I'm a little surprised a team in Alabama would have a uniform that similar to Auburn's (that helmet stripe screams "Auburn"). And that black and white junk on the arms looks awful.

I like the pattern on the arms only because the rest of the uniform is so clean, it adds a little to it.

I'm more surprised that a team like South Alabama, barely moved up to FBS, can get Nike's premier line of uniforms. If they can how can we not?

You would think the merchandising part of our University would put those in the stores to sell, but this is North Texas. Can we just stick with this? This is MILES better than the North Texas

Someone needs to notify their AD that the helmet is not right.

It is supposed to be a blue helmet with "South Alabama" written in white letters.

How the hell did they afford the Flywire jerseys?

What the hell, UNT?

Do we not realize that having the top end jerseys attract better recruits? I like the classic look but Flywire it at least. I would love a modern looking jersey. We'll never get it.

I love the new SA jerseys.

I wouldn't mind our uniforms if they didn't look so cheap from the pics I have seen. I'm talking about quality of the build

Also that the green isn't the right shade and that the numbers and letters aren't screen printed. It must be annoying when the payers sweat.

I do love our white jerseys though

Maybe I'm missing something, but screen printed numbers sweat like hell. No way to breathe. Stitched fabric is the way to go.

Doesn't the NFL use screen printed numbers?

Screen printed numbers, etc. look cheap....sorry.

Agree with ya there.

I don't think there is one uniform that is that great.... we really need to work on that

Authentic NFL jerseys typically have stitched names and numbers.

My mistake then I thought they were screen printed.

My main point is still that if South Alabama a new FBS team can get the top line of Nike uniforms why shouldn't we?

If your gonna call yourself a North Texas Mean Green fan/alumn your gonna have to gain a sick sense of humor like the rest of us and learn to laugh about things you otherwise wouldn't laugh about.

WIth that said, in regards to our uniforms, I like to think of their color as "Freeway Sign" Green.....

....or to put it in a more positive light,..........those are our.....ROAD TO VICTORY!!!!!!!!..... uniforms.

Now tell me I'm a negative nancy? Tell me! :crazysmile:

No matter what, UNT must find a way to fix the chin straps as to not cover part of our school's name for heavens sake. :(

GMG!

      First College Net Rankings released

      😂 I hate revisiting the records and specific games of that era cause it was all such a train wreck. Still should be discussed from time to time when some of our fanbase gets restless with wanting to take the next step as a program. Trying to cement ourselves as a perineal Top 50 program is tough but we’re on the right track. I remember years back @TheTastyGreek putting into perspective how tough achieving a Top 25 ranking in hoops was relative to FBS football back in the day. Too lazy to go dig that up but it really highlighted how difficult it is generally speaking and then layer in what you’re describing above - what UNT has had to overcome from a performance and program perception standpoint.

      Seth loses OU gig

      Oklahoma hired Washington State’s Ben Arbuckle — just 29 — to be its new offensive coordinator yesterday. He takes over for the fired Seth Littrell, whose offenses sputtered in the Sooners’ first SEC season. Meanwhile, Florida Atlantic picked Texas Tech offensive coordinator Zach Kittley, just 33, to replace Tom Herman as head coach. -The Athletic Plus

      If Eric Morris wins a bowl game, will you forgive his past sins?

      I’ll never understand the mental gymnastics some on here do to justify this underperformance? We fired Seth after a Conference USA title game appearance- justifiably - so we would get someone to take the NEXT step that was elusive for his regime. Now we’ve got people making excuses for wasting the first year of Morris’ tenure by mis-reading the personnel that he judged to be “AAC title contenders” and then flopping. Didn’t use the portal well enough to beef up glaring deficiencies. Then brings back the worst, yet somehow highest compensated G5 DC in America for year 2 which led to an inevitable firing that even the most casual of football fans could see coming from a mile away before the season even started. The 2nd year performance was predictable as well, but extra dissapointing given the soft schedule 5-1 start. To end up 6-6 is nearly unforgivable. We’d better win this upcoming Bowl game.

      like how we finished 8-22 in Benford's last season and had a final ranking of 299?? at the time we were a few spots below a couple hospital teams, Detroit Mercy & Sacred Heart. now we're three back of UT https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/seasons/men/2017-ratings.html

      Agreed. But we can all also agree that this is a great jumping off point for UNT in NET. A quality indicator of the program’s overall progress since Grant first arrived. We’ve come a LONG way from the Benford era.
