I don't think it's unfair to say that if we win this game the WMD's will be found and Obama won't win re-election.

Respecting the magnitude of Thursday's matchup, I'll keep this simple: Yes. Oh Yeaahh!

This game can nearly clinch the division. How many times in the past have we joked about the magnitude of a single game, or a "huge stretch" of games(or again A game for comedic value)? The importa

Tristan Thomoson really carried this team tonight. He was just about the only offensive weapon the entire 1st half and the 1st 10 minutes of the second half. Great game. Hope he is Ok after the spill he took.

Does anyone know what the deal was with the ULL players throwing some punches? George and Hank(??) saw it happen towards the end of the post game show. Said it involved ULL players who came back out of the tunnel onto the floor. Made it sound like it was ULL fighting each other. I just hope none of our students were involved.

Sadly, Kedrick Hogans was involved in the fight with the ULL players and got jumped. He is okay though. Kedrick seems to have somewhat of a rep as a talker and possible hothead. I assume and can't firm that what happened was he was talking with some ULA LA acquaintances since he was from Louisiana too. He may have talked a little too much smack and then got jumped by the ticked off losers from Louisiana. Coach Jones and Coach Foy spent some time working to calm him down and that was not easy.

We forget how much of a father that Coach Jones has to be in addition to his coaching duties. That's a big job too you know.

Cops from UNT where there (woo hoo....lol) and did not initiate any arrests or criminal charges. I don't think there were injuries either.

Kedrick needs to chill.

When did all this happen? And was it in the North tunnel? I was there and saw people getting on the buses and missed it.

Great win tonight. Made us sweat it out in the first half. Wished I wasn't on duty saturday night. Several of us could use a nice little warm-up road trip to Monroe. We always seem to have an interesting game there. I think the entire campus was built on an indian burial ground or something?

Also, spoke with Dr. Bataille after the game. It's just a feeling I got but I don't think we have heard the last of her situation? It was great to see so many show support for her. She will be missed.

After you left in the tunnel away from the autographs close to MGC room. It just sucks it happened while there were still a lot of kids around.

Great win!!! Even though we were not shooting well in the first half, I wasn't too worried because ULL didn't pull away.

Hey Rick, didn't get a chance to talk to you during the game but our kids seemed to hit it off. My family was sitting right behind you.

Oh ok. :lol: Yeah they did. Your little boy is very cute. He was really decked out in Mean Green for the game. I apologize for not introducing myself. Next time perhaps?

What is the story on Tyren Johnson? That guy looked like he could suit up for any AQ school. We played really nice defense on him in the first half, but then when UNT started to pull away in the second, it became the Tyren Johnson show. He's the only reason that game was close. If he wasn't so sloppy with his feet (travelled 2-3 times), he would have had more pts too.

Several friends of mine who have played basketball with Kedrick in the school gym have told me that he is a really nice and laid back guy.

Found a link on the LaLa message board about two players being suspended due to last night's "altercation. It leaves them with six players.

It sounds like the Roberson kid is a trouble maker. When you consider that both of those players hardly play in the game, then what were they so ticked about? It sounds like Kedrick got jumped by both of them. ....cowards!

      Why the NCAA model is dying and will be replaced

      The P2 schools make 5x our annual revenue. Five times! And most of their revenue is from media deals, ticket sales and donations while our revenue is mostly from student fees. This article mentions a possible 22% revenue distribution to players (collectively bargained pro sports are closer to 50%.). As far as I can tell, our revenue from all sources is running at around $44M annually so 22% is about $9.6M that would go to the players. Where would this money come from? What would we have to cut to get it? Could we increase donations to cover that? I doubt it. I don’t think that you can ask students to pay the salaries of other “students” playing sports. That is not right. I wouldn’t have an issue with the players being compensated via media deals, ticket sales and alumni donations. But at North Texas, that ain’t big bucks. I just worry that the train has left the station on competing in football. Especially since there are teams in the P2 who can afford to pay their BACKUP quarterback more than our entire NIL budget. And every good player on our football team last season has left our school for more money at other schools. At that point, why even pretend that we can compete for a national championship in football? And if you can’t win, why not play something else? Let’s find a different level with a sustainable model that provides an opportunity to really compete. Basketball is a different story because you can put all of your resources into a rotation of just 8 players. And I do believe that we can still compete at a national level in basketball.
