Sorry talking about the Tennis Team.

I am assuming they are hosting the tournament as 4-5 other schools have it on their schedule, even though the UNT site still does not have a roster nor schedule up yet dry.gif .

If there are any tennis fans around can you give a recap of the action next weekend, curious to see the new coach in action.

Also has anyone seen or heard anything from practices.

I know UALR will be very good this year with many returners and 2 new Freshman who look very good, saw them play last weekend at a tournament in Little Rock.

There is actually an article on the official site about the tournament this weekend. However, there is no information about the team, new players, etc. It would seem to me that a lot more could have been done to promote a team with probably the most high profile non-revenue sport coach hire in decades and a brand new facility.

I'm sure UNT Athletics Marketing will get right on that. What? No Marketing? ph34r.gif

yeah saw they posted it today, the day before it starts. Great Job marketing.

Also no roster yet, no schedule. at least we have 2 very good coaches.

Of course it is still not on the events calendar on the front page. mad.gif

Did anyone by chance make it out or does anyone still follow the team locally? I saw they only had 5 players playing, looks like Ina and Sara Giles are missing, injuries or other?

Guess not to bad of showing, new girl looks good judging by results.

Off they would interview the Asst. and not the Head Coach.

Anyone???

There were only 5 players playing bec. Sara Giles is injured. Something with her leg? As for Ina... I heard she failed classes. She isn't even on the team anymore?? They will have a great team when everyone is able to play.

Thanks, I think I saw somewhere Sara has bad shin splints or similar. Hopefully the coach can pick up a couple of players at the semester. The team is good but they need a couple top line players. At least there are 2 very good coaches to help out.

Too bad about Ina, she could have really helped.

      What could have been

      Was not aware of Corky Nelson's interest and NTSU hiring Tyler instead. Good grief what a stupid decision or perhaps intentional sabotage. Despite Corky's demons, he could recruit in Texas and his potential to win against a big-time opponent was very real. I was a student at UNT when Dennis Parker was hired & his name is mostly what I heard on campus from other students during the search process. Dennis Parker was a H.S. coach from Marshall, TX as I recall. I don't remember Nick Saban being mentioned back then nor reading his name in the NT Daily. Parker could recruit Texas for sure and NT didn't want to pay a real coach's salary back then. But Nick Saban. Dang.

      On a scale of 1 to 10...How would you rate this season so far?

      Yes. 6. A 6 to me implies at least with our standards that we’re good but we’re not there yet. Nothing wrong with that (yet)

      Texas State to PAC 12

      If you're asking Jared to be forward thinking, good luck. I haven't seen anything he has done that says forward thinking. It takes a real leader/general to take a program and fanbase to higher ground. Right now we have milk toast.

      We have the following losses and people are saying this is a "6"?!?!? I agree that yesterday's game was a total let down, but the overall season is NOT a failure. 7pts McNeese - Tourney bound 4pts Ut St - Tourney bubble 5pts HPoint - Tourney bound 4pts Memphis - Tourney bound, top 20 team 4pts UTSA - BAD LOSS 3pts UAB - Tourney bound if they win today 5pts Temple - BAD LOSS 10pts UAB - Tourney bound if they win today

      Money, It Just Means More

      The AAC attracts good players, but then loses them all to the power conferences. I really liked our team this year, but no one wanted to play us in the non-con and by the time we made it to conference games, teams had already dropped to the 100-300 range in net rankings. If UNT was at the middle or bottom of a power conference, they would have racked up so many quad 1 wins. But we don't have the money those teams have and had only 3 opportunities with only Memphis in our conference. Penny, Hagerty, and Dainja say AAC teams are being disrespected and that there are good teams and players in our conference. I think they are right, but when you lose 90% of your shooting every year, if given a shot at a good non-conference schedule, how can you get your team ready to compete that quickly? Someone online said that the SEC should change their slogan to the title of this post. Do you think the portal, nil, and net rankings will make it impossible for UNT to get an at large bid in the AAC?
