Have you seen the returning team Benford has?!?!?!?  What was that Mark Twain quote? "The Report of his death have been greatly exaggerated"  Benford has not been all that up to this point, but we only graduated 3 players, (1 starter, and 1 with playing time) and have a great, young team coming back...  Before you hammer the guy, at least come out and see what he has....

Remind me, is this 2012 or 2016?

Your anger at me is quite comical. If you are too stupid to realize what the banner accomplished, I can't really help you.  You think I'm a D? Eh, that's ok, because I think you are an arrogant,

I thought this post was a joke after reading the first sentence. After depressingly reading the rest I'm going tap submit reply after typing this sentence and angrily stare at this bush I'm parked in front of.

So, is all that talent going to organize and coach itself? Benford ain't the one to get it done. Seeing me at a game sometime will be when Benford is no longer coaching at UNT.

He can recruit but he cannot coach, a good coach does not lose by 30.  I would go out on limb and say we don't win the title next year.   He has been out coached by teams with a lot less talent.  Sorry year four will be the same as the others, a big disappointment.

I am wrong on everything.  I don't think any coach should be given a five year contract, four at the most because that gives him a chance to build his team.  If he sucks in year four most likely he will suck in year 5.

He had the dream team in year 1. There was no building!

"Best men basketball UNT has ever seen" I believe were RV's words.

He inherited a very talented (and experienced?) team.

What if they've already been out within the past 4 years, did not like what they saw, screamed, then chose not to come back? Do they have a right to an opinion or just the folks that sit through all 4 dreadful seasons?

Were you still positive at the end of that 32 point home ass-whipping Southern Illinois dropped on us? Why would the haters need to see a single game last year? Maybe they've already seen Benford lead one of our most talented teams in history to a 12-20 record and didn't care to watch the rerun.

I went to 7 or 8 home games. After the WKU game I'm done and will continue to be done going to bball games until Benford is gone.

When your screaming is ignored, especially for what will be 4 years, you simply stop caring and walk away.

I call it the Villarreal effect.

So, quick question, since I live 6 hours away, and my trips home don't always coincide with home games, can I talk, or am I not a good enough fan?

I got sucked in and had season tickets in year 1.  I saw first hand in year 1, the man can't coach.

      Its in Queens, not Manhattan! I briefly looked at SJU when looking for grad schools, its a very unique university, its not for every student and that includes athletes. I dont know if they have the easiest time recruiting, sure its NYC, but there are plenty of quality programs near NYC. They do have Pitino, but how long is he sticking around?

      A few HSO's

      1: One big problem with the NIL (aka pay for play) is that the universities are what draw the fans, not the players. People argue that "they deserve a piece of the pie", etc., but the big money comes from rabid fans and alumni of the schools, not from fans wanting to watch certain players. I wish they would form a minor league football and see how much interest there is...wait, we already have that. It's called the XFL, USFL, UFL and the players don't make much money ($5,500/wk) and there aren't many fans at the games. Put the Rengades in Alabama uniforms and the Stallions in Auburn uniforms and you'd sell out AT&T stadium. Why, because the players don't matter, the universities are what matter (as it pertains to attendance). Another example is the NBA D-League. What kind of money are those guys making? (I'll save you the Google search, they make $25K/yr). I have to assume that's peanuts compared to many of the NIL deals players are getting. If you want to get paid, go pro. Nobody is making you go to college to get a free education that will benefit you for the rest of your life. 2: I hate the argument that "coaches make big money and can leave for another job whenever they want to." See the last two sentences of the previous point. If you want to be able to do that, go pro. Make it your career just like the coaches have done. There are a very limited number of head coaching jobs at the college level and these coaches have put in LONG hours and worked their way up to the positions that they are in. Nobody was giving them millions of dollars when they were a GA busting their tail for nothing.
