Here's more Sports Writer stupidity. Look at ESPNs Bracketology on their front page it talks about how great its doing. Well Hofstra and Akron are both still on there with losses to UALR and Charlotte. Charlotte is on there as well, even after its UNT loss, but guess which teams aren't on there at all. Thats right UALR and UNT. So the losers stay on there and the winners don't get a mention... great job there ESPN.

Here's more Sports Writer stupidity.  Look at ESPNs Bracketology on their front page it talks about how great its doing.  Well Hofstra and Akron are both still on there with losses to UALR and Charlotte.  Charlotte is on there as well, even after its UNT loss, but guess which teams aren't on there at all.  Thats right UALR and UNT.  So the losers stay on there and the winners don't get a mention... great job there ESPN.

I really think it will stay this way until the SBC teams consistently wins OOC games, not one here or one there. And, you can't blame them b/c the Sunbelt can be very inconsistant. They want to see a pattern of wins before they mention us. On the otherhand, it is really skewed reporting like you point out.

With excellent teams like Western Kentucky, South Alabama, UALR, possibly Troy and Denver, and now possibly UNT, the SBC is looking to be a very competitive conference with very talented players. Hopefully these top SBC teams will lay the hammer to other conferences this season. Hopefully, we'll add UTA, Rice, and Tulsa to the Charlotte list.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      Unless you only care about bigger donors and have contracts that get extended for staying in budget, like RV had. The sad thing about attendance is that we even have an issue with it. A school this big with this large of an alumni base, in a giant metro area and we can’t sell out the 31k seat football stadium even one time EVER and the 10k seat Super Pit hasn’t seen a crowd of close to capacity in decades. But as someone said, it’s not like the Murchison Center is ever filled to capacity or the Art Department can’t keeP people from seeing an art exhibit or dance performance because too many people are attending. Literally, nobody cares about ANYTHING the university sponsors in any decent number. It’s like the complete 180 degree opposite of A&M, where the brain washing is so strong that these people only wear maroon and khaki and drive maroon cars.

      AAC Tourney Prediction

      The NIT isn't anything close to being the HOD Bowl. I don't think people realize how tough it even is to get into the NIT. There are over 350 D1 schools. You basically have to be in the top quarter to make it into either tournmnent. There are like 40 Bowl games...over 60% the schools that play DI football make one. Making the NIT is like...making the Gator Bowl or something. If somehow we ended up in the Gator Bowl that'd be the biggest deal the football team had ever accomplished.

      Miss Cherie Spencer

      As they say in the business, "We got a Steal"! Young lady looks like a potential WNBA pick. Hope all goes well for her at UNT first. I think her HS is in a lower classification because her game is more advanced than her competition (most games). Just finished watching a game against Benton, LA on Feb. 20, 2025. (NFHS Network) Looked to have scored about 30. Hope it doesn't hurt her average too much. #2 Ranked 2025 recruit in the state. https://allstatesugarbowl.org/news/2025/2/5/spencer-AOM.aspx https://www.lgrbasketball.com/2025-rankings Go Mean Green

      Women’s Hoops Begins AAC Tournament Monday Night Against ECU

      Good win, but if I were Burton, I would have us in the gym tonight shooting free throws until our arms fell off. Should have beat them by 20.

      AAC Tourney Prediction

      I wouldn't be surprised if one of those 5-8 teams makes a run. UNT has been hot and cold, but they just had a good look at Temple, so they should have a good game plan going into their first game assuming its against Temple. The possible match up between UAB/UNT could almost be a toss up, UAB plays later Thursday night and that could be important. The program need to be in the best tournament available to them. Because this team will most likely need to do some major recruiting again this off season.
