DENTON, Texas – Tez Dumars has been named assistant coach of North Texas women’s basketball, head coach Jalie Mitchell announced Tuesday. Dumars has served as the Founder and Executive Director of the West Texas Premier Basketball Club in Amarillo for the past two years.  

 “I am elated to announce the hiring of Tez Dumars”, Mitchell said. “He is a knowledgeable, hungry and growing young coach full of energy and excitement about the game, as well as the University of North Texas. His experience at different levels and relatability will help us a great deal in recruiting and player development. Tez is a star and proven winner, a welcome addition to our program!”

 

Prior to his time in Amarillo, he spent several seasons coaching and directing one of the DC Queens Club branches. In 2018-19, Dumars rejoined his alma mater West Texas A&M as an assistant coach. The Buffs went 34-4 and finished the season in the NCAA Division II Elite Eight.

 

After finishing his collegiate career in 2015, Dumars played professionally overseas with Anagennises Germasogeia and ForexTime Apollon of the Cyprus Division A League. During his first year as a pro he averaged 18.5 points per game and shooting 38.7% from the field and 32.8% from three-point range. He spent the 2016-17 season in Limassol, Cyprus with ForexTime Apollon.

 

A native of Dallas, Texas, Dumars manned the point for West Texas A&M for four seasons in Canyon. When he graduated, he was the fourth-highest scorer in school history with 1,230 points. As a Bluff he earned a bachelor’s (2015) in science of general studies. While playing at Garland Lakeview Centennial HS, he led the team to the Texas 5A State Finals as a junior and senior. Dumars was a four-year starter for the Patriots and also excelled in the classroom as a Texas Scholar.

 

QUOTING ASSISTANT COACH DUMARS (@tezdumars2)

“I’m super thrilled to get the opportunity to coach at the University of North Texas. Ever since I was little, I wanted to be around the game whether it was playing or coaching. It’s a dream come true to coach at UNT considering it’s in my backyard. I’m excited to get to work!”

Interesting hire. It looks like he has been coaching the West Texas Premier Basketball Club in Amarillo for the past couple of years. They always seem to have good teams in that area. Hopefully he can bring some players.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      Third home game in a row under 3K in attendance and 4th for the season. Now at 2,947, average attendance is down almost 13% (439 per game) compared to the first 7 home games last year. We are now down 1,185 in average attendance compared to last season's full year average. The home conference slate kicks off with UAB on New Year's Eve. Hopefully, we will be able to chip away at this attendance deficit as some familiar foes visit the Super Pit, but it looks like hitting a 4K average and growing average attendance for the 3rd year in a row is becoming increasingly out of reach. Just win and they will come they said. SMH. On the bright side, we're currently sitting at 9-3 and 7-0 at home and own the 2nd best Net rating in the conference only behind Memphis. Unfortunately, the conference is incredibly weak this year so we don't have many opportunities to improve that ranking. Aside from winning on the road at Memphis, holding serve in terms of a Net rating may be the best we can do from here. Actually, looking at the schedule, we do have three Q2 road games (Wichita St, FAU and Temple). They need to keep winning and we will need to win those three to improve our resume.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Tell me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf without telling me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf. Here is SMU’s attendance claim for this season; one so amazing that they made a nifty graphic for it. The only issue? Well, they played 7 home games and the stadium seats 32k…so an average attendance of 32,651 which is standing room only and beyond capacity is a bit difficult to swallow and leads one to believe that only believers in SMU math would buy it. And save me the “but look at North Texas’ attendance” garbage. Even someone as committed to being separated from reality as you knows that if North Texas 1) bought their way into the ACC to allow us to fill our stadium with opposing fans, 2) overpaid for players, and 3) had the easiest conference schedule possible to stack wins…Apogee would have been LEGITIMATELY sold out. And let me save you the trouble of the next silly argument you were just itching to type as a retort…yes, we have far more alumni, but we are not situated DEAD CENTER in a city of 1.3 Million people like SMU has been for decades

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      Come to think of it, ESPN and the other networks who really benefit from all of this, should contribute $$ to a NIL fund and distribute equally to each schools NIL for them to use at their discretion. Wouldn't that be fair?

      Say you didn't see any SMU crowds this season, without saying you didn't see any SMU home crowds this season. That place was packed and rocking, like nobody could've dreamed.
