Yeah I watched a little bit of this and just laughed when they said that North Texas is a good defensive team "for what they are". I can't blame them though, I'd be salty too.

“What they are” is a team that just sent them home with tears in their eyes.

…for what they are….

*checks D1 defensive rankings.  Don’t have to look very long since “we are” the #1 friggin team in the country!*
 

Agrees with the sad badger fan.

I don't think TP has a single shot this second half.  If your best shooter doesn't score, you are not winning.

Well, normally yes but wrong this time.

I think we’re our best when we’re not relying on TP to score.

Badgers!?  We don't need no stinkin' badgers!

This team is insane!  I was out celebrating my wife’s birthday so had to avoid all media for a couple hours.  Had to DVR the game and just finished watching it.  So, while all your heart rates are back to normal (maybe), I’m still bouncing off the walls.  What a game.  Toughest team wins!!!  So proud of the way these guys never give up.

Did you hear someone sprained their ankle during the Rubin, Kai interview?

Do we want UAB or UVU for the NIT FINAL??

Whatever happens in the Final, we will forever be listed...

Don’t sleep on UVU.  They are a gritty team and as much as I hate to say it may do a better green than yours truly.

I believe Rubin said he sprained his ankle. Maybe that’s why he didn’t play too much in the first half?

Thank you!

UAB and UVU in OT. Hope they go another OT. Just wear yourselves out.

UNT just can't escape the semifinal of anything 

You make these two comments the entire game. Go plan a city or find a way to set our athletic facilities right across the street from our dorms so the students don’t die walking 15 minutes. Did you even watch the game?  Something tells me you are just a smuT troll.

Y’all mad I’m right or just mad he is leaving?

Mad we can’t watch a game without someone making up something just to stir the pot. I watched Mac keeping calm and coaching his ass off.

So Mac staying calm is the normal?

It’s called coaching. The team needed to calm down and get back in the game. The last thing they needed to see was Mac panicking. Hell of a coaching job tonight. Plus, I believe the man has too much character to tank on these young men, our fans and this university. It’s not who he is.

Nobody said tanking. I know one thing though we won that game on defense. Either Hodge is truly in charge of defense and deserves the job or Grant took control of the defense and Hodge does not deserve the job.

It's why you have a coaching staff.  Kind of like a team.  Everyone has a role.  Put down the bottle and go to bed.

Stating his body language looked like he was already in Lubbock is basically stating he looks like he doesn't care ala "tanking".

[greenminer]

Mac looked like regular Mac. I didn’t think for a second his body language is different.

This podcast has a number of f-bombs and loads of adverts. But they clearly watch more CBB than most pundits. At the end they discuss their picks for the final.
