excited about the forward pass, but we will be a running team too! Whatever they give us.

I'm a UNT "newbie" and can't wait to watch the ball fly around Fouts Field. Hopefully, you "old " fans will accept the new guys? Wife and I got our tickets yesterday and August can't get here soon enough! Obviously, huge fans of Coach Dodge.

See you at the games!

I was there.....yes the rain came down down quite a bit. Our defense was excellent. For those of you going this year be prepared to watch the video screen to actually have a good view as you will be tucked in the corner of the back of the endzone. Also you might not be able to hear the band as they were seated at the the very TOP of the section behind the endzone!!

First let me say, if it hasen't been said already, welcome aboard. And yes, I've already posted myself that SLC ran 51% of the time last year, but they ran when they were suppose to by smartly taking what the defense gave them. Hopefully you and the family will never see a commitment to the run from the likes of what Mean Green fans have had to endure these past 9 seasons.

I too was there in '03 and like Talon90 stated, our defense held their own against much greater odds that day, because that was what they were used to. In fact, I don't believe NT had a single major non conference win under DD that the defense did not score? And because of that I simply say to our new recruits this August:

Welcome to the "Gary DeLoach Football Practice Facility". <_<

      Just for fun

      So, I was thinking. There’s a high probability Chandler is going to get poached next year, unfortunately, so I wanted to see your prediction on who our qb will be next year. Just because it’s an off week and this is all in fun, my ideal scenario is to keep Morris.(both of them) plus, if one of us turns out to be right we get bragging rights!! lol That being said, I could see a certain former Guyer qb, that has recently lost his starting job, come back home and spend a season with the new qb whisperer!! That’s right, Jackson Arnold. predict away! cheers fellas!!

      Thursday/Friday FBS/FCS Games - 10/3 and 10/4

      Houston started to look like Fritz ball tonight. Cougar now has 2 wins. Raise a toast CQ and savor the evening. Good win over Sonny. Fort Worth looks bored directionless. GMG

      The Answer is Marketing....

      We all love Grant. Think it was a typo. Tough name for GM and auto correct. I don’t know about the dormant alumni. They seem like lost causes to me. A buddy last weekend who never goes to a UNT game though a grad, was happy to send me pics from smu where he went to see his beloved Noles. No connection to FSU but he was there. He doesn’t disparage UNT but doesn’t care either. And the silly alums on sports radio apologize for speaking about UNT or giving an update about a G5 team. Spineless. Go after the young families moving into Denton. Make it the Mean Green Village Fairgrounds for 7 Saturdays a year with different themes. October fest, funnel cake fan fest, food drive game in November, summer sizzling barbecue bonanza for a September game. Have a Mariachi Mean Green crew like they do at Texas Rangers. The mariachis on mariachi Monday walk around the concourse in their Ranger red outfits smiling taking pictures with fans. Then they play a few sets on the big screen and boom you get a unique group of peeps you look forward to seeing. The coolest thing this season was all their close ups of their championship rings as they strung their instruments. Could be a nice link to our Denton Hispanic community. Do some fun things the community would come out to and get them into the stadium. Jared is doing some creative things this season. Like Oktoberfest and tickets and tee promotion. Sellout game push and more to come for November. Keep creating interesting unique and different because UNT definitely is creative unique and interesting. GMG

      Portland Watching Party?

      I don’t think you’re going to feel in danger or anything. I go out most evenings when I’m there. It just isn’t that lively since so much has been shuttered. If the weather is nice, though, it might be livelier than I’m thinking and I’m told the city has been taking an effort the last few months to clean up the sidewalks. The area around Powell’s books (which you definitely should go to) is usually pretty busy and touristy. There are several really good brewpubs nearby and a dive bar or two. Feel free to DM me if you want any recommendations.
