If we had best Sam Houston State we could have ended OOC 8-4 which would most likely have put us in the top 4 of our conference heading into conference play.

Home schedule was really bad this year because Benford was trying to save his job. Remember, in basketball, the head coach makes the schedule.  Even playing every weak sister of the poor he could

lol somebody clearly doesn't go to games or know anything about how Benford operates. These talking heads got me like ?

He does none of this and hasn't for a long time! They lose because they have no flow on offense because I believe there is to much micromanagement on that end of the court. Defensively we are decent but we will still run the same old zone that doesn't step out and give up way to many threes. That is how we lose, but I wouldn't bet on us losing here next two games. 7-5 heading into conference and then maybe 9-9 there. Benford barley gets his first winning season and then most likely he is gone. 

Well, in the 4 games I've been to this year and the 8 or so I went to last year...and every season he's been here,  he's subbed like crazy.  It's embarrassing to watch because he looks so lost as a coach.  I was pulling for him and very much wanted him to succeed...I still do...I hope he wins a ton of games for us...it's just hard to believe that anymore with our street ball approach.

Let the party begin. Our best players on our best team in five years are playing.  We are up on a mid level Southland Conference team by two at half.  Why am I not confident about our chances in Conferance USA.  Coach B should have been fired four years ago.  It's time to start over again.

Dude in the stands screaming Mean Green-themed variations of Christmas carols is cracking me up with his enthusiasm!

I can tell he is doing that, but can't make out the words on the other side of arena. A+ for effort on his part.

Woolridge is all over the floor. Having a huge impact. Will be nice to have 3 more years of that...

encouraged thus far --- but gotta be careful as they have some deadly 3-point shooters and as @CMJ indicates there is still a lot of time.

Heck, I'm about 5 or 6 rows in front of him and I can only make out every 3rd or 4th word. But I got the Fa la la la la's!!

Woolridge makes such a big impact with his ability to handle the ball and distribute.  Very big pickup for the program.

Agreed. He is also doing a great job of sticking his nose in there on loose balls and offensive rebound opportunities to keep possessions alive.

      What is this program missing?

      What's so frustrating is that we were there, on the cusp. We were THAT team. WE HAD THE MOMENTUM (starting in 2017) until Littrell's flirtations with KSSt. The wheels fell off after that.... starting with Fine's injury in the NM Bowl game that year, then Harrell getting hired away & replaced by Bodie Reeder. The next season, the lackadaisical SL showed up and he wasn't having fun anymore. No more high energy, "Get after their asses!!". Instead, it was low energy, "we gotta do better in all 3 phases".... Then, we fired Littrell, and rightly so, but brought in Great Value Seth Littrell to replace him, which was a bone-headed move.

      Kevin Henry-Jennings: South Oak Cliff QB

      He was only recruited as a reserve; mainly to get in on the SOC/Dallas pipeline. (15 minutes away). Their guy was 4-Star QB Preston Stone of Parish Episcopal. Stone was injured and hasn't performed up to expectations. Jennings exceeded expectations. Not great but effective.

      New Commit....Cahmai Crosby, combo guard......Kilgore JC

      Well, not a lot to go on other than the attached video on Crosby. Haven't found an entire game yet. This staff has done a great job with juco pickups over the years, so I can't question this one. Curious why the lack of quality offers though. The Thomas signing is ok considering he just started his senior season in high school. He looks a legit 6-7 with a very good body build. He could develop his game more but he is not the "great" recruit as advertised. I have subscribed to NFHS for a number of years now and recently saw his playoff game against Plano East last year. He's an above average HS center (presently) on a loaded Allen team. I'm sure we signed him to play the 4 as he does not have a perimeter game. Wish we had signed DJ Hall of Plano East who is better. Kid signed with Texas State as their highest recruit ever. Never saw any UNT offers.

      Defensive recruiting/coaches have taken a backseat to offensive recruiting/coaches. I truly hope Morris quickly figures out that defense is necessary for winning. We just can’t rely on out scoring teams. I also hope Morris starts protecting the defense with his offensive play calls. When the defense just got off the field after a long drive by the other team, don’t be so aggressive with long passes that have us turning the ball over in less than a minute. Try to burn some clock and sustain a drive allowing the defense to rest and get adjustments from coaches.

      2025 DC Wish List

      There is a certain coach in the Piney Woods that fits that criteria and has wanted to be at UNT for years.
