So we can't be in the top ten in football or basketball?! Lovely.

I'm not sure we should be in the Top 15 for basketball.

golfingomez · January 26, 2015

maybe if we dropped down to 6A we could be considered for a top 10 ranking

It sucks too because you can see some of the pieces in place here. They're all diamonds in the rough though because we don't have a staff who knows how to make them shine.

In the 14th year of the current AD.

Only at UNT.

This is another example of why so many alumni just don't care about UNT sports. Losing games doesn't matter here much at all--losing (known) dollars matter the most.

Sam Houston State, SFA, and UTA...that is who is too high on the Texas College Hoops Totem Pole for us to pass up in basketball right now. But we can easily say that we aren't behind our CUSA Texas brethren, either, so deal with that Miners, RoadRunners, and Owls (ignore that none of them are rated, either, as well as the fact that UTSA and UTEP own us in every single revenue sport we play...)

I would go a step further. This is why many alums make fun of UNT athletics. They know UNT doesn't care, so why should they?

I know UTEP is going through a rough patch in their season but they beat 5-10 on that list. They are just better.

Yesssssss

Even in bad years UTEP is never a really bad team. Grew up watching them and even in down years they were always respectable in basketball. Football is another story.
