No reason for the absence?

"The upcoming season will be the second Gilmore has missed during his time at UNT.

Former UNT head coach Darrell Dickey confirmed in the days leading up to the 2006 campaign that Gilmore had failed to meet NCAA eligibility requirements for his sophomore season."

= Grades then? Now?

I'm now sure Vitto reads this message board. He's determined to tick off the UNT faithful by working in 2-10 into every story he writes. I can just see it now ...

Vitto is writing a story about UNT's enrollment ... "and UNT is expecting to have record enrollment in the fall which is surprising considering the football team had a very disappointing 2-10 season last year." Or ... "UNT is looking forward to getting the law school started which is surprising considering the football team had a very disappointing 2-10 season last year."

I can see Vitto's tombstone ... "Husband, father, and beat writer for the disappointing 2-10, 2007 North Texas football team."

Geez ... and some wonder why Dodge doesn't seem to like this guy.

Hey, here's a thought. If you're so sensitive about having your 2-10 record mentioned in articles....don't go 2-10.

Brett does a good job.

Seconded.

EDIT: And, unlike some of his critics, at least the man can spell.

LOL!!!

And just another reason why I don't get all that excited about recruiting each year.

Gilmore was among the Mean Green’s highest-rated recruits in its 2005 class and was ranked among the top 100 recruits in the state by the Houston Chronicle after his senior season.

No matter how good his limited stats were, nt is better off without him. The program needs to surround the itsef with good student athletes at this point and he was definately not one.

      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.
