I think Mean Joe could still start for us at DT!

Has anyone seen his coke commercial from when he was with the Steelers? Classic 70s feel good commercial of him trading with a little kid a coke for a game worn jersey. Love it.

Talking with Coach McCarney at the Plano Coaches Caravan... he mentioned that the team will be in new helmets next year... GREEN helmets. No mention of the logo/graphic/wording on the side of the helmet though.

The helmet mentioned in the photo looks to be GREEN, wit ha white face mask and a single black stripe down the middle.

In the NBC article/vid, at 0:47-0:48 there's a flat green helmet, black facemask with black/white/black stripes and "North Texas" on the side, which we never wore. Might just be another prototype someone stuck on the wall. But with Joe Greene shining up the white facemask version while being filmed, I'm thinking that's the one for Sept. 3.

I was hoping this thread was about a National commercial like the Coke one, not this fake "Commercial" that will be played during halftime when no one is sitting in their seats.

Oh well, I am less excited now.

Great stuff...maybe what Coach Mac can also help to do is to bring "home" many of our ex-players who have "lost" touch a bit with UNT over the years. Hard to listen to the guy without getting fired up about the program. Really glad to see Joe Greene being part of the focus. The guy is a legend indeed.

GO MEAN GREEN! Why Not North Texas, Indeed!

OT: I like to imagine your posts being read by Lawrence.

You guys are lucky McCarney banned the R word.

I'm getting the feeling that our uniforms are going to suck more and more next year.

[Eagle91Gator95]

I can't believe I'm the first person to mention the Texas State University Armadillos helmet on the wall in the equipment room. Mixed in will all the rest. Greatness.

[UNTLifer]

Green P1, why do you think the uniforms will suck?

[Side Show Joe]

They said the commercial will start airing around DFW in June. Have they said which channels will be airing it, or if there are plans to air it in other cities? Is it the first in a series of commercials?
