It was a joke,UNT90. Take your AM chill pill because you're already getting in your "me against the world" or your "me be opposite of what everyone else posts" mode much too early. GMG!

Its typical SMU fandom talk, but they aren't going to get out of the series for at least the first two years, probably the first four years as well.. They'll need the gate that a home game against UNT

How the hell can you look down at someone when your in a valley and the school your attempting to look down upon is on top a mountain?

Or is it more a case of.... :surrender: :surrender: :surrender: :surrender: :surrender:

If by "we", you mean "I", then ok.

I want this game to happen. The worse we can make them look the better it is for our recruiting.

It's probably too late to drop 2014 game, but I would not be surprised to have them cancel the remainder of the series due to "conference scheduling problems."

And if they decide to do that then let them. They're just another game in my opinion. As long as we're taking care of our business SMU does not really ever enter my conscience until I see constant threads about them on GMG.

It would be grossly short sighted on their part to drop the series. A rising tide lifts all ships. SMU, TCU and NT need to play one another every year. Make metroplex football THE FOOTBALL in the state.

Then the "Safeway" parking lot argument would be verified and make them look like Cowards. All DFW peeps should support the local programs....this includes the Pro teams.

Ha ha ha.... bow to the Talon!!! Go Mean Green. I thought the whole idea was play teams that were better than you to improve your system.

Isn't that why we try to play UT, OU and similar games every year? Funny to think of UNT on the other side of a "body-bag" game... but hey... I LIKE it!!! :thumbsu:

If the money is right I can see Villareal letting them out of the series...after all, it's all about the money.

I lied. If SMU gives us enough money to buy out of the series that we can pay Danny Mac enough to keep him from ever leaving, then let's do that.

There is no reason for them to get out of our series except the fear that we will kick their asses on a regular basis and thus, win the recruiting war. They understand very well who the real team in the metroplex is and it ain't them. I want to play them because it's an easy travel game and will generate local interest. Other than that, screw them. Let's play them, cause we own em a few.

      What did you pay? I thought individual sessions would be $20-25, and now I'm seeing resale tickets via AAC website for < $10.

      UNT enrollment declining

      I'm sure the Master's programs that UNT is seeing enrollment drops in are the university's top profit center. Their student population probably uses the least amount of on-campus resources during the program compared to undergrads and PhDs, and they're probably overpaying or seeing less student aid usage to be in the programs. The flip side of the coin is that it's entirely possible that people are starting to realize that employers don't really care about Master's level paper as much as they did 20+ years ago. As the state of the world is going this week, if there is a prolonged economic downturn and a depressed hiring market for undergrads, most universities generally see an uptick in kids graduating and keeping on with it into a Master's program. I would advise undergrads that they're lighting money on fire, but if you can't find a job or start paying on loans, it can seem like a real option to keep learning. Will it result in a higher level of pay once they first time enter the workforce? Probably not, especially in today's world of AI threatening lower entry-level jobs, and H-1Bs threatening the rest. But the average Gen X parents will still push University degrees as a solution to all their unemployed kids' problems, just like the Boomer parents did before them.

      Speakeasy Scrappy Hour

      Great bar environment and even better seafood restaurant next door. If you want a killer Italian Meat sandwich, arrive early enough to get one from Enzo's next door. Points if you sneak it into the Wilfred. 😅 Kudos to getting them to change the door pincode. I think it had been set to the year of Woodstock since the Wilfred opened.

      Coach O to Texas State

      Is it lateral if: TX State goes to the PAC-Reboot with one other AAC Team that isn't us Memphis and USF go to the ACC UTEP is in Mountain West We're suddenly playing Sam Houston and Tarleton State in a combined AAC-USA? That's nightmare fuel for me, and seems entirely possible if Mosley keeps on Mosleying along with status quo.
