You know, the Mean Green went on quite a streak in 2001 after losing their first conference game of the season...

It's possible. Just need to execute.

i like the way you think...

Say what you will about this team, but they are well coached. Dan McCarney & Co. know what they are doing but its up the players to execute. I was not at the game on Saturday but these are things that I do know:

1) We out gained Troy

2) We won the time of possession battle

3) We did not turn the ball over and won that battle

4) We did not finish drives and missed three field goals

5) We did not execute on fourth down (2-14)

We can complain all day about play calling, but the players need to execute on key plays. Canales knows his players strengths and also understands their limitations. Fact of the matter is, this offense will go as far as Derek Thompson takes them. I have faith that he can play at high level as evidenced by his performance at KSU. He just needs to find consistency.

This team is well coached and can win any game left on the schedule if they can execute on key downs, including special teams. Keep the faith people. We are on the right track.

will be here soon.

      Softball vs. UAB (4/17 & 4/18/25)

      Mother Nature disrupts another softball series. With Easter on Sunday, and bad weather expected Saturday, the ladies will play one game tomorrow and a doubleheader Friday starting at 3 PM. Tight race in The American as we enter the last three conference series. UNT needs two wins this series to match their win total from last year. I maintain getting a top two seed is the highest priority but we are right there with #1 FAU and hold the tiebreaker, the only team in the conference to do so. Other Series This Weekend FAU @ East Carolina Memphis @ South Florida UTSA @ Charlotte Wichita State @ Tulsa I don't foresee South Florida or Charlotte losing this weekend, so a sweep at home against UAB is almost necessary.

      Thought I'd share some good news in this thread. Taller than Lampkin and NCAA Tournament experience.

      We’re not alone

      I read somewhere before the teams were even seeded that Florida, Auburn, Duke, and Houston were a step above every other team. There was some metric/stat they showed to back up the statement. So, yes, I think those teams were accurately seeded…though TT almost had something to say about it.

      WBB: Transfer Portal

      https://dentonrc.com/sports/colleges/mean_green/unt-womens-basketball-team-looking-at-nearly-complete-rebuild-after-players-head-to-portal/article_cf093cbf-6ff4-44de-a70d-4f4892172cb2.html Brett Vito is reporting in his article that Hardaway, Deck, Wooten, McGrew, and Duncan are all in the portal. He reported also that Johnson left towards the end of the season. I knew I didn't see her any longer, but I thought maybe injuries, but it turns out she left like Abou did a few years back. Brackens went into the portal and has since landed at Tarleton State. The only people he says that are coming back are Tac, who was injured all season, Chania Price, and Talley.
