Nearly a century later, UNT students still make the eagle hand claw—a sign of unity thats far more acceptable than if everyone wrote the same midterm paper.

The exact origin of that name is up for debate, but many trace it back to Mean Joe Greene, a member of that defense who went on to lead the legendary Steel Curtain for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
