Basketball tonight

[greenjoe]

I'm going tonight for the SFA game (with former NT player Danny Kaspar Head Coach at SFA)

I'm betting zero cheerleaders show up (just like the last 3 games)

And I'll say 8 Dancers are not only present, but rocking the Super Pit.

Place your bets now. Results tonight after the game.

[UNTFan23]

I'd take the dancers and the points.

[eulesseagle]

GreenJoe--

Come on man. It is vacation time.

I expect to see no cheerleader (because of vacation break) and the same dancers who were at the U of H game (probably because they live in Denton).

NT by 15 with another 15 steals.

[ntsumgspe]

There's a game tonight ? Gee, I just looked on MeanGreenSports.com and it isn't the main story. Why would I expect that ?

[MeanGreenBuzz]

Don't mean to be picky, but the cheeleaders havn't been at the last 4 men's games or any of the last 4 Women's games for a total of missing the last 8 home basketball games.

As for the points: NT 87 - SFA 63

[greenjoe]

The schedule card is in your season ticket packet.

Don't tell the team it is vacation time.

No it isn't the main story. Could it possibly be due to the Holiday Season? There is an events calendar to the right that shows tonights game along with other upcoming games. Did you bother to look?

The "Holiday Season" didn't prevent them from having a story about the loss to UH. And yes, I do realize that the events calendar is on the right. The point is that the marketing of North Texas sports is PATHETIC !

[greenjoe]

The over/under I was refering to was how many Dancers and cheerleaders would be at the game.

NT will "jack the lumber" up SFA

I again say 8 Dancers and zero cheerleaders.

[Stan R]

marketing unt basketball is like trying to sell poop in a box because no one cares until the team stops sucking

the cheerleading coach gave me a reach around at a party

WOW Quoner! That is profound.

But seriously, welcome to the board. I noticed your username and I thought it might have been inspired from Seinfeld. Remember the epsiode where george and kramer were playing scrabble?

George - "Quone? that's not a word."

Kramer - "Yes it is!"

Georege "Use it in a sentence"

Kramer "To quone something".

[CO Green]

anyone have the actual numbers?

[UNTFan23]

I think I saw 6 last night.

[greenjoe]

12 Dancers

5 cheerleaders (2 female-3 male)

Welcome back cheerleaders. We missed you.

Is this all the cheerleaders we have left ?

[CO Green]

Somewhere close to that. Close to half the squad quit because of the coach that just resigned.

[UNTSportsGuy]

The cheerleader thing is pretty complicated. But they all do football because competions are held in November. But most of them will quit after competion because they no longer want to work. The whole situation is really messed up.

And they won a "national championship" in the weaker competion. And they refused to go to the next level. That is where things really get complicated.

[CO Green]

Wow, that is really mixed up. Let's break it down.

But they all do football because competions are held in November. But most of them will quit after competion because they no longer want to work.

Competition for UCA College Nationals is held in mid-January. Competition for NCA is held in late April. If anyone quit after competition with UCA they would miss out on half the basketball games. If they quit after competition with NCA they don't miss any.

And they won a "national championship" in the weaker competion. And they refused to go to the next level.

All of the national championships that were won were won in NCA. That is by far not weaker competition. I am curious to hear where you heard it was the weaker competition. NCA is one of the top cheerleading companies in the world.

[UNTSportsGuy]

That is what I was told from someone who used to work for the cheerleading orginization.

Weaker by means that they could have gone up another level, but choose not to.

I appreciate your input but your informant was misinformed. A switch in companies from NCA to UCA is not a vertical switch but a lateral switch.

Quit because they didn't like the coach, or mad at the school because he resigned?

[greenjoe]

Growing up, we had a phrase we would say when one of our pals got mad and walked off the game.

"Winners never quit, quitters never win."

We're probably too old for that now, but it was the first thing that came to my mind when I read the above.

[UNT_92_Fan]

i actually met one of the cheerleaders at a new years party last night in my hometown and she was talking abotu hoe much of a 'douchebag' (her words) that the coach was and how she had quit...then he quit and she was thinking of trying to come back....

Help me out, were you a cheerleader?

If so, did you travel with the football team last year?

[CO Green]

Yes I was a cheerleader. I went to all the away football games during the 2004 season.
