...and it could have been worse. Complete domination from the soccer team today. Obviously, the competition was weak, but we took full advantage.

We play SMU this Friday at 7pm. If you can make it out, please come, it is going to be crazy.

Grr, I can't believe I missed the game today! I went out of my way to make sure I had the schedule for soccer and volleyball and I still failed lol. I will definitely be there Friday though!

Unfortunately, these sort of games don't do much get get the team ready for the season. Sure, a few players get to see some playing time that might not have, and you can say that is a good thing, but if UNT is to maintain it's history of challenging for the conference crown and getting to the NCAA's, then these sort of games need to be a thing of the past. Interesting to me that Coach Hedlund scheduled these "soft" games, but I don't know what challenges he had with the schedule this year. Yes, fun was had by all on the UNT side, but I doubt much was accomplished and I see these "pre-conference" games as a means to prepare the team for the season ahead. Not as a "let's see how many goals we can score against these undermanned and far less capable" teams.

Sorry, it's time (in my opinion) to play teams that are as good or even ranked higher than the Mean Green in the "pre-season" games. Fun, indeed, but "fun" might not prepare the team for the conference schedule ahead.

BUT, this soccer guy loves any UNT win and it was a win, indeed. I am looking fir good things from the team this season...and I think we'll see them compete for the conference crown again this season. GO UNT...go ladies!

      We picked the wrong quarterback

      When I saw the thread, I assumed it was “We should have started Drew all season.” I was mistaken. The OP is an awful take on yesterday’s game.

      Seth Littrell

      Where exactly is it a bad take? Are we not a mirrored program in comparison to when Littrell oversaw it? Littrell at least got us to multitude of conf champ games? Where is the improvement or regression? It's one and the same, except we are slightly less competitive. Is it not one of the sole jobs of the athletic director to fundraise his tail off and implement those funds into athletics? Where are the numbers that dictate improvement in funding? Where are the new facilities? What is the direction... Look, if it's a bad take please point to where I am misleading myself and I will reexamine...

      Dave Fleming New Volleyball Coach

      He was an assistant at UCLA under a Hall of Fame coach before his 20 years in Mesa. He was very successful at Colorado Mesa. 23-6 in 2024, 24-5 in 2023, and many other 20-win seasons... https://cmumavericks.com/alltime.aspx?path=wvball

      We picked the wrong quarterback

      If you're a G5 school and you have a high quality quarterback who has the potential to hit the portal and you believe you'll go bowling you have to start getting your back up reps during the season. And please don't come back with some BS about you don't want to impact your starting quarterbacks statistics or make him feel unappreciated by putting a backup in. Not blaming the kids who hit the portal for taking care of themselves but coaches need to start focusing their efforts on their program. I like one story they mentioned during the bowl game when they talked to Texas state's coach and he commented that his number one motivation was a picture of his family on his desk and that he was going to take care of them and that's why he could make the choices he does at times. So again for all those who talk about players having the right to do what's best for them and their families more coaches need to start protecting what is good for them and their families and make changes when needed.
