In keeping with UNT’s vision of being an environ-mentally friendly campus, construction crews have beg u n i nsta l l i ng t h ree wind turbines near Apogee Stadium.

The three wind turbines will stand 125 feet tall with a blade length of 30 feet. The turbines will feed the electrical grid that provides power to UNT’s new football stadium and other buildings.

UNT installs wind turbines near Apogeecarbon dioxide from being emitted annually into the atmosphere. The turbines are also necessary for the stadium to maintain its LEED certifi-cation and will power about one-third of the stadium and about 6 percent of the Eagle Point campus.

Lauren Helixon, assistant director of operations for the Office of Sustainability and project manager, said the $1 million turbines were paid

for by a grant from the State Energy Conservation Office.

“In the summer of 2010, we received the initial grant for $200,000,” Helixon said. “It was used to conduct a visi-bility study in which we made sure it was a viable idea and account for potential nega-tives. Once we returned that to the state, we were able to receive the full $2 million.”

The turbines themselves cost about $1 million, with

the second million used for construction costs and other fees, Helixon said, adding that the return on investment wil l be surpassed because the turbines are funded by a grant.

“That, in conjunction with the design of the stadium and the new buildings UNT is constructing to be energy-eff icient, will signif icantly reduce energy costs,” she said. “At some point, the turbines

will pay for themselves. They have about a 25-year lifespan before major repa i rs a re needed.”

A f ter t he t u rbi nes a re constructed, they must go through a commissioning process to ensure they are safe and work properly. The turbines are expected to be finished in a few weeks and functioning by Dec. 31.

Newly appointed secretary Emily Pierce and sergeant at arms Marcos Torres make ballots to vote on a new speaker. Senator Morgan Ray took Charles Vincent’s position as speaker.

Despite a 31-point ef fort from freshman guard Chris Jon e s , t h e Me a n G r e e n basketba l l tea m ca me up short in its f irst road game of the season at Texas Tech on Wednesday.

UNT (1-1) absorbed a 10-0 second half Texas Tech run to pull to within 1 point late in t he ga me, but cou ldn’t get over the hump in a 69-64 loss.

“We’ve got to get off to a better start and defensively, ma k i ng su re t hat we get stops,” head coach Johnny Jones said. “It was a setback tonight, but these guys under-stand what we’ve got to do to get better.”

Chris Jones scored the most points by any freshman since Johnny Jones was hired as the UNT head coach in 2001. He was the lone member of the Mean Green to score in double figures, as three other players had 6 points each.

“Coach realized that the defense wasn’t able to contain

me,” Chris Jones said. “So, we were just setting screens and running pick-and-pop plays. I felt like we screened well,

which allowed me to get to the bucket.”

UNT police have released three crime alerts this semester, resulting in mass emails sent to all students. Police officials say, however, the alerts shouldn’t be an indication that UNT is unsafe.

Alerts were sent out to students Sept. 1, Oct. 21 and Nov. 6 to warn of robberies that occurred on or near campus and to encourage safety precautions; however, UNT PD Deputy Chief Ed Reynolds said on-campus crime has actu-ally decreased campared to the 2010 fall semester.

“When we compare crime, we like to compare this fall as opposed to fall of 2010; this way you’re comparing apples to apples,” Reynolds said. “And overall crime is actually down from what it was this time last year.”

Overall crime has decreased from 227 crimes this time last year to 175 crimes from Sept. 1 to Oct. 31, with decreases in the number of DWIs, possession of narcotics and liquor law and public intoxication violations.

Thefts are the one excep-tion to this year’s decrease in crime. Incidences of theft have increased from 44 last fall to 54 this semester.

“Most of the crimes that are reported and that we handle are minor, dealing with iPhones and laptops left unattended in resi-dence hall areas that students frequent often,” Reynolds said. “Thefts that occur inside build-ings usually involve students, while those that occur outside, like bike thefts, involve a mix of students and non-students.”

The trial of the TWU student charged with terrorist threats in March has been moved from its original November court date and has been rescheduled for February.

Christopher Gillette, 30, was arrested March 1 after he made inflammatory remarks in a TWU class. Gillette was sent to Denton County Jail, where he remains until his trial, with a bail set at $250,000. Gillette’s trial was originally scheduled for Monday, Nov. 14, but has been postponed until Feb. 27, 2012.

“Nothing is happening in the case right now,” said Jamie Beck, an assistant at the Denton County District Attorney’s Office. “Everything is going to happen at his trial.”

Gillette’s trail was resched-uled because his attorney is representing a client in a murder case currently being heard by the Denton County Court, Beck said.

Before his current lawyer, Derek Adame, took over the case, Fort Worth-based lawyer David Sloane represented Gillette.

Sloane filed two motions in March after Gillette was arrested. One motion questioned the $250,000 bond Gillette was assigned. The second argued Gillette was being charged and held without sufficient cause.

Adame can choose to follow up on the motions or may choose to revise the case strategy when the case nears trial, Beck said.

A d a m e could not be reached for comment.

“He can adopt and urge those m o t i o n s and take them up on behalf of his client,” Beck said. “He can also abandon them if he doesn’t agree with that strategy.”

Gillette was charged with terrorist threats in March. According to court docu-ments, Gillette claimed to be a veteran of the military with the skills to take apart Washington, D.C., “brick by brick,” and was “hopping out of the truck with an AK-47 mad” about problems with his veterans benefits and injuries sustained in the mili-tary.

Following Gillette’s state-ments, TWU was locked down for about an hour before Gillette was arrested at Dallas Veterans Affairs hospital on the morning of March 1.

Joseph Alvarez, a radio, tele-vision and film junior, said he was in his 10 a.m. Spanish class when he first got news alerts on his phone on March 1 about the TWU campus lock-down. Alvarez said he thought Gillette’s bond was appropriate for the crime he committed.

“You don’t bring a gun to church; you don’t need to bring a gun to school,” Alvarez said. “There are kids here. There’s no one here you need to harm. Even the threat isn’t right.”

“Well, I hope the wind is blowing that day,” Helixon said. “It’s going to be really exciting. We’ve gone through a long process. It started in 2009 with us finding the grant and applying for it and then bringing all the stakeholders together. I think it’ll be a day when everyone can stand back and say, ‘Look at what we did.’”

Helixon said there were initial

TurbinesContinued from Page 1

concerns from surrounding communities near Apogee Stadium about the turbines being installed because people couldn’t understand the connec-tion between football and renew-able energy.

“It is odd to see a football stadium with wind turbines next to it,” she said. “There’s kind of a culture shift that we’re trying to initiate. There was also opposi-tion from surrounding commu-nities that the turbines would be too big.”

Because Apogee Stadium is

located near Victory Hall, some residents are voicing complaints about the turbines and the construction process.

“I think they are unattractive,” freshman resident Catherine D’Annibale said. “But green energy is important and can be a clean and innovative way to gain necessary power.”

Though the construction is an eyesore, D’Annibale said resi-dents aren’t affected much by the turbines. In fact, some residents don’t know what they are.

“I was wondering what they

were,” she said. “Most people don’t know what they are yet. The side effects of construction are minimal to residents of Victory. Only occasionally will one have to wait for a work truck to move from the road.”

The office is continuing to search for other opportunities to make the campus more energy-efficient while it waits for a second grant to research solar energy to be deliberated by the State Energy Conservation Office. It has yet to hear whether the application was approved.

Crime alerts are sent out every time a “Clery-reportable” crime occurs. These include murders, sexua l assaults, robberies and violent crimes in general. Of the three crime alerts sent out this semester, only one happened on campus, Reynolds said.

A lt hough a lerts can be slightly disconcerting, Jennifer Hughes, a merchandising

sophomore, sees the benefits when it comes to her safety. “I like getting crime alerts because it makes me more aware of what’s going on, and I can be more cautious,” Hughes said. “I think it’s pretty safe, but whenever I get an alert, it freaks me out.”

With the exception of the st rong-a r m robber y t hat occurred Nov. 6 on Avenue C, violent crimes don’t happen often on campus, Reynolds said. The other two crimes that resulted in alerts happened off campus, but were close

enough that UNT PD thought it prudent to send out warn-ings, he said.

“We send out crime alerts for crimes that may have a pattern and we believe may be an ongoing threat to the st udent body,” Rey nolds said.

These crimes include car t hef ts or burg la r ies t hat happen repeatedly and in which t he suspect is not caught. If the suspect in the purse snatching on Avenue C had been caught, the crime alert would not have been sent

out, Reynolds said. For the minor thefts that

occur in buildings around campus, signs are put up warning students not to leave their belongings unattended in areas frequented often, but crime alerts are only sent out for repeated happenings that may be a serious threat, Reynolds said.

The Jeanne Clery Report is published every year with the campus’ crime statistics to inform the public about programs and services that enhance campus security.

“I think it’s wrong for a multi-tude of reasons,” he said. “Mainly, it’s all but unenforceable. And this is a sort of movement of the non-smoking majority to strip away rights of the smokers.”

If the senate approves the referendum, the student body will be given the opportunity to vote on the legislation in a poll. If approved, the ban would then need to be approved by UNT President V. Lane Rawlins.

annual holiday party, modify the group’s budget and lengthen the SGA’s officer terms.

The Holiday Party Expenditures bill allocates $1,200 to provide food at SGA’s holiday-themed open house on Dec. 1 and 2. Any student may attend the open house, which is located at SGA’s office in University Union 320S.

The SGA also passed a bill to use more of its yearly budget this semester and less in the spring semester.

Reallocating money in the budget would better meet the group’s needs, SGA director of internal affairs Sara Boucher said.

“We’re proposing to increase the budget to $3,500, because if we’ve already spent $1,500 this

semester, then it makes sense to raise it,” Boucher said. “I took all the funds that we weren’t going to use, and then I put the funds where I thought they should go.”

The officer terms bill changed the terms of the senate officers: speaker, speaker pro-tempore, secretary and sergeant-at-arms, from one semester to the entire school year.

“We are attempting to create more continuity in our organi-zation so we can better serve our students, so that we’re not stop-ping and restarting our organiza-tion every three months,” Vincent said.

Speaker of the senateFollowing Vincent’s resignation,

the SGA held a special election in

which it elected previous speaker pro-tempore Morgan Ray as the new speaker. The senate then elected senator Sean Smallwood to replace Ray as speaker pro-tempore.

As speaker of the senate, Vincent wasn’t allowed to partic-ipate in discussions and was required to abstain from voting and said he believed he could better serve the student body as a senator.

“Basically, there are a good number of bills coming up, and they’re really about students and about how we can help them out,” he said. “And I would really like to be a regular senator again so that I can help out with those bills and debate on them and be part of the process again.”

A UNT professor recently received a $50,000 grant from the National Science Foundation for his work developing tech-nology that improves driver safety by monitoring unsafe driving habits.

Computer science and engi-neering faculty member Ram Dantu, one of the 21 Innovation Corps award recipients, said he developed the Mobile Life Guard system to increase traffic safety.

“There’s a lot of accidents, pain and hazards I see when I commute,” said Dantu, a visiting professor from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who came up with idea of a safe driving program through his own hour-long commute to work.

The system works through sensors in a smart phone that interacts with a car’s computer to educate drivers about poten-tial driving hazards. The sensors send signals to the phone, which processes the data. The car’s computer uses the data to create patterns and analyze traffic conditions in real time, Dantu said.

Dantu was the only professor in Texas to win the award, which recognizes advancements in

emerging technologies.Computer engineering grad-

uate student Brandon Gozick worked on the program and said it took about a year and a half to create.

A major challenge was getting the program to work on a smart phone.

“The sensors in the phone were made for simple apps and games, and we were utilizing it for other things,” Gozick said. As a result, how the phone processed infor-mation had to be reconfigured to adapt to the program, he said.

In the future, Dantu plans to do trial tests and eventually take the program to the market sometime in 2012. The program would eventually be available for download from a website with the objective of connecting drivers.

“We’re trying to make it so that everybody can use it,” Gozick said. “We want to integrate it to people-to-people.”

Currently, the program focuses on an individual driver, but the goal of the program would be to connect all drivers to create a network of drivers’ information. By using a compilation of data, the program would make more accurate evaluations, Dantu said.

Psychology junior Chelsea Burkett commutes every day from Lewisville.

She said she knows the headaches that come with commuting.

“A lot of times, people aren’t paying attention to the road, so anything that helps with that would be great,” Burkett said.

Professor studies declining quail population

Marlene GonzalezStaff Writer

A sound most Texans who have spent time in rural areas will recognize is the clean, clea r hig h-pitched sound of the bobwhite quail. It’s a whistle biology professor Kelly Reyna said is being heard less and less these days because of the bobwhite’s dramatic drop in population.

Rey na, a lso k now n a s UNT’s quail doctor, has made it his mission to discover why the northern bobwhite quail population is declining at a rate of 4 percent a year. He hopes to find ways to prevent it from becoming extinct.

Next fall, Reyna will teach a wildlife ecology course over the factors that have led to the decline in quail. The size of this population has decreased by 80 percent since 1967 and is in t he nea r-t hreatened species section on the IUCN’s red list, he said.

Reyna, who grew up quail hunt ing, sa id he beca me interested in protecting the bird when quail populations began to decrease. He then set out to investigate what was killing them.

“Since I’m a great problem solver, I decided to solve the problem,” Reyna said.

He encourages students

i nterested i n w i ld l i fe or biolog y to sign up for the course. Students will go to 16 different land areas where landowners agreed to take part in the research process. Students will investigate the differences in the areas and observe what environments quail respond better to.

One of the subjects they will research is Trichomonas gallinae, a parasite found in the white- winged dove.

“They don’t die from it; they just carry it,” Reyna said. “If the bobwhite gets it, it dies within two days.”

He said the white doves are increasing while the bobwhite quail is decreasing, and he hopes to find a correlation between the two.

“No one’s fou nd it i n bobwhites; we may be the first,” Reyna said.

Biology sophomore Jennifer Barnett said one of the class requirements involves doing research. Barnett said she wa nt s to work on w i ld-life parasitology, the study of parasites, which is why she was thrilled to learn she would be researching para-sites in the class.

“When I started watching ‘Monsters Inside Me,’ a n Animal Planet show, I got i nterested i n pa ra sites,”

Photo by ray sasser/Dallas Morning news/MCtScientists suspect disease may be a factor in the Texas quail decline. The most consistent hunting this season has been in southern Texas.

Barnett said. “I want to learn how to run and read tests properly in the field and not get contaminated.”

Barnett said she and two graduate students are working with Reyna and will begin working on the ranches this winter.

“We build live traps so we don’t hurt the birds but are still able to trap them when we find them,” she said.

Deborah Clark is one of the landowners allowing Reyna to research their ranches. She met Reyna at a Quail protocol index in Texas in 2004 and the two have bumped into each other several times since.

Cla rk sa id she a nd her husba nd Emr y pract ice a highly intensive managed grazing program where a large herd circulates the ranch in a short amount of time to bring the pasture back to life.

C l a r k h a d h e r f i r s t encounter with quail during a difficult time in her life; she was not a rancher at the

time and didn’t understand what her husband was doing with the forage and cattle, she said.

“I w a nt to s e e t hem [bobwhite quail] increase to the point of seeing a surviv-able population of bob quail,” Clark said. “There is nothing like the purity and clarity of a bob white whistle. Dr. Reyna is trying to look at implemen-tation rather than research for the sa ke of research,” she said. “He is on to some-thing.”

Joanna Graves, owner of Rush Creek Quail Farm in Fort Worth, raises and sells bobwhites.

She said the birds are usually sold to people who hunt to restock their ranches.

Graves said this year was a little rough, breeding about 6,000 when she has around 9,000 during other years.

“It’s getting bad; they’re disappearing,” Graves said. “There was so much heat, and our ranch may have to do a little with it.”

On Friday, the shops off the Denton Square will stay open later than usual.

Denton will have its monthly First Friday on the Square and Industrial Street area.

Live music, sculptures, stained glass, appetizers and art will be available until 9 p.m. instead of the regular 6 p.m.

For First Friday, art galleries and businesses stay open longer to give shoppers an opportunity to admire and buy art.

Several communities and countries have their own First Friday or First Thursday each

Monthly event promotes art purchases in Denton

month, which is where the idea came from.

Shannon Drawe, a photogra-

pher and UNT alumnus, said he helped start Denton’s First Friday in in February 2010. He and his

wife, Leslie Kregel, thought it would be great to increase awareness of the communi-ty’s artistic talent and culture, Kregel said.

Drawe contacted sources and created the website first-fridaydenton.com to establish the event.

“First Friday has no boss, no president. I’m just in charge of the website and building it into something because I started it,” Drawe said.

Kregel’s business, Cimarrona, sells hats, scarves and warm clothing recycled from old clothes.

“What we hope is [to gain] a

little more visibility and have the public more aware of art culture in Denton that isn’t always recognized,” Kregel said.

Merchants join with artists to help promote art and busi-nesses. For example, an artist looking for a place to display his or her work could contact a coffee shop owner willing to host the artist, Kregel said.

Heath Robinson, a pharmacy junior, thinks the event will bring attention to the creativity the community has to offer.

“I think it’s a good way to increase the exposure of the arts in Denton,” Robinson said.

Robin Huttash owns A

Creative Art STUDIO, one of the businesses that has been a part of First Friday since it started.

Huttash said her main goal is providing music for the event each month.

On Friday, Alex Riegelman, a local guitarist and blues singer, will play in A Creative Art STUDIO.

Keri Zimlich, a journalism junior, said she thinks the event is a great opportunity to have fun.

“It’s not just one shop, but all the shops getting together to rekindle that love of art,” Zimlich said.

Months of hard work all come down to one night.

Senior dance students will display their original works on Friday for the first time at the New Choreographers Concert. The concert will start at 8 p.m. in the University Theatre in the Radio, Television, Film and Performing Arts Building.

General admission is $5 and tickets can be purchased at the box office, over the phone, at the door and in advance.

Students enrolled in dance professor Shelley Cushman’s senior projects class are required to choreograph or perform in the concert. They also can complete a research study in fieldwork.

“Their work is a culmination to demonstrate the knowledge they have acquired through the course of their study,” Cushman said.

Cushman, the artistic director of the concert, is known for her background in dance. She

earned the 2010 University Dance Educator of the Year from the National Dance Association.

“They have to create a product, which the public is invited to see, and in this process they have to solve all of the problems they are given in order to create this work of art,” she said.

In the class, students learn about dynamics, unity, variety, content, form and theme, Cushman said.

From the 10 choreographed works at the concert, two dance pieces were chosen to represent UNT at the American College Dance Festival, including Amelia Wert’s “The Television is Watching Me Again” and Cassie Farzan Panah’s “Gravity of Deception.”

“I set out with this image of a motel. I was interested in doing something different,” Wert said. “I thought about the idea of why people would want to stay at a motel and wondered what they felt.”

Wert’s modern piece includes

nine dancers accompanied by focused lighting to make it seem as if they are each in their own motel room. Each dancer is isolated from the others and dances with minimalistic move-ment for a strong impact. The themes include love, loss, isola-tion and insomnia, which are overlaid by the glow of a tele-vision.

“It’s a good program. We have some amazing faculty that have really pushed us far,” Wert said.

All 56 dancers were chosen from the dance department by advanced choreography students. Some choreographers also decided to dance. Cushman allowed students to perform if they were up for the challenge.

Rachel Caldwell choreo-graphed “Certain Uncertainty” and is also performing in “Guess Who’s Not Coming to Dinner,” choreog raphed by A nna Womack.

In Caldwell’s choreography, dancers explore the experi-

Seniors to debut their dance works Friday

ence of being blind by wearing blindfolds. In 28 rehearsals, the four dancers adapted to their hearing and touching senses to help them through the modern piece. Caldwell also worked with music student Ryan Pivovar to compose a song of looped cello

harmonies. Caldwell said her piece is about

blindness as an experience, not a handicap.

“I was in my modern class last semester and we would lie on the ground and shut our eyes. I wondered if I could capture a

feeling of dance with touch and sound rather than with sight,” Caldwell said.

The concert will also be held at 8 p.m. Saturday and at 2:30 p.m. Sunday in the University Theatre. For more information, visit www.danceandtheatre.unt.edu.

UNT graduate lands role on the big screen

1998 radio, television and � lm graduate Stephen Young has played parts in TV shows such as “Murder by the Book” and “Homicide Hunter.”

PHOTO COURTESY OF STEPHEN YOUNG

DAISY SILOSStaff Writer

Though radio, television and film graduate Stephen Young can’t say he’s headlined major films, he has made the big screen.

Young, who plays a small role in the film “Like Crazy,” which opened on Halloween, had previously racked up a series of TV credits in shows such as “Murder by the Book,” and “Homicide Hunter: Lt. Joe Kenda.”

“I always kind of lived in my imagination and liked playing different characters,” he said. “Movies were always my big escape.”

You n g , w h o i n i t i a l l y attended the University of Texas at Austin, said he trans-ferred to UNT because of the opportunity to gain more

hands-on experience. “I tried working in Austin,

but it was just so big I couldn’t really gain anything from their f i lm department,” he said. “Transferring to North

Texas and working for ntTV definitely gave me the expe-rience that I needed.”

W hen he came to UNT, Young said his goal was to learn the ins and outs behind

the camera, rather than in front.

“I thought to myself, I love movies so much that I wanted to know how they were made,” he said. “I figured I’d do that

as an undergraduate and then go to an acting conservatory or go into sketch and improv comedy.”

After graduating from UNT in 1998, Young said he worked for KDAF in Dallas as a camera operator and graphics artist.

In 2000, he moved to L.A. and enrolled into The Groundlings theater school, a prestigious improv school where stars such as Kristen Wiig and Will Ferrell have gone.

It was while he was there that Young met “Like Crazy” director Drake Doremus, who

offered him a small role in the film.

“It’s a small part, but he was nice enough to offer me the part,” he said. “It was a great experience and I learned a lot from him and the other actors in the movie.”

UNT business a lumnus Russell Petty said he’s known Young since seventh grade and said he thinks this is just the start of Young’s career.

“When it came to drama, he always seemed to steal the show in whatever he was in,” he said. “I always thought he had the drive and ability to make it.”

Petty has seen Young in action during their college years together and has even seen some of the work he’s done at Groundlings.

V ic tor ia A r m st rong , a t heater sophomore, sa id k now ing that people who were in her shoes before are having some success moti-vates her for the future.

“Even if it’s a small part like his, it’s a big movie that’s gotten great reviews,” she said. “There isn’t such thing as a small part as long as you gain some experience from it.”

“There isn’t such thing as a small part as long as you gain

some experience from it.”—Victoria Armstrong

In UNT’s 92-83 statement victory against Texas Tech last season, one Mean Green player led the way with clutch shooting down the stretch. The senior finished with a team-high 32 points and made a running floater with 2.1 seconds left in regulation to force overtime. What is the name and position of the former UNT star who helped the Mean Green upset the Red Raiders?

Answer: Senior guard Josh White had the Super Pit in a frenzy by leading the Mean Green to its third home win against a Big 12 team under head coach Johnny Jones.

Blue Devils coach sets wins record

Poor shoot i ng f rom 3-point range plagued UNT all night, as the team shot 1-16 from beyond the arc.

TTU (2-0) led by 3 points at halftime and stretched its lead to 13 points midway through the second half after its run. UNT outscored the Red Raiders 24-16 the rest of the way.

“I thought that for it to be our first road game, against a Big 12 team, full house, I thought we played well, and

as the year goes on, we’ll play better,” Chris Jones said.

The Mean Green had the ball down 3 points with less than a minute remaining, but freshman guard Jordan Williams missed a game-tying 3-pointer. The Red Raiders built their lead to 5 with two free throws and UNT failed to score again.

“It was def initely f rus-trating,” said Chris Jones, who hit UNT’s only 3-pointer in the game. “But we’ve got to learn when the three ball’s not there, we got to get to the bucket and get to the free-throw line.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Cheek to cheek, Mike Krzyzewski and Bob Knight hugged, a player and his coach celebrating a big win — one it’s safe to say might never happen again in college basketball.

The man known simply as “Coach K” became Division I’s winningest coach when No. 6 Duke beat Michigan State 74-69 on Tuesday night in the State Farm Champions Classic.

The Blue Dev i ls gave Krzyzewski his 903rd win, breaking the tie with Knight, Krzyzewski’s college coach at Army and his mentor throughout his professional career.

With Knight sitting across the court at the ESPN broad-cast table, and with several former players in the stands — many able to attend because of the ongoing NBA lockout — Krzyzewski moved to the top of the list in front of a sellout crowd of 19,979 at Madison Square Garden.

“I just told Coach I love him,” Krzyzewski said. “I wouldn’t be

in this position without him. It’s a moment shared. I know he’s very proud, and I’m very proud to have been somebody who’s worked under him and studied him and tried to be like him.

Junior guard Andre Dawkins had 26 points for Duke (3-0), which took control with a 20-1 run that gave the Blue Devils a 61-41 lead with 9:17 to play. Then it was just a matter of counting down the minutes — except for a late run by Michigan State that made it a five-point game in the final minute — until the cele-bration could get under way.

“The basketball gods are good ... they put two guys who’ve done a lot in the game together, special moments, and tonight is another one of those special moments,” Krzyzewski said of Knight’s presence at the historic game.

The Spartans kept Krzyzewski coaching to the final minute. They finally started hitting shots and forcing turnovers to close to 74-69 with 12.9 seconds left.

Curry had 20 points while

Kelly added 14 for the Blue Devils, who were 10 of 21 from 3-point range.

“ I t ’ s a s p e c i a l m o m e n t , ” K r z y z e w s k i said of his family and former players being there. “At half-time I wasn’t sure we were going to have this moment. We beat a really good team, and I’m glad now we can just move on and just develop our team.”

Keit h Appl i ng had 22 points for Michigan State, and Brandon Wood added 15. The Spartans finished with 21 turnovers.

“I was in a no-win situa-tion,” Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said. “I was either going to be the guy who threw the ball to Henry Aaron for the record breaker of the guy who shot Bambi.”

Krzyzewski’s latest w in

had a very similar plot to the previous 902 as the Blue Devils were patient in a spread offense that got them open 3s and they moved the ball around against a tired bunch of Spartans and finally found a way to the free throw line.

The Blue Devils finished 30 of 41 from the line.

Krzyzewski moved to the top of the list in his 37th season, all but five at Duke. He also coached at West Point, his alma mater where Knight molded a point guard into a coach for the ages.

Knight won his 902 games in 42 seasons, six at Army, 29 at Indiana and seven at Texas Tech. Krzyzewski has four national championships while Knight has three.

Krzyzewski and Knight both led the United States to an Olympic gold medal, Knight in 1984 and Krzyzewski in 2008. Coach K will have a chance at a second gold when he leads the team of NBA players again in London next summer.

At the conclusion of each Thursday practice, Dan McCarney calls upon his 26-year-old soph-omore defensive lineman to lead the UNT football team in a “hoorah”-filled chant.

A specialist in the U.S. Army from 2004-2009, Brandon McCoy – known as “Sarge” to coaches and teammates – has become a leader on the team, acting as a voice in the locker room and an energizer to fellow players.

“He’s a walk-on player who earned a scholarship; a guy that defended the freedom of our country and put his life on the line for all of us,” McCarney said. “So when he walks in the room – believe me – he garners lots and lots of respect from all of us. He is a leader.”

In the Army nowMcCoy played briefly as a tight

end while at Carrollton Creekview High School, but a handful of off-the-field issues shortened his career with the Mustangs.

A combination of fighting, skip-ping class and low grades resulted in a then-17-year-old McCoy being dismissed from Carrollton Creekview in his junior year.

McCoy was then sent to the district’s alternative school, Mary Grimes Educational Center, where he was again dismissed for cheating.

The son of a preacher wastook-summer-school classes to grad-uate in August 2003, after which he began to consider joining the military in hope of adding struc-ture to his life.

“My family was pushing me to go – any branch – just to get away from Dallas because Dallas was my Achilles’ heel,” McCoy said.

“They were like, ‘You need discipline, you need responsi-

Walk-on army vet emerges as outspoken leaderbility, you need values, you need morals; you really need to go into the military because what we’re teaching you, you’re not getting.’”

McCoy decided to join the U.S. Army and served in Iraq from September 2006 to October 2007, working several jobs over the course of his deployment.

“[I served as] an 11 Bravo, which is infantry; a 19 Kilo, which is tanker; and a 42 Alpha, which is a mail runner,” McCoy said. “Whatever job pops up, you have to do.”

The Dallas native served a member of a combat unit – but McCoy’s unit escaped each bad situation without losses.

“God definitely had his angels around us. We were the only combat unit in that deployment that didn’t have any casual-ties,” McCoy said. “We had our vehicles hit with IEDs [impro-vised explosive devises]; guys hit with shrapnel; guys that came close [to death] that should have been dead, but not one guy was killed.”

Following his time in Iraq, McCoy served back in the U.S. in 2008.

Returning to civilian lifeLeaving the chance to be

promoted as a sergeant in 2009, McCoy opted for a second chance on the gridiron.

“I was a good player in high school, but just got in a lot of trouble and got kicked out of school,” McCoy said. “So then I went into the military and my entire time in the military I was working out knowing that as soon as I get out I was going to try and pursue football.”

When weighing his options of schools, McCoy decided to attend UNT because of the school’s prox-imity to his family.

“Getting back from Iraq, it was still fresh in my mind,” McCoy said. “I was dealing with a lot of things coming back from the military and getting back to being a civilian. My family was 30 minutes away down in Dallas and that was going to be a huge support system.”

As a freshman defensive lineman in the 2010-2011 season, McCoy tallied 31 tackles and finished second on the team with three quarterback sacks in 11 games played.

This season, the Mean Green ranks third in the Sun Belt Conference with 17 sacks thanks in part to McCoy, who again ranks second on the team with 4.5 sacks.

Position: Defensive Lineman

Year: Sophomore

High School: Carrollton Creekview HS

Quotable: “I think what makes for a good defensive lineman is that attitude like [Detroit Lions player] Ndamukong Suh has: That every play I’m going to try to knock your head off.”

Get to know Brandon McCoy

Sophomore defensive end Brandon McCoy served in the Army from 2004-2009 and was named defensive MVP against Alabama.

Besides contributing on the field, the full-time starter acts as a vocal leader in the locker room.

“He brings a lot of intensity and enthusiasm,” fellow sophomore defensive lineman Richard Abbe said. “He’s a character. Before each game he’s in there yelling, getting everybody ready.”

Redshirt sophomore quarter-back Derek Thompson said the team jokes with McCoy about his age, something the 26-year-old said has proven to be an obstacle at times.

“It is a little difficult – not necessarily physically – but seeing myself in so many guys and seeing how they think they know everything and the world,”

McCoy said. “The average age [of my teammates] is about 19 or 20, so being 26 years old is a bit difficult. But it keeps me young knowing I can run with these young guys.”

Following his playing days, McCoy – who is majoring in kine-siology with a criminal justice minor – wants to help younger generations avoid the type of mistakes he made.

“I either want to be a personal trainer or middle-school coach – basketball or football,” McCoy said. “Middle school is where I went bad, so as a teacher or coach I can say [to students], ‘Hey, I’ve been exactly where you’re at’ and help them when they’re young.”

There will be a feeling of déjà vu on the court today as the UNT volleyball team t a ke s on We st Div i sion champs Arkansas State in the quarterfinals of the Sun Belt Tournament in Miami, Fla.

The Mean Green (16-16, 7-9) defeated the Red Wolves (21-9, 12-4) in the tourna-ment’s first round last year and split two matches with ASU this season.

UNT swept ASU in three sets during their last match on Nov. 4.

“[ASU] just didn’t have its best night last time against us,” head coach Ken Murczek said. “But it is a well-coached team, and I’m going to bank on that team not giving us as many easy points this time.”

Me a n G r e e n e x p e c t s tougher ASU

UNT’s win over the Red Wolves in early November was a one-sided affair from the start. The Mean Green swept ASU and hit .351, its highest hitting percentage against a Sun Belt team since 2008. The Mean Green also out-blocked ASU 7.5 to 4.

It was a mista ke-f i l led loss for the Red Wolves, who committed 23 attack errors –compared to just 10 for UNT– and hit just .123 for the night. It was the second time ASU was swept all season.

Murczek said with senior middle blocker Cayla Fielder being taken out occasion-ally for undisclosed reasons during the game, the team wasn’t at full strength.

“ASU had to take their best player out,” Murczek said. “They had a little different look against us last time.”

Statistically, Fielder is ASU’s

best player. The senior is first in the Sun Belt in hitting at .458 per set, and third in kills with 3.83 per set. UNT held her to just .188 hitting two weeks ago, but Fielder scorched the Mean Green for 12 kills on 23 attempts in October.

“They’ll be ready for us this time,” Murczek said.

Team ready for challengeClinching a seed in the

tournament was not a sure thing for the Mean Green, but it earned a playoff berth by winning its final two final two home games.

“We were real ly excited about landing sixth place,” Willey said. “It really helps our chances of getting to the second round and getting to the championship.”

Willey has stayed consis-tent all season, ranking third

in the Sun Belt in digs with 4.31 per set a nd ea rning three SBC Player of the Week awards. The senior averaged 7.43 digs per set in two wins at South Alabama and Troy, the highest for any Sun Belt player in a two-match span this season.

Entering her first tourna-ment match, freshman outside hitter Eboni Godfrey said she is anxious to show what the team can do.

“We have a ga me pla n against [ASU],” Godfrey said. “If it’s not broke, don’t f ix it.”

Play begins at 1:30 p.m.

P r e d i c t i on : U N T h a s improved; a tough loss at Denver d id n’t a f fec t it s seeding. However, ASU is too hot to handle right now. ASU in four sets.

Senior middle blocker Melanie Boykins practices hitting o� a set from freshman Liz Powell on Monday. The team will play Nov. 17-19 in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament. UNT is at sixth place in the Sun Belt Conference and will face the third-place Arkansas State in the tournament.

Do you believe UNT should have at-will employment status?

“I think, being a job, whether it’s inside the school or outside

the school, if you’re doing something that’s against the law or break the rules, then I don’t

think it’s appropriate for UNT to let them appeal. I think it should be just like any other job outside

of school; it should be treated like that.”

“I think the current system is a lot better than the fire-at-will, so I think that it should be where people could appeal and have a

say so in whether or not they are fired.”

“If you broke some sort of rule then yeah, it probably makes

sense. It depends on the severity of whatever they’ve done to

merit being fired, I guess. I think the university should still have to explain why they’re being

fired, of course. So I guess yeah, that makes sense.”

The last time a football game mattered at UNT was in 2004. That’s seven years since a home game truly held postseason implications for the Mean Green. If that doesn’t get you to the stadium for this weekend’s game, then nothing will.

Head coach Dan McCarney stepped into an absolute mess of a football program when he took over the reigns this fall. For a team that won six games over the last five years to be on the brink of its fifth win this season with a new head coach is remarkable.

With a win against Western Kentucky this weekend, and again at home against Middle Tennessee, UNT would be 6-6. That means it would have won the

necessary amount of games to be eligible for bowl consideration. That kind of success helps recruiting and in turn makes the team more competitive in years to come.

The Mean Green possesses a different swagger when playing at Apogee Stadium, and the importance of a strong home crowd cannot be understated. In the first home game of the year against the now No. 11 Houston Cougars, the largest crowd of the season at 28,000 helped the team fight to just a 3-point deficit through the first half. UNT went on to lose the game, but it’s obvious that the only reason it stayed as close as it did for as long as it did was because of fan support.

This team is something special, and fans shouldn’t miss the oppor-tunity to see the end of this season play out.

Lance Dunbar is only 142 yards short of setting the all-time Mean Green rushing record. Dunbar will definitely go down as one of the UNT greats, and it would be a shame not to be there to see him make Mean Green history.

Derek Thompson was the Sun Belt Conference’s Player of the Week against Troy and as a sophomore has become a leader for the team. His 331-yard, two-touchdown game last week is hopefully a sign of things to come. UNT students should be excited

to see his promising career unfold.With the offensive skills of Dunbar

and Thompson on full display against a tough opponent in Western Kentucky, this weekend’s game should make for some exciting competition.

Students voted to build the stadium and paid athletic fees to make it happen. Now for it go nearly vacant – like in games against Florida Atlantic where attendance was a measly 13,000 – seems odd.

It’s understandable to be bitter. This is a team that has disappointed its fans for years, but things could be dramatically different going forward, and it depends on the crowd to make sure that happens.

It’s finally getting cooler outside and for Texans, this is a huge deal! Putting up with sweltering 100-plus degree weather can really make a person crave the comfort only snow, freezing rain and ice storms can bring.

What does all of this weather talk mean? It means we get to cheerful ly f ish out our w inter clothes from hibernation, starting the process of re-doing our ward-robe for fall.

One of the biggest mistakes students are guilty of is improp-erly transitioning from summer to winter clothing. Some consid-eration needs to be given because the facts are that on any given morning it might be 25 degrees. By noon it will have warmed up to 85 degrees, only to sink back to a freezing point at 6 p.m.

In Texas, know to expect the unexpected. Don’t be a fashion victim.

Should we wear a beanie on our warm heads and put sandals on our cold feet? No. This type of dressing is odd to look at and doesn’t actually prepare you for the sporadic temperatures you will experience.

The best method is to check the weather in the morning before you even step out your front door. The second step is to dress in layers, starting from your feet and ending at the top of your head. Not the other way around.

Your body natura l ly senses temperature from your feet first. Do what is sensible.

Boots are always acceptable and appropriate in this type of tran-sitioning weather. Sandals should always be a winter no-no because it may rain or freeze within a few hours. Not only are you risking gett ing sick, but you w il l a lso look pretty ridiculous sloshing through the rain in sandals and cold feet.

Do not wear shorts NO MATTER WHAT. The season for shorts is long gone. An exception is females who layer shor ts over t ig hts. Shorts and sanda ls combined with scarves and gloves are just dysfunctional. Your body tempera-ture is confused in this state.

Also, don’t forget to carry an umbrella for those scattered Texas showers that soak the ground but only last for five minutes.

We can’t change the weather, but we can certainly be fashion-able when it changes.

The U.S. State Department last week put off for at least a year a deci-sion on the controversial Keystone XL pipeline proposal. The decision had been expected by the end of 2011 but now seems unlikely before early in 2013.

A delay makes sense. Too many disturbing issues continue to swirl around the application by the TransCanada Corporation to add 1,600 miles to its existing Keystone 1 pipeline network for Canadian tar sands crude oil.

The XL expansion would allow the company to pump its heated slurry of sludge-like crude oil and solvent from storage sites near Calgary, Alberta, to refining facilities near Houston and Port Arthur, Texas. From those port cities, the Canadian company easily could ship its prod-ucts to customers overseas.

In a conference call briefing with reporters last week, Assistant Secretary of State Kerri-Ann Jones said the delay resulted from new concerns that had been raised in Nebraska about the pipeline’s route through the environmentally sensi-tive Sand Hills area.

The Nebraska state legislature is meeting in a special session called by Republican Gov. Dave Heineman to consider enacting laws that would give the state more leverage to chal-lenge the pipeline. The governor supports the pipeline but not the proposed route through parts of the Sand Hills and over the huge Ogallala Aquifer that lies under most of the state.

But those same concerns already

had been raised and rejected in the project’s environmental impact statement phase. Ms. Jones explained that the current “national interest” phase allows a broader basis for inquiry than the more technical “environmental impact statement” phase.

The State Department’s inspector general is investigating possible improprieties with the permitting process. For example, to prepare what turned out to be “no-prob-lems” environmental impact state-ments, the department approved TransCanada’s hiring of a firm with which it has a long-standing financial relationship. Then there are the questionable contacts between department officials and a TransCanada lobbyist who worked on the 2008 presidential campaign of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

U.S. officials should use the next 12 months to explore the serious environmental problems that still surround the project. They also should take a hard look at claims about how many jobs the project supposedly would create. A recent analysis by Cornell University’s School of Industrial and Labor Relations found that supporters’ claims were wildly inf lated and impossible to verify.

The more information that becomes available about Keystone XL, the harder it becomes to consider it in the national interest of the United States.
