Yep during their CFB go around they probably spent at least half the segment talking about the NT game and the whole homecoming experience. A bunch of their friends from school flew here for the game,

What a way to ruin homecoming for me.

Seriously? He damages the university he attended? Since when has he put his university down? I've never ever heard him dis this university. In fact he does pull for UNT and frequently talks about

I will never understand how the same people who complain about lack of faithful attendance have strong negative feelings about someone attending a game.

Can't say I understand how people can graduate from one university and then claim SPORTS allegiance to another, but I'm certainly glad to welcome their return (no matter how long-term or passionate it may be).

That said, I'm sure those who have strong opinions have worthwhile reasons/experiences for holding to them.

illl take this as a sign that hopefully MANY others are following in the same steps as Junes... isn't this what we want? alums who have been indifferent or even negative towards the program to come back and realize what's here?

He can go back to being gone.

Funny how people say rubbish like this when turnout is good, but will complain about the small crowd when it isn't.

You can't have it both ways. I prefer it the way it is now.

Yep. Now is not the time to get high an mighty and try to exclude people for the 'club' just because they have not been here since the beginning.

Not the way it works if you want to increase tshirt sales.

Come one come all. There is PLENTY of room on the bandwagon.

I've never once complained about small crowds. Apathy is one thing. Going out of your way to damage the university that educated you is another. He can stay gone and never speak about UNT again. Out of all the complete garbage that is sometimes spewed on this sight, that's what is called rubbish?

Yes we all wish he was a bigger NT homer but he is still integral to probably the best sports talk show ever. And we still have George. The Junes is awesome.

George had him on the half time show and I thought he did great. He was all UNT. In fact he has been coming around for a while.

It's pretty easy. People grow up around one team or live in an area and grow up around it only to graduate from another school.

In fact he does pull for UNT and frequently talks about the great times he had as a student here. I can also guarantee that when they do their CFB talk on Tuesday he'll mention the NT game and how he was at the game and had a great time. Be proud and happy that he was at the game. We can't and should not make any enemies at this point especially when we historically have terrible attendance and apathy at NT.

Glad he is back. I'm sure we will hear a segment on UNT homecoming on The Ticket Monday morning.

You know, the same radio station that dominates its competition in the male 24-55 demographic. The exact demographic we need to reach to increase attendance and interest in the program.

Welcome aboard, Junior. Hope you stay awhile. Drop by my tailgate for some KFC next game.

I really wish we could figure out a way to get the morning/afternoon drive shows on campus for weekday games when they occur. That would have been awesome to have them broadcasting from campus for the Rice game. Not sure what the cost is for a live remote, but guessing $3k-4k per show?

It's not cheap but the publicity would be great for the school. I think next year could be a real good possibility.

Would have loved to have seen the Hardline do their show from the alumni pavilion Friday night. You could have advertised it on campus and opened up the pavilion to the students, encouraging them to treat it like it was ESPN Gameday. It is as close as we will get to that for quite some time.

Would have been a nice build up to the bonfire Friday night, and the advertising to the exact demographic that you need would FAR offset the cost for the remote.
