Wanted to start a thread to see how many people would be interested in meeting up before the first game on Thursday.

Looked around the Star and a lot of places are very fancy. There are some a little bit down Gaylord, but it would be good to go somewhere that is within walking distance.

Maybe The Frisco Bar or Concrete Cowboy?

looking on google maps I see a few places in the same complex... Trophy Park Sports Lounge,  City Works Eatery and Pour House, Concrete Cowboy.  I have not been up there, so not really sure what these places are like.

How about getting some tents going in the parking lot ? A couple of kegs and one bottles of Jameson

Keep an eye out on social media for the announcement that Cane Rosso will be the official NT Alumni pre-game meet up spot.

Yes!! I knew you would come through for us again @UNT 90 Grad!!

I’ll take credit for letting you know about it, but I can’t take credit for arranging it.  That credit goes to the hard working grossly understaffed folks employed by the UNT Alumni Association.

Still doesn't look like you can buy single game tickets from the ticket office....

If you want people to buy from you, make it possible...

I bought mine directly off of seat geek like I did last year, so I can choose specific sessions. I guess I’m not doing the right thing in support of the university but they haven’t offered any single session tickets, only all tournament passes and I can’t make it Friday so it does me no good.

Difficult to help the university if they don’t Help themselves.

What if UNT is not allowed to sell single session tickets yet?

      Are other team eyeing Coach Hodge?

      don't get me wrong, I definitely think he is on the radar of a lot of ADs. Hodge was pretty well-regarded even while he was still an assistant. I just don't think that without a noteworthy win/run in post-season this year, that many P4 ADs would be terribly comfortable presenting Hodge with his current resume to their fan-base...2 seasons at a mid-major, a 6th and 2nd/3rd place finish in the AAC, 1-1 in the NIT. as for those 150 programs with deeper purses...how many of those would really be a step up in program? some here like to say Grant just left for money...they're idiots, though. he left for a step up in program/conference/support and the bigger paycheck is a nice cherry. like do you really think if Rice or UTSA could up his salary, that Hodge would bolt? I sure don't. he's almost certainly only leaving for a P4 program...maybe a MWC job like UNLV or a WCC gig. how many of those jobs are going to be available? 20? even then I'll circle back and ask how many of those fan-bases would take Hodge on his current resume? https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/insider/story/_/id/43999670/mens-college-basketball-coaching-carousel-hot-seats-candidates-2025 of the above list, maybe UNLV or Loyola Marymount could offer more money, more support and be thought of as a step up and willing to take a flier on a 2nd year head coach without a conference title. I can't see selling that to any of the P4s on the list

      Evan Johnson passes away

      Saw Michael Lawrence’s post on IG and he confirmed that former RB Evan Johnson is dead as a result of a car accident.

      Ranting about the AD, Students, Attendance and Fan Support

      The ESPN radio show for Univ. of KY basketball said last week that Norman, OK is the new Starkville of the SEC for basketball game day experience. They said that even with $1 beer and hotdogs, OU couldn't entice a descent crowd against the Wildcats and one fan even threw a full beer can at a player. UK had enough fans to make it sound like a home game. Even OU is struggling to get it right. I attended UNT/OU football game in 1991 & that it was an excellent experience, however. The OU fans were welcoming and hospitable so maybe it's just basketball. Also, Wren lives in West Virginia now. I can't name one good reason to live in WV & I live next door in KY. Denton is a far better place. Money isn't going to fix the flaws there either. Perhaps he can move on to a better place one day and that is his plan.

      Are other team eyeing Coach Hodge?

      This is my take on it. From what I have heard he loves Texas and so many ties here. His family loves it here. It would be really hard for him to move. On the other hand, it might be hard to turn down double or triple pay.
