Hello Owls,

I was wondering what you guys were expecting attendance to be this weekend? Thanksgiving games are always tough, I'll be there but I would not expect more than 200-300 NT fans to make the trip at the very most.

I know this season is tough, but don't get your feathered heads down. Two years ago we ended up with one win, and one of our loses was to an FCS by 59 points. Make one right hire and things can get turned around quickly at our level.

Let's hope there are no injuries this Saturday. Go Mean Green!

Pretty much just the families of the players. 0-10 students. Probably no band? I’d say actual people watching the game will be under 2K.

Announced attendance of at least 17,500. Turnstile attendance somewhere in the 800-1,400 range.

If you bring 200-300, then 201-301.

I'd hope at the bare minimum the 25(0) letter writing folk are there. They procured this bed of manure - the least they should do is sleep in it.

At the same time, just down the street at NRG, there will be a high school playoff game between Cy-Ranch and Katy that will have 10-times the attendance .... at least.

We did get an athletic department e-mail offering Black Friday ticket specials for the North Texas football game at 50% off, starting at 9:00 am. You can get to ticket sales through http://www.riceowls.com.

Hasn’t anyone told you? It isn’t the coach....it’s lack of resources for the coach!

Leebron and the entire BOT should be forced to sit on the east side upper deck the entire game so that can witness what their plausibly deniable neglect has wraught without cell phones or peasants to wait on them hand and foot. They can only leave their seats for bathroom breaks and have to walk down to lower deck.

I heard the Turkey Trot participants had a free North Texas football game ticket voucher in their race packet?

Gotta get creative to inflate the "tickets sold" numbers.
