Per another season ticket holder the last two home dates are 11/11 at 7pm and 12/11 at a time TBD. Opponents still unknown.

I predict these dates will be filled with one of the following:

LSU Shreveport

UT Permian Basin

Texas A&M Central Texas

University of Nebraska Kearney

Wisconsin Eau Claire

Lol I'm still holding on hope for UNC Asheville (the opponent App State lost allowing us to get the Mountaineers on our schedule). Both of those dates would work, though 11/11 would just force them to extend a road trip to Ohio on 11/9.

That game on 12/11 in the middle of exam week would likely be a local NAIA/D2 team which at this point I'm fine with. 16 home games is one more than last year. And we had two non D-I opponents last season so that would also be progress.

TCU and SMU have no interest playing us. They know we have squads on their level and wont risk the loss.

Give me UTA...close to each other and a rival game

Being close does not make them a rival for us, otherwise TWU would be our main women's rival... 

I think UTA ended the MBB series.  They were tired of being curb-stomped by us every year.

They weren't curb stomped by us, every year. The last time we played down there (Mac's last year)....the game was a nail biter. I think we won by four. 

I've looked up a lot of mid-major's schedules....especially ones that would make good opponents. And they all have schedules similar to ours. Play some name teams....at tourneys or on the road. And fill your home schedule with 2-3 schools that no one has ever even heard of.

I always thought the UTA game was a good idea for both programs.  not only would it be attractive to fans and alumni from both schools in the area, when you factor in the rankings its almost a no brainer.  UTA finished 129 in NET, UNT 79 last season, in Kenpom UTA is currently at 159 and UNT is sitting at 80.  A close game between these schools would benefit both schools in the rankings.

According to Meangreensports.com, the schedule has been finalized....

DENTON — The UNT men's basketball team on Friday finalized its 30-game 2024-25 regular season schedule. 

The season, which begins on Nov. 5 with a home game versus Evansville at 7 p.m. CT at the Super Pit, features 16 home contests against opponents such as Oregon State on Nov. 25, Appalachian State on Dec. 20, UAB on Dec. 31, Florida Atlantic on Jan. 26 and Wichita State makes its return to the Super Pit for the first time since 1975 on March 3. ......

I promise I’ll be at every home game, but this might be the worst non-conference schedule I’ve seen.  Oregon State ?  They went 13-19 (?) last season.  

Oregon State made the Elite 8 in the last five years.

Shhh, if they didn’t make AT LEAST the Sweet 16 last year they are NOT worthy to step on the hallowed Super Pit floor

Why is it so hard to get a decent team to The Pit? I love UNT basketball but c’mon, Texas Wesleyan is an embarrassment. Think there are DFW high school teams that can beat Texas Wesleyan. Hard to motivate myself for a 2 hour round trip drive for that matchup.

      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.

      Seems like you've gotten over the speeding ticket well.

      Caponi fired

      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??
