We all knew if half these fall JUCOs qualified, UNT would be very fortunate. 

Well, the realistic ones among us knew, anyway...

Great post!!!

This hurts more for next year than this year, IMO. Next year when was all these JUCOs would have a year under their belt, and spring practice, as well as familiarity with the scheme. Good news is at least this gives us an extra spot for the 2017 class. Not sure if Johnson and Hayes opened up a spot in either class by not showing up.

Serious bummer. We need to buy a JC and institute a favorable curriculum. 

If that curriculum gets any more favorable, particularly for these JC athletes, they'll having coloring books for textbooks.

The truth is that NT would not have been close to signing either Johnson or Hoston if there had been no academic issues.  They were not worth the risk for the major programs, but frankly NT had nothing to lose by signing them.  

That being said, recruiting has got to get a lot better.

Well, if he can't succumb to those strenuous junior college academic standards then quite frankly...adios! 

You are such a tool. I am sorry, but come on man.

      Memphis (1/5/25)

      This is what I call a “growth game.” This is the kind of game Hodge can use the film from to show the team the razor thin margin between winning and losing against the best teams in our league. If we are who we hope we are, our team walks away from this knowing we CAN beat anyone come conference tourney time, we just have to execute.

      plus let's not forget a Haggerty prayer from 30' going in. we're likely not into the foul game in the last minute or so without that bucket

      Great game, Memphis is a good team and this one came down to the end. However I am still baffled by UNT's inability to inbound the ball, this is a trend that has been going on for a few seasons now. There were several times today that they would inbound the ball directly into a corner trap, many of those instances resulted into a turn over.

      Mean Green Fall At No. 21 Memphis, 68-64

      The Mean Green (10-4, 1-1) got a career performance from senior big man Moulaye Sissoko who poured in a career-high 17 points on eight shots and grabbed a game-high eight rebounds in the four-point defeat. North Texas’ Brenen Lorient scored a team-high 18 points and was one of four different Mean Green players to score in double figures. Senior Jasper Floyd had 11 points to go along with a season-high six assists. UNT outrebounded the nationally ranked Tigers (12-3, 2-0) 30-21and forced them into 15 turnovers and just seven assists. “If you have told me we would force them into 15 turnovers and just seven assists and outrebound them by nine I would have really liked our chances,” said head coach Ross Hodge. “But it was that stretch in the second half where we didn’t handle their press well and we ended with 16 turnovers. We’ll regroup together and get better from this together.” The Mean Green have a quick turnaround as they host Rice on Wednesday at Super Pit at 8 p.m. CT. UNT is 8-0 at home this season. The game will be broadcast on the Mean Green Sports Network, presented by Learfield and ESPNU.
