DENTON, Texas – In the first year under head coach Jason Burton, the UNT women’s basketball program has announced a challenging non-conference slate for the 2023-24 season. The Mean Green will open the season with a home matchup against UNT Dallas on Nov. 6 preceded by an exhibition contest against Oklahoma Christian on Nov. 2 inside the Super Pit.
 
UNT will play 12 non-conference matchups consisting of five contests at home, five true road games and two neutral site contests.
 
After the season opener, the Mean Green will welcome Grambling State to Denton for its first DI matchup on Thursday, Nov. 9.
 
Following the first two home contests, UNT will hit the road for six straight matchups away from the Super Pit, starting with a game Sunday, Nov. 12 at Texas A&M. North Texas will be looking for its first win over the Aggies since 1999.
 
The Mean Green will then travel to Nacogdoches, Texas, to take on SFA on Thursday, Nov. 16 and to Carbondale, Illinois, to face off with Southern Illinois Sunday, Nov. 19.
 
UNT will spend the Thanksgiving holiday weekend in Hattiesburg, Miss., for the 36th Annual Lady Eagle Thanksgiving Classic hosted by Southern Miss. North Texas will take on Samford on Friday, Nov. 24 and North Dakota on Saturday, Nov. 25.
 
After the trip to Mississippi, the Mean Green return home for three consecutive home matchups, starting with a contest on Friday, Dec. 1 against Pepperdine.
 
Each of the next two contests will be inside the Super Pit as well as UNT faces off with Arkansas Pine Bluff on Wednesday, Dec. 6 and Alcorn State on Saturday, Dec. 9.
 
The final two non-conference matchups will both be road matchups against a pair of teams the Mean Green played a season ago as they will face Louisiana on Sunday, Dec. 17 and Montana State on Thursday, Dec. 21 in Lafayette, Louisiana, and Bozeman, Montana, respectively.
 
There will be a lot of new opponents this season as it will be UNT’s first matchup in program history with UNT Dallas, Grambling, Southern Illinois, North Dakota, Pepperdine and Arkansas Pine Bluff.

Earlier this year, UNT’s AAC opponents were revealed that will make up the other 20 games of the 2023-24 schedule. The Mean Green will take on UAB, Charlotte, Florida Atlantic and UTSA and SMU in both home and away contests, will welcome East Carolina, Memphis, Tulane and Wichita State to the Super Pit for the lone matchups between the programs and will travel to Rice, USF, Temple and Tulsa for road-only contests to round out the schedule.
 
The first conference dates will be December 29-31, 2023 and league play will run through March 6, 2024. The 2024 American Athletic Conference Women's Basketball Championship will expand to a 14-team tournament and be held at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas, March 9-13.

Not sure why anyone would call this challenging. UNT Dallas, ULL 16-15 (last year record), So. Illinois 12-19, North Dakota 19-13, Pepperdine 11-19, Samford 13-17, Montana St. 14-16, Texas A&M 9-20

3 SWAC teams: Grambling 10-20, Arkansas Pine Bluff 14-17, Alcorn St. 12-17

Scheduled one very challenging game, SFA 27-7

Not against scheduling for wins for a new coach, but cut the hyperbole; this is about as easy as it gets

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      Please move if needed, posting here as it's related to NIL and is probably more applicable to football than basketball. Miami basketball head coach is resigning. The following are quotes that should be of concern to any fan but especially some of your blue blood programs. What happens when you can no longer outspend your peers so your legendary coaches leave? Saban was the most name worthy retirement but there's been plenty others and here's another big name leaving. NIL will be reeled in when the big money boosters lose their favorite coaches, no longer see the wins on their records, and see they can no longer just money-whip their way to success. From the Miami Herald: “At this point, after 53 years, I just didn’t feel that I could successfully navigate this whole new world that I was dealing with because my conversations were ridiculous with an agent saying to me, `Well, you can get involved [with a prospective player] if you’re willing to go to $1.1 million, and that would be the norm.” ... “What shocked me beyond belief was after we made the Final Four just 18 months ago, the very first time I met with the players, eight of them decided they were going to put their names in the portal and leave. “I said, `Don’t you like it here?’ They’d say, `I love Miami, it’s great.’ But the opportunity to make money someplace else created a situation that you have to begin to ask yourself, as a coach, what is this all about?’’ He added that he tried “every which way” to make things work, but “last year was a disaster”, and this year was not going well, either. He felt the new players were not buying in as transfers had in years prior." https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/acc/university-of-miami/article297597538.html

      Breaking: Cash McCollum Enters Portal

      Bringing in Poffenberger, signing Jimerson and Mestemaker returning, Cash probably realized he wasn’t going to get any playing time here soon. Best of luck to him.
