The season was over for b-ball. No real reason to grant another year.

Not to worry...we’ll catch ya next year. You have bigger issues to deal with at the moment. Stay safe! 👍👍. Appreciate the support!

He should get the NCAA bonus of $25,000. The CUSA tournament was cancelled granting us the automatic bid. Put up the banner and pay the man.

Where were these great moral types when Clinton and Obama abused the pardon system

I would say that this whole season was a huge roller coaster. I mean low to middle of the pack expectations to start, losing very close games in OOC to some usual powerhouse schools, losing a tough lead in BG, winning 8 in a row and winning in places we haven't in a long time, losing on the road to a bad Rice team, bouncing back and winning 4 in a row to close out the normal regular season, losing a thriller to LT (One of the top games last season), flying charter to Miami and blasting them for our first win in Miami in 4 try's since 2015, beating WKU in one of the best Mean Green basketball games ever and winning the C-USA Regular season ON HOME COURT, and first win against WKU since 2012, losing to Charlotte in a sort of pointless game for NT, and getting the rest of the crazy season canceled. That was a roller coaster typing it!

Rick, Thank you, and the other first respondents for your efforts. Knox

Worked another 24 hour shift among millions yesterday. Everyone seemed to be moving about, going to work and doing their thing. Some good news on the research & findings towards a cure and prevention of covid19. The FDA and CDC hope to have a vaccine within a few weeks or less. Research using a combination of Chloroquine and Azythromiacin is showing promise in speeding up recovery and possibly a preventative? An interesting read on one of the clinical trials on that https://www.covidtrial.io We may be able to obtain tests readily enough that we’ll be able to test ourselves at home as early as next week? That would be incredible if the suppliers can pull that off? We’re gonna get through this. Rick

not surprising, Basketball season was all but over when games were cancelled including 20% of teams being actually done with losses in Rd1 of Conference. Feel horrible for the Seniors, but they were 95% done for most teams, not 50% or less done like many of the sports just kicking into high gear in early March.

If only “eSports” were actually sports.

How about ‘the place where the ref mic hardly works’

Coach Walsh resigned recently. There appears to be more to the story but that is that is all that is being reported at this time.

For what it's worth (from a Washington Post article): https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/baylor-bears/2020/03/18/how-would-area-teams-have-done-in-the-big-dance-multiple-experts-had-unt-as-cinderella-baylor-as-top-contender/

I'm sorry, but when has our offense been called bad by anyone? I mean we were top 20 in field goal (I think), 3 Point, etc. What a terrible point by that person

Another Trump is evil article;Surprise! Look back on the others and judge them the same if you dare.

0097 ditto again

If I remember correctly he got a DWI a few years ago. Everyone makes mistakes, but not sure why he resigned suddenly.

with Walsh gone

Now maybe the MEAN GREEN can get a fair shake at Guyer worth Walsh gone

At least we lose to the NCAA Champs.

How about if her brother transferred?

Yes

Are we really ok with having Chad Morris spawn on staff? 😕

Well, I guess we should have figured, but UNT has closed all athletic fields until further notice. This, unfortunately, makes cancellation of this year’s Kickball Classic necessary. Really too bad, but cannot be avoided and probably for the best considering the need to be safe and “social distance”, etc. Certainly do not want to take any unnecessary chances with this virus. If you have donated, sponsored or signed up to play in this year’s event, please PM me your wishes concerning either simply converting your player registration to a donation to the Cheer program or if you would prefer a refund. We will honor your wishes without problem or question. Many thanks to all of you who opted to support these great student-athletes. Hate to see our 10th annual event cancelled, but simply cannot be helped. See ya next year for our next event. Please PM me your wishes. GO MEAN GREEN!

Interesting... Haunga coming to NT from Auburn Morris' dad currently on staff at Auburn Wonder if these connections factor in on the recruiting trail or transfer portal down the road. Either way, excited for these additions.

Welcome to both!

Haha...He would describe it as the stadium where the Mean Green have lost 25% of its games in the Littrell era.

The Eagles Nest

Well douchebag

Yep … see ya next year! Appreciate your support! Thank you Sir!

He's had some off the field issues before... surprised he wasn't fired before. These may not be his own terms.

Weird situation to just resign, but I wonder what he did

I read the article and the failures parts makes you wonder.

So, I'm guessing we've signed some of them as preferred walk ons?

I'm more saying it's led to a level of arrogance and disrespect around the actual severity of our situation, the pandemic and it's spread, than speaking to the actual symptoms themselves.

it should be pointed out that "mild symptoms" were ostensibly established by the Chinese response during the initial Wuhan outbreak and included up to non-life-threatening pneumonia. many have discounted the severity of the virus upon hearing 80-90% of cases were "mild:

We couldn't keep the world locked down for 18 months.

Nope this will pass. The issue is the stupidity surrounding this one. Everyone is losing their minds instead of using common sense.

Agree with @LongJim. If Bloomberg and Styer’s campaigns proved anything it’s money cannot always buy position. Although I respect both using their own money their campaign messages, and personalities were very uninteresting. Rick

Not sure about the “bankruptcy and destitution” comment, as I don’t think it has any bearing on the conversation unless, you know, “unfair and unequal”, or whatever. I'll go out on that limb and reckon that the vast majority of GMG folks are richer than 99% of the world’s population, and probably don't think about--or care about--millionaires, billionaires and their doings as a general rule. If they, or billionaires made a lot of money--good for them, as far as I'm concerned. But to quote the bard Robert John Lange--that don't impress me much. Can't speak for everybody though--although NBC/NYT apparently wants to. If NBC and the NYT wanted to make the point that there is too much money influencing politics, they could have left it at that, and compared 2-3 candidates and how much they are taking in/spending. Or, they could have delved a bit deeper into who is contributing and at what amount. They did not do this. The video could have mentioned, for example, that three of Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren’s top contributors are Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple. Bloomberg spent his own money. What business is it of theirs if the guy wants to throw his own money away? More importantly--where did 'give a million to every American' come from? Bloomberg is an easy target because he's rich, and they can attack him without upsetting their advertisers. That’s a real shame. His billions didn’t buy Bloomberg delegates. It didn’t buy Trump the popular vote. It didn’t buy Steyer anything. It didn’t buy Forbes anything—twice. It didn’t buy Perot anything--twice. Seems to not be a winning strategy, but I think it comes down to folks didn't want to vote for those guys in sufficient numbers--money be damned. It generally happens that the American public—when it comes down to nut-cuttin’—is going to vote for the person that they believe will lead the country in a way that is best for them, their families, and their future. That’s almost always the case. But we'll wring our hands and rend our garments about the unfairness and outrageousness until then. Again. NBC and the NYT played themselves. They repeated a wild-eyed—possibly tongue-in-cheek--statement of folly without so much as checking out its veracity and simply stated it as fact. And they did it in a way that elicited a reaction in the public’s mind of “Wow, I could have used that money. He has too much. What an entitled, privileged, patriarchal a-hole.” What a lazy, pitiful attempt at journalism or news. The NT Daily is better at fact checking. NBC and the NYT were so smitten—no, I’d say they were thoroughly aroused—by the statement: “He Could Have Given Every American A Million Dollars”, that they didn’t bother with any facts, didn’t bother with a $.99 calculator, and beat up a billionaire’s campaign—financed with his own money--that wasn’t going to go anywhere anyway.

Fox might very well be conservative but they do sprinkle in liberals in some of their shows. On CNN and MSNBC you will not find any conservatives

No, they all do that. Not a single one of them is innocent of that model.

News and media haven't been honest for decades. The have to sell their sponsorships. They need views, web clicks, etc. What sells? Controversy. Put out there controversial stories, and people will tune in.

Italy's death rate to known infections is over 8% now. Scary stuff.

Glad to see you continue to bring politics in to this. We all get it - You do not like Trump.
