Two thoughts----- 1) I've got some oceanfront property I'll gladly sell you in Laramie. 2) Bad for academics? It will be the same travel schedule as normal. They'll charter a flight out on a Friday, play the game on Saturday, and fly home. It's not like they'll be in a wagon traveling the Oregon Trail to get there.

Why in the hell do we keep doing this DUMB crap??! Every P5 job that opens up doesn’t deserve a “what if Mac leaves for_____” thread. He has had P5 opportunities, and yet I saw him just yesterday on OUR sideline.

I'd much rather be playing Wyoming or any MWC opponent than another lame FCS team. It makes our program better.

No, we offer Ross Hodge and hope he accepts.

Where? Have you been to Laramie? It ain't nowhere near the far west coast!

***Mods, feel free to move this but it's North Texas football related because it involves Apogee (plus, it's for a good cause*** As most of you are aware, I am the Chief of Police in the Town of Argyle. As part of our law enforcement mission, we have the opportunity to respond to calls involving children who have been physically or sexually abused. These kids often require medical evaluations, psychological assistance, or family counseling afterwards. These services, along with the physical space to bring police, prosecutors, and therapists under one roof, exist at the Children's Advocacy Center (CAC) of North Texas. Last year I repelled off of the Denton Fire Department training tower to help raise money for the CAC. This year, I will be repelling off of Apogee Stadium on May 6th. I'm asking each of you to consider contributing to the cause to help me raise much needed money for the CAC and the children they serve. Of course, every one of you is invited to come watch me go "over the edge" on that Saturday as well.

Credit to Tennessee for staying in this game as long as they did...they're just not used to this level of basketball.

Yesssss siiiiiiiirrrrrrr!!!!!!!

that was a perfect game of basketball. both teams played tough as hell, it was well officiated and in the end the best 5'8" guard in the country knocked down a 30 footer for the win.

Biggest game in the History of Western Civilization.

Sorry man, I am calling bullshit on that. Ross Hodge is a great coach and he is already with us. If Mac leaves we owe Ross this job for what he has done for us. If we pass on him it would be a slap in the face to both him and Mac.

NO kdding! A fav: So hard to watch a Sun Belt team control us at home ...those pokes can go have a seat and weep.

NT 65 --------- OSU 59 Final

“Predators of Badgers include humans, eagles, and wildcats.”

I saw a CNN article yesterday pointing out various statistics regarding the NCAA Tourney. They mentioned North Texas as being the highest rated NET school (38) to not make the tournament. They also pointed out all the other teams that got at-large bids with lower NET ratings. Pittsburgh made the tournament with an at large bid and a NET rating of 67. This was a crime and the NET was supposed to stop this sort of bias. That same article mentioned that CUSA has won 5 of the last 7 first round tourney games with no seed being higher than 12. That's an amazing achievement that should be recognized. It's not.

Biggest game in the History of Western Civilization.

When asked about the Tech rumors....... "I just know that there are a lot of people recruiting our guys, too. It doesn't mean they are leaving. We have a special thing going here. I'm thankful to be a part of it."

Damn, we already have two pages on a game thread a week before the game? UNT IS A BASKETBALL SCHOOL!!!

Better team won. Get douchebagged, OK State

Soooooo….we just gonna ignore the fact that we won in a Big XII team’s gym to punch a ticket to the NIT semifinals…in black jerseys?

Damn. I love those dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark green uniforms!

Happy for Littrell. He left us better off than he found us. I have no ill will towards the man. He wasn’t the one to get us to the top but he got us out of the cellar without question.

Welcome to the board. I wish nothing but the absolute worst week of practice for your program that translates to a gut wrenching defeat by our beloved Mean Green. Again, welcome.

Hey Mean Green fans. Badger fan here - I've been to your campus like 30 years ago when I lived for a couple years in Flower Mound. I think nothing posted here about the Badgers is blatantly wrong. There was a comment about Jordan Davis getting a "rare" start earlier in the year, but he was in fact the starter at the 3 up until midway through the year when Essegian was inserted. Essegian is in a horrid slump - he came in as a sharpshooter and was the emerging leading scorer/primary option, but has gone ice cold the last 10 or so games. There's some chatter amongst the fans about putting Davis back in because he's the better option defensively. Has UW played a defense as good as UNT? Looking on t-rank, it looks like Rutgers, Kansas, Purdue, and Northwestern are ranked ahead of UNT at 24, and UW is at 25. 9 of the 14 B10 teams were top 50 defenses. Quite frankly, UW struggles mightily on offense. What worries me most is that you have an excellent 2P% defense and we are really terrible this year at that. Crowl is a 7 footer and he was excellent in the first two rounds of the NIT, but was not able to outduel the bigs of Oregon offensively, getting a lot of shots blocked and altered. Tyler Wahl also mainly scores by backing defenders down in the post, but he has been terribly inefficient at that this year, especially since his injury at the beginning of January. Gilmore is the main backup big to both of those guys and he is a huge step down offensively - he does play good defense, though. Hepburn, our PG, is also notoriously inefficient inside the arc, but when he has a size advantage - like he did against Liberty - he can go crazy. The other thing to mention is almost every game UW plays is close. Last night was the 20th game decided by 5 points or less. In back to back games, UW took Purdue to the wire and had to sweat against bottom-feeding Minnesota. Ask me anything.

they specifically said on the broadcast that they were staying with the UNT game and that the tip of Wisconsin/Oregon was going to be shown on the U. are you sure you didn't just sit on the remote? it's probably black, so maybe you just didn't see it. gotta get a green remote.

Sissoko came up huge today, we can see the parts he still needs to work on when he doesn't know when to stay in the lane or come out to defend. Mac made good adjustments and rotated Martinez in when Sissoko was getting beat to keep his confidence up. The team kept grinding and kept digging. The mental part of the game is just so huge in games like this, very proud of the guys. Also 90% shooting at the stripe today.

It wasn't pretty but boy, this committee really had OK state as the first ones out? 😂 Give me the MEAN GREEN ANY DAY OF THE WEEK BABY

WAHAOHOHOHW!!!!!! Love those BLACK uniforms!!!!!!

Not worried. If Morris can’t make ANY of the QBs we have work we got bigger issues than losing a walk on.

I'm pretty sure she wants to keep coaching. I'm beyond sad her tenure here was not more successful.

If we lose it's because CMJ didn't start the thread.

Seriously? El Paso is further West than Laramie, Wyoming. Wyoming is a peer program. We need to schedule more MWC schools instead of the Texas Southerns of the world.

All these ugly road wins we earn and opposing fans just shit on their own team. Nobody wants to acknowledge how good UNT actually is, or that we might be the better team!

One more thing CUSA is undefeated in the postseason so far . 7-0

The MWC had 4 bids with the lowest being an 11 seed and came away with one win. New Mexico lost their NIT game. Last year they were 0-4 in the NCAA and 0-1 in the NIT. San Diego's win ended an 0-11 streak for the MWC. CUSA deserved at least one more bid in my opinion.

yes, but we screwed ourselves with the late season loss to Charlotte and then playing horrible 15 min against UAB.

Traitor? He went to Southeastern Oklahoma State for his bachelors and Oklahoma State for his masters. He came here for a paycheck. He left to WVU for a bigger paycheck. What is so traitorous about that? Did you say the same about Johnny Jones or any of the many assistant football coaches that have left us for greener pastures over the last several years?

Biggest game in the history of Western Civilization

Well deserved!! Pay him more!!

We have never been this deep. Head: starting experience at LA Tech. Rogers: starter at UL-M Gunnell: recruited to and started at AZ as a four star prospect. Earle: starter at ACU Ruder: four star recruit with starting experience at UNC.

Why is this guy still allowed to post?

You always want to make the NCAA Tournament, because you never know what can happen. Maybe you can become FAU and make the Sweet 16, or a George Mason and get to the Final Four. That said, if I'd rather make the NIT Semifinals than be one and done in the Big Dance. Obviously beating Purdue trumps this, but getting this far is really big. And if we cut down the nets Thursday, I say it's bigger than Purdue in 2021.

Our free throw defense definitely helped.

Great player for UNT. It's a shame it couldn't work for her on the court as a coach.

What a game yesterday. This young man has some incredible offensive skills. Hope is role changes in the future and we get to see more of this. Range out to the three line, beautiful turn around jumper yesterday, etc. Just a selfless player that we have yet to see reach his potential.

Team deserves 7K or more for the final home game of yet another terrific campaign.

This win bumped UNT up 11 spots in the NET. 50 to 39.
