Yeah, Derek probably feels the same way.

Just having fun with you. I tried. You know. Life lessons. Blah, blah, blah. Any chance you see even the slightest correlation your elephant in the room post where you tear down our starting QB and question his contributions to the team? When I turned it around and posed the same premise back to you, you go ballistic. Interesting... Point made.

Oh well. It appears the point has been completely missed. Sigh. Go MF'in Green. #hit30k! I will be there +3.

For the record, I canceled research trips so my grad students can go to the game. I am also giving makeup points to students demonstrating they attended the game. This worked nicely last week. GMG!

Hey meangreener, I saw the WFAA Channel 8 piece on UNT's Homecoming. There was a student on their that used your rallying cry of "Hit 30k". That was awesome. Your efforts have definitely had an impact. Way to take the initiative.

I couldn't believe he said that! Was so awesome! Thanks. Can't believe this caught on.

Wow.

I'm gonna take the high road here.

Considering I've worked my ass off for this, I'm a little offended though. Are you the Free Food @ UNT guy? Complained that I "stole" his idea? Would you like it if I came to your job or hobby and said you sucked at it?

Keep it to yourself.

I don't think you understand what my campaign is about. Considering the AD supports me, I could care less what you think.

So...

This is the high road?

A little advice. When you have done a good job, let others sing your praises.

I get that meangreener has been beating the drum on attendance, but when you look at it, the team has been doing most of the work and he has just been in the right place at the right time and going along for the ride.

lol cool story bro. you jelly?

I'm really starting to think Cougar Queen has fake accounts under UNT90 and greenit.

Which is why he should let the haters hate.

Little Meangreener has done an outstanding job, no matter how many people he has Internet insulted along the way.

There is no denying that fact.

So back to attendance...any updates on how sales ended today? I agree there will be more walk up than usual, even for homecoming. They should take 500 wing zone tickets and hand them out on the square.

I like that idea, throw out tickets with the candy from the Homecoming parade floats.

our boys are worth more than the price of admission. Anyone buying a ticket is getting a steal as-is already. no free tickets

Agreed, but if the seats are available why not. Just for this game, just to try to boost attendance as high as it can. Expose some people to a highly attended game. Get some Dentonites and alums in there for homecoming that may not have attended otherwise. Isn't a better time to do it.

I'm not sure how it is now but my buddy who is an alum there said that as of a couple of years the students at TT could get into the game for free with a student ID.

Through the mid 2000s that's how we did it. They had hand-held ID scanners at the gates. The problem was that they went down so often, they'd end up just having you flash your ID without knowing if you were a current student or not. Probably part of the reason they went to the physical tickets.

Considering I've worked my ass off for this, I'm a little offended though.

I agree with the later posts, I think it's the combination of hard work and good timing. If you tried this during the Dodge years (could Fouts even hold 30K?) you would have been sorely disappointed. But with this year being huge, it's a good time to strike and go for it. If 30K people show up to one game, we could see that pay off in residuals for years to come with our average attendance continuing to grow. Good that everybody is joining their efforts together AND that the AD is behind you on this as well. I think it's a good thing you're doing here. Don't let the bastards grind you down.

If every student on campus were half as charged as mean greener is, we wouldn't have to worry about attendance.

Hell yes. But also we can appreciate the progress. 15 years ago, I know attendance wasn't as bad as it seems in my head, but it really felt like there were only a few dozen students at most games, and maybe a couple dozen at basketball games. Though I do think there were some women's games where there were literally about 5 of us, and that was during the Jalie Mitchell/Rosalyn Reades/Empress Drane/Shannon Stephenson period.

Yes, it could officially hold 30,500. Not that it ever did. I can believe it though, there were plenty of end zone seats people could spill into. They were just rarely needed.

Honestly, thanks. Sorry if I didn't take you serious/come off like an asshole. Trust me, I'm far nicer in person. Seriously though, thanks for the compliments. Let's go Mean Green!

I saw where section 205 is sold out. That's great! I hope those seats will be full with Mean Green fans ready to make lots of noise.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
