  1. Not all of last years players returned, such as Tyler Perry for example. The UNT men's basketball team won last years NIT, but our players on the floor this year were not last years team.
  2. I didn't know that, because this tournament, like all others, is legally gambled on in certain states and knowledge of a players health is important. I think all professional teams are required to provide this information but not 100% sure. With the way NIL is moving this may change as college sports become more professional but I appreciate you bringing me up to speed. Thanks
  3. I am disappointed that our Athletic Department has not issued a statement on Scott's health.
  4. Playing a little sloppy at end.
  5. Tulsa won regular season in tiebreaker so they should be going to WNIT, with AAC tournament winner getting WNCAA bid.
  6. Lets just assume we go 1&1 in AAC tournament finishing 18 &14 . Texas and T.C.U. tied for 7th in Big 12 with conference records of 9&9 and season records of 20&11. Who stays home, UNT or them?
  7. So what does it take to have your jersey hung in the rafters? John Savage was 1st team all MVC twice in the early 60's when the conference was one of the best basketball conferences around and consisted of Cincy,Drake, Bradley,and Wichita just to name a few. In addition Savage was named honorable mention All American which I don't think Davis was.
  8. Thanks for compiling this information.
  9. I understand your thought process, but what marketing power do we have? Our average home attendance is 4,000 with an on campus venue and 45,000 students. Hopefully we will prevail in the American tournament but we have an uphill climb.
  10. I just don't know what we bring to the table. Our home loss against UTSA when we were a 13.5 point favorite is hard to fathom. We finished 7th in AAC in regular season with a 17&14 record which is not NIT worthy. We lost to USF,Charlotte, twice to FAU, UAB, and split with SMU, all of whom finished higher than us in conference play.
  11. Memphis & SMU projected for NIT. In addition UAB and Charlotte are also ahead of us.
  12. We probably need to win at least two tournament games to be considered. Also the professional pundits predict if FAU beats USF in AAC final that both teams might get a bid, but if USF wins FAU won't.
  13. WK wanted to go but the MAC told them it was a package deal or nothing. MTSU said no so the TOPPERS were stuck. Now that the MAC has brought U.MESS back into the fold I wonder if there is any interest by either party to revisit WK's status.
  14. Better run it by a family practice attorney first.
  15. Not trying to look at a half empty cup but 4,000 average is still less that 10% of student body, which is sorta of pitiful.
  16. However, to put in perspective, how large was the student body in 76/77 and 2011/2012 vs 45,000 today? The number that I think is most important is percentage of student body in attendance at our basketball and football games.
  17. Thanks for your service to FT. Worth as well as your passionate and long time support on North Texas athletics.I first met you at the 1st New Orleans Bowl over 20 years ago. Trust me , at age 81 the next 20 years of your live will fly by[like an eagle?]. Mine, not so much. Take care,Ward White.
  18. I would probably switch the Army loss with the UTSA win. Also USA could have a solid team returning but with the coaching change the players could have bailed.
