Much like ULL…UNO struggled out of the gate, losing their first four games…all four though lacked the services of star wing Kyndall Dykes. Since Dykes returned to the Privateers have rattled off four of six...though their loss two nights ago to ULM is one I’m sure they’d love to have back. Joining Dykes by chucking up as many shot as they can from 20’9” out will be senior T.J. Worley and junior Darrian McKinstry. Tyrna is the only offensive threat in the frontcourt…but the troika of Hart, Mpondo and Ikeakor give coach Joe Pasternak plenty of interior presence and rebounding.

I was a lot more concerned about this game a few nights ago…but having seen UNO lay out against ULM the other night…a very bad ULM team…I’m feeling considerably more confident in a UNT victory.

Though we broke our streak against UNO last year, it's gonna take awhile before I'm ever confident playing the Privateers. I'm hoping for the win, but by no means expecting it.

If Triston Thompson can stay hot, I feel like we can win any game in the belt. We have very balanced contributions from a variety of players game in and game out, both from the bench and starters. All we need is one guard, presumably Triston, to put up big numbers with the other players making their contributions, however small, and we will win.

Yeah, but won't it be nice to not have to worry about McCalebb for once. He was North Texas kryptonite.

Seemed like he was there for 7 years. :lol:

I know. It was a glorious day when he and Courtney Lee exausted their eligibility. Great players (that were fun to watch from a fan's perspective), but I was happy to see them move on down the road.

Good analysis of our club. I would add, though, that the embarrassment to ULM should probably worry you a bit more than it is. Since Dykes' return, performances like ULM are the exception and not the rule. We have actually played pretty good ball. Our only other loss was at home against Ole Miss in a game that was up for grabs in the final six minutes. They made the plays down the stretch and beat us in the end when it counted, but we played a good ball game. Coming off that admittedly terrible performance on Friday night I expect our team to play pretty well at home. The Mean Green are certainly the favorites tonight, but I think they'll have to play well to get the win. I don't anticipate UNO gift-wrapping another game immediately following the ULM loss.

And regarding Bo...he did have some incredible games against UNT but you guys aren't the only ones happy to see him overseas!

Enjoy the game. If any of you end up needing it, our audio is free at wgso.com. Our play-by-play guy is a real treat to listen to.

Tipoff in about 15 minutes. I'll probably miss the first scoring update, but I'll be back for the 2nd more than likely.

I can handle the scoring update duties for you until you get back..

Its like watching superman fall, the way you have been missing the scoring updates. I'll try to pick up the pieces. :D

I guess there is no video tonight. Dang.

Ya, same here. I think they will probably get it going since it is listed in the program... probably just a feed problem.
