I got a cool postcard today from the mean green club showing my current point total. What was really cool was they showed me my ranking as well.

I've always been curious where I stand. (#261...lower than I thought...need to step up)

Thought that was a great idea.

I thought that this was really cool also. In fact, it is a GREAT idea.

The postcard added an extra competitive aspect to things. And, competitions are always fun ;)

P.S.-Was anyone surprised by their ranking ? I was just about where I expected to be....roughly.

No worry. I just received my card today. I would assume that it might take a few days for everyone to receive them.

I think it is a good thing.....I know they want to get people to get their total up. The better the rank the better position you have on the board when it's time for new stadium seat selection.

I came in at 81st.....ehh.....

I knew I should have been buying basketball tickets!!!!! Just tough to make the games......I missed out on a bunch of points.

I'm going to double check with them on my points. I renewed my football season tickets before the April deadline and got an email confirmation that said my priority points for the 2010 football season would be doubled. By my calculations, they didn't add those in. You might want to check yours if you renewed early. These postcards are a good idea.

GMG!

Nevermind.

I'm still not sure what the points mean.

Pecking order for who gets what first. In theory, Priority Points should have come into play for the NCAA 1st round playoff tickets on who got the best seats first. Same goes with things like season tickets for any sports and other special events like bowl games.

I got mine Wednesday. I'm number 88.

And who gets the first choice of seats in the new stadium.

It's not too late.

I was shocked to find myself in the 470s, especially since I have only been donating since the 2008 season.

Our Alumni base should be ashamed.

I think several of us have been mentioning that sort of thing for some time. Lots of people seem to be of the mind-set to "let others do it" or "my little donation couldn't help so why donate at all" or the inane line that "until this or that happens" I won't help.

However, let's be thankful for those that do donate and buy season tickets and let's all do what we can to try to increase those numbers. It is a side benefit of the post card that some are now realizing just how much the support they give means to the program and really how few give. Sort of like the top 2% of earners in the country pay the vast majority of all income taxes, yet those are the ones the gov wants to tax even more! If everyone really did what they could, it would be amazing how much more the program could advance.

So, a big "shout out" and "high five" to those who can and do give to the programs at UNT. Your generous support is VERY much appreciated. May many many more alums and friends join you in your support.

      Mike Mitchell Jr. was out. He's a starter and Minnesota could've really used his shooting. Not as familiar with the other players but they're reserves. This game was a big data point for the Massie over Newell position!

      Awesome win! The only bad part was the commentary from the TV announcers. They confused Newell and Lorient for an extended period of time, stated that Atin Wright originally played at Washington State, and clearly barely knew anything about our program. The play by play announcer gave major 'and boom goes the dynamite' vibes. Some thoughts on the game: - The defense was stellar as we've all come to expect. Delo and Massie were great playing multiple matchups. - Minnesota came out and blitzed our PnRs. We really struggled with the pressure. Eventually we started slipping screens and setting brush screens to counteract it. - Trey Edmonds in the second half forced us to play big. He has a grown man body. Hodge settled on a Lorient/Sissoko combination to match Garcia/Edmonds. - An extended run with a Floyd/Walker/Massie/Lorient/Sissoko lineup including to close the game aside from situational subs. Before the season I would've been shocked that this lineup would close a win on the road against a Big Ten school because of the offense. The spacing was predictably an adventure. Massie wasn't efficient but he kind of made the lineup 'work'. He shows handling, passing, and court awareness in the half court. Feels like he could turn into a secondary ball handler in lineups. - Atin Wright had a meh game by his standards, but still really excited about him this season. He's a bit of a showman and I love it. After getting fouled in transition, he slapped the ball away from the defender and stared at him. On Lorient's massive jam at the end of the game, you can see him standing over Edmonds (who was on the ground). GMG

      Still just a bit, but a sad one because it seems like a ceiling and not a floor.

      I will say that if we take care of business Utah State would like to have a say in that conversation. Lol

      Most uneducated post I read was someone saying we could end up being a quad 3 blemish on the gophers tourney resume. 🤦‍♂️ gotta keep winning games like this. Only way to get past the stigma.
