the bottom falling out at Memphis is hurting a lot of post-season aspirations in the AAC. I think they're squarely a bubble team now. if FAU wins the conference tourney, I wouldn't be shocked if this

I give the FAU game a pass because even though we led most of the game, I was never comfortable.  There were stretches tonight where I thought we were gonna blow UAB out.  This is one of the most disa

SDSU, Nevada, USU, and New Mexico can't be ignored. They are legit. Their fringe programs are Boise and CO State. Well, we played one of those guys and we let 1 of them to come back from 6 down under

A) If you thought it was leaving Edwards hand as anything but a shot that's on you (because that was play called by CRH)

B) If you thought it was leaving Edwards hand as anything but a shot that's on you (because he doesn't pass i.e. selfish)

C) If you thought it was leaving Edwards hand as anything but a shot that's on you (because he was the best option)

D) None of the above

E) All of the above

 

E, definitely...though I don't like the wording on B...I don't think a volume shooter is necessarily "selfish"

clearly it was drawn up to get JE running downhill...one screener around the arc, one pass option short corner, one pass option opposite but with the likely thought/intent that Edwards was going to take the responsibility of the shot

Still can't believe the ref didn't call that 

just from memory, I kinda don't blame the ref...maybe if I saw it again, but I recall it being super innocuous and thought that if we was bleeding it was bc he accidentally bit his lip.

thought it was at worst a 2 on the Official Kermit Washington On-Court Punch Scale

And the kids working the concession stands is a bad idea. I got charged $60 bucks for three sodas, popcorn and a burger ? 

To my knowledge, I thought its a fund raiser for an organization they're in. Like they work the concession stand, and they get a donation of 10% of the profits of the concession sales that night or something like that.

The kids and parents were awesome and nice. It was just too many people behind a concession stand all over the place and kids asking questions about how to use the register.

Oh man, my bad. I thought you were trying to highlight the price being too much.  Complete misread on my part.

Another weekday and more time for people to make it to Denton - I would have thought we'd had seen more than half the attendance of SMU's game.

8pm starts are simply not ideal.   I have five season tickets but only used 1 because my three kids are in school.   I know I am not alone in this.

This is what happens at High school football games too. I have mixed feelings on it. I like the support, but it does make us feel a little bit on the little league side.

haha I guess I'm alone in that, I think it's endearing.  A sense of small town (not Old Denton), community involvement.

Keep (New) Denton weird.

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      It's easier for us to say it's fun since we're not the ones who have to recruit an entire new team every year, but it's honestly exciting to see how the new team is built. The max exodi of beloved players sucks, but in this new age losing guys like TP, Drez, Rubin and Aaron doesn't have to mean a several-year rebuild. Now we can "retool" and even get better. I think this year was more of a gut punch because it felt to me and many others that Rubin and Aaron were Mean Green for life. They've been the constant leaders throughout the past turnover. But even healthy we weren't the most talented team in the conference. And I trust Hodge. The past seven years Grant and Hodge have run a clean program and as much as I love the guys who have played for us, I trust Hodge and Forte will continue recruiting players who will be good representatives of the university, even if only for a year. I also agree we need two more PF's - at least one who can space the floor shooting 3's. Assuming we have at least three scholarships left, so assume we'll see another guard. I'd like to see us bring on one guy who's averaged 18PPG or more. Doesn't matter which position though it'd be a nice changeup for it to be a high scoring big man.

      The last home games of the 2023-24 school year

      Weather has become a factor in a lot of games this season. Wet spring has really made this softball season pleasant. Feel like we had several 90+ degree games last season.

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Here's what the conference tournament would look like if it started today. Finished 2nd or 3rd is the difference between having to win just two games in two days, or four games in four days. Wednesday, May 8 - First Round Game 1: No. 5 Wichita State vs No. 8 South Florida - 10 a.m. (ESPN+) Game 2: No. 4 Tulsa vs No. 9 UTSA - 1 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 3: No. 6 UAB vs No. 7 East Carolina - 4 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 4: No. 10 Memphis vs No. 3 North Texas - 7 p.m. (ESPN+) Thursday, May 9 - Second Round Game 5: Winner WSU/USF vs Winner Tulsa/UTSA - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 6: Winner UAB/ECU vs Winner Memphis/UNT - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Friday, May 10 - Semifinals Game 7: Winner WSU/USF/Tulsa/UTSA vs No. 1 FAU - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 8: Winner UAB/ECU/Memphis/UNT vs No. 2 Charlotte - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Saturday, May 11 - Championship Game 9: Winner Game 7 vs Winner Game 8 - 11 a.m. (ESPN2)

      Yes, win 2 of 3 in Charlotte and should be at least Top 2. If we do that and there's a three-way tie for first at 19-8, I'd imagine we'd take the top spot because we'd be 4-2 vs. the field, FAU 3-3, and Charlotte 2-4 in that hypothetical. Thanks! Wasn't able to watch that game, just kept up on Twitter.

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Regardless of what happens tomorrow.....we need to win 2 of 3 in Charlotte....right? As to backup catcher Moffitt......in our last game at Memphis....she tripped over first base....and fell on her wrist. I'm guessing it's a sprained wrist. As to backup catcher....I don't think we have one. But they used Olguin to warm up people in the bullpen. And remember on Kalei....she had to catch 16 innings last night.....and today's game was early. So might just be gassed. Go Mean Green!!!
