i would of been there if not for mid-terms, I'm sure I wasn't the only student with this problem

i'm still waiting for my pm.. oh but i bet you won't be on here for awhile since the basketball team actually did something good.. theres not much you can say since noone is talking about firing JJ

hmm I would estimate about 200-400 people showed up (maybe more, i'm not good at guessing sizes of crowds).. first the band, dance team, and cheerleaders showed up on their bus and unpacked their instruments and cheerleaders started cheering.. about 15 minutes later the bus with the players show up via police escort.. the players get off the bus to the fight song following a huge ovation from the crowd.. the whole team takes the stage, singing the chorus of the p-diddy song "we aint goin no where" but instead of "cuz its bad boy for life" they say "cuz its mean green for life".. Dr. Bataille gives speach talking about how proud she is about the team and thanks the crowd for the support.. Rick Villareal gives thanks to the band, cheerleaders, the team and the crowd, and gets teary eyed when he introduces "his head basketball coach, and closefriend, Johnny Jones".. Johnny Jones gives a great speach about never giving up, playing thru adversity, he then talked about bouncing back after tough losses, and thanked his wife "so he would be able to go home tonight".. Then Calvin Watson got a chance to speak first he thanked god, then he thanked the fans and all the supporters who were with them from the beginning and the ones who showed up today.. Then ben bell got to speak, his speach was short, and he pretty much thanked everyone for the support and talked about winning it again next year.. Then Rick Villareal thanked everyone again for showing up and that was it.. The players went out to the crowd and mingled with the crowd and the t.v. crews that showed up.. There were alot of t.v. cameras, and sports writers there, some that I saw included channels 4,5, and 11.. I got interviewed by a guy from the DMN, but I also saw the FWSTG, DRC, and of course the NT daily there, and a lady from news radio.. I think I covered it all

just got back from the event, there was a pretty good turnout

I just got done eating in the union and they had flyers on every table and on the doors/walls of in the place so I can see they are trying

i'll take stone cold steve austin over those guys anyday

they had a career festival today, but I don't think that was part of the celebration

go back and tell me one thing positive you've said about this team and send me a pm.. I'm surprised you started posting again, you normally only comment after a loss

its ok he doesn't have the ability to admit he was wrong, thats something that comes with maturity.. maybe someday

at least you manned up and are willing to eat your crow, now as fans of UNT basketball lets start the anticipation for selection sunday

where can I buy my 2007 sbc champion shirt?!?!?!?!?

GO MEAN GREEN!!! fire johnny jones!!!! he will blow it in the end

we are so close.. come on mean green!

these are about as accurate as the nfl mock drafts, and we all know how those go

it still shows us being on espn2 on the little bar that scrolls on the bottom of the screen on espn

I meant that toungue in cheek

make a poster that says "fire Johnny Jones"

same here, and the worst part is, if you go to the dude's american idol profile, he doesn't even mention UNT.. ya we should be real proud of that guy... come on UNT get this right

Go mean green!! FIRE JOHHNY JONES!!

wow these rims are unforgiving..

sturns needs to quit putting up a shot everytime he gets the ball!! :angry:

57-55 MUTS w/ 29 seconds left, MUT ball

55-54 MUTS 2 minutes left in OT

ya but what is there for people to do in brownwood?? maybe we should move UNT to bfe

finally just talked myself into buying the live streaming video of the sunbelt tournament.. I think I may be as nervous about this game as some of the players
