  1. You only support this system because it benefits your school and your donor rich system. Not everyone is a rich private school. The system should allow everyone a shot to be successful. The athletic situation we find ourselves in now is not much more than a glorified community college.
  2. "After much prayer" my arse! Just be honest and say, I am greedy and wanted more money than UNT was able to pay me. Sick of the lies by these players and supposed "tough decisions". You turned your back on the program that gave you a chance. My position is don't let the door hit you on the way out. Good riddance.
  3. DENTON, Texas – UNT Athletics will hold an introductory press conference for new men’s basketball head coach Daniyal Robinson Friday, April 4 at 11 am in the HUB Club at DATCU Stadium. The event is open to the public and will be the first time for Mean Green fans to hear from Coach Robinson. Doors open for the event at 10:30 am. Robinson will be on hand along with President Harrison Keller and VP/Director of Athletics Jared Mosley. Robinson and Mosley will be available for questions from the media.

  4. Good post! Thank you Ross for all you did for us. We are grateful.

  6. Ross leaving us high and dry hurt the psyche of this team. Such a wasted opportunity. We had more talent, we were the better team!
  7. Not one mention of the big national NIT final four game on ESPN. Click on Athletics link and this was the main article: I feel like this administration takes athletics for granted and does absolutely nothing to promote or support it in the manner it deserves. We should be reminding every single student, faculty and admin member of the importance of this game and cherish it. Instead we pretend like it isn't even happening. Just makes me sick.
  8. I like Johnny but he may be too old.
  9. Agreed. Just wish the administration shared in our optimism. If they did they would pony up more for salaries and NIL. We shall see with this next hire how much dedication we truly have. Football is a black hole, basketball is what truly has a chance to get us to the promised land.
  10. LuncheonGate hurt Ross because he cares about UNT.
  11. Why in the F is Ross being allowed to coach in this final 4 game? He took another job, left us high and dry in the most important recruiting period of the season. Why does he get to showcase for Wren on national television? At least Grant had the decency to hold off announcing until after the NIT was over. I am so sick of this good ole boi UNT crap. As a business owner if you take another job I am telling you to put your shit in a box and GTFO. Only at UNT does this type of shit happen.
  12. I have learned the details behind Luncheon-Gate and am deeply saddened at the state of our alma mater. Mosley's original sin was he should have contacted the President and the BOR the second after SMUt lost their game to OSU. They could have changed the deal had he done that. Secondly, Dr. Keller did his best impression of Simon Peter when he denied Jesus after he had been arrested. Keller had a chance to be a UNT hero but instead he took the easy way out and turned his back on us. This would have been the highest attended game in the possibly the history of UNT. Students were back, the weather was nice, OSU is in a power conference close by that would travel in large numbers. This has to be one of the worst possible decisions in the history of UNT lore, right up there with painting the SuperPit seats orange and leaving the Missouri Valley conference.
  13. DENTON – Jasper Floyd made a turnaround jumper with one second remaining to lift the UNT men’s basketball team to a 65-63 home win over Arkansas State Sunday night in the second round of the National Invitation Tournament. With the win, the Mean Green advance to the NIT quarterfinals where they will face Oklahoma State in Stillwater, Oklahoma, on Tuesday at 8 p.m. CT. The win is also North Texas’ 26th of the year, which is the second most in program history. It was their 17th home win of the year. The previous single season school record was 15. “That’s a really good basketball team and heis a tremendous coach,” said UNT head coach Ross Hodge. “They had our full respect, and our guys played really hard. We were able to make one more play there at the end. That’s usually what it comes down to this time of year.” Arkansas State (25-11) tied for first place in the Sun Belt standings this year and reached the championship round of the SBC Tournament. They defeated American Athletic Conference opponents Memphis and UAB on the road during the non-conference. Floyd’s game winner gave him a game-high 18 points, tied with teammate Latrell Jossell who also finished with 18 points in the two-point win. Floyd has scored now 37 points over the Mean Green’s two games in this year’s NIT. Tuesday’s matchup at Oklahoma State is a rematch from the Mean Green’s 2023 NIT championship run where they beat the Cowboys in Stillwater in the quarterfinals of the NIT, 65-59. Tuesday’s game will be broadcast on the Mean Green Sports Network, presented by Learfield and on ESPN2.

  18. Good interview. Thanks for putting it together @Cooley
  19. Had a chance to break the record and you blew it against a mediocre Temple squad. This is why we can’t have nice things!
