UH Has Band Day!--Ohio U, Too! Why Not North Texas?
Andrew Balettie replied to PlummMeanGreen's topic in Mean Green Football
As a Green Brigade alumnus and current high school band director, I have to say that it's not as easy as it sounds...especially with budgets being next to nothing. Also, the competitive landscape in October for high school marching bands literately lends to no free Saturdays for the last two weeks of September through all of October. In addition, when you take 200 students to an event, you have to collect 200 permission slips, get 200 meals, pass out 200 uniforms, etc. I would love for my band to come out, but it is completely and totally more work than it is worth and has little to no educational value. What will my students get out of going to a UNT game? Playing a couple of corny tunes at half time that no one, including the Green Brigade students, wants to play? Food for thought... -

Florida International (2/9/13)

Coleman is absolutely worthless. Every time he had the ball last game was a massive waste of a possession -
anyone know if the A-State website's player is supposed to have video?

Suggestion for Basketball games
Andrew Balettie replied to MeanGreenHoops's topic in Mean Green Basketball
So much this. Nothing is worse than going to a UNT sporting event and seeing people in UT/OU/ATM apparel. Get with it. You are at UNT. -
Really impressed with Niko tonight. I thought he played a great game.
-
Man it sucks to be....from Middle Tennessee.
-
Anyone else feel like Benford's lack of ability to rapidly substitute has something to do with tonight's win?
-
Anyone know of a way to watch this?
-
Fantastic. Thank you.
-
Is this game being televised in any way, shape, or form?

UNT to be another player short tonight
Andrew Balettie replied to Brett Vito's topic in Mean Green Basketball
Why does it have to be the coaches or players fault? Can't the blame be distributed between both? If you think that every player on this team is giving maximum effort or they have loads of heart, you're delusional. If you think Tony Benford does not have some SERIOUS downfalls as a head basketball coach, you too fall into this category. The fact of the matter is that the combination of the two major components of this machine may very well work with other people, but they don't work well together. Edited for grammar. -
Overlander down with Knee injury

On the bright side, Benford can only sub so many times with limited numbers on the bench... -
The problem isn't heart or Benford
Andrew Balettie replied to eppy4life's topic in Mean Green Basketball
This is exactly the reason it is Benford's fault...you're telling me that we are money in the paint yet we took more than twice as many mid to long range jumpers than high percentage shots. That's poor scheme. -
I'm just pissed that we have all these physical big men and yet we still pass around the arch for the majority of our positions. The team seems unprepared to drive the hole. 1 of 3 things happens when you drive the lane: you make a high % shot, you get fouled, or you miss. 2/3 of those are great options and with the big men we have, we should do that every time. Also, if you do it enough, it will open up the jumper for people like Alzee and Chris. The players have been doing awfully, but Benford has done nothing that I can see to try and adjust and compensate for that. Though, I did thoroughly enjoy winning the chicken toss...after failing hard twice.
