  1. Just as important...we need to Pack the Pit to let him know how much his industry is appreciated.

  2. Sorry if I missed another thread on it, but how about our other first place team? Stormed back from being down big to set their best start ever in conference. I love the men's team as much as everyone else on this board - but Coach Burton and the whole team deserve a big pat on the back for the start to the season!

  3. I don’t normally comment on homer announcers, but this crew said something that might be the most ridiculous I’ve heard. During a review of the standings, one of them actually said this: “The Shockers could have beaten Memphis last week. If it wasn’t for the 22 turnovers, Wichita wins that one”

  4. Big props to Sigma Phi Epsilon for having a bunch of members attend the Temple game, being loud and waving their flag. The blue hair women’s studies majors who go to our school will never be college basketball fans. But the red-blooded Americans who are in our Greek system know how to act at a college basketball game. And our AD really has to do a better job connecting with them. Thank you Sig Ep! Hope to see you guys at every game. And invite your friends in other fraternities and sororities. The culture must start with someone. Why not you? Why not now?

  5. God willing, we will be traveling there often. Five hours to Wichita is infinitely more pleasurable of a drive than four hours to Austin/TXSt or five to SAT. We anticipate our first grandson's birth in Wichita in May. He shall be called Denton. Wichita is a great town and the town supports Wichita State. GMG

  7. We are still in the glory days of this program. The best way to guarantee that this program endures is to lock in one of the very two men that got us to where we are. I don’t know about you… but I don’t like to think of this era leaving us and I love that we are ‘in it’ for both conference champion talk and in NCAA tourney talk each year around this time. let’s do what we can and lock in Hodge!!!!! This is a no brainer for our AD to do asap.

  8. Man, Moulaye Sissoko has been the man lately. Goes 14/13 today, plays the most minutes and is a beast in the paint. Floyd was also terrific, but the big guy kept us in the game early and was so solid all night.

  9. This team is… 14-4 5-1 in conference 10-0 at the Pit Astounding that people aren’t making it a priority to come watch them.

  11. https://dentonrc.com/coach-ross-hodge-rebuilt-unt-while-maintaining-its-success-with-a-unique-style-heres-how/article_0dbbd5f0-d2f7-11ef-802c-1bcba34c42dc.html “A team like Memphis needs its top three or four guys to get 15 shots a game to be successful,” Walker said. “A team like us, it can be five to eight shots per guy. That makes us tougher to guard. I’ll take what we have over what most teams in the country have.” “The culture is what got everyone here,” Lorient said. “We’re a bunch of hardworking guys who want to win.” The Mean Green are just fine with being the Virginia of the AAC, a defensive-focused team that plays at a slow pace, spreads the ball around and — most importantly — wins. “This is one of the closest teams I’ve been on since I started out in AAU,” Walker said. “We’re close off the court. Multiple times this year guys have said they’re sad this is our last year together because of how close we have gotten in a short period of time. “We’re playing for each other.”

  13. Great win for the good guys. Not exactly breaking news but Lorient has been such an awesome find for this team. He's so much more skilled than I anticipated and he has room to grow on both ends. I cringed at the early season lineups with him and Moulaye, but that's easily been our best 4/5 combination. Atin is ridiculous when he's on. Delo barely scored a point and he's one of my favorite players to watch. Oh and Hodge moves to 3-0 against ECU.

  14. Are we not allowed to criticize this game? And how UTSA came in here and outplayed us? This game will have consequences. this is a horrible loss. Ross Hodge got out coached and his players got out played in this game. Doesn’t mean he’s a bad coach. But this game when you’re trying to make a national statement is BAD. Are we not allowed to say that? how can anyone defend this game?

  15. Yes, we’re going to need to pay at the top of the league scale (excluding Memphis) for Ross and assistants after this season. Coach Burton is also in line for a raise and extension. He’s done a remarkable job too.

  18. A lot of teams in the conference, like Rice, get to play cupcake nonconference schedules then he get exposed in league play. Temple struggled with a weak nonconference but have turned it up in league play. Not sure if they had any injuries before? Maniacs are making moves to get students at The Pit. They will be giving out Maniac jerseys.

  19. Looked like a nice section of Mean Green fans in San Antonio. I could hear them on the ESPN+ broadcast during the game ....and with the North Texas chant.

  20. Today we honor our past. Many of the characters on this T shirt became life long acquaintances of mine after their historic first-ever run to the Big Dance in ‘88 in Salt Lake. For them, and those who came before and after, we never forget you guys and your accomplishments. GMG! Rick

  21. I would say the folks that walk into the Super Pit, or don’t. If our fan base is so fickle that a game like tonight, in the midst of what this team has done this year and this program has done for the past almost decade, can make people stay home…then we don’t have North Texas basketball fans, we have bandwagoners.

  22. I've reached out to over ten people who normally don't attend the games and encouraged them to come Saturday. They didn't know about the tailgate activities, and some may bring their kids. Sometimes people just need a little nudge to motivate them to attend. I hope we will have multiple gates and ticket windows open. It would be nice to have more than two concession stands open as well. Don't give people who show up for the first time a reason to complain. Make it a great experience and maybe they will come back. GMG!

  24. honest question...why are y'all expending all this energy to complain about it here instead of collecting grievances and sending it direct to Mosely? he's the AD of a mid-tier athletic program...it's not like you're trying to get T-Swift's ear.

  29. I expect to get a lot of down votes for this, but am I the only one who cannot stand seeing these male Mean Green dancers? For God sakes go be a cheer leader or something else, but leave the Mean Green dancers to the females. Do guys have to invade everything that female do? I cannot watch the Mean Green dancers when one of those guys is out there. I want to cheer for them because they rep the school that I love, but I just can't with those guys out there.

  31. They will come… When we play in a new arena, and The outside temperature is between 65 and 67 degrees, and We play a more exciting brand of basketball, and We play specific teams that excite them, and The game is late enough for them to make it after work, and The game is not so late that they can’t get home early, and Ticket prices are lower, and It’s the 30th of February. As soon as that happens…sell out!

  32. Glad we get them at home. This is the type of game that the AD should be promoting all out. Well, they should do that every game, but this has the potential to be a great game and we need the home court advantage with a big, loud crowd. Hope Walker is back and ready to roll.

  34. The men's and women's teams are 0-4 combined since this change was made. I realize I was the biggest endorsement for this movement, but understand wins on the court are more important than wins on GMG. Thank you in advance.

  35. Looked like a classic example of a team thinking that they were playing a bad team and they don't have to try. One of the worst halves of basketball at NT in a long time. Give credit to UTSA for taking advantage of an opportunity to embarrass a good team. Hopefully, this game will be a great lesson for NT and not the beginning of a significant decline.

  38. WTH? is correct. What the hell were you thinking? You don't mess with a streak. We are dominating in the first half and you find it necessary to go get some dinner? Really? Cant believe some people. If you think you are doing well because you aren't having sex, then no sex. If we are doing well because you are "hungry for some dinner", then suck it up and be hungry until the final gun. Pancho's will be open when the game is over.

  41. So, is Passing Game Coordinator a thing now on college staffs? I always thought that would just fall under Offensive Coordinator or QB Coach? I would like to see us add a Tackling Coordinator on defense.

  45. Leave it to this AD to start mass emailing fans with promotions with 5 home games left lmao oh well better late than never I guess Jared. He sits so cozy courtside and doesn’t ever talk to anyone during the games. What does he do again? We the people are the driving force behind our basketball programs. Imagine if people in cozy offices cared as much as we do….. oh I’m sorry I forgot they only market on Twitter or X 🙄
