We may have seen the glory days of UNT basketball
If you thought beating Texas Wesleyan was an insignificant win, then I would have to agree with you. I don’t care what sport it is, if North Texas beats a Big 10 or Big 12 team, I think that is a really big deal: especially men’s basketball. Just curious: what would you consider a significant win? -

Same deal in Mansfield 85 million just ridiculous. Meantime, Spring Branch ISD still uses Tully Stadium for ALL if its high schools and updates it as time passes. -

Jubb reunited with UNT?
I saw Jub at games last year. He was there as a fan and not in an official role. -

You could not be more misinformed on the stadium side. I lived in Katy in 2017 when they built the $70.3 million dollar stadium right next door to their old stadium that while at time could fill up was not full for football on most Fridays. This is the stadium that is often credited with the stadium building boom (though Northwest ISD did this model many years before) Colossal waste of money correct? That was what I thought but I found out that is was not. At the time Katy had 5 high schools and had 2 more under construction with one completed and waiting to open. The district is so big that it creates it own UIL district. Prior to the new stadium all games were played at Rhodes Stadium (9,768 seats), 3 games a week. Games would start on Thursday and end Saturday. With the new schools opening they would not be able to play all the games. Options considered were building stadiums at the schools at a cost of around $25M per school, or pool the money and build 1 state of the art facility. The choice was clear. Now on any given game night you had a game at the new Legacy Stadium (12,000 seats) and one at Rhodes Stadium still have to play on Saturday but gets the games completed. In the Spring Soccer takes over and the stadium. Students run the stadium as part of their classes - Scoreboard, audio/visual, and concessions with adult supervision of course. I would say that on any given week the stadium is used 6 of the 7 days during the school year. Varsity and JV sports, Band, Cheer, and events. It is even opened up for peewee sports. It is used for playoffs in both football and soccer. During the summer it host camps.- 1

Here in Florida the old women wear Jayne Russell bikinis and the old men wear banana hammocks.- 1
