From Denton Record Chronicle UNT notes: "UNT has changed its lineup along its defensive front on nearly a weekly basis throughout the season and made another switch for its game against FAU. "

No wonder the defense cannot focus and gel, nobody knows if they are going to be playing or who they will be playing with.

Every week? Did not know that.

Yes actually, it's not like they really want to play Gilmore at DT. This week there were two more D-linemen who were inactive for the game. The list of injured D-linemen is long.

I guess I could ask who is on that list, but instead, I'll ask if anyone thinks it's unusual that a D1 college football program has a D-line that sustains this many injuries. If so, why?

I don't think you need to limit your question to whether its unusual to just the D-line....there seems to be a lot unusual to this team this year.

Lack of off season conditioning has something to do with it in my opinion. I hope this is one of many areas that Dodge will recognize and address over the coming nine months. If he doesn't, it may not matter much to him.

      Women’s Hoops Begins AAC Tournament Monday Night Against ECU

      DENTON, Texas — The UNT women’s basketball team will kick off its postseason run against East Carolina Monday night in the quarterfinals at the American Athletic Conference Championship. The second-seeded Mean Green and No. 7 Pirates will meet for the second time this season with tip-off set for 6 p.m. CT at Dickies Arena. The teams have met twice in the last two seasons with both contests going into multiple overtimes and resulting in UNT victories. North Texas won in Denton, 93-91, in four overtimes on Feb. 27, 2024, in what was the longest game in program history. This season, the Mean Green took a return trip to Greenville where they used a second-half comeback to send the game into overtime. Jaaucklyn Moore’s game-tying 3-pointer in the first overtime eventually led to a 73-71 victory after Jaelyn Talley made a go-ahead layup in double overtime. The Mean Green will look to avenge last season’s early exit at the conference tournament when they fell to Rice, 61-59, in the quarterfinals. For the second straight year, UNT enters as the No. 2 seed following a 23-7 regular season. This year’s team put together a 15-3 mark in league play, marking the most conference wins in program history. East Carolina will play for a second straight day after defeating No. 10 Memphis, 64-45, Sunday afternoon. First Team All-AAC selection Amiya Joyner led the Pirates with 21 points and 11 rebounds. Monday’s game will be streamed on ESPN+ and can be heard on the Varsity Network App with Zac Babb on the call. WHAT 2 WATCH 4 • UNT will begin its postseason against East Carolina on Monday night in the quarterfinals of the AAC Championship. • UNT's 23 wins this season is tied for the most in program history with last season's squad. • North Texas earned the No. 2 seed and a double bye to the quarterfinals at the AAC Tournament for a second consecutive season. • Tommisha Lampkin, Desiree Wooten and Aniyah Johnson represented UNT on the conference's postseason awards. POSTSEASON AWARDS • Tommisha Lampkin became the first UNT player to earn First Team all-conference honors since Terriell Bradley in 2017-18. • Lampkin was a unanimous selection to the All-AAC First Team by the league's coaches after leading the conference in double doubles, rebounding and FG%. She was the lone player in the conference to average a double double on the season. • Desiree Wooten earned the first all-conference honors of her career being named to the All-AAC Second Team and the All-AAC Defensive Team. The sophomore guard averaged 11.3 points per game, while ranking No. 3 in The American with 50 steals. • Aniyah Johnson joined Wooten on the league's All-Defensive Team in her senior year. She collected 176 rebounds on the season and was fourth in the AAC with 24 blocks during conference play. A WIN WOULD... • Make UNT 24-7 on the year, setting a program record for wins in a season • Advance the Mean Green to the semifinals of the AAC Championship

      UNT picked as top March Madness Cinderella candidate

      Wright has now proven he can score and carry the team when his shot is off (got to the line a ton vs Temple & second half numbers the last two games) but we will need to have BLo and Mou put up double doubles and then rest of the supporters drain keys shoots when open.

      Thinking about the Super Pit....

      It sucks but I doubt we'll ever be able to make significant changes that reduces seating capacity. The university will never allow it due to graduations. But a couple things we can address: - Like others have said, the lighting can look bad on TV. Just way too dark and drab. It might be due to where the cameras are stationed because I don't think its nearly as bad in person. - I'd love if we got rid of the old press seats at midcourt. It looks so odd and makes it seem like no one is there since people are behind the green partition.

      Thinking about the Super Pit....

      Don’t waste money on curtains. Just chain off the stairs with a sign saying “Section Closed”. There are ushers at every entrance. If fans go past the chains, they can instruct them to sit in the lower section. I’ve had season tickets for years and most games the upper deck is empty. When we do play a “big game”, there will be 200+ people sitting up there on both sides. The problem is that there are 4x’s that in empty seats in the lower bowl. It would look and sound better if the fans were together in the lower bowl.

      I see no reason to assume we will even make the NIT field if we lose in Fort Worth.
