North Texas Men’s Basketball Tilt Against Houston Moved To The Super Pit

Courtesy: University of North Texas

DENTON (12/5/05) -- The North Texas men’s basketball game against Houston on December 23, originally scheduled to be played in Houston at 7 p.m., has been moved to Denton and the tip time changed from 7 p.m. to 1 p.m. to accommodate the Cougars kick-off time of 7 p.m. in the Fort Worth Bowl on the same day.

Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased through the North Texas ticket office at 940-565-2527 or 1-800-UNT-2366. The game can still be heard live on the Mean Green Radio Network as well (KWRD 100.3 FM, KNTU 88.1 FM, KPXI (100.3 FM), KAFR (88.3 FM)), starting with the pregame at 12:30 p.m.

North Texas is currently 2-2 overall and 2-0 at home, while Houston is 3-1 after coming off a victory over No. 15 Arizona last Saturday. The Cougars are 1-0 in road games this year.

There's a good chance there could be more Houston fans then North Texas fans at thisgame, given the tipoff time.

Go see this game if you can. Houston is on a roll and will be one the best teams to come to The Pit in a while. Plus....after watching dozens of UT games when Tom Penders was coach, you have to go for this reason only. THE MAN IS ORANGE. Really and Seriously...he has orange skin like a pumpkin!

well I suppose selfishly this sucks... I was looking forward to going to this game here in Houston! Thats a great deal for UH though, their fans can go catch thier bowl game and a basketball game in one day. Hopefully we can get a big crowd to the Pit! This should be a tough game for us, but it is a series I hope we continue. Plus it would be huge to knock off a C-USA opponent.

i would guarantee there will be more houston fans than mean green fans. two days before christmas, denton is a ghost town (at least student wise), but man, i'll be there. i used to love watching the runnin' horns! bj tyler, reggie freeman, brany perriman, kris clack (i'm sure i misspelled some names).

I thought most of NT students lived in or near the Metroplex... if this is the case, I see no reason why U of H would have more fans there than us. They are traveling away from their home city during Christmas as well.

For the most part, they have the same attendance issues as we do.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
