North Texas has made the NIT four times. North Texas has also made the NIT four times in a row. Before 2022? No NIT’s. Since 2022? NIT every year.
In 2022, the Mean Green fell to Virginia in overtime in the second round. In 2023, the Tylor Perry and Kai Huntsberry team won it all before Grant McCasland left for Texas Tech. In 2024, the Mean Green fell to Seton Hall in the second round. Seton Hall went on to win the title.
