What the hell is Garnet?? If it is a shade of pink, it's still pink.

Don't Church it up, Son!

Not a shade of pink. Try a quick google search broski. :D. Its more like maroon. It is just one of our fraternity colors, but like I said, I told them to wear green!

Emmit, we do still have the North Texas Greeks shirts, but they are completely generic, no individual letters on them. Last year we tried to make green "North Texas Pikes" shirts to wear to athletic events, but the University would not let us becuase of licensing problems.

Garnet is Florida State's official team color. I think I'd rather the greeks wear UF blue. Its just prettier.

The only fraternity that might be wearing garnet is Pi Kappa Alpha, the one I am in. The reason for this is because it is an alumni event and we want to stand out to alumni...I advised against this, saying it would be better to wear green, but I am not the president. Nevertheless, almost our whole fraternity will be there, and so will many alumni!

If we can match the 4500 we had on Saturday, I'll be thrilled. Those elementary kids really boosted our numbers, and they cheered and waved and got into the game way more than I expected.

I'm coming, and on top of the usuals, we're bringing at least 3 people who've never come to an NT basketball game before.

The university does not have a trademark or patent on any shade of "green"...it's a color...if you want to create a green shirt that says "North Texas Pikes"...DO IT! Who did you ask and why?????

I think it's a great idea, by the way.

Why not do a green oxford shirt with your Greek logo and the wording "North Texas Pike"? Sounds like a great idea to me...I'll bet it would spread to other frats as well...

I am still wondering who told you "no" and how they think they have the authority to do that as long as you are not utilizing the "official" UNT logo without permission.

And...even if you wanted the "official" logo...why not? You are a recognized student organization and the UNT logo is on a ton of stuff! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

dang, i thought going for 3 might be pushing it

it gets easier when you and your wife switch from a man to man coverage to a zone defense. Just watch the perimeter and make sure no one escapes and you will be fine

I am not sure who told us that, It was right when we came on campus in 2007. But we were just about to make the shirts when we were told we could not put "North Texas" on them. I know that makes no sense but that is what happened. Maybe we just should have done it without asking...I'll let the guy who gets out t-shirts made know that we should be able to make them.

I'm wearing three layers of clothes because I wanted to have my current lucky NT shirt and long-sleeve combo on under my regular generic work green-button down shirt so I could head straight for the game without changing.

All this spirit is making my nipples itch.

      MAC BROWN

      I don’t think Mack Brown’s the answer here either, but let’s not pretend McCarney is anywhere near Brown in terms of head coaching success. Brown would be a huge upgrade.

      The Band

      Our oldest is in the Oklahoma State band. They seem to focus on the entertainment more than anything else. The last halftime show had them playing “Bye Bye Bye” by NSYNC. Their pregame is just the fight song, Oklahoma, and a stand tune. Then they wait around while special guests lead the in game chants. In game playing is fun. They play iron man, dies irae, stuff like that. They play off the DJ better than we do. There’s usually no playing over eachother, though it does happen. The quality is fine. They have a new director. Last years quality was lacking.

      Kicking has been bad, punting is average at best, and we allowed the onside kick against UTSA. Those are my main complaints. There's only about 25 teams (quick count) that have allowed a kickoff return for a TD and we're one of them. Special teams certainly wasn't a weapon this year which to me means it has the potential to be a problem. Regarding Morris being aggressive because the defense is bad, I just disagree. I'll refer to the Navy game last year going for it on 4th and goal on the first drive. It was game 5 of his tenure. He did it again on the first drive against Memphis last year. Two games we lost by 3 where he passed up the field goal attempt on the first drive of the game all within his first 7 games. If he didn't trust the defense that much 7 games in to his coaching career here but yet kept Caponi for year 2, that's a fireable offense on his own. Now to EM acting as an OC and not HC, this is his 6th year as a division 1 head coach. Are we really making this excuse for him? Honestly all of this makes me wish he'd get an OC job somewhere and leave.

      Until they all portal out. Sorry, the program is stronger and survives longer than the individual parts.
