  1. I assume we also claim the baseball title, since we haven't lost a game all year.

  2. Jesus I hate these threads. We think so small time and any hint of success we start talking about them leaving. it took many years for JJ to get his chance for a big school. Even so, I wish we wouldn’t be so quick to go to this type of thinking.

  4. Played a Disc Golf Tournament yesterday in Hot Springs and ran into another Alum playing in my foursome. Pretty cool guy, He nearly aced a hole and then I threw an ace right after he hit the basket 🙂 He is a local FF/Paramedic in the mid-Cities. Just cool coincidence.

  7. Hamlet played a handful of games in the decade... no way he can even be considered. Odufuwa, white, thompson, mitchell, williams. I'd have considered voting for chris jones and jeremy combs if they didnt leave early.

  8. He spent one spring with arguably the worst coaching staff in all of college football. I don't know how much that brings to the table, TBH.

  9. Bean better be packing on some weight! I have concerns about his durability as a runner. I hope Aune (pronounced Aune) steps into the starting position.

  10. When DJ was a guest at the Coaches Radio Show, he was asked about continuing to play after graduation. He said, that he "was done", that he was in a "pretty serious relationship" with his girlfriend and that her was anxious to "get on" with the next phase of his life. Did not sound to me like he was too interested in continuing to play after graduation, but, then, the comments were made before the conference tourney was cancelled. However, to me, DJ seems like a kid who has a pretty firm grasp on want he wants to do and where he wants to go. So, based on his radio show comments, I think DJ is done with organized basketball. As to another year for all seniors, I really doubt it. All the seniors played a full year of basketball...all the way through their conference games. I can see the NCAA granting spring sport seniors an extra year...softball, golf, track, etc., but not basketball. But, it's pretty crazy "out there" these days, so you never know. But, one thing I am pretty confident in saying is that whatever DJ decides, it will be the correct decision for him and that he will be successful.

  13. This is the overwhelming opinion I’m clinging to. Maturity, P5 experience and a seemingly steady personality and game. We need a stable captain during this transition and my money is on that guy. Get the ball to 1 and 16 when possible and keep the chains moving. If we protect him we can deal I bet.

  15. If I were Draper I’d come back. This would be the last hoorah and nothing like this would ever happen again. If a waiver is given... he should totally take it.

  17. I obviously hope we keep him, but if not, I’m a fan of Coach Hodge moving up. He seems to be the brains behind the defense, players love him, and he has a lot of the Juco ties as well.

  19. I was only able to catch a little but, but he talked about how “out of body” the whole situation has been. The emotions of going from thinking they would be playing in empty arenas, to the CUSA tourney being cancelled (which automatically put UNT in the NCAA tourney), to the Big Dance being cancelled. Talked about breaking the news to the team and how bad he felt for the players, especially the seniors. He was also asked about seniors being given another year of eligibility and he said that deep in his heart he hoped they would, but that realistically he didn’t think it would happen. He did express his hope that the seniors on spring sports teams would be given an extra year. That’s all I caught before having to leave my vehicle. What I heard of it was very good.

  21. Think you might be off on this a little. "Trump said at a press conference Monday evening that he would seek “very substantial relief” for the economy, including discussing with Congress a payroll tax and help for hourly wage earners. But the president’s economic package would leave out, for now, any aid for the travel industry, people familiar with the matter said Monday night. It may be difficult to persuade the administration to single out the oil industry for aid in any targeted relief package, given that the president sees lower oil prices as a benefit for consumers. https://fortune.com/2020/03/10/trump-coronavirus-payroll-tax-cut-travel-energy-retail-economic-aid/

  24. On a good day, our hospitals are close to max and likely understaffed. Between that and major screwups in test availability and procedure, plus folks going out in large groups due to bad top level leadership, we might be in for a mess.

  25. Since there is no CUSA Tournament and no NCAA berth waiting as a prize as a reward for the winner of the tournament, what should be done to properly recognize the 2019-2020 North Texas Men's Basketball team ? Rings for sure, but there needs to be something more public. Some sort of ceremony at the Coliseum ? An expanded Basketball Banquet ? A special plaque at the Coliseum or additional banner (additional to the conference banner) in the rafters ? Maybe an event and invite the entire conference for an event in the Indoor Practice Facility ? I hate for BB season to end this way. Start thinking. GO MEAN GREEN

  27. The more reps Bean gets with 1’s, the better he’ll become. Aune is still rusty. Those two will drive each other to be better over the summer & into Fall practice. Coach Littrell likes Bean a little more as of last season. That can change, & with a new OC, there might be more volatility, but otherwise it should be Bean’s job to lose.

  28. The attached map from the CDC doesn't convince me that the Covid-19 virus cares whether it's flu season or not (and another article describes the typical Australian flu season as being June-September): https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/world-map.html Article on Australian 2019 flu season (which does indicate that had an earlier start that year, with some cases in March and April, but this still doesn't appear to provide much comfort through the "will end with warmer weather theory" https://www.health.com/cold-flu-sinus/australia-flu-season-us

  31. Again, the virus was not even fully identified until late Dec/early January, making the response trigger around that time, not in November when it may have first surfaced. Regardless of that, the urgency is about preventing as many deaths as possible and stopping our health care system from being overloaded. In Wuhan they basically stopped doing anything other than combating the virus. That means that if you had a heart attack, you likely just died instead of being brought to the hospital. All routine or elective procedures were halted in northern Italian hospitals, as operating rooms were turned into ICUs. Again, all of this ignores the fact that many people will barely know they are sick and will go on with their daily lives abscess transmit the disease. Do you think the popcorn guy at the Stars game has paid sick leave or am excellent insurance plan. Or the waiter at Cane Rosso? And even if they did, testing hasn’t been happening. So it wouldn’t matter. Early detection is essential and we flubbed it. The entire nation of Italy is under quarantine. Just think about that.

  34. If there was ever a reason to support your local newspapers, this is it. They’re going out there providing all the local updates relevant to you and COVID19, updates that the national outlets can’t do. Most of them offer an insanely good start-up deal, like 1-2 dollars/week for 1-6 months. After that it will go up to $10-15/month which is still awesome. And, it’s non-committal , so you can cancel at anytime including during the promo period. Full, unlimited access to all their e-content, which includes everything they print and more! Do it! I just subscribed to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Find your local paper and stay locally informed!

  35. Please stop spreading misinformation “COVID-19 is the infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered coronavirus. This new virus and disease were unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019.” https://www.who.int/news-room/q-a-detail/q-a-coronaviruses https://www.who.int/china/news/detail/09-01-2020-who-statement-regarding-cluster-of-pneumonia-cases-in-wuhan-china

  44. If you had legal authority to come take my house and raze it without giving me a dime, I would be inclined to take what you offered. Or, if I felt confident enough, I'd try to negotiate a better rate with you (like daddy did) instead of hardlining and fighting the inevitable...despite how I feel about it.
