DRC: UNT aiming for record start in game against Southern Miss

Recommended Posts

I'm sure I'll get blasted by the old timers for this one...but here it goes....I really, really hope that we beat Southern Miss for alot of reasons, but most of all, I'm tired of seeing "our best season" since the 1950's or 1970's or whatever..... Let's set record seasons at least in 2000's... Those references to decades-old record seasons just shows how overall stagnant we've been in basketball through the years... No disrespect intended to those successful teams of decades-past, but it's time for teams of today to set new records and truly excel!

Completely agree my friend. I’ve had the same thoughts...so many records at North Texas are decades or almost half a century old!

I imagine most "old timers" would love to see us once again achieve and finally surpass those old heights before they die.

Did you know Hayden Fry coached both football and basketball in 1910 and we would have won the national title if the NCAA had recognized our 134-0 record?

We're usually talking about 15 wins in mid-February if we're lucky. Think this one is worth missing out on a little of the Cowboy's game to see in person.

No

Hence why it is such a struggle to get fans to come to games - there are tons of other entertainment options.
