unless the team has been coming by GMG.com and posting about our 7 coaches poll votes, I think the headline reading blame might lie elsewhere.

Has anyone considered that this team isn’t top 25 or even top of the conference? The early season didn’t tell us much and conference games against inferior have been disappointing.  I hope they p

So you’re saying you would like victory to be in store, no matter the score?

Nothing is certain in the league this year. UTSA shat the bed against MUTS last night. MUTS was 3-12 coming into the game. So we are tied for 2nd with Ballsack.

I also watched FAU/Marshall last night. Both of those teams are going to very tough. I wouldn't be surprised if the league champ ended up with 5 to 6 conference losses.

Anyone know if they’re running any promos for this game.  Bringing the family and it gets expensive to get a family of 5 in.

I haven't seen any ticket specials, but kids wearing a jersey get in free on Saturdays...below is from the Mean Green Insider newsletter dated 1/4/19.  GMG

Does it matter what kind of jersey? Can it be a football jersey or does it have to be basketball?

It doesn't specify and when announcements have been made at the game, they only say "jersey."  My kid is wearing his UNT football jersey so that should work.  Actually, I suppose any jersey would work (NFL, NHL, school, etc.) since the language is broad.

Okay so they do not even specify a North Texas Jersey? That's odd. Thank you for the information.

I sent an email to the ticket office to clarify but not sure if I'll hear back in time.  If I do, I'll post it here.

They now have markers on the seats for season ticket holders. Definitely a great move by the AD on this one. Literally every game but 2 over the last 4 years and change people were in our seats.

Forgot to mention... while we were walking to the food provided by the AD department today we passed Rice coach talking to a reporter (clearly not from here) and he said they are most concerned about Simmons and they are going to try to stop him from getting the ball because UNT tried to get him a touch most every possession. Also slow down Ryan Woolridge. Let’s hooe they fail at both. 🙂

Starting to get that sick feeling in my stomach 

We just haven’t been able to hit shots the past couple of games. I am not sure what is going on but for a team that’s going to play 4 guards we better run the floor and hit our shots if we want to win this conference.

      A Volleyball Coach To Consider??

      Not sure if we'd hire a guy...as we replaced Jalie with a guy. And I think they like to have at least some women's head coaches. Found this guy....at Arkansas State. They're 26-5..... https://astateredwolves.com/sports/womens-volleyball/roster/coaches/brian-gerwig/980

      How 'Bout Some Blame For The BOR?

      I'm turning into Scotty after this weekend. The team had broken me.

      The Band

      I personally think that the playing music over the PA at times when the band would typically be playing has negatively impacted the cadence for when and how the band plays during the games. I don't want to be all old man about it, but if I want to listen to the stuff that is played on the PA system (majority of which I actually do like), I have about 10 different devices I can play that on myself. When I go to a college football game, I want to hear the friggin' band play during timeouts and between plays, when appropriate. It's college football, not an NBA game. When I look back at attending games at Fouts as a student in the 90s', I absolutely remember the band playing, and I enjoyed it then just as I do now. If they were playing other music, maybe they were, but I would have no memory of that whatsoever. Additionally, I know there has been some other negative thoughts about the band overall, and not that I have been in band since I played trumpet as a sophomore in high school so I am no expert, but I was absolutely blown away by the halftime performance this week. I know majority of it was a rehash of other bits and pieces that had already been done this year, but damn that was a strong close.

      yes! 12 seed, 30-win, Will-Wades-been-to-6-straight-postseasons-including-S16, McNeese! Y'all (not necessarily you GJ)! Take off your football glasses. There are incredible programs dwelling in these off-name conferences. We have useful metrics that can validate their quality of ball, regardless of name/conference affiliation.

      And immediately lost to McNeese. I get it. A talented McNeese team, but, McNeese ?
