surely we can find someone to invest in UNT football...right?? Building a mountain and a ski resort in Texas?? Maybe if all GMG members promise to spend a weekend at the resort, they'll donate $20 million to UNT as a gesture of kindness?? :ph34r:

Some of you may have heard about this idea back in April when it aired on FOX 4 News.

According to this article in Commercial Property News, the resort could be located at the site of the former Intel Corp. land at Alliance in Fort Worth. Alliance is a 17,000-acre mixed use master planned development with a large intermodal hub along Insterstate 35. The 527-acre site, located at the intersection of Eagle Parkway and Interstate 35W, was abandoned in 2000. The plans had been for a $1.3 billion semiconductor plant in 1998.

This story says they are trying to line up $700 million for this project.

As crazy as it sounds, apparently this project is moving forward: Snowflex

It is going to be on Interstate 35W just south of Denton in the Allience Airport & Texas Motor Speedway area.

Bear Fire Resort

Who would ever have thought that all those cattle pastures at the Denton/Tarrant County line would someday become a tourist mecca. The Perot Group purchased all of it during the late 1980s and is making some really interesting developments.

If it isn't cold enough, please refrain from wearing JUST your snowboard/Mean Green beanie.

They say 90% of your body heat is lost through your head... so I believe I can ski naked as long as I have a really good hat!

It's something that's definitely been done before. In Taos, I forgot if it's opening or closing weekend, several people traditionally ski Al's Run (which is directly under the chair lift) every year.

Lifer,

Thanks for the visual! I'm picturing you headed downhill with your mean green beanie (with the SOW) and your junk flailing all around. Thanks you SOB (JK)!! :shocking: :shocking: :shocking:

Not a Freudian slip, just a terminal case of the stupid's

I know I don't want a visual of you snow boarding neked. Hell, if your name doesn't have Miss October in front of it, I really don't want that image in my mind.

      What is this program missing?

      Simple. UNT has never won the conference and doesn't have a signature win that captured the nation attention. No 2-10 Arkansas doesn't count. UNT also needs a Heisman Candidate to be the face of the team. It was ALMOST there with Mason Fine but it was squandered, opportunity after opportunity keep being missed. Until UNT has a marketable face of the team, actually take down P4 opponents and win the conference, the same story will keep repeating itself. UCF had Blake Bortles take them to the Fiesta Bowl and a big run followed by Milton McKenzie beating Auburn. Boise had Kellen Moore, Jared Zanbranski and others followed with wins over Oregon, Georgia, Oklahoma, etc. Cincinatti had a 14-0 run to the Sugar Bowl followed by back to back undefeated runs with Desmond Ridder. Houston had a great 2011 run with Case Keenum where we beat UCLA and Penn State in a January Bowl Game. In 2009 we beat #5 Oklahoma State and Texas Tech back to back. In 2015 with Greg Ward Jr, we went 13-1, beat Louisville, Vanderbilt, ranked Navy, ranked Memphis, ranked Temple in the AAC Championship and Florida State in the Peach Bowl 2016, we had Ward back and Ed Oliver and beat Top 5 Oklahoma and Top 5 Louisville on National TV.

      I’m saying after watching primarily bad North Texas football for going on 27 years, that I’m pretty confident we’re not building a championship calibre program here. I know he’s not going to be let go but I think we’re probably wasting our time and continuing to jade our fans. Would love to be wrong on this. And in the time of NIL/Transfer Portal mercenaries, I think you can make a change pretty much when you want and rebuild a roster. Again, we’re not gonna do it, but we could.

      Right now, on the coaching front, we are missing everything except a running backs coach.

      We already have one, and he gives a ton. Got any other options/quick fixes?
