NIT Semifinals Watching Parties
meanJewGreen replied to UNT 90 Grad's topic in Mean Green Basketball
-
As one poster put in an earlier thread, COVID had a lot to do with hurting mid major momentum IMHO. I know its 3 years in the future, but I feel like we missed that momentum lift in 2020 and 2021

One main reason Mac may take the Tech job
meanJewGreen replied to meangreenfaninno's topic in Mean Green Basketball
This is a great point. I remember seeing that small celebration in Indianapolis and wondering what if… it killed fan momentum for mid majors more than anything -
Funny enough, their football program is the same. The current football coach is 52-13 and that's considered underperforming

I remember Wren tweeting about this guy awhile back.... he's visiting University of Buffalo today- anyone interested in him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_McCollum

One main reason Mac may take the Tech job
meanJewGreen replied to meangreenfaninno's topic in Mean Green Basketball
In coaching you're either elevated or terminated. It's a good sign for your program when a coach is elevated. We've had too many terminations here in all sports. Grant will win at Tech, but he'll also get to be in the same conference with 2 of his coaching buddies in Jerome Tang and Scott Drew. -
Breaking News: Jalie Mitchell out as North Texas Coach
meanJewGreen replied to TheReal_jayD's topic in Mean Green Basketball
It's going to be real curious who this hire ends up being. There's a lot of potential with women's basketball. All of our sports have been elevated, and Jalie did it to some extent. We've seen with other programs around the country and in the WNBA that enthusiasm is building in women's sports I could see the right hire elevating the program similar how DeLong has elevated softball -
That was such a weird game.
-
The guy could recruit but it nevr translated on the court. This is a program with some high expectations.
-
Not only that, but HBCU's play an absolute murderous non-con to help fund their programs- see this year's below What I heard too was that he's got 40-50 family and friends between Houston and Louisiana, so its a good setup for him. Always liked him here, but could never perform when there were expectations

Sorry but I feel like they screwed us
meanJewGreen replied to Jonnyeagle's topic in Mean Green Basketball
Meh. Not about consecutive 20 win seasons. Gotta win at the right time. We always seem to have bad losses late in the year, and can't get a huge signature noncon win. I think if we made it to the final either last year or this year we woulda had a better shot. -
I call it getting paidddd and moving up. If someone offered you a 400k raise, and a $$ conference and a chance to burnish your resume you take it. If people are stepping UP from UNT vs getting fired..... we're in good shape

Why would she have taken her best player out on purpose?
-
This is a tough one for me. She is a great ambassador for the program, great person overall, and fantastic alum. She's got 4 years over .500 but barely. Had two good years beforehand. We gave Slinker 20 years despite 5 good years out of 21. Does she deserve another year or two? More and more universities are throwing good dollars behind their women's basketball programs and seeing amazing results. Is it time for us to change course? I say no despite what she represents to the university.

I remember doing midnight maneuvers when I was at UNT but it more involved walking from Lucky Lou's, to Fry Street Tavern and finishing up at R Bar for a Friday night

Their pitcher was dealing too. Umps gave them a lot of generous balls as well. Well attended by the Green. We had a nice little section with some others scattered about

Me thinks there's gonna be a good bit of green in the stands tomorrow in Austin....

American (AAC) Football Schedule Released Tomorrow (2/21)
meanJewGreen replied to SUMG's topic in Mean Green Football
This is probably the best schedule in 35 years. Home P5 Other than Ruston, all fun road trips (and direct flights) FCS that travels well (I think) Well-known schools Only blemish is the Saturday Tgiving game, SMU game sucks that its on Fri, but probably will be ESPN game -
It’s not that the school isn’t behind them. Athletic center expansion is first priority, and for good reason- we’ve outgrown our current one. they’re not just adding sports to add them. They’re ensuring the infrastructure is there to support other sports
