At least a good game today by the ladies winning 66-58 over UAB. Good tight rotation by Petersen today, with 6 players getting most of the minutes.

Is this the Danny manning who played for the mavericks?

Sounds like it's getting out of hand. Our guys seem to be turning it over a bit too much and not hustling on defense. We still got this though.

You a betting man? If we don't pull things together ASAP it's going to get way out of hand SFA style. Already 3 and 2 fouls on our bigs, not looking good.

Well since someone gave me a negative I went ahead and looked it up myself. Maybe that person needs to do some research themselves. He is the same Danny Manning that played for the mavericks.

Well it is getting of hand. Hard to judge since I cannot see the game. Just missing shots and turning over the ball.

Yup. Sounds like a lot of turnovers and disarray on both sides of the court. just can't see it with my eyes to confirm. Down 47-31 at the half.

This is why I wish we had a better way to view games. Nothing can be told over the radio; other then the fact that we are really struggling.

Yeah, they seemed to play very well today.

That article by Vito about Vaughns reminded me how it's going to be rough next year without him and Alzee. No one behind CJ to run the point except maybe TJ, but he will be a senior too. Really need a point guard with that last scholly IMO.

Also scary to think what this team will be like after next year without CJ and Jordan in particular. They have 23 of our 31 points right now.

That is why we need to win this year and next. Next season is when I could see Benford gone but at the end. Too many seniors to change it up again. We need to start winning now and it keep it up next season.

He and Carrington Ward (our other JUCO signee) are both shooting guards. Never seen either play, just going off the evaluations and stats.

Ward is listed at 6'2" and Harris is listed at 6'3", so they'll likely be touted as "combo guards." Ward averages almost 4 assists a game for San Jac but Harris only averaged 1.8 last year and is sitting out this year so he'll be a sophomore next year. Ward could probably be a backup for Jones next year, but he's a shooting guard.

I want NT to do well, but I also want a coaching change if things don't turnaround this year. Games like today, are not going to help Benford hang on.

But games like the one played in the cotton bowl on 1/1/14 and at Apogee on Halloween are.

At least the guys are not quitting. I like to see (listen to) that. Still out of reach but not quitting is a step forward I suppose... Not letting it get to out of hand at the end maybe...

You're probably correct there buddy. However, if say we only win 2 or 3 more games this season it's hard to imagine the heat not getting really bad for RV to fire Benford.

      Is the Portal out of control?

      Yep. The system can’t have it both ways. Either pay the kids a salary and let them pay for their schooling or stick with the scholarship system. Having hardworking students pay an “athletics fee” to support these programs while these athletes are getting a salary on top of all the benefits of their scholarship is system set up to fail.

      Is the Portal out of control?

      Because it is a bullshit system. I don’t need some kid running a podcast that gives him the attitude that he is all knowing to tell me that his opinion on the system is better than mine. It is what it is. I don’t like it. I see kids chasing dollars hoping to secure their future and probably forgoing their education. Do you really think Chandler Morris is worth the reported $1 million dollars Okie St is throwing at him? Do you think Ohio State’s $200 million payroll provided a solid return? It is not a sustainable system and is not being administered as intended. These collectives are paying kids a salary to just be on the team. It has nothing to do with marketing their likeness, their name or their image. It has turned our program into nothing more than a prep program for the P4 teams. We, UNT, spend time and money developing kids for what? For them to move along to the highest bidder and we get $0 in return. It is not a sustainable system. Why do “G5” donors want to throw money at these kids that have zero loyalty to us? What is the return? Hopefully 9 or 10 wins, a conference title and some BS bowl game only to watch our best players walk prior to the bowl game/playoffs? Sorry but the dialogue and “talking points” haven’t changed. It is nothing more than a game of greed. This is college sports with misplaced priorities that are ruining the game, in my humble opinion. That satisfy you?

      Bowl Tailgating

      If it helps any, this is where our group has been tailgating for years whenever we played SMU. Never had one problem with setting up the BBQ grill, TV, etc.
