Not the “Trio” I was expecting, but Vito nailed it.

Nice write up, and Tylor’s sentiments will only endear him to us fans even more.  Can’t wait to see these guys take it up another notch this year, especially when Jones is healthy!

I love our team and college basketball, but the unmonitored, constant recruiting of players that are currently on another university's roster pisses me off to no end.  This is meddling that is prohibited in all professional leagues yet the NCAA just lets it go.  We aren't the minor leagues for the more well known programs.  I know it is the equivalent in waiting up for Santa Claus, but the NCAA better get this under control or it will ruin the game.

This is why I love Perry:

“People try to throw a lot of things at you to try to get you to chase big-school names or NIL numbers,” Perry said. “For me, it wasn’t about that. It was about loyalty. The guys here were calling me when the big schools weren’t.

“For them to be loyal to me made me feel like I owed them the same loyalty to come back. I love it here in Denton, love the fans and the community. It meant a lot what North Texas did for me.”
