This is a pretty good home stretch. UNC-Wilmington has been to the tourney recently, Lamar is coached by Billy Tubbs (hope for a little Fake Billy on the Ticket) and TCU.

Friday night home games are not good for attendance, conflicts with traffic and high school football. :(

If those are kept on Friday night, I wonder if they could be moved to 8:00 tipoff. Is that too late for most fans? The later start would allow for a little pregame camaraderie.

I don't recall the schedule dates but I believe that these two Friday night games will be during the playoffs. Some playoffs could be on Friday but some are on Saturday, in conflict with college football games.

If they had the first game on Saturday, it would conflict with our last football home game vs. Idaho. If the second date were moved to Saturday it wouldn't be quite as bad but there would still be those that make the trek to Jonesboro that wouldn't be able to see it.

Weeks 1 and 2 of the UIL Football playoffs, to be exact. While Ryan will find tougher going this year in 5-A, Denton HS will be a favorite in their 4-A district, and likely playing on both those nights.

Attendance at those games will be bad, potentially under 1,000.

Here's hoping I'm wrong.

Not everyone is high school football fans, although granted some Mean Green fans are, you won't see most of the students going to the games, going to high school playoffs games. But granted, attendence probably won't be that great considering the schools that we play in those two games, just like Hardin Simmons and SE OK St. last year.

Also I don't know if this will stay the same, but the men and women play on the same day in the Super Pit a total of 3 times: Nov. 19, Dec. 16, and Feb. 12. I am guessing that this to boost attendence to both games. On December 16th, the women's team has the nationally ranket UT Longhorns coming to the Super Pit.

the whole stadium will have to be full of green for the TCU game. b/c you know that there will be allot of tcu fans there and I would hate for a home game for us  to turn into a home game for tcu

Unless the athletic department actually starts doing some marketing for basketball, don't hold your breath. We had a very weak showing against Baylor last year. The only hope is that the student section continues to grow as it did throughout the season last year.

I've seen it grow throughout the year each and every year. We seem to start all over on the excitement level each new bball season though. I think it is exactly for the reason you mentioned, it is not even close to marketed. Joe Blow at school has no clue there is a bball game that night.

And Bingo was his Name-o.

The only marketing I saw for the basketball team's last season was an occasional commericial on ESPN. That probably works pretty well to get local sports fans to come by and see the team play, but the AD needs to try to get all the students in the dorms to go to games. The AD can do something about that, but RHA needs to do something about it also. RAs need to have schedules up in every hall in every dorm, and they need to try to make an event out of games. They usually have one game a season that they have RHA night or whatever, but every single game should be packed with dorm residents.

      SB at Charlotte (5/3-5/24)

      It all comes down to this. The softball ladies are a game behind FAU and Charlotte for first place in the conference. The Mean Green already own the tiebreaker 2-1 with FAU, so winning two of three in Charlotte this weekend would also be huge in that it would give the ladies the tiebreaker over both teams in case there is a three-way tie at 19-8. The biggest reason to try to take two of three in Charlotte is that second and third place in the conference is the difference between having to win just two games in two days to make it to the NCAA Tournament, or four games in four days. We can't finish lower than third. Fourth place Tulsa is 3 games behind UNT, and we swept them earlier in the year. Tulsa plays at FAU this weekend. Charlotte will be a tough out. Last year by way of playing one fewer conference game due to a rainout, they finished with one loss fewer than UNT and won the regular season title. However, we took two of three at home to the 49ers before beating them again in the conference tournament. They still made it to the NCAA Tournament as an at-large. This year, Charlotte has taken 2 of 3 at USF and vs. Wichita State while sweeping the likes of UAB and Tulsa, and are on an 11-game win streak overall. Standings going into the final weekend. The conference tournament is May 8-11 in Wichita. If we make it to the final on Saturday at 11 am, be prepared to drop everything and head up to Kansas to support! SCHOOL CONF CPCT. OVERALL PCT.

      Texas Tech season tickets sold out this year

      Dog shit excuse. It has nothing to do with anything. It's one of the same several excuses used in an attempt to put a curtain up and around the real problems.

      They do have a lot of advantages in that an entire region of the state is theirs.

      Why the NCAA model is dying and will be replaced

      We are in the best conference now that we have ever been in since the old MVC days. We host conference games this season with Tulane, Tulsa, Army, etc and those are great. Right where we need to be. Much better than the old SLC or even SunBelt. Playing some Power Teams are fun in both football and basketball, actually the highlight of the schedules! I look more forward to our away game with Texas Tech than a home game with SFA, and I think most fans do too.
