Always have thought the 1994 look was underappreciated. Also, one for one on conference championships in that helmet. Also like the 2020 white helmet with the green flying worms. Good find.

I would be VERY happy to see our defense play this well.

Very few teams actually read the triple option anymore and most of the concepts can be run from the spread. The midline from the spread is still a lethal play. If you are willing to play a two back spread, you can still do most of what you want. It was a good fit for the service academies for the type of athletes they have to play. Spreading the field and matching athletes with others will not work out well for them.

Maybe after he coaches somewhere else for several years. Without any experience..... no.

I just know it will always be hard to get interest when home opponents are Omaha, Paul Quinn College, LSU Shreveport, Oklahoma Christian, LSU Alexandria, Southern Nazarene, Miss Valley State, Texas A&M Commerce, and Arkansas Pine Bluff. CUSA, which we all know it is good, doesn't create a lot of fan interest through the season either. Just too many teams most people have never heard of.

Rally House Denton said yesterday that they were expecting a shipment on Monday

She also, like Seth, took over a program in terrible shape. Like Seth, she turned the program around. I see 4 winning seasons in 5 years. She has competed well in conference this year beating every team ahead of us except Middle Tennessee. Yes, they have also lost a few they probably shouldn't have. Why does everyone on here start wanting to fire the coach ASAP? Let's try to have some continuity and build something. How about we support the program at level that would make players want to come here. She wins with VERY little support. We didn't even have a college level weight room until this year. Some on here are simply exhausting. Show up. Pay up. Shut up.... support the teams and stop complaining about everything.

This program only has 5 post season appearances in it's entire history. She has coached NT to 2 of those 5, making the finals of the WCBI. We made the WNIT for only the third time ever. So I would ask the same question in reverse. Who could have possibly done better? This roster has more new players than returners. They have played hard and improved along the way. I'm willing to give it every chance. She has proven she can win here when very few ever have.

Got rewarded for having some grit tonight. Played hard Thursday and couldn't get a shot to go in. Played hard tonight and found a way to win.

I've seen them at the basketball games. Talked to some of them walking back to the dorm right before the bowl game. But yes, it should be more noticeable.

But was it exciting and did it get the team fired up? From what I've read here, that is crucial for the HC at a press conference.

It all comes down to $$$ and name recognition in the end. We come up short on both. We have to win the tournament. Our ranking will be irrelevant.

The WBB team has won 6 of their last 8. They are getting hot at the right time.

The grass isn't always greener... We all learn this lesson at some point. Also, some jobs aren't worth the money... especially if you aren't valued.

Sadly, the Talons were once a really big deal. There was a women's group called the Green Jackets that were once big too. I like this group of Maniacs better than anything I've seen from the Talons in a long time. Just wish there were more.

Big win in El Paso. Any win there is tough. They got a big lead going into the 4th and held on. Don't look now, but they seem to be getting it together. Winners in 4 if the last 6 (and let one of those two get away). They could be a tough draw in the tournament.

The idea behind lower seating capacity is selling season tickets. Basketball has much the same problem as football with walk-up sales. Season tickets are sold even when it rains. Also, currently there isn't a suitable weight room in the pit. The training room is really small. There are only 2 goals (I rarely see a good free throw shooting team when the practice gym only has two goals). And we cannot even put paint on the walls without approval from the academic side of the university. While is it better than some gyms we play in, it is all the little things that we are missing. You should have seen the dressing rooms and weight room at Fouts. This is a similar situation.

The women are killing it lately. Coach M has changed up the starters. Q and Lampkin now come off the bench and the second quarter isn't a disaster anymore. The defense is playing great. Held FIU to 3 points in the 2nd quarter. Forced 30 turnovers today. Now we need to beat Rice on the road and get on a roll.

Can someone list who his other offers were.

You can usually do either or both. We have purchased day by day in the past and one year bought a tournament pass. I kinda depends for us on how long we expect to last.

Can't read the article because the Denton paper won't offer a sports section only option, but if Brett says Kendall is just getting better and better, he is correct. Our guards played great and Quincy was outstanding on the defensive end. Great job by the coaches in making halftime adjustments.

The NT WBB beat the stuffing out of the Owls today. At the half, it looked like what we have seen a lot of this year. Turnovers and missed shots were killing us. The second half was a different story. NT held FAU to 8 points in the third quarter while scoring 21 and repeated it in the 4th to win by 16. McGruder was on fire and our guards were the best they've been all year. Coach Mitchell changed up the starting 5 and some of her substitutions. Shout out to Quincy coming off the bench and playing great defense. You can see signs of thus team figuring it out. Consistency is the biggest issue right now.

You know what we should do? We should have a meeting and give Coach M our thoughts on how to run his team and how to win a conference championship. While we are at it, maybe we could all throw in our thoughts on who he should target in recruiting. That would be terrific.

How quickly we forget. She took the program when it was terrible. She built it steadily until we had only our 4th and 5th postseason appearances. She made it to the finals of the WCBI and hosted a WNIT. However, we were a Sr heavy team last year. This team is young and experienced some growing pains. I would say give her another year. Some of you seem to have no idea how hard it is to overcome the perception that NT is the place you go when nobody else offers. We have been that in Women's basketball for most of the time we have had the sport. She has changed that. I am willing to give this another year.

Found a way to overcome a bad 2nd quarter. Got out rebounded badly in the first half but fixed it in the second half. They are really beat up and still found a way to win. WKU isn't anything special, but you still need to beat those people.
