my God man, take your tamu kneepads off and let it go. are you sumlin's mother or something?

Don't know Sumlin or his mother. Don't have any tamu kneepads. Do live in Austin where all they spew is Longhorn propaganda and Aggie hate. When I was living in DFW, I hated the Sooners, once I moved to Austin I learned to loathe the horns.

Sounds like cr1080 is a run of the mill North Texas diploma holder and a UT/ATM/etc. t-shirt wearer.

You can kiss my ***. I was wearing mean green gear in public and traveling to away games when you were still in middle school. Don't you dare accuse me of being a Tshirt fan while I'm living in the Tshirt fan capital of the world.

I'm glad we have fans like you to keep us in check so we don't let UT be perceived like A&M. One school has a discipline problem for having to throw guys off the team and the other school has a strong coach for having to throw guys off the team.

Whoa!!! Calm down aggie-lover!

You may have been wearing mean green gear, but you never did let anyone see your undies. Did you?

Maybe you had something to hide. Maybe, it was because of your maroon undies!

I rest my case.

So is Joe Bergeron off or on the team? I have heard he was dismissed but then in one article it says he is "back in the mix"?

At Big 12 media days Charlie Strong was asked about Bergeron and at the time Coach Strong said he did what was asked of him and was back in the mix. A few days later he is off the team. No idea about why the 180.

Chip Brown had on his twitter account that Coach Strong recently administered a drug test to the players. I'm guessing that's the reason for most of these guys getting cut. Apparently repeat offenders. Could be 5 more guys who get some type of discipline. Edited by Mean_Green09

Anyways. I hope you guys get to come down to the UT game early and listen to some Austin sports radio. You will feel the total disrespect and disregard that I get to experience on a daily basis. People around here either tease me for being a NT fan or just flat out disregard it because we are not important to college football. My boss comments weekly on how I wear a green shirt nearly every day. I'm the only person I've ever seen wearing a North Texas lanyard too. I'm used to it now but I still represent because in my own little mind I believe a recruit will see me running around Austin in NT gear and realize we are known outside of DFW and commit to us.

There is a Mean Green oasis right in your own backyard friend. Tis called The Silo on 7th (1300 E. 7 St) Mean Green owned and operated. Scrappy even nests in the dining area. We may be outnumbered come Aug. 31 but we will most certainly own the top of the hill on East 7th. Come one. Come all.

Thanks. I think I may take co-workers there for lunch when I get back from vacation. I didn't realize they did lunch. I thought it was just a night bar and I have kids so night bars don't fit in the schedule anymore.

Sounds like a good meeting place for August 29th for those making a weekend out of it.

Good for a post-win after party?

      How’s That Feel?

      And still lost. Glad he got his first TD in week 5. Next.

      The Answer is Marketing....

      Milestone Electric had $80 million in revenue in 2020 and $150 million in 2022. This per The Successful Contractor podcast which the owner was on in 2020 and 2022. To the original topic, winning cures all for sure. Something I wonder is if recent college graduates are working more on the weekends than previous generations. Either way, we need consistent high-level winning. My kids know UNT. I'm sure everybody else here has raised their kids around UNT. How many alumni were raised as fans of traditional power programs and will raise their kids as such despite going to UNT themselves? Have a few 10+ win seasons and maybe lifelong fans will be made of our current students. One things for sure, you can't have 1 bowl win in 20 years and zero 10+ win seasons in your history and expect people to care. The program needs better results on a consistent basis.

      This but make it a magnet with the schedule on the front. Who doesn't need more magnets on the fridge to hold their kid's latest artwork?

      Vandy takes down Bama

      I wonder if he'd convert to WR. We've seen an increasing number of vertically challenged QBs in the NFL these past few years though so maybe he can stay at QB. I think he'll get looks regardless.

      "Where Are The Fans?"

      Haven’t seen this mentioned, but once again…… We started the season out pretty well. Got some local and national attention, to the point we were a trendy pick. “Tech better watch out!” Reece Davis on ESPN Game Day picked us as his “superdog”. We were starting to turn a corner regarding perception. And not only do we get beat, we got absolutely destroyed on national TV. Outclassed, out coached, out played and embarrassed. We were taking a few steps forward only to get hit in the face ONCE AGAIN and get launched back to what many think is our rightful place. How many people paying attention to our game vs TTech didn’t even bother to look at the schedule to see our next games much less make plans to show up. This probably happened about halfway through the 2nd quarter of that game. We are in a situation where we have no room for error. When you’re in this situation, no amount of marketing can overcome getting embarrassed like we were in Lubbock. We had our chance. Blew it. so this comment from the article: “He’s held up his end of the bargain.” depends on the lens we use and the standard we apply. if we use the standard of “holy crap it’s a miracle we’re 4-1 and we never do this” then Yes, he’s held up his end of the bargain. And yes. This start is the exception not the norm. But if we want the casual fans to show up, that standard won’t work. So if we use the standard of “we need to be ranked or pushing the top 25 and knocking on the door of the playoff. Getting national attention getting national credibility” which WILL get the casual fan to show up, then Eric Morris’s performance in Lubbock means he did NOT hold up his end of the bargain. The coach at UNT, whoever it is, cannot have it both ways.
