Big win...who was the sound engineer for KNTU, the three stooges?

[oldguystudent]

I didn't listen to the whole game, and I don't know the players names very well yet, so a bit hard to follow, but it sounds like UNT's got some good coaching going on...in basketball.

Way to go guys! Can we really call it a quality win? no sarcasm, really curious, are they a div 1 school?

Yes. We used to be in the same conference as them.

Sam Houston beat Texas Tech last year at home. They had a 45 game OOC win streak, 2nd only to Duke. Not an easy place to win.

Off their official site.

Since 2000, Sam Houston State has won more games than any of the 20 NCAA Division I men’s basketball team in the state of Texas except the Texas Longhorns. Texas has won 225 games, followed by Sam Houston 172, Texas Tech 163, UTEP 157, and Texas A&M 142.

As CMJ said, this team hadn't lost to an OOC foe at home since 1998 and has had 20+ win seasons for the last 3 years.
