DENTON, Texas - North Texas women&#39;s basketball coach Mike Petersen has made his first signings as the Mean Green has inked Kiara Davis and Alexis Hyder to Letters of Intent. Davis is a 5-10 guard from North Crowley High School while Hyder is a 5-11 forward out of Austin LBJ High School. <br />

<br />

&quot;We are very happy that both Kiara and Alexis have joined the Mean Green Women&#39;s basketball family,&quot; said Petersen. &quot;They are both outstanding student athletes who will be important contributors to the growth of our program.&quot;<br />

<br />

Hyder, one of the most prolific scorers in the state, averaged over 35 points a game this season in district play and scored a school record 61 points against Lanier. She was named to the Austin American-Statesman&#39;s All-Central Texas girls basketball team as a first-team selection for three straight seasons. <br />

Nice to see he signed Aston's commits. The team was getting short on guards, so the Davis signing looks good. Adds to already a great class. I guess there is going to be some turnover as this puts NT at 16 ships per my count. There were a couple of girls that barely got on the court last year, they may be looking for better opportunities.

Wow, counting the one redshirt; NT will have 8 new players next year. The good thing is that it shouldn't be a rebuilding year ether with some solid returnees. If Godbolt is over her injuries, she should be posed for a great senior season. Stanley came on strong in the second half of the season and should be a real force in her senior year. Braylah Blakely and Ash'Lynne Evans are both super athletic and McCoy became a deadly three point shooter. Desiree Nelson also started most of the season and has a very good overall game.

The exciting thing is that everyone of those players is going to have to be very good and fight for minutes next year. If Peterson is the coach, I think he is; NT should be very strong next year.

Very nice news...good to see that these recruits are still signing with UNT! I am thinking here that the progress started last season under Coach Aston will continue next season under Coach Peterson. Very solid news here, folks....nice!

Alexis Hyder is the real deal in the post! Not sure about CUSA but she can potentially dominate in the Sun Belt based on what I saw in Hot Springs.

Not sure the Belt is not equal to CUSA in WBB. They lost their best team Memphis and maybe UTEP another CUSA top team. Tulane is the best program left and NT was not far behind them last year.

With Hyder's numbers and being a late signee, I was surprised that she was not signed by a big name. She is short for a post player and that probably kept the UT's and A&M's away, but I think she is an excellent recruit.

They sound like great players, but . . . "studs"? :unsure:

In spite of our normal perspective I think that it's an excellent word by two definitions. They will be the upright, load-bearing posts of the framework of the team. They are also two jewels to stud this crown (team).

      Is this what an “offensive genius” looks like?

      The defense was disastrous last night but stop with this "offense did enough to win" crap. A 3 and out and interception in the first 2 drives is not doing enough to win. Were it not for a defensive stop after the onside kick and a Porter 79 yard run, we'd have been down 21-0 and counting. Yes, the defense needs to do more but what high powered offense puts up 7 in a half? This team did the same crap last year. No offense in the first half and then when we put up garbage time points people say "look at the offense." The offense is bordering bad. Tulsa put up 46 on UTSA. Texas State put up 49 and even Rice put up 29. Just to show you where our "high powered offense" stands.

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      Atrocious in "all 3 phases" (that onside kick was a film study discovery by UTSA) but E Morris is just a horrible game manager. Just stupid decisions on multiple levels. I wish we weren't in the bowl hunt so Caponi could be fired if at least as a symbolic action to show the rest of the staff (minus Cobbs) they need to step it up a bunch. To the decision making, it's all been said. The timeout at 2nd and 16 with 49 seconds to go when most offenses would just let the clock run out to close the half, not taking reasonable field goal attempts early on, poor playcalling (honestly surprised a screen didn't get intercepted), these things fall on Eric Morris. Just garbage level game management. It's like he's playing a video game where there's no real consequences. Time of possession was about 39 to 21 in UTSA's favor. I know Porter had huge runs but UTSA also had huge plays. Why is it that others are capable of sustaining drives and eating clock but our "elite" offense can't do so? Defenses aside, you'd think our supposed top notch offense could be more consistent. I know our defense needs to make stops more consistently but anybody please tell me why our offense isn't capable of having some 6 or 7 minute scoring drives? Morris needs to relax on the pace of game. Just idiotic at this point.
