https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nc...434224002/

so what's wrong with what higgins said? you want your team to play the best team to help your cause, not some other teams.

Huggins cancelled the long-time series with Marshall and said he would only play them in Morgantown. You don't think Marshall's players and coaches should be fired up about that?

Look, I know you're just a UNT grad, but even you should be inspired by that if it was directed at your school. If not, don't complain about P5 school's only wanting to play G5's at home.

Hmmm you mean like how La Tech won't play a certain team 30 mins away from them? A bit ironic don't you think

this is what i don't get...is this a true statement? i don't know...but one team can't complain about other schools not playing them then not play other schools that are regional rivals to them...

yes, i am a lowly north texas grad...know nothing about the amazing sport of college basketball like others, but higgins said nothing wrong. heaven forbid a school doesn't want to play north texas...fine, so be it...my school will play someone else

Oh puleeze. Quit being silly. None of us here are p5 schools. No way it's the same. Besides, Louisiana has a hell of a lot more schools that we have to play each year than the state of West Virginia does. In men's BB LA Tech played ULL this year in state. Last year, we played 4 schools in state, including Grambling, ULL, SLU and LSU Shreveport. This year, the Lady Techsters played ULM, McNeese, Grambling and LSUA in state. So far this spring, our baseball team has already played Grambling, ULM (Tech won, 7-0), and 2 games against NSU in state. And we play NSU again on 3/20, and ULM again on 3/21. The football team has been rotating Grambling, Southern University, and NSU almost every year on our schedule for the past decade, plus we played ULL in 2014 & 2015 (and won both) and play LSU in 2018. In short, playing all these Louisiana schools is enough to make my head spin.

Now, quit whining.

Scheduling a game takes two schools to cooperate. I doubt Mclelland and Holtz care about any of this petty stuff. They just aren't on the schedule.

You're a UNT fan. You don't even have a baseball team.

I'll tell you & UNT to go get a frickin baseball team before you worry about telling LA Tech who to play, dumarse.

Calling BS on that. Why doesn't UNT play Texas State every year? Or Sam Houston State? Or Texas Southern, Stephen F Austin or Prairie View? Fact is, you no longer play 'em because it's not in your best interest. And you also have the added benefit of having three of your conference mates (Rice, UTSA & UTEP) being located in Texas.

Why doesn't UNT play Texas State?

Does La Tech have to play all of those in state Louisiana schools because of state budget problems? Seriously question, not meant to diss anyone. Seems that the State of La had some budget cutbacks recently.
