Another game coached by Benford, who should have been gone 4 years ago. Still don't care at UNT.

Another loss.

UNT is a 3 point home dog. Might as well be 30.

at this point i don't want a tournament , unless it is against the denton high school, scratch that denton middle school basketball team.  We might be able to make it to the finals with Benford coaching and Wren watching.

Periodically, my phone puts a little basketball icon on the top.  I open it up and see that UNT is playing basketball.  That's pretty much the extent of my awareness anymore.

(+)Charlotte isn't a really good team. We are playing at home.

(-) Benford is coaching. Combs is done for the year.

No worries guys, I'm sure WB will be sitting there, doing nothing about the shit show.

As for the game, it's a bit of a toss up.

(-) Charlotte has the 2nd best offense in CUSA, UNT has the 4th worst defense in CUSA

(push) Charolette has the worst defense in CUSA, but UNT has the second worst offense.

(-) Charolette already beat the Benfords by 20 and scored 101 in the process.

19-16 Charlotte; 11:59.

Reese finally pulled off the floor after putting in very little effort on the defensive end and half effort when we had the ball. I feel bad for him having a senior season like this.

eta: Charlotte has gone ice cold

What isn't Brice playing?

Don't know. Was sitting next to Evans before taking Deckie's spot on the bike.

Charlotte still in its own way with missed layups and roughly one million traveling calls. 

Goid news for us is we had a brief lead before a Charlotte 3 tied it up at 22; 7:41.

Jackson seems to be getting ready to boil over. He got into it a bit with Brown and the Temera just now...

Jackson turns it over and it's fed up to AJ for the dunk. 34-24 North Texas at the lest media TO of the half. 3:55

Hey good start, but they have had a lot of half leads that disappear in a hurry.  

Also of note their leading scorer didn't score at all until late in the half. If he gets going it could be trouble.

I do like they with less guys they are getting in a better flow. I'm not holding my breath but that was a decent first half. We may only see 7 guys play this half. Let's see what happens.

Was a better start to this half than the first, though Charlotte hit a little run. Benford calls TO leading 50-42; 16:13.

With the way Ricky was moving in warmups we not have much choice to keep it down to 7 players...

      What is this program missing?

      IMO, the main issue is fan support. We have a very loyal core group with lots of fun things such as the canon, the Model T car, the "North Texas" chant ... but that core group is too small. Previous administrations spent decades tamping down any enthusiasm for sports at UNT, leaving it an after thought for many alumni. It would be much easier to recruit and high great coaches if we had 25k at each game and a community that really backed the teams. Suppose we had beat Navy, went on the beat Army, and finished the year with 10 wins. I don't think that would move the needle much for next year. It would be very difficult to have enough winning seasons to slowly build a winning tradition. Long story, short ... winning at football just isn't important to enough students and alumni. I will agree with others that having our own Boone Pickens would be a great benefit if they could give a lot and have patience. I just don't see that person walking through the door anytime soon.

      Bumping because his name keeps getting thrown into the hat. Can someone please explain the appeal of Carthel for DC and exclude any “coach in waiting” argument?

      Is Chandler Morris healthy?

      Not nearly as accurately as he was before the Tulane hit.

      What is this program missing?

      Simple. UNT has never won the conference and doesn't have a signature win that captured the nation attention. No 2-10 Arkansas doesn't count. UNT also needs a Heisman Candidate to be the face of the team. It was ALMOST there with Mason Fine but it was squandered, opportunity after opportunity keep being missed. Until UNT has a marketable face of the team, actually take down P4 opponents and win the conference, the same story will keep repeating itself. UCF had Blake Bortles take them to the Fiesta Bowl and a big run followed by Milton McKenzie beating Auburn. Boise had Kellen Moore, Jared Zanbranski and others followed with wins over Oregon, Georgia, Oklahoma, etc. Cincinatti had a 14-0 run to the Sugar Bowl followed by back to back undefeated runs with Desmond Ridder. Houston had a great 2011 run with Case Keenum where we beat UCLA and Penn State in a January Bowl Game. In 2009 we beat #5 Oklahoma State and Texas Tech back to back. In 2015 with Greg Ward Jr, we went 13-1, beat Louisville, Vanderbilt, ranked Navy, ranked Memphis, ranked Temple in the AAC Championship and Florida State in the Peach Bowl 2016, we had Ward back and Ed Oliver and beat Top 5 Oklahoma and Top 5 Louisville on National TV.

      Caponi fired

      I’m saying after watching primarily bad North Texas football for going on 27 years, that I’m pretty confident we’re not building a championship calibre program here. I know he’s not going to be let go but I think we’re probably wasting our time and continuing to jade our fans. Would love to be wrong on this. And in the time of NIL/Transfer Portal mercenaries, I think you can make a change pretty much when you want and rebuild a roster. Again, we’re not gonna do it, but we could.
