UAB -2 over North Texas *** Tough game for me because I want to be neutral as possible . NT swept the reg season two games but lost in the Conf USA semifinals to UAB. Going over the box scores of the 3 times they played is tough In one game that NT won at UAB Walker dnp. Nt's big man probably won't play tonight and he was an intergrel part of 2 of those games. But NT's back up center Sissoko is playing better then Ousmane the missing player. These two teams landed opposite in the NIT and could only meet in the finals. Perry NT's pt gd was named the Conf USA POY. But Jelly Bean Walker was the pre-season POY. Both are two of the most unheard of pt gds in the country. NT is coming off a nice win over Big 10 Wisconsin .Walker has said he is upset that Perry beat him out. I think North Texas is the better defensive team but UAB is an experienced team and can hit those off bds . Walker and Perry are even but walker is in a little slump scoring. I think UAB with the Brewer brothers and Buffin inside has seen the NT pressure and made a few adjustments. But Nt's has done the same. Comparing their games vs other teams in conf is hard. I have Plus 's and positives every where. Maybe the one that stands out is what these guys did vs FAU who is in the final 4, UAB did beat FAU once 86-77 and North Texas did lose both times to them 66-62 and 50-46. Bur NT defense held FAU's offense which avgs almost 80 pts a game to 62 and 50 points Like Kennedy the coach said yesterday " we both know each other and both know what were going to do". Perry has 83 points in the NIT's where Jelly Bean Walker is 18-62 in 3 games. But he still avgs 22 pts a game. I think everyone knows Grant the North Texas coach is going to Texas Tech after the game win or lose. Is that a factor tonight. Who knows I hate going against my Mean Green but think Perry and Walker are two of the best pt gds in the country and missing Ousmane hasn't hurt them but can his replacement continue to excel as he has. I will think Jelly Bean Walker is playing with a chip on his shoulder like he has publicly said, and the Blazers edge out my Mean Green by a few points. Played a teaser so I can still cheer for NT but its hard trying to be objective in your team . There are 6 teams left playing and 3 of those are Conf USA teams I love FAU and have them in the finals and will hedge the play but they have to get by San D St 1st. UAB wins this low scoring game by 2 -4 pts Jelly Bean Walker who will be hounded by Huntsberry all game gets a chance to outplay Perry . And can North Texas knowing there coach is leaving play without that distraction in the back of there heads. Its funny the two best players tonight in the gym are under 5'9 UAB's coach was at Miss for years. Looking for a great game and watching Perry and Walker will be awesome. Still on cloud 9 and regardless of the outcome tonight might be a little poorer but down deep happy for my school good luck everybody thank you all for the nice comments Go mean Green oops go UAB
not sure If I posted this already if so my bad sorry

wow Raider I feel some animosity in your post Lets be nice and respectful I agree the NIT is the junior prom compared to the senior prom but its a dance better then staying home with no date. I'm not saying North Texas is No 1 but they did what they had to do. I thought UAB seeing North Texas for the 4th time and being more experienced would have an advantage but after watching about 10 minutes in the 1st half you could see that North Texas defense was doubling Jelly Bean and he wasn't a factor Plus he was out of control on a few drives to the basket. That made a live betting play which was steep -6 North Texas to win. They won by 7 so was very lucky since UAB had the ball with 10 seconds left but missed there shot and NT rebounded and won the game and the cover.. NT won the NIT .. My poop is green but with a George Washington bill .. Perry deserved to be the POY of the conf Good luck Raider in the rest of your plays but be nice and respectful ..

thanks sports chat I just heard on the radio Grant is stepping down at North Texas and is the new Tex Tech coach. The 1st time I saw Grant close up was in San Antonio vs UTSA I sat right behind him and the NT bench NT has its best player Keith - Forgot his nama} who was unstopable A close game back and forth and suddenly the t North Texas star is arguing with UTSA fans and gets a "T" There are about 6 or 7 minutes left in the game with NT up by 1. As he comes over to the bench because Grant just took him out and He sits and pouts . A few NT players try to console him on the bench. UTSA goes up by 3 or 4 pts. . Then there up by 5. Grant walks over to the player because NT doesn't have a chance w/o this kid in the game ,pits his arm around him and says " son I need you in this game but your head is somewhere else can I put you back in you concentrate on the game not the fans The kid nodes his head realizing he screwed up. He goes back in hits a 3 gets a steal makes a great pass and hits another jumper and North Texas escapes with a 1 or 2 pt win. SO last year Grant and the head football coach go on a caravan to other cities to promote North Texas and recruit around the state of Texas. A guy Marshall who works out at La Fitness see's me between Raquetball games with my North Texas t-shirt We talk and he played football at North Texas ..He tells me if I'm going to the NT caravan alumni dinner where Grant is speaking. So I go I listen to Lidell the football coach and Grant the hoops coach. They are also raising money going from table to table .I introduce my self and tell him the story about the UTSA game. He laughs and remembers the incident perfectly I told him I sat right behind you when you played Tex State and you were the coach of Ark LR or Ark St and one of your big guys didn't box out and you pointed your finger right at him and benched him . He knew it and sat down immediately Then Danny gets fired from Texas St and they named you the North Texas coach. What he did at North Texas was unreal Defense became a priority He will be successful at Tex Tech and will get some players that aren't only offensive stars Thank you for the ride hopefully NT replaces you with someone with the same Philosophy.. Great season Mean Green fans
