These windmills as such....and the new name for the stadium/park....The WIN Mill.

so the paper can say....North Texas hammered SMU at the WIN MILL yesterday in front of 29,200 fans.

This bothers me. :unsure:

It's bad enough that UNT has fallen for this boondoogle of a project. Please don't compound it by having the stadium name have anything to do with it.

I assumed you were referring to Coach Canales before I noticed your user name.

But GMG.

Why are so many people against the idea of having wind generators next to the stadium? Depending on how big they are (how much of an eye sore they are) it might not be that big of a deal, plus it will bring UNT a lot of positive publicity for "going green", especially since our stadium is LEED certified.

agreed....if they are going to put them in, capitalize on them...there is soooooo much group think on this board!

Hot Air Family Stadium.....If there is not already enuf' of that already on GMG.com, the turbines will supply the rest.

OK, go ahead, start the attack now on that one! LOL

Seriously, Mean Green Stadium until we find a corporate sponsor.

We might as well try to capitalize because you know our opponents will. I can hear/smell multiple variations on the breaking wind theme already.

I like it.

WIN MILL STADIUM

Yep. I like it.

Although I still like RV PARK

I understand the pun with RV Park, and it is funny, but in all seriousness, it should not be named after RV unless he is either dead, or a large donation is contingent upon that name like the Darrel R. Dickey Practice Fields. I know Darrel Royal is not dead, and his name is on the UT stadium, but at the very least it should not be named after RV while he still works here.

Good Lord! Are we going to grind corn at the stadium also? It's bad enough putting turbines next to the stadium but if we are going to use them for mills as well count me out.

At this point the only real question to answer is if we will have the ability to manipulate the flow of air. Can’t you see our 80 yard field goals and our opponents struggling on extra points…. Sweet.

Can we paint them with words on the tower base or the fan blades? I have never seen those fly so fast that you can make out the words!

Or how about Beat X banners - we could hang them all week as good publicity for the upcoming tilt. We could even recycle our conference mates - hey that is GREEN, right? Create a Beat Indiana, Beat the Coogs...

      Fun bowl games, not quite so fun playoff games. Maybe there's still something to be said for the bowl games after all.

      It will take some time for the fans of these schools to adjust to losing a few games a year when they're in the new "P2" consisting of maybe 40 teams max. However, filling an average 80k stadium for maybe 20 games/wk is only about 1.5M people demanding tickets for each week's game. Out of over 300M people, I suspect they can still keep filling the stands, other than the few days of "dud" games or bad weather. Now, I'm not sure about TV ratings, but there's so many T-shirt fans of these top 40 schools that I think they'll still watch. I hope this greed and the extreme powering of the top few schools ends up biting them in the a$$, but I'm afraid they'll be successful. I don't mind them breaking away, I just wish they'd be forced to give up any relation to the school. Go create a stand-alone semi-pro league independent of the universities. I haven't followed pro sports in decades, but my quick check shows the Cowboys have been varying between 6-9 and 13-3 for the past 20 years with minimal playoff success but from what I hear, they have plenty of demand for tickets, even when they suck. I realize they are a somewhat special team, but then again, so are these P2 teams, so I think the comparison is reasonably legit.

      Lot of fun bowl games so far. Toledo vs Pitt last night was incredible. This was another great game as well.

      Portal QB Emmet Brown - San Jose St

      Think this is staff trying to balance the QB Room out Have a 1 year starter, plus solid backup, the back up plays Sr Year while Jimmerson is the back up. Then after a few years to develop Jimmerson is ready to rock. I think Jimmerson may win the job as a RS Freshman over this guy. But it provides you with some solid QB play for competition as well as depth.

      You don't have to, but the reality is that is where this is headed.
