That 4th and goal pretty much sums it up for me...

We have to burn time outs down in the redzone to get a play in, so okay...fine, we'll get a good creative play called or we'll hand it to Jamario and let him do the work...but no, we run some broken a## play that looks like a high school JV squad. Give me a freakin' break.

I've been relatively quiet for the past season and half on this topic...but I'll say it now. Athletically, we are not that different than Arkansas State. However, their coaches...along with every other set of coaches we face...put our staff to SHAME.

Clean house, RV, please...before you have nothing but an empty house to come home to.

1: Teach the team the importance of each conference game. Understand that you don't get to go to New Orleans with 2 losses if MTSU and Arky St are 3-0 in conference play.

2: Stop being "paycheck" players. Seems like some of them are out there because it pays for their school or they have to. You can see that quite a few players lack any intensity.

I have never posted before . I usually check in on the so called experts on this board and get the temp of the MGN......HOWEVER- We just played a team that appeared to be (physically the same as us) and got outplayed, outcoached, outhustled, out everything. I have never been one to jump on the staff, but tonight was RIDICULOUS. HOW HOW HOW do you come out of a time out and run a busted play roll out w/ Meager. The thing that has really forced me to post (Like I said I'm a first timer @ this) was the lack of emotion from the staff on the sideline. Crossing of the arms, distant stare, etc.... It is bad for the team and I feel like it starts w/ the head coach. I WANT SOME EMOTION on the sidelines and I think the kids want it too. Tonight should have been as an emotional performance as any and I do beleive it showed in spurts on the field, but every side line shot I saw on the tube it looked extremely ho hum and let's get out of here. I am very tired of seeing UNT unprepared.

Are you saying that we got out-coached? ohmy.gif

You could get into real trouble saying that. rolleyes.gif

      How Mean Green softball is shaping up in 2025 and beyond

      In my relatively short time as a Mean Green fan, I don't think I've seen a team so carried by seniors. This weekend's series was the last three games at Lovelace for 10 Mean Green seniors, and all but one (Truitt) was either an everyday starter or saw significant playing time. Here's who will be returning barring any transfers. All classifications are what they will be in 2025. Likely starters (in my opinion) Rylee Nicholson (SR) - UT Cierra Simon (SR) - SS Madison Conley (SO) - UT Tatum Sparks (JR) - UT Elizabeth Moffitt (SO) - C Jodie Epperson (JR) - OF Returning Pitching Staff Skylar Savage (SR) Mackenzie Childers (JR) Kayleigh Smith (SO) Returning, but will they play? Mikaela Olguin (JR) - OF Emma Grahmann (SR) - IF Blayze McNemar (SO or RS-F?) - OF Maci George (SO or RS-F?) - IF There doesn't appear to be a website to find commits for softball, so through social media, here are the incoming freshmen I have found: Katy Brock, OF, Mabank Shelby Buffington, P, Franklin Page (Tennessee) Rylie Harris, C, Forney Gracie Mahoney, P, Macomb Dakota (Michigan) - another 6 footer, like Skylar Ausha Moore, IF, Carl Albert HS (Midwest City, OK) Taylor Platt, OF, Argyle Committed Inbound Freshmen for 2026 Eva Daniels, IF, Forney Laila Nobles, IF, Pearland Addie Perry, UT/C, Aledo Love the Metroplex talent we are bringing in. Forney's currently the #1 team in the state. But looks like we still have a handful of spots to fill next year. Going to need to improve the hitting and power. Maybe we can land some home run threats in the portal who want to get closer to home. I'll post stories and highlights of the commits shortly.

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      Hopefully after a few more years we will all be more accepting of heartbreak. I got used to it in high school.

      Yes, foolish us fans for thinking players are here in the program and loyal to the school.

      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.
