I think for at least the first two games of the season the student section will sellout. After that its anyones guess who the student body reacts. However, if we get off to a good start I think the student section will be full. While on campus today I saw more students wearing green than I ever had. I believe it has to do with this incoming freshman class, they are really spirited already, the stadium and coach Mac are already paying off.

I was in Denton yesterday and noticed the same thing - as we drove around the campus the number of students wearing Mean Green gear was astounding.

We went to Voertmans as well and numerous students (and their parents) were buying lots of Mean Green gear.

Times - They are a'changing.

I am sure they will be general admission seating but only in selected student sections. I believe I read 8,000 available for students? Once that amount of student tickets are gone Athletic officials would have to decide to open other sections to students...A good problem to have.

Bigger question. Will the issuance of tickets allow those seats to be counted as game day attendance even if the student who got the free ticket doesn't show up?

Isn't $10 a little high to park all the way over at Fouts? How much was it to park at Fouts when the games were played there?

You know...for not much more, one could join the Mean Green Club and qualify for a parking pass while helping to support the program and the student-athletes. The benefits of joining the Mean green Club are very good,and can make real economic sense as well if one sits down and actually puts pen to paper.

There will be plenty of free parking around the area if one doesn't mind walking a bit further.

6 home games = almost exactly a half the cost for a base MGC account. I wonder if you could pay the $60 up front (since you were already planning to come to games anyways) and then prorate the remaining fee into the monthly payments (what would amount to less than $6/month)

Also, do Fouts parking payments go to Athletics, or UNT PD?

Well see here is the deal, since I am a coach I already get 2 free tix to each game, so I dont buy season tickets. But I do want to join the MGC. Is there no other option than parking at Fouts?

Join the MGC and get season tickets anyway. You'll get a parking pass AND you'll be able to invite friends to come to the games with you.

It couldn't hurt to talk to Jon Burkett with the MGC, and see if he can work something out in your special circumstance.

Or you could just do what emmitt01 said, and buy season tickets anyway.

      Sorry, if you don't have an SEC or Big10 patch you're not on any lifeboat.

      blowing out a Q3 team should not matter that much, the predicted metrics had us winning by over 10 anyway. For a top 75 school to move up 10 spots at this point in the season usually takes something significant. Usually other schools need to drop down (Dayton did), also McNeese and has been looking good lately, that could also help.

      Agree with this. Denton has never embraced UNT as "it's" school to support with the town.

      Yes, the local media was really hyping the Blizzard of the Century coming today. I could also tell by the hoarding going on and low stock on shelves at the grocery stores.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      I believe we have had more games without classes in session. If someone has the academic calendar handy for this year and last, I can work up the exact numbers. Knowing we would have more games played during the academic break (and the horrible slate of games the AD put together) is exactly why it was critical for the AD to work extra hard getting the surrounding community to the games. I live too far away to know if they've done anything, but based on the results, I don't know if they have...certainly nothing that's moved the needle. It's like they just take time off when students aren't around. We need the so-called t-shirt fans from in and around Denton. What has the AD done to generate excitement and stimulate demand for the program? Whatever it is, it's been a complete failure IMHO. We have a team and program on the rise. It's WINNING games on a regular basis. Based on the last few years, we had a lot of momentum going into this season and it's been squandered in epic fashion. I doubt they are doing anything and just running out the clock waiting for the students to return so they can continue to do nothing. Here's an idea...It seems Jared enjoys his court-side seat. How about running a "switch seats with the AD" promotion? Each half one lucky attendee is drawn and gets to sit court-side and Jared moves to the cheap seats. Who knows, maybe you only get a handful of extra tickets out of it, but we're moving in the wrong direction.
