Nice to know our FRB foes do this the proper way!

I'm sure some will attack me for this but, I think if you are a UNT fan and can make it you should go. I want to be there to support the kids that ARE staying and want to play for the Mean Green. I always think we have a chance to win, but this year, I just feel like these players deserve to have some fans in green at the game regardless of the outcome. GMG!

Doubt teasips had anything to do with it. It was completely aggy. It had something to do the being the Land Grant institution. They dropped the restriction when we pivoted to NT brand and the institution just down the road from their hated tu wanted to try it. Our location (DFW) likely played a major factor in suppressing the attempt.

What will you do to celebrate winning a bowl game?

This is where the G5s and FCS need to go. Contracts for NIL, just like you have contracts for coaches. If you leave for the portal, you owe the $$$ back for the contract not fulfilled, including cost of attendance, stipends, and the remaining NIL. The NIL is something this old guy doesn't like, but I get it and accept it. The portal is my line in the sand. As long as it stays as it is, my interest and support of the sport has dwindled considerably. I'm not alone--and my generation of men are the ones who have disposable income and resources that are now being used in different ways. College football had been trending in the wrong direction for me for awhile, particularly in value for money spent and time spent at a game. But at least I knew that the kids made a commitment to stay at UNT for the majority of their college career. Following Mason Fine was incredible as a fan. He is non-duplicable in today's world, as he would get bought by anyone else up the food chain after one season of doing anything of note on the field. I recognize that the reality is that UNT and the rest of the G5s will just accept their place under the table of the P4s and fight for scraps and crumbs. And its why my decision to walk away from attending games in 2023 has been the best financial decision I've made in years.
