Thank goodness they are leaving the AAC. Don’t need them dragging our ratings down.

Let me know when UNT makes a Sweet 16, and by that I mean the real Sweet 16 not the rinky-dink Not Invited Tournament.

Real talk, I didn't think they were unbeatable, but I honestly didn't expect this

Houston is 5-11 overall in the NIT… how sad.

My, my, you are testy.   
 

Guess you’re sore your team failed to advance, much like you did as a North Texas student

And UNT has never been in a Final 4, Elite 8 or Sweet 16. How sad.

My degree is from a school with better academics. This makes no sense.

We could get there if a coach would stick and build the team. Oh Houston is 3-3 in the CBI as well…. Outside of just recently 2018-2019 Houston basketball wasnt anything special. A lucky year hete or there like many. It’s not the 80s anymore. Houston could easily drop again. Lucky they got invited to another conference. They avoid some “lower level” schools who would run them off the court. I guess losing to Oklahoma State or Baylor is better.

Houston was the #1 team in the country most of the season, were they not?  High expectations in H town and the cougars laid a fat egg.

And yet here you are talking about your team on our board. You couldn’t wait to see what we had here to say about li’l ol’ Houston that needed you to come avenge their honor.
 

You seriously enjoy it around here? I feel like you come in and try to kick everyone in the nuts yet every time your tactics end up getting everyone to kick you in the nuts.

The tournament is about who is the best, but it's not solely about that.  It's also about luck (both good and bad) as well as matchups.  Houston had a great season.  So did Alabama.  Hell, so did Kansas and Purdue. (And I haven't even mentioned the two seed trio of UCLA, Arizona, Marquette)

 

March isn't a total crapshoot, but there's a reason why this is probably the toughest tournament to win.  It takes six (or even seven if you go through the First Four) games within three weeks where you have to be in top form.  In a row.  No off nights like the NBA or NHL or MLB.  And unlike the NFL or CFB where the sheer number of players means no one (not even a QB) having the game of his life will get you a victory...in the Big Dance some unknown kid from South Eastern Middle State of the Sacred Heart can get hot and put up 45, thereby taking down a giant.

DeepGreen wanted smoke and I brought some heat. You should see what gets posted on the Big 12 boards and Facebook groups, I don't think most of you guys would survive on there.

Didn't see the game. How many of the Miami players were on the team last year when they beat us by 6 points early in the season?

I think you're kinda proving the opposite, honestly.  Not exactly displaying a thick skin here.  And who posts on Facebook groups?  Are you an 80 year old woman? 😁

SMU taught me how to live rent-free on here. 

Power 5 Facebook groups are filled with people of varying ages.

 

Of course, UNT has never played big time sports, so I forgive you for not knowing that
