I'll take the tight end with three names who came from the yankee school that cut its football program and forced him to come down here and be taught winning football by Coach Mike "Chico" Canales.

yep, you know "old what's his name".... :lol: Would that be our one semester rent-a-player? Man, I hope he tears it up and has a great season and remembers UNT as the school that gave him the opportunity (and scholarship) to finish out his career in grand style. And, then when he becomes a multi-millionaire that he remembers UNT with some nice donations in thanks for giving him the scholarship and the opportunity.

You know, I actually get, and am somewhat sympathetic to, the concern over the mercenary nature of the player in question. But, if he consistently seals off a side of the line, throws some hellacious blocks on an edge rusher, and catches 50+ balls and 8+ scores this year, he can do what the heck he wants with his money in the future and it'll be a wash as far as I'm concerned. Blount spoiled us with high expectations. Blame him.

      They ran a video at every game of Jared asking people to give to the "Light the Tower" collective.

      Chandler UVA???

      Were we really more negative about Rogers leaving? Sorry, I don't see what @Cooley sees, but maybe I have forgotten some after a year. Regarding some collective donor being pissed Poffenberger isn't starting next year, that's your gamble when you donate to a collective. I pray that they aren't being promised a starting job as it should always go to the most talented, deserving young man.

      Recognition: Thanks MG Teams

      I dont respond much, but I read your posts. Easy for people to point out problems, a loss, holes in defense or missed buckets, etc. Yet, the teams have really stepped up lately. We may have lost a few but i see the hustle and grit. And that impresses me. Ladies BBall broke down in 4th Q, but found a way to win against Memphis. Playing well in the AAC thus far. 11-4 and 3-0 in conf. looks nice. Mens BBall lost to Memphis, but played with heart. Sissoko, Newell and Walker in particular. Great effort. I also think Floyd managed the game, solid performance at the point. Football - I didnt know what to expect in the bowl game. Great effort. I am in Austin and wearing the logo on consistent basis. received a lot of input from others after that game. Stinks to come close and lose, same as with the last Boise game in Frisco. But proud of the team. So THANKS MEAN GREEN !!! Looking forward to Soccer, Softball and Diving/Swimming, Golf, etc.

      Attendance question

      Here's my take on the First Responders Bowl. * I thought they did a fantastic job honoring first responders from all lines of work throughout the game. Very impressive presentation for people that deserve to be recognized. * Location isn't terrible and Ford Stadium is fine, but I had to shower four times to remove the SMU stench. * Concessions were pretty good although it would have been nice to know if advance that they were not accepting cash. * Would have been nice to have First Responder Bowl souvenir cups instead of the stupid "Pony Up" cups. Nobody's taking those home. * Nice taking the train, walking over and then getting out quickly. This was managed well by whoever is in charge of getting people from the station safely across Central Expressway. * In spite of all of the above, $100 plus for sideline seats to this bowl/matchup was ridiculous.

      Attendance question

      The anecdotal evidence I heard from people was that it was "too expensive" and "not an impressive matchup" or "we are just going to lose"
