Old Timer is requesting that if you're at any UNT collegiate bass tournaments....and there are recruits there, and they are wearing their bass fishing letter jackets....try and get some names.

But be discreet about it.

This year we really need to focus on picking up some guys who are versatile. They really need to be able to use live bait & articificial lures.

You guys are all too funny. If I may be serious for a moment, this was UNT's first year in the tournament and I would agree with some that I would have expected our guys to do well since Lake Lewisville is so close to Denton. You'd think they'd have fished there a few times already. I worked on the production crew for the tournament last year and I was honestly surprised by the turnout. There were about 30-40 teams then and that was doubled this year. Collegiate Bass Fishing is club sport, so there is practically no support from the schools financially. The guys that came in from Wisconsin and Washington had to drive their boats in like everyone else. Seems like a lot to pay out of your own pocket. On the plus side, if you get into the tournament, you get a whole lot of swag. Last year, each team got to go on a spree at the Cabella's store.

I am shocked that UNT was in the tournament after all.

I am also shocked that we did sooooo poorly especially having the national freakin championship at our home lake

Even more shocked that this is the most popular thread of the day....

If we didnt have HS bass instructors we could have placed higher in the tourney...

On a more serious note, are the two bass guys who represent UNT provided with funds from the Athletic Dept or Rec sports, very interesting to find out.... Way to go UNT for getting the name out there.

Two weekends before the tournament the DRC clearly stated when and where practice was to be held, but when I drove out to the Marina to put in to go see them practice the lake patrol had the ramps blocked and said practice was closed and that I needed to immediately turn around and leave...now! So the next week, only 5 days prior to the tournament the DRC again plainly stated when and where practice was going to be held(on the Northeast fork of the lake in the channels), but when we drove around by car just south of HWY 380 and pulled up to the location we were notified practice had been moved to the Indoor bass tank at Cabella's. Apparantly it was a bit too cold and windy to get anything accomplished that day on the lake?

      WBB at Oregon (11/12/24)

      The 2-0 ladies deserve a game thread. After taking care of business against two D1 opponents this week, they travel to Eugene to play an Oregon Ducks team in what should be a winnable game. The Lady Ducks are 2-0 after wins over California Baptist and Nevada, but are coming off a season in which they finished last in the Pac-12 at 11-21, 2-16 and lost in the conference tournament to Colorado, 79-30. After SFA transfer Kyla Deck led the way against Alcorn State with 27 points, the ladies used a much more balanced effort yesterday to beat Texas Southern. Four were in double figures: Moore with 20, Wooten with 16, Hardaway with 15, and Lampkin with 11. The ladies play at a fast pace but still are too sloppy with the ball from what I picked up yesterday. This will be a great opportunity for a win against a power conference opponent.

      Yes he did. It would be assisting to not acknowledge it. But notice he also said the result wasn’t satisfactory “the last couple of weeks.” It has been two years.

      Prediction vs Army

      ESPN line is down to Army -3. I wonder if this is based on any knowledge of their QB1 being out for the game?

      You need to listen to that again. Notice that he specified in what ways he was doing a fantastic job--he is a hard worker, etc. But he clearly stated that the defensive performance was unsatisfactory.

      That was not my takeaway from that coach speak answer. What I did takeaway was that he wasn’t considering a change during the season. He also said Caponi was doing a “fantastic” job.
