DENTON – The UNT men’s basketball team’s 2024-25 American Athletic Conference schedule was announced by the league Thursday.

 

The Mean Green, who are entering year two under head coach Ross Hodge and coming off a 19-win season, will play an 18-game league schedule beginning Dec. 31 at home versus UAB and concluding on March 9 at Temple.

 

UNT’s nine home conference games are against: UAB (Dec. 31), Rice (Jan. 8), Temple (Jan. 22), Florida Atlantic (Jan. 26), UTSA (Feb. 1), Tulane (Feb. 8), Tulsa (Feb. 19), Wichita State (March 3) and Charlotte (March 6).

 

The Shockers are making their first trip to the Super Pit since Feb. 22, 1975. The same season the Super Pit first opened. Last season UNT beat WSU in Wichita, Kansas, 74-62. It was the two schools only meeting a year ago.

 

Tulsa is making its first trip to the Super Pit since March 6, 2014, when the Mean Green and Golden Hurricane were both in Conference USA. In their only meeting last season, North Texas defeated Tulsa 68-55 at the Golden Hurricane’s Reynolds Center.

 

North Texas won’t have a homestand during conference that is longer than two consecutive games and will only play back-to-back home games a total of two times.

 

The Mean Green’s nine conference road games are against: Memphis (Jan. 5), East Carolina (Jan. 14), UTSA (Jan. 18), Wichita State (Jan. 29), UAB (Feb. 3), Rice (Feb. 11), South Florida (Feb. 23), Florida Atlantic (Feb. 27) and Temple (March 9).

 

UNT makes its return this coming season to Minges Coliseum at East Carolina nearly a year to the day when they beat the Pirates on a miracle last second full-court pass and game-winning shot by then senior Robert Allen.

 

The Mean Green are making their first-ever trip to USF and the Yuengling Center on Feb. 23. It’s the start of a two-game Florida road trip for North Texas that spans over five days.

 

UNT’s regular season finale at Temple will be their first trip to the Owls. They beat Temple last season in their only meeting, 69-51, in Denton.

 

The 2025 American Athletic Conference Men’s Basketball Championship begins March 12 and runs through March 16 at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth.

Wish we were playing Memphis later in the year when the new guys have had a chance to figure out their roles, but I guess it will give us an early idea of how good a team we can be?

      High Point looks to be a real tough (under the radar) test. We should be prepared for that.

      Why is the big white kid not playing?

      Hodge, and really McCasland before him, seem to have a lot of reluctance to playing underclassmen. the trio of Rubin, Abou and Scott all starting as sophomores is the last real example of kids getting a shot. I'd be surprised if Vice (or Cotton, or Mason) gets much run v. McNeese...they'll likely play v. TWU and get some run in that December home-stand, but unless one of them real distinguishes themselves I think the rotation is pretty well set.

      5 conference games today, the most interesting being FAU having to come right back after a 2OT loss to play 3-0 Liberty. Minnesota hosts Yale, who already gave 13 ranked Purdue a hell of a game...so their board might be in full meltdown later this evening.

      Around the League / UNT Opponents

      11/16...not a good night for the league...3 tough loses all by 3 points - UAB loses to High Point (UNT opponent on 12/6...they're now 4-0) 68-65. Butter Johnson showed up 21 off the bench...looks like he'd been struggling and responded with a reserve role...Lendeborg had 17-15, but UAB didn't have anyone else in double-figures. - FAU lost on a 3-pt buzzer beater to Charleston 119-116 in double OT. looks like not a lick of defense was played in this game...would've been fun to watch...both teams shot north of 50% from the floor and from three...FAU put six dudes in double figures lead by Louisville transfer Kaleb Green, but got done in by the leading scorer in the country Ante Brzovic who had 39 including the winner - Temple lost to Boston College 72-69. Temple were down as many as 14 in the first half, took a second half lead, but couldn't hang on. Jamal Mashburn Jr. looks to be a problem, but Temple doesn't seem to have much beyond him. - Memphis and USF won games they should have...Tulane lost to a 4-0 Furman.
