i say, instead of everyone complaining back and forth about being positive or negaitive, maybe we can just all behave like adults and cheer on OUR team! though it may not feel like it sometimes, but were ALL mean green fans and i think, just for once, instead of reading all this back and forth crap, that maybe we could all just be fans and stop trying to one up each other, or diminish players, former player, coaches ect...lets for once just be fans and enjoy the fact that we have a football team that is rebuilding, and hopefully providing some positive results. Through thick or thin, support OUR team, even if you cant stand the coach, or players, or recruits or whatever. support OUR team, were not the enemy of each other, were the MEAN GREEN FAMILY and we all need to start acting like it...

soapbox done.

Yes we are all Mean Green fans but we have a right to be critical of this program. If we won't then believe me no one will because its hard enough getting fans as it is for this program. I refuse just to be content with just having a football program. I am tired of NT half assing things when it comes to athletics. Yes it is better than before but nothing like where we should be. After two years of Dodgeball it is really embarassing and a beat down watching NT football. The program needs to be held accountable and that still doesn't mean that we are not being Mean Green fan or good fans.

Well, I think Emmitt was on to something when he was saying that the administration (I'm guessing that starts with the AD and goes up to the President, if not the Chancellor) hasn't given TD all he needed to work with.

Although I'm sure that's true, past administrations could have done a lot more to pave the way. Really though, it will never be enough for fans to be critical, even to the point of saying they plan to support the program LESS in the future (most of this was said without reference to economic problems, but rather to discontent with results on the field).

Folks, it's true that more could be done with what we are spending, but to truly excel in our academic and athletic programs, alumni will simply have to become more supportive with time, energy, and money. Certainly there's always blame to be found, but the authorship of our university's future is something which we all have the responsibility of sharing, as students, alumni, staff, and extended family.

Thank you in advance for your support,

Dwayne Taylor

      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.
