GMG24

We go in there regularly, especially after the destruction of Rockin Rodeo. Wife and I went on our first date when it used to be Pourhouse, so it holds some sentimental value as well.

Lesson learned, we eat and drink before hand. Grab popcorn and maybe a water bottle there. 🙂

You’ll make it with time to spare. I’d eat before hand. My experiences haven’t been too hot with the booths that have been open for games. Luke warm hot dogs cold hamburger and sub par pretzel. They’ve only had 2/3 concession booths opened most of the year so I’m assuming predicted numbers drives that for AD

I just made the drive solo to check the roads out, guys I drove from Lewisville to Denton and there isn’t a bad spot 1 not bridges not side roads not highways. There is hardly even water on the ground. Please get out and be safe but no reason to not drive to the game tonight. I’m bringing my family of 4. GMG

You are not lying, but the problem I have is the type of kids we're getting out of the portal. Going down to FCS Level kids when there are plenty of P5 talent in the portal, AND P5 level kids that would typically chose them over UNT are now available bc P5 are full. Tons of talent available for the taking and we are just sitting on our backsides.

I will try to do this without sounding like a whiny baby. It seems like there is a serious lack of THINKING that goes into the fans game day experience. Little to no effort to get the crowd going with some energy and while I agree that the fans should bring that on their own sometimes they need a little help. Things I noticed during the game yesterday that had me seriously scratching my head. 1. They're in a timeout and the video board has the clip where a player gets hype and starts chanting DEFENSE! DURING A TIMEOUT. Then they break the huddle and nothing. 2. Music selection has not changed in years, songs do nothing to move the needle. 3. The environment of the Pit in general is BLAH 4. Majority of the fans there seem to be there to watch a basketball game not cheer or celebrate, just simply watch them run up and down the court and play the game. 5. I wish they'd turn those goofy yellowish lights off and just have the newer lights on. 6. Middle Tennessee section that came to the game was loudest section in the "North" "Texas" chant.

Students don’t start class until the following week

Agreed. We rebounded and played poor interior post defense first half, did much better at both in the 2nd half, then didn't hit many FT's in big situations.

Back to Back Conference Champions, Won Conference Tournament last year, Won NCAA Tournament Game. Yah we do plenty of winning big games. Take that garbage somewhere else.

Similar to Okie State? That would be awesome!

1 and 2 are the same person minus the title given.

Completely disagree. Baseball (if done right, could possibly be the best program on campus) DBU TCU are offering kids 20-30% scholarships meaning they come up with the other 70-80% and pay their way through school. Imagine coming to UNT where we can offer you 35-40% and you pay the difference. The amount of $ kids families could save would be worth the look. You will have to win but with all the baseball talent in the metroplex every year you should be able to build a program with great success and possibly very early success. Ton of baseball coaches ask all the time why we don't. Lot of them think it would be a dream job because of location/conference/ability to steal recruits from top programs because of cost to attend UNT vs the other schools.

Yes, he actually does all 3. Will he do that here? Who knows but it helps bringing in guys like that, that have the ability to handle all of them for you.

Or give the kids a little respect that bust their tail to make sure they represent our University. Those names plates aren't that expensive and give the kids family and kid a sense of pride.

I would agree we have more depth now than we've ever had and he built that depth by year 4. Agreed it takes longer, but if they would have hit the transfer portal earlier they could have built that depth authentically (See team from Dallas) then you win and begin recruiting better HS talent and use the portal less.

I'll be there plus 2. Lets keep this going! 19,996

1. Our defense when locked in and focused is SUFFOCATING. Would like to see them find a way to maintain the 2nd half energy defensively for a full game. When they turn it on that defense is really fun to watch. 2. Our ball movement negates the size advantage teams have over some of the smaller guards and allows much cleaner looks, would like to see less 1v1 and more continued use of ball movement. We seem to be doing a much better job of it the past few games, but still have spurts where it hurts us. I like getting Bell in the post but don't like when it sticks down there. 3. This team is really fun to watch compete and battle. 4. Would really like to see Wright rotate in even if it is in 2 minute spurts, after watching La Tech last night, and knowing what WKU has in terms of bigs. It makes me very worried that we only have 1 true Big ready to play. Yes, I get it, if we went Bell/Scott combo now that big guy has to guard on the perimeter but I worry about them picking up fouls guarding those bigs in the post. 5. I would like to see Scott attack and shoot more pull ups and Dunk/Layups. He seems uncomfortable at the 3 point line last few shots, but I know he has a good shot he showed that vs KU. 6. GO MEAN GREEN!

If we somehow landed this kid it would be one of the biggest pick ups in MG history. This kid is the real deal. Coached against him and even when everything fit out perfect, there he was making a play. Very impressive player. I think some of the Blue Blood programs have been in and seen him. It is only a matter of time.

I love me some Aaron Scott!!! We look more fluid today. Guys are learning each other quickly and this tournament will help force some continuity between a lot of guys quick. Love that all this is happening and no Perry. This team is going to be a problem for a lot of people. Last thing I want to see in this tournament is Ousmane return to dominating the paint, he looks out of sorts to me, obviously foul trouble doesn’t help.

Small school in Georgia somewhere. COVID got him one more shot. Think this is his last year.

Yes sir, they are getting screwed worse than 2021. Schools/Rosters are maxed out. I am hearing some Universities will be asking kids to move on and seek other options to possibly clear up space. It is going to get messy.

Ive heard a rumor the number could be in the single digits...

NCAA will not be adding scholarships. The burden on schools lower than Most D1 Schools financially would crumble most universities. I imagine you will see schools using the non-renewal of scholarships as each scholarship is a 1 year scholarship now. It will be a slippery slope as you don't renew a kids scholarship and their HS/JUCO coach find out unless there is a reason the student athlete brought upon themselves then you will be having some ticked off coaches.
