UNT basketball has been around since 1916. They have won their conference 3 times TOTAL. Two of which were under Coach Jones. They went to the NCAA Tournament 3 times TOTAL. Two of which were under Coach Jones.

He continuously got good talent to a school with zero history and performed well for UNT. You need to get a grip. Winning 50% at UNT is solid. Big programs go play the UNT's during OOC so they don't have an inflated % like big conference teams.


Got a buddy in the sports admin department at UNT...we played college ball together and I asked him about Jones's teams at North Texas and he said "we had to outscore everybody...no defense." Take that for what it's worth bro.

It seemed to work didn't it? He took one of the worst Bball programs in D1 to multiple NCAA tournaments and conference championships. It's not like he inherited some traditional power and turned them into crap.

Most mid majors have to play a fast paced, pressing style of basketball to win. That way they can compensate for their lack of size.
