Get post Emmit, but unfortunately i will not be able to make the game. If anyone has family that is coming in and they want to go to the game I have four reserved seats in section F. No charge for the tickets just email me if you are interested at jeff.cantrell@freemanco.com.

Tickets are gone!

Emmitt mentioned three of the outstanding players from this senior class but it made me think of others who also had their moments and deserve to be sent out with a bang. So here's the seniors that we are honoring Saturday:

4 Brandon Monroe LB Electra

11 Deavin Cox DB Dallas

20 Jamario Thomas RB Longview

24 Roderick Cotton DB Nacogdoches

38 Aaron Weathers DB Bonner Springs KS

41 Maurice Holman LB Mount Vernon

45 Cliff Higgs DB Sanger

49 Brandon Jackson WR Sugar Land

50 Lawrence Brown LB Houston

51 Derek Mendoza LB Hereford

70 Brian Carlson OT Spring

74 Adam Venegas OT Olathe KS

79 Montey Stevenson DT Alvarado

89 Blake Burruss DE Oklahoma City

90 Jeremiah Chapman DE China Springs

97 Raifu Durodoye DE Denton

There were others that left the program early but these 16 all lettered and contributed to the best of their ability. A tip of the Mean Green hat to all.

As I posted earlier, a crowd of 16,355 would give us an average of 20,000 for the season; something that would really make a statement for a 1-9 team. I'd like to see that as the low-water mark for a Todd Dodge coached team at North Texas.

See you Saturday!

I would love to be there, but I am in Odessa, TX and will not be coming back until Sunday. You guys have a good time and enjoy the win.

Dadgummit, after seeing all of those names, I began to tear up...

Good Luck Seniors!!!

Dang, we are losing some good defensive football players!

Yep, 12 of the 16 are on the defensive side of the ball. Six of those were starters at the beginning of the year.

We'll be okay, we have a great staff that will go out and replace them.

Also, these seniors are the last to know Andrew Smith, either through a redshirt year or Spring/Summer practices.
