I'm for cutting anyone that isn't getting the job done unless there is a reason that he/she cannot. While I'd prefer alums they must be qualified. This is a critical time for promotions, sales, and donations. It's like not getting a second chance to make a first impression.

For me, I'd prefer to see a good mix of both UNT grads and non-UNT grads. having too many UNT grads does not bring in fresh ideas from other successful places...having too few UNT grads makes for lack of tradition and continuity. For me...give me a good mix of both. I know of several UNT grads working in areas all across the UNT campus including athletics these days. The days when a UNT grad could not get hired at UNT seems to be pretty much over if you actually look at the numbers.

Give me the person that excells at what they do, regardless of where they graduated.

Hire the best candidate and them let them do their job.

If they are a UNT grad, great. If not, so what.

I agree, but in the event that two potential employees are identical in qualifications, go with the UNT grad. If for nothing else, that person already has pride and will probably be more enticed to stay at the school long-term than a non-alum. I'd hate to have someone do great things in the athletic dept. just to see them get scooped up by their alma mater.

Here's the job posting: http://www.higheredj...bCode=175653942

So, anyone have any news about Brian? I thought he did a great job with the stadium. Did he get a new gig elsewhere? Sure wish him well and thank him for all he has done for the Mean green nation. Well done, Brian. THANK YOU!

Based on Sound Man's cryptic comments, you may have to look elsewhere than gmg.com for your answers.

Nope...seems we have found right here on GMG.Com that Brian is now working at Cowboy Stadium. Good for Bruian...hopefuuly, I'll run into him one of these days and will be able to say hello and to thank him in person for the great work he did with Apogee. Thanks for the update GreenLegend37.

      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.

      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.
