Despite the disappointment, very proud of the way you represented in the tourney.
Good luck to WKU and even LA Tech.

RE: #13 North Texas vs. #5 Villanova
Well, we ran into a buzz saw. But I can't say enough about what this run meant to North Texas. Something I definitely won't forget. Hopefully, we can 1) build off of this momentum. and 2) hang on to our HC.

Keep her heads up UNT faithful. You're were playing where the rest of us wished we could be at. Congrats on your season and 1st Round win.

As a current Denton resident I was pulling for the mean green. Tough draw against Villanova but way to represent our state winning last round. UNT has great facilities I pass by the big practice facility all the time hard to miss it MEAN GREEN on 35w and truly an up and coming school they’ll be back.

I think you're minimizing our Purdue win. This Villanova team (their run in the 1st half) would have destroyed anybody in the nation.
Not necessarily. During the game, I kept rhetorically screaming at UNT on my TV, "Why are you giving up the 3? Why are you giving up the 3?"......if you must give up something every trip down, for goodness sake give them the TWO-pointer, and not the three-pointer. I think this is where McCasland got seriously out-coached. (Which is understandable, considering who he was coaching against.) That said, there just might not have been anything UNT could have done.
I did ask myself more than once, where was this UNT defense when you played LA Tech?
Great season nonetheless, UNT. I still tip my hat to the Mean Green. You guys still represented CUSA well.

Give them the inside, and reduce their scoring by a third. They're not going to miss.
EXACTLY. Post of the Day, right there.
