Yeah that dude can recruit and got some running studs to Jonesboro. They play a fun relentless style of ball. It was a good test for our boys before they head to Stilly. GMG

It was funny because as I was bouncing around a Buffalo Wild Wings in Salt Lake City, I watched the screen to see if their Hail Mary went in. The tv guy lost the shot and we missed the final second. My only comfort was still seeing the crowd going crazy and the team storming the court. But weirder things have happened this is March Madness. A delicious win. Beat Okie State! GMG

I wish I wouldn’t have opened that luncheon link. It doesn’t even comprehend. Offer them a casino night event or weekend in Winstar to GTFO. It’s shocking I’m actually struggling with words that describe my surprise and I’ve seen a lot from 1986. Crazy. Just Win! GMG

Win two if them and I bet we get in.

I loved our free throwing tonight. Sometimes it is way off but the guys were dialed in tonight. Even the kids playing the game at timeout were drilling from the free throw line. Good job Green and White #4! If our will on D can dent their O this weekend, frustration in red and black will bubble over and our crowd will go cray cray. Tough but fun matchup ahead! GMG

The supporters section at FCD has an entire drum and horn cadence and sign that pumps Fire Nico every game. Unlike in downtown Dallas the stadium gleefully sings along without Guido dragging anyone out. That team just needs to embrace it at this point and make it a rallying cry. Great job tonight Maniacs, UNT Cheer and Spirit Dancers. Go Mean Green!!!!!

Well when I arrived at halftime they weren’t even scanning anymore. Only the security was screening. Tonight was for the diehards and we helped that team rock in the second half. I loved how organic the North Texas chant was tonight. Brilliant fans. Great job everyone wearing Green tonight. GMG

Hodges replacement is either a coach at Tech or at Baylor. If Hodges leaves and we go outside the box. The Grand Canyon coach looks legit. I think Hodge is back in Mean Green in 2025. GMG

Memphis would make sense as would Birmingham. And hello New Orleans! This should be a slam dunk in beignet town. Las Vegas is for all the western based conferences. I don’t get it. Thank you Fort Worth time for a change. Why not San Antonio? GMG

The Boise bracket would be tough. Just win one game at a time! GMG p.s. - it’s funny because the tournament becoming the SEC invitational is not the best thing for it. They are a deserving conference but 13 or 14 teams if Texas sneaks in begins the demise. Power to the leftover tournaments. There will be serious interest elsewhere which is exactly what they don’t want. Let’s see how these brackets play out. GMG

The teams left out of the dance will be amazing. Blue bloods coming bloods and some upstarts who make it fun: UVU. This is the year to get pumped about the other post season tournaments! GMG

As most coaches are. You build the culture the identity and reload with the competent coach who knows the system is a good recruiter understands the place and accomplishes. New Mexico San Diego State and FAU come to mind. We are doing that. I was so bummed last night after another deflating loss in the tourney. Barely made UAB sweat. And Memphis is beast. Then I woke this morning with perspective. Many programs envy our disappointed place on 3.16.25. The runs after January 1 are going to be fun. Lean into it enjoy it and build. Maybe we make a plank fall our way one day. Either way I wouldn’t trade the fun spring ball in Denton and in conference play gives us. These guys fight as coache’s leadership dictates. Taking prisoners NIT 25. GMG

I would put tarps on the upper levels with logos force everyone into the lower bowl. The concourse needs some restaurants and pop up bars. There is so much room in the concourse too. Have an indoor tailgate. With DJ craft beer and cocktails and tvs showing other games. A high tech Eastside pouring 8 crafts and featuring big screens. Also put tvs in the food stations showing our game when in line for drinks and popcorn like DATCU. How about a party lounge you could buy into on game days not just for donors but for people who want to have that admirals club feel just for that day. Keep the guy doing the rousing all game long. He’s strong and loud and encouraging. Finally plan the high profile events further out. I bet so many kids from all over Denton would have showed up for the past games promo. He is so popular and Dude Perfect promos around Denton schools would have sold that place out! GMG One more. Rip out a sliver of a section and make it a supporters section with just rails and cup holders. Standing only tickets $15 watch it become the second rowdiest section behind the Maniacs. I can’t stand sitting at games and these sections draw a special kind of hooligan.

I made one roadie this year and it was to Wichita. Saw almost the exact game twice. We roar out to a big lead and they scratch and claw back into the game. Glad we beat them up there before they got hot. They are headed in the right direction and those bars around the arena were popping with shocker fans. They will bring an even bigger crowd next year as they continue to rebuild. Good rivalry building . Awesome win MG! Beat Charlotte! GMG

Clemson, Florida State and North Carolina: just send us one big beautiful fee. ACC: get Tulane South Florida and Rice on the phone. It’s happening. Just keep winning Mean Green and we are golden. GMG

I agree about Jared. He seems to go with flow of the other Texas schools and our AAC brethren. Notice this department really only hops into marketing action after we biatch about poor marketing efforts then he puts some nice things together. But initiating is not what I think of when I see Jared. I see methodical, safe, absolute proof of results first before acting. A move to the PAC would require a Maverick. If we took the chance and moved with Texas State we would leapfrog UNLV UTSA the rest of the Mountain West, and others who would secretly desire to move to a higher profile league. GMG

I’ve gone back and forth on the PAC but it’s time we take the risky leap. The Boise AD says Texas is very important to the new PAC. Texas State is going and we represent North Texas. DFW Austin are rich markets. San Antonio is too close to TSU and I don’t think Memphis or Tulane will bite. We have the basketball programs and this is going to be a big 12 level bball league with St. Mary’s College, Gonzaga, San Diego State, Utah State, Colorado State and Boise. All legit bball powers. Unlike in CUSA and the AAC where the leagues took steps back after we joined the PAC is not going to fall off. They’ve got established powers in there. I watched the Oregon State St. Mary’s game last night and it would be great to call those programs bball conference peers. We’re probably locked out of the Big 12 with TCU in town. This is a chance to elevate and take our product out west to the Bay Area, Southern California, the Rockies and the Great Northwest. It’s time to show our interest. Don’t let them lowball us and definitely present our strengths and make a play to go bigger. GMG

I actually get jazzed when offensively explosive teams come into Denton or on the road look up almost 10 minutes in and are striving for 10 points or if they have calculated us right are driving for 20. It’s takes almost a half for their smelling salt to kick in when they are not sure what to expect. That is why teams that come out and punch us in the face first or soon often fare better. In Wichita the pregame hosts on the local radio were predicting a tough battle with UNT winning like 85-81. I laughed a bit because it is hard to imagine point totals that high watching our identity of a program. We’re not Utah State Boise State which haul up and down the court. I love our grit! GMG

You know it’s okay Mean Green fans to start expecting Championships and Championship runs. From our basketball programs to our soccer and softball prowess we can expect. It’s totally legit to expect. i saw Morris at the softball game on Tuesday supporting the Ladies which was great. It also okay and necessary to hold Eric to the same metrics. Time to deliver. Fall 2025 it’s on. GMG

I agree about our games. They are usually nail biters and I feel confident in many of them. That Tulsa game was strange because we really dominated and that was such a change it felt like. GMG

That Charlotte game will be fun and Wichita State will be a war, but first the boys from Boca. This is getting more fun by the week! Congratulations Mean Green and thank you for starting off my Sunday Funday with a smile. GMG

Wings brews and ball. Oh yeah! 🏀 GMG

Stone is also a huge emotional impact on this team. Dude is totally engaged and that kind of morale, spirit building has a place. I don’t care whether you’re on the court or the bench, emotion has influence. All great teams need some energy peeps. GMG

I was am impressed with the effort on all fronts of entertainment for this game: 1. Mavs maniacs. 2. Mavs dancers. 3. Mavs Mascot. 4. Mavs Man and Crew. 5. UNT and Mavs dancers performance. 6. Mavs drum corp. Weather inhibited. Mavs a toxic brand today. But overall I loved the energy put in to make this community connection a reality. Imagine if this effort was on a weekend. The turnout would have been crazy. Still a valiant effort thank you Jared. It was fun. GMG

The Roundhouse is not an easy place to get a W. Proud of our guys a couple of weeks back getting that clutch win in Wichita. They also love to play close games and they’ve won 2 recently against the Runners and Tigers. They’re figuring some things out at the right time. GMG
