I hope Coach Jones contacts them and convinces them to stay. Not only for their benefit, but remind them how they are on the verge of greatness, and that the fans need them here.

We've got a nucleus, I know they want Forrest because they know him, but they still have each other. They play at the rec all the time, you have to think they enjoy each other. Seemed to have fun with each other on the road too. I'd hate for them to lose that just because of coach Jones getting his pay day.

Rick V. needs to be real open with these guys, especially if he doesn't have Forrest in mind.

Classy.

But is it not true? The team owes him nothing after he failed to take care of his business and handicapped the season. He's definitely a great player, but if he's threatening to leave then there's no point in rooting for him to stick around.

He's an 18 year old kid, and like most 18 year old kids his emotions will often override his mouth filter.

This

Much like the 38 year olds on this very message board

Exactly. Jones let the team down last year. We wouldn't have bad to bet on next year, we could've had our big year last year. Jones ruined it as much as JJ leaving (may have) ruined next year.

Chris made a mistake. He manned up, admitted it and apologized. No reason to drag the past thru the mud again.

If he wants to man up again and tough this out, make things right he will do it . If he wants to run from his problems then let him run.

Sure hope none of those decisions have anything to do with all those open schollys our former leader has at his new digs. That REALLY would be painful.

I don't think a load of transfers that have to sit out will help LSU this year, and I don't see Coach Jones going "scorched earth" on NT and burning bridges by encouraging our kids to transfer should they approach him.

No disrespect to our kids..... But if JJ's bringing any of them to LSU he's doing it wrong.

With one obvious exception.

CJ, Jordan, and Tony can all 3 play at big time schools. But if Tony leaves, it won't be to go to any other school.

      A plea to our "football-only" fans

      Culturally speaking, UNT and Denton just don’t care about the teams here. If people do care, they get made fun of or looked at as if they have 3 heads. But if someone loathes our teams and is a student, professor, administrator, or citizen of Denton, they get all kinds of attention and praise from the others. It’s a town that loves being anti-establishment and going against the grain. And sports are most definitely at the top of the establishment definition to these people.

      A plea to our "football-only" fans

      I'm not trying to scold anyone here, but what's it gonna take for more people to come out and support our basketball teams? And other sports - softball and women's soccer are always solid, and volleyball just made a promising coaching hire. Our basketball teams are a combined 23-9, which is the best in The American. They're also a combined 17-1 at The Super Pit. But no one is showing up for games. I don't want this to turn into a bitch fest about our marketing. It is probably deserved, but the people on this board likely follow our athletics department on some other social media or email list. Every Monday on Twitter I see a post about what teams are playing at home this week. I know some aren't a big fan of basketball, do you dislike it more than you like the Mean Green? Many are rightfully getting turned off by NIL and the transfer portal. I don't blame you. But the coaching staff for the men are putting together its' school record eighth straight winning season. With Burton, the women won't be far behind. In football, I get it adds up for a family of four - tickets, parking, concessions. But the other five spectator sports offer free parking and normally a hella great ticket deal. Season tickets for basketball start at $99 (like $6.50/home game). If you like soccer, softball, and/or volleyball, an Olympic pass will get you a GA ticket for every home game for $75 (less than $2/ticket!). Again, not trying to call out the board, just want to raise awareness for our other sports, especially if you are feeling sour about football. Come out to The Pit at least one time the remainder of the season! The men and women deserve it. Next women's home game is this Wednesday, 1/15 at 6:30pm against defending conference champ Rice. The men play at home a week after that on the 22nd against Temple - last year's conference runner-up. Or, if you live in the Central Texas or Houston area, look for upcoming games at UTSA next Saturday, 1/18 and at Rice Tuesday, 2/11. GMG!
