Did someone say Jasper Floyd has availability left? That would be great if he could come back. Lorient, Newell, and Floyd is a great place to start.

And this was a prime opportunity to grow that fan base.

I agree, but I would put it on the "Meaner and Greener" board. More fitting with that crowd.

Quit giving him ideas and shopping him around. We need him! 😂

Hey! Let's not downplay the job that @UNT 90 Grad does. He puts these together for the Collin country crew and it is a great time! Since it is the Alumi community, I am not sure the university has any direct involvement.

I hear those 61 Bobans will be attending the luncheon, if anyone wants to meet them

Remember when Buffalo let the Bills fanbase come to the stadium to shovel away snow in time for a playoff game? Doesn't seem like a UNT staff luncheon would be as tall of a task.

The attendance counter is a work from home position. He/She only counts what they could see from the main camera angle.

Not as good as back when we were playing Texas Tech in football in 2000. We were trailing like 13-0 at the time, and I turned to everyone around me and said "Interception returned for a touchdown." Literally the very next play that's what happened. I swore off trying to really predict plays after that since I was a legend at that point. It became such a gag that it still gets trotted out amongst a few of my friends to this day whenever I'm in town.

Being 21 and storming the court after beating OSU at our house...awesome times

How about @Dannymacfan be allowed to voice this curiosity, but maybe start a single, global thread dedicated to Hodge news and rumors. Danny, you could have one thread and put all of these links into them, instead of starting a new thread for every new piece of news? Just a suggestion.

Let's go. Pack the Pit and while there, let Jared and Co. know how you feel about us having to travel to OSU. These ladies deserve the same support as the men. When our shooting is on and we play pressure D, we are fun to watch.

I hear they're both hosting luncheons for UNT part-time employees.

Considering how incompetent the AD is, yes, I do think it could be a coincidence. Regardless, I'm looking forward to Ousmane fouling out in 10 minutes.

No, move the luncheon into the IPF.

What do we know about OK St.? * Located in Stillwater, OK * Founded in 1890 as Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College. * They live by the Cowboy Code. https://go.okstate.edu/about-osu/traditions/cowboy-code.html * Considered "America's Healthiest Campus" * 26,805 students enrolled by Fall of '25. * Famous alumni include Garth Brooks, T. Boone Pickens, Daniel Cormier, Viktor Hovland, Bill Self, Reba McEntire, Ricky Fowler, Barry Sanders, and Dexter Manley although later sadly found to be illiterate and Denton Ryan's own Spencer Sanders. * Considered America's Friendliest College Town. * 17-17 on the year, 7-13 in the Big XII. (13-3 at home and 3-10 on the road). Gee, wonder why we would like them in Denton? * Key wins: Beat SMU twice, Miami (FL), Seton Hall * Common opponents: Lost 86-78 to FAU, won 76-55 vs. Tulsa, * Results of interest: Lost 80-65 to a bad OU, beat Tarleton 66-61, lost to Houston 60-47 & 72-63, lost to TX Tech 64-54 & 93-55. * NIT results: Beat Wichita St. 89-79 & smuT 85-83. * Led in scoring by G Bryce Thompson at 12.9 ppg, C Abou Ousmane at 12.4 ppg and Marchelus Avery at 11.4 ppg. * As a team, shoots 43% from the field, 33% from three and 72% from the line. * Average 73.4 ppg while giving up 76.8 ppg.

Their opponents score 740 in the first and 800 in the second. Let's kick their ass.

I hear Ron Howard's voice saying "and it did". Well.... I am too, but imagine being able to go to the game.

Correct. However, that fan base is part of the problem as it is likely only about 10-20k people. There's a lot of talk about the 400k alumni in the area but the reality is that probably 95% of them don't give a rat's a$$ about NT sports. They didn't when they were in school and they certainly don't 20 years later.

Please send President Keller an email at president@unt.edu and voice your displeasure. I know it won't change anything but at least I feel like I got a chance to let him know how a lot of alumni feel about this blunder.

Again, it should make absolutely no difference who has official ownership of the SP. Decisions are not made by some mystical entity, they are made by the usual chain of command of the administration. Board of Regents, President, Athletic Director, etc.

Actually, the more I've thought about this the more I think this would be a cool idea. Move the court over to the IPF and surround it with those temporary bleachers they use in golf. You could probably build a makeshift 3,000-seat arena.

It would be great if we could start scheduling games with you guys during the regular season in both basketball and football.

2661…but 61 of them were part of a Boban look-a-like conference, so they filled up a lot more space than your average 61 people

Looked like a lot more than 2600 on TV...
