We have a schedule...just not a complete schedule

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

Sometimes it's just hard to be a fan of UNT. SMH.

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....

Men's Basketball Finalizes Schedule

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. ......

But has it really been finalized?

My guess is this has already been decided but they're still waiting on a game contract to be signed or some technicality.

greenjoe · November 1

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.

Shark84 · November 1

I would have liked to see one more good mid major at our place but our conference home schedule will be plenty tough and some great matchups.

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

I wasn't sure whether to post it in this thread or in Matt's but . . .

Our wait is finally over. Texas Wesleyan is the opponent on November 21st at the Super Pit. Get your popcorn ready.
