We are excited about your interest in the University of North Texas and Mean Green men's basketball. Armed with a reputation for high-octane offense and hustling defense, North Texas head coach Johnny Jones has the Mean Green at the top of the Sun Belt Conference. Jones, who has led the Mean Green to four straight 20-win seasons, took the Mean Green back to the NCAA Tournament in 2010 for the second time in four years after claiming the Sun Belt Tournament crown and the West division title.

Quick Hits On North Texas
A member of the Sun Belt Conference, North Texas has captured 14 conference championships since 2001. Individually, 69 Mean Green student-athletes were named All-Sun Belt Conference during the 2009-10 school year. This past season, the Mean Green won two conference championships and finished in the top three at conference championships in eight sports. Many of the teams posted their best seasons in program history.

In 2009-10, four Mean Green sports saw postseason play. The men's basketball team won the Sun Belt Conference tournament title and earned a berth to the NCAA Tournament. The women's tennis also won a conference championship, its first Sun Belt title in school history. Two Mean Green golfers, freshmen Rodolfo Cazaubon and Carlos Ortiz, were selected to play in the NCAA Men's Golf Regional in Bremerton, Wash., in May, making North Texas the only team in the nation with two true freshmen individual players participating in an NCAA Regional. Fifteen track& field athletes qualified for the NCAA Championship Preliminary Rounds in 12 different events in May, and four moved on in two events to the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Eugene, Ore., in June.

Academic Athletic Services
In the Fall of 2005, the academic and compliance staff relocated to the Mean Green Village. Located on Bonnie Brae, the new Student-Athlete Development Center is three times the size of the former academic center. The Center serves as the cornerstone of the Mean Green Village and is only a short walk from the surrounding sports facilities.
