Man, all this band controversy stuff on a sports board; I just I should be happy now to at least have a minor in music from North Texas, and to sing in the church choir. Reminds me of something I read once about the three main controversies at churches; the choice of music, the temperature at which the temperture is set, and I can't remember the other one.

I know. I'm quit upset that I've been reduced to concerning myself with another team's marching band, because our program is so far removed from the action. How have we fallen so far? Where did it all go wrong? How will we turn it around?

So educate me. Other than beating us every time they've played us, what is it about FAU that brings such ire among the Mean Green Nation?

Well considering how well they've done in the 10 years or so of playing D-1 football (we've been playing since 1914) my ire is directed at our historically inept (regarding athletics) administrators rather than FAU.

I guess other people can't clearly identify the real people that their ire should be directed at, so they direct it at FAU.

Oldguy,

Schnellenberger is pretty straightforward. People here don't like that. After they beat us again this year, he said they didn't do anything special or different to account for Casey Fitzgerald.

Some thought that was haughty. The rest of us actually took is for what it was - a guy with six decades of coaching in the pros and college saying how easy it was to figure out what a high school coach's gameplan was going to be that day.

He just says stuff which bothers people here. No big deal. Many of us do as well. Truth hurts at times - especially when those times include 2-10 and 1-11 seasons back-to-back. But, it's not Schnellenberger's fault that our AD and administration didn't have enough sense to hire a college football coach a couple of years ago. He just gets to take advantage of it.

      Rule Changes to NCAA Football

      If I am not mistaken, the NFL deducts sack yardage from passing stats. It may give a more accurate picture of rushing and passing offense. It doesn’t change total offense.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      As in, right now? If a school leaves and we need a replacement, I see them as a solid candidate. But I don't think we need to add them just to add them.

      I think they would be a solid addition and a fun road trip for both us, Rice and nUTSAck.

      Rule Changes to NCAA Football

      Hate thinking that we need more rules but something they have to address is the players that are faking injuries bro slow down the momentum of another team and the ones that are just straight out flopping onto the ground to try and get a penalty thrown against the other team.

      Mean Green Host Rice Wednesday Night

      DENTON – The UNT men’s basketball team hosts American Athletic Conference undefeated Rice Owls Wednesday night at the Super Pit. The Mean Green (10-4, 1-1) and Owls (11-4, 2-0) are scheduled to tip-off at 8 p.m. CT. The game will be broadcast on the Mean Green Sports Network, presented by Learfield and on ESPNU. UNT has won the last two meetings against Rice and eight of the last 10. Wednesday will be the first time the two teams have played in Denton since 2023. The Owls are under the leadership of veteran head coach Rob Lanier who is in his first season as Rice’s head coach after serving as SMU’s head coach from 2022-24 where last year he led the Mustangs to a 20-win season and split their series against North Texas. Lanier also served as the head coach at Georgia State (2019-22) and Siena (2001-05). Rice enters Wednesday’s game having won its first two league games of the year. They opened with a 70-64 road win over Tulsa on New Year’s Day and a 68-55 home win over Charlotte on Saturday. After Wednesday night’s game the Mean Green have a six-day break before facing East Carolina on the road on Jan. 14.
