...the National Chamber of Commerce? :bow:

After TCU goes east, they will not be hosting a MWC bowl game--neither will CUSA member SMU.

In this era of "green" UNT will most definitely have a "green" worthy stadium for the first time in our history with wind turbines in the distance showing all that American spirit of "can do" as most American cities Chamber's of Commerce all promote. Our bowl would be just as large as Boise's Humanitarian Bowl, too.

UNT and city/county officials from Greater Denton/Denton County, respectively, meet with MWC Commissioner Craig Thompson and tell them we can get the right Texas-based Fortune 500 company to co-sponsor this along with the Nat'l C of C and our tremendous major airport access to our new football palace and with UNT as a "new" Mountain West Conference member/host school :rolleyes: would be more than honored to take up the slack the Horned Frogs leave behind as they go Big East. (SMU's cracker box location with no access or legit parking will probably get them out of the bowl business sooner than later and what the heck......and, after all, Dallas already has the Cotton Bowl game). :)

Why not? In 1986 if anyone would have told most of us that it would take TCU having to lose membership in a soon to be defunct Southwest Conference (with no Big 12 invite) and after all that would become a Top 10 ranked school who would also host a MWC bowl game in Fort Worth, Texas, and then they have a pending date in the Rose Bowl--most of us would have thought that as crazy & insane as most on this board will think the theme of this thread but............we cannot move up till we start thinking up. (Of course, MWC membership for UNT is the main hook for any of this to happen--but still look back at TCU and ask yourself the question: "What is it that cannot be done in the NCAA upper statusphere any longer by even a school that Frank Broyles called a "have not")?

What the heck, the other threads were getting a bit worn the last few days and I still need some more red numbers to meet my goal. :rolleyes:But let us not forget that this new stadium was instrumental in allowing us to schedule our first ever Big 10 school in UNT history this Fall before we start falling back into our pattern of thinking what cannot be done in Denton. Let's think forward and try to forget all the things that made us appear backwards.

GMG!

And new UNT HFC Bill McCarney used this in his opening speech to our constituency quoting a favorite of his which was: "I dream things that never were and say why not. ...(Robert Frances Kennedy)

so....Why Not UNT? Why Not Greater Denton? Why Not Denton County? Why Not the MWC?

Now it's time for the meds... :thumbsu:

GMG ! !
