Because he continues to act all pompous about his basketball knowledge even though it’s been clear he was never on the UNT roster and has never been on the UNT coaching staff and most likely not any basketball staff. Just likes to throw nonsense around, but claims to be very good at the sport and have a lot of knowledge. Plus makes ludicrous comments about spelling etc…. As if everyone sits at a computer to type or is even looking at their phone when typing.

It's a forum. OUR school just won a huge game on national TV in front of a huge home crowd which is what we've been clamoring for. Put it to rest for one evening and enjoy the win together (online)?

What a great win!!!

I'm still trying to get my stomach out of my mouth.

I could still feel my heart pounding several minutes after the end.
Luckily I had just watched that ESPN Bayer heart ad, so I grabbed an aspirin and dialed 9...1... just in case. Never had to hit the other 1!

Anyways, my 7 and 5 year old boys were wanting to finish the game before bed so we finished watching on my phone in their room. They were so happy North Texas won. This was a great win, especially after the Charlotte showing.

Ross Hodge is the guy. We've seen incredible progress in this short season.

top 10 maybe top 5 win in program history? either way feels great to be a Mean Green fan tonight

First you guys need to stop fighting aftwr such a big win. Take that shit outside.

fantastic victory however we were like 6 of 16 from the FT line so it could have been a blowout.

Buggs deserves the game ball.

I do take it outside…. Played with lots of people but CBL isn’t invited 🤣

I think the 16 assists on 25 made FGs tonight is my favorite stat of the night...that's with a couple direct breakaway buckets. Ruben was a part of that, but man CJ was good on the ball tonight.

Walker and Allen can split the game ball for me...Allen with a double-double and Walker was everywhere and seemed to relish the challenge of guarding Phelps.

Edwards has the memory of a goldfish...big part of what makes him great.

guess Buggs just needed a shoulder realignment. massive game from him.

GMG_Dallas · January 26

The mentor agrees.

CMJ · January 26

Not even sure who I'd give the game ball to tonight. It was really a team win - about five guys have a case for it to be honest.

NT80 · January 26

The lineup was much more solid tonight and better depth. I hope Rubin is a quick heal; the team looked and played a lot more confident with him in there.

TreeFiddy · January 26

So happy for the team and happy to see the large student turnout getting rewarded with a great game. Hopefully it will drive more attendance. This team deserves some big crowds. Awesome win.

Big Z · January 26

What was the deal with Rubin?

NT80 · January 26

How many stopped breathing at the end of game when $mut launched that 3-ball? Shouldn't have been that close. More free throw practice for everyone tomorrow!!

CMJ · January 26

Hamstring injuries can be really nagging. I don't wanna go too big into stressing out, but I've seen players deal with them for a whole season and never be 100%.

aggravated the hammy. can't imagine he'll be good for FAU

NT91 · January 26

Go Mean Green. Basketball can do what football can’t.

tmjerm · January 26

THATS WHY THEY CALL IT THE SUPER PIT! More of that. Hope our fans keep showing out (even through the adversity of losses). This is a good basketball league and we will face some losses Im sure. These dudes still deserve that kinda crowd every night. So tough! Let’s be tough for em too! Proud to be an Eagle!

For sure. Should have been a 10 point win but considering what they battled through this game, it's an incredible win. My Mavs would do well to watch North Texas to get a lesson on mental fortitude and fighting as a team.

CMJ · January 26

Eight of nineteen from the charity stripe isn't gonna get it done - but it's also very out of character for us. The fact that we won despite that is super impressive.

A little fecal matter found its way out mid-flight.

I haven’t looked at the stats relative to other schools over the course of the last six or seven years, but missing free throws has been such a shocking frustration for an otherwise comepletely discipline team. My expectations from the strip always seem too high I guess but we would really do well to build a better culture around FTs. I do know we’ve been solid at times but we can be better.

WE'RE A BASKETBALL SCHOOL

You can’t convince me otherwise. 17 home wins in a row with a packed house and a rowdy crowd with a team win! Down vote me all you want; we don’t need football.

true. but the fact that Allen was our volume shooter from the line makes me worry about the overall line a bit less.
