Hate that we always have a home game Thanksgiving weekend when the students are out. 

Actually November 23rd is the weekend before Thanksgiving.  Do students get off the entire week these days?

I didn't look at the calendar. The students are out the week leading up to Thanksgiving. They still may head out for the break and skip the game.

Did they officially give them the whole week off? As a student from 14-17 I was still having classes on the Wednesday before if the professor was a big enough douche.

Looks like they get the whole week off now. Back in my days as a student (2008-2011), students were expected to attend class Monday and Tuesday while Wednesday was unofficially "off".

In 2001-2005, iirc, Wednesday wasn’t guaranteed either.

How many hurricanes has Tulsa endured throughout the years?

 

Golden Hurricanes. Like a golden shower but more dudes, I would guess. Probably gets pretty boring in Tulsa. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I yelled that at a Tulsa fan during the 08 or 09 game. This old lady told me, actually we had a hurricane hit last year. Drunk me was caught off guard. So was the Mendoza defense as we lost by 30 plus points.

That would have been Gary DeLoach by that point.  But no, the defense didn't improve much, if any, under him.

It was so bad that I couldn't remember lol.

Who do we think is the homecoming opponent this year?

September 28th against Tulsa may be too early but might be the best pick. Winnable game and by itself wouldn't be a high seller.

October 26th against Tulane I don't like the date and will still be a tough game.

November 9th against Army is winnable but I think would be a good attended game regardless.

Just wish we could also bring back the parade.

Good question: Tulsa might be the best date.

SFA would is likely Family Night.

It's 100% going to be Tulane. UNT always has homecoming late October/early November. Last year we could have scheduled homecoming on 10/14 against dreadful Temple, but for whatever reason we opted for the much harder opponent, Memphis, on 10/28. This was also the same day as Denton's Day of the Dead Festival, which made the decision even more odd. I've never heard a reason why, but come hell or high water, UNT wants their homecoming later in the year. Even if the date doesn't make much sense like last year.

I'll give you a reason.  The same morons that make this decision are probably the same that got rid of the HC parade and have sent out the same form letter response regarding it for the past couple of years.  Lazy, don't consult anyone, etc...  I love my university, but their are some idiots running the asylum at times.

What is the reasoning again for no parade? Something to do with waste?

They were hiring for a Director of Marketing and Fan Engagement recently. Hope they brought someone on with common sense.

      UNT Basketball Beats Oregon State, 58-55

      DENTON – Atin Wright hit a game-winning 3-pointer with seven seconds remaining as the UNT men’s basketball team defeated Oregon State 58-55 at the Super Pit on Monday night. Three North Texas (5-1) players finished with double-digit point totals as the Mean Green remained undefeated at home this season. Latrell Jossell finished with a season and game-high 15 points. Brenen Lorient scored a career-high 14 points, extending his streak of double-digit point games to three. UNT has now beaten two high-major teams this regular season — they defeated Minnesota 54-51 on Nov. 13. It’s the first time they’ve accomplished that since the 2010-11 season when they beat Texas Tech and LSU in the same year during the regular season. The Mean Green continued to be one of the most efficient defensive teams in the country, forcing 22 Beavers turnovers, UNT’s highest total since Nov. 26, 2020 when the Mean Green defeated Mississippi Valley State 116-62 at home. "Our ability to turn them over 22 times in a one-possession game was the separator," head coach Ross Hodge said. " That's a really good team that can really shoot. We talked about it in one of the [media timeouts] that we were going to really have to string together some of our best defensive possessions and I thought that group in the second half was really good." North Texas took a close 26-25 lead into the locker room at halftime. Oregon State (4-2) came out hot to begin the second half and held the lead until the 5:38 mark. 13 of the Beavers’ 22 turnovers came in the second half, ultimately leading to the Mean Green’s close victory. North Texas travels to Kissimmee, Fla. to take on Northern Iowa on Thursday at 7 p.m. CT for their first game of the NIT Season Tip-Off. For more information on UNT Basketball tickets, contact the Mean Green Ticket Office at 940-565-2527 or at ticketoffice@unt.edu. Fans can purchase tickets at www.meangreentickets.com or visit the UNT Athletics Ticket Office located at Gate 2 of DATCU Stadium between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

      The Band

      high school band director was a mistake. band has regressed. drumline is abysmal, no confidence, no arrogance, no true talent. last 2 years the drumline has been the worst since the 80s. need to drop that best damn band in the land and best drumline in college football....not even close to being true.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      We are starting to cut into the deficit created by the first game compared to last year. Now only down 8.72% in terms of average attendance. Last night was the highest game 4 attendance of the last four years, but to be honest, I was a little disappointed it was only 3,292 for a "name" opponent (yes, even during Thanksgiving week). November 25 was our earliest game 4, but a much stronger opponent. The previous 3 years it was 12/4 (LSU Shreveport), 12/3 (Omaha) and 12/2 (Miss Valley State) respectively. I mentioned this during the in-game thread, but the ESPN+ broadcast sounds like the commentators are off site in a soundproof room or something. Not hearing the crowd noise and the excitement in the arena really detracts from the game experience. Need a better audio production. I switched to the radio stream and it was much better from that perspective.

      Oregon State (11/25/24)

      Oh I agree with the philosophy in general, just not how it's being executed currently. baring quick foul trouble or a dumb mistake, I'd prefer to not make any changes until at least the first 4 min timeout. let your starters find some kind of rhythm in the game. I've noted numerous times already this season of a player knocking down a shot or two and/or making a few key plays and then getting sat...Jossell in the McNeese loss leaps to mind, I know its happened to Dello a few times as well. I'm gonna assume Hodge's rationale is that at least the first few subs are scripted and he's asking so much of his team on the defensive end that he wants to keep a sharper rotation, but it feels a little extreme to me right now and not always in tune with the flow of the game/a player's night we're not quite approach Benford-esque line-changes (though maybe only b/c Hodge doesn't have ten players he trusts), but it's bugging me just as much
