Had such an awesome day today with family and friends. I love seeing so many of our past players and alumni gather in one location one more time for the Glory Of UNT.

So proud of this team, coaches and the seniors who turned this thing around.

So cool to see Boomer in action today in the freaking historic Cotton Bowl. Made me very proud to have been a part of that tradition.

And I was so proud of the turnout. There were so many of you I wanted to say hey to and didnt get the chance. Wow, were there a lot of folks I've never seen before? And in regards to that I finally realized, around the final 3 minutes of the game the sign I wished I had made. Something along the lines of...

"We'll See All Of You In Apogee Next September!"

We will enjoy this day for a long time.

It's All Green And All Good!

Let's be honest, if those people actually ever stepped foot in Apogee we'd be near a sellout. But, in typical NT fashion, they'll come out of their holes again next bowl game.

Loved the family pic of one of our very best fans. I'm sorry I didn't get to say more than Hi at the game but I hope that there will be more occasions to enjoy the winning and comraderie. And to drex...I'm sorry that I forgot to show you the battle flag stadium blanket that my wife made for me. What a grand and glorious day!

Great to have had a "hi" from ya' yesterday, too, Jack! Hope you heard me say "hi" back! (Are we really too old for such conversation as this)? :rolleyes::)

Yes, Jack, I agree..............what a grand and glorious day!

Game was awesome…hopefully I convinced my nephew to join the Mean Green and not that college in Austin. It was his first game to see the Mean Green. I'll be at that game against the Longhorns on 8.30.14 and if we win, he has to commit to North Texas.

      Dept. of Education says Title IX applies to payments to athletes (NIL)

      Build your team

      I’ll take your starting 5 and reserves with two changes. Give me Umoja Gibson in place of Woolridge and JJ Murray over Reese* *My son would kill me for taking Reese out (he is his all-time favorite Mean Green player) but I think I have enough scoring and I can’t pass up JJ’s ability to take on the opposing team’s best scorer.

      Dept. of Education says Title IX applies to payments to athletes (NIL)

      Let’s be honest Title 9 is the dumbest ruling ever and always has been. I am all for women’s sports, I am all for schools offering scholarships for those sports if they choose to. Requiring every school to have an equal number of scholarships when football takes 85 is so beyond crazy, and this is crazier. Something meant to benefit female athletes has clearly been detrimental for men’s sports. We are not the only school who doesn’t have men’s soccer or baseball because of it, although someone has posted here before that’s not what’s stopping a baseball program from starting. We have 100x a chance of placing a player in the pros (or USMNT) in soccer and baseball yet we don’t have those programs. Truly makes no sense.

      A plea to our "football-only" fans

      😂 All those schools you mentioned have significantly more football accomplishments than UNT and frequent (sometimes deep) entries into NCAA tournament. It is just a bad comparison. You can expect to microwave fan support on a level with those schools from one NIT title which at best (perception wise) makes you no better than 30-20th basketball team that year with your stars and coach leaving the team before the next season. I make 4 out of 6 Saturday Football games a season. I like being outside in good weather. I don’t live in Denton and the last thing I want to do after work is drive for an hour in rush hour traffic to get to a volleyball or basketball game. I suspect the average alumni that doesn’t live in Denton or border city feels the same way. I made a home game the year they won the NIT and preceding season. The SuperPit needs work, concessions food wasn’t good with long lines to get it. I guarantee the fan experiences at the home basketball arenas of the teams you mentioned aren’t like that.

      Best UNT BBall team ever?

      I think we’re a good team that’s trending up. An at large bid is unlikely…we’d have to win all/most of our games, strong showing in the Conference Tourney, and have no surprise teams taking any auto bids. NIT is still a GREAT tournament. It doesn’t get the media hype, but it’s good basketball.
