If Rick Villarreal is allowed to hire a new men's basketball coach, even more supporters will abandoned this colossal mess that some call UNT athletics. Probably never to be heard from again.  Bu

Hanging on by a thread. Yet I'm sure your crowd can't wait for the day that I, like so many before me, simply throw in the towel on a sunk cost and walk away. That way the same 100 people can all get

A winnable game.  I have an event tonight, so it is unlikely I'll listen.  Someone post the tower or the dumpster fire depending on the result.  ?

You going to the UNT Alumni/Advancement event and then the game itself tonight in Houston?

In Los Angeles?  No.  

OK, well, that would be a big commute, but thought I would ask.  Have fun at your event there in Tinsel Town.  Be safe, and hopefully, you will not have to start another dumpster fire after this one...one can hope, right?

Combs continue to be a beast. He picked up his 7th straight double-double before the first half was even over.

Bench is 0 for everything  except for 4 fouls and 3 turnovers.   We need Brice to be healthy.

Still out due to a concussion.

0 rebounds, assists, or points for the bench thus far.  I think I know how this story will end after yet another competitive first half.

They do have four fouls and a couple turnovers though!

I thought we were suppose to have a deep team and the most talented set of guards in 4 years. Not seeming to be the case.

"Yeah, you know, it just hasn't been our season."

"They didn't call that. We haven't been getting calls all year. They should've called that."

- on a foul that should've been called against Combs

The end is nearing.

Should be by the next game I would think.  We are now the bottom of the barrel pretty much and don't have a lot of room to move. Get Shelton in there and see if he can make adjustments and get the offense rolling.

Changing coaches will solve nothing, IMO. You're living a dream if you think otherwise.

We cannot get any worse and having Evans take over would do nothing. I rather see what Shelton can do. He is the only person on that bench who might actually have potential.

How do you think a coaching change will get more bench production? It's too late to install some sort of offensive system.

Changing coaches asap is not about saving this season. It is about getting a new guy in asap so he has a staff ready to go in terms of recruiting and is not behind the 8-ball in recruiting for next season and has time to try to convince some of the better current players to stay.

It cannot hurt. Putting in Chico didn't hurt. Was he successful? No, but it was a change and sent a message. Now would be a good time for that message. 5 game skid and losing to the worst team in our conference is not inspiring. I still won't miss a game regardless, but I do think a choaching change couldn't make us any worse.

      Odus Mitchell - What Exactly are Too High Standards at UNT?

      We have only had 4 coaches [I missed Jack Sisco] since 1913 out of a total of 18 who exited North Texas with winning records, Hayden Fry being the last in 1978. Goals and objectives must be realistic and obtainable with a little pie in the sky. Quite honestly I have no idea what we our standard should be, only what it has become . However, expect more are you will get less ,which seems to be the norm for our football program.

      Caponi fired

      I’ll say this as well - There are people in my group of 20+ season ticket holders that have held them since 2003 questioning if they’ll renew next year because it’s not fun anymore. It feels hopeless after 20+ years. They’re just saying, I’ll keep supporting basketball because at least we have a real program and coaching staff that we can all believe in through wins and losses. No one believes in the football coaching staff - except Patrick Cobbs - who we might as well elevate to HC. He’s the only one that actually produces and legitimately gives a shit about UNT. This program’s situation is dire whether the AD realizes it or not.

      Caponi fired

      I certainly am not making excuses for the termination of Caponi and agree that it was overdue. However I am surprised that our AD and not HC was the one who reportedly pulled the trigger. I owned a medical device sales agency for 30 years and can testify that no one like firing an employee. In fact those who do , unless its a really egregious act, usually wait longer than the should because the real mistake was made by you in hiring them in the first place. Having said that I have never terminated an employ that didn't expect it and in most cases were relieved that the ax finally dropped.

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      It is obvious that no one is stopping you from voicing your displeasure with the program. I also wonder where you get anyone is happy with the season. As for as the resources, there is no way that you know that to be true, unless you know their NIL numbers and their real budget. Hint, what is reported can be made to look about anyway you want by manipulating the numbers. I am truly regretful that NT is likely not going to be invited to the Rose Bowl and will be relegated to a subpar bowl and opponent.
