I didn't get to make it to the SMU game on Saturday, but I did see the pictures.

THE BAND LOOKED GREAT IN GREEN T-SHIRTS!!!! I was critical of the white shirts and the shorts not really matching, but with the green shirts the shorts don't seem like such a big deal. Major kudos to you and the band. I'm sure they sounded great as usual - never an issue there!!!

I have a question. Since it's difficult for a group of that size to find a matching color of khaki, then why don't they go with black? On a side note, the Mississippi State band was wearing Maroon shirts (polo's i think) and black basketball shorts and looked pretty sharp for not being in band uniform.

I be wrong, but the band was probably just told to buy/wear khaki shorts, and each member went with their preferred brand. Every company makes their khaki a different shade. Black shorts would look better with the black socks and shoes, but khaki looks more casual with the t-shirts.

I love our band AND they ALWAYS win the halftime show...but, could we...just could we please...play some "rockin' music" this year? Something that will get the crowd fired up? I know we have a great music school with a big jazz emphasis, but, hey, it's football...let's get some stuff the average joe recognizes and let's rock the house. I recall back in the 70's I think...the band did a STAR WARS themed half time show...even had Darth rising up amoungst a bunch of smoke. Man, the place was rockin' and NO ONE left to go "potty" or get snacks and drinks at half-time.

Also...we have a great drum line...USE THEM!

O.K., that stuff is not a complaint...just a suggestion...as I said...I do not leave at half time at UNT games...our band is the reason...in whatever they are wearing...and I did like the green shirts WAY better than the attire for the OU game. Way to go band!

Let's pump it up and do the "rock the hose" stuff at halftime this year...If I want jazz, I know where I can go to hear great jazz with a cold adult beverage....

But...whatever the band does...I'm there at halftime because it will be way better than what the other team runs out on the field...as eveidence I give you this year's OU and SMU haltimes.

GO MEAN GREEN! Fill Fouts Field!!!!

The band was wearing polo shirts. Nice ones at that. The rainbow flags have got to go... those look great for a band competition but terrible at an actual football game. Also, why do we have a guy on both the flag corp? Actually, I think that there are two. It looks silly.

Well the minute we tell guys they can't be in the flags, some guy will sue. As for the rainbow flags, if that is the best we can do, just elimate the flags. I just don't understand why when we are trying to get our image out there, we can't do school colors.

The drum line put on a great show outside the stadium before the game, between 5:30 and 6:30. You guys need to get there sooner.

Yes, I completely agree.

Made the visitor entrance a bit more NT-like.

Saw it took a photo... will post it later.

      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.
