    Honored to finish second in this year's APSE contest for beat writing in Division D. There are so many great writers from across the country in the top 10 this year, like there are every year.

    North Texas will head to Oklahoma State for the quarterfinals of the NIT due to a scheduling conflict with a faculty lunch and a dance competition at the Super PIt. UNT officials say they explored alternatives, but were unable to find a solution.

    Grant McCasland on the reports he's headed to Texas Tech. "I just know that there are a lot of people recruiting our guys, too. It doesn’t mean that they're leaving. We have a special thing going here. I’m thankful to be a part of it."

    In case you're wondering, North Texas would REALLY appreciate it if people showed up to next week's Friday night game against South Florida that will be shown on ESPN2. Here's the list of promotions, and it doesn't include halftime fireworks.

    Official attendance for tonight's UNT-SMU game is 29,519. That is a program record, breaking the old mark set in the Mean Green's win over Baylor in 2003 at Fouts Field.

    North Texas picked up two votes in the AP Top 25 poll. The Mean Green haven't been ranked in the poll since 1959 and are closing in on breaking the streak.

    DRC: Wide receiver Keegan Brewer has left the UNT football program and accepted a job as a firefighter in Frisco. Brewer made the play of the year for the Mean Green returning a punt 90 yards for a TD after faking a fair catch in a win over Arkansas:

    All reserved seats are sold and we have VERY limited GA seating available. We WILL have a sellout so if you plan to come you need to buy tickets asap! Good day to be Mean Green! Encourage orange lot pre-purchase for parking as well while supplies last. #SellOutDATCU #GMG
