Really big opportunity for UNT to take control of first place if we can take care of 14-21, 5-7 UAB on the road this weekend while FAU has to battle in North Carolina with a Charlotte team that gave us fits last year and just took 2 of 3 from Wichita State.

Mackenzie Childers has been so good lately. But not today......gives up 2 in the first, and 3 so far in the second....we're down 5-0.....UAB still batting in second. (one out)

7-0 loss. Started out badly....and never recovered. 

Rodney started emptying his bench....playing everyone.

The good news is.......we lost the first game at USF...then came back to win the series. Hopefully, we do that again.

Go Mean Green!!!

Yes.  This appears to be a much tougher league in all sports.

Finally broke through and scored our first run in the series....in the fifth. Up 1-0. Nice rbi single by Cierra drove in Lexi Cobb.

Skylar has pitched four shutout innings. Got out of a bases loaded jam in the 4th.

I personally think our team needs to be a lot more aggressive at the plate. We take way too many first pitches. And we get way too many strike outs looking. Just my opinion.

Blown opportunity in the 7th. Runners on first and second, no one out.

Cierra Simon can't get a bunt down....on two tries. Then is caught looking on a third strike.

Mikayla comes up....and hits a hard ball to the pitcher....who throws to third for one out....and then 3b throws to first for the double play. (That's almost an impossible DP in softball).

2-2 going to the bottom of the 7th.

Bottom of the 8th....UAB coming up.....UNT ahead 3-2.

I haven't had much to say about this year's team. I've had concerns, but wanted to refrain from negative comments. But, today's loss was beyond terrible. With the game on the line, there is no good reason to try and throw a runner out at second, when a runner is standing on 3rd. That was completely stupid. This team is mentally weak, and has regressed from where it was just two seasons ago. Like last season, our bats are struggling. The only difference from last season, is our pitching is a little worse too. Yes, we played a stronger OOC schedule, but we didn't beat any of those ranked teams either. From what I've seen so far, this team won't win the conference title or make a regional. And that is just sad considering where this program was just two seasons ago. Something has to change. 

I'll ask this question again..... Has DeLong taken this program as far as he can?

The answer is no. Yes, this weekend was terrible, but I think it is all mental. We take the number 7 team in the country to the wire and can't get past an average UAB team. That points to mentality. They have made way too many errors and stupid plays. That is all mental. Is it coaching as well, yes. I think DeLong has to get them focused again and I think he can. I think he needs to take a page from Jason Burton. Stop thinking about championships and think about winning each game. Championships will take care of themselves if you do that.

      If I was Coach Hodge, I would have this blown up and posted in the locker room. I would tell the players that this is what people think of you and we need to go out and dominate every team defensively until people start putting some respect on our name. Then when people do start to put some respect on our name, we need to dominate teams some more to leave no doubt.

      Some are arguing on their board about who's better between Yale and UNT. They really can't get past the UNT loss. I really want to get poporn and make an account just to let them know we've finished higher than MN in NET every year since 2020.

      I think this is a cop-out. He’s been doing this crap since the beginning of his tenure. The first memorable time was against Navy last year on the first drive of the game from the 1. If in the 5th game of year 1 he was already feeling like he needed to score every drive because of the defense, that's an even bigger problem. I think not having a reliable kicker or punter is the main problem. He went for the points a few times early this season and it didn't work out. Same with some punts that just don't do a good job at flipping the field. I've mentioned in other threads that special teams has also been a problem. Evans is 89th in the country in average punt yardage. We have to have a short kicker and a long kicker. Who the eff does that at this level? That's two coordinators that Morris flopped out on. I'm just waiting on us to move on from Svobada at season's end. Was looking over his profile and I didn't know but he also has Tight Ends this year. Where have the Tight Ends been lately??
