Harry

What a class act he is! Best wishes to him.

Until we beat FAU I just don't think we will get the respect we want and deserve. Hopefully we can make that happen at home this season!

I guess my question is -- did we even try to keep him? I could see him maybe going to a bigger program but state? Something doesn't add up.

These types of situations should not be allowed to take advantage of the new redshirt rule.

I read that Tom Herman says it is difficult for them to land quality walk-ons at Texas because they require them to meet the academic standards of a regular student at UT and few can get in. From my understanding it is up to the school to make that policy.

Good discussion. My question is do the preferred walk-ons have to meet the same entrance requirements as regular students at UNT. That can have a big impact on the level of walk on you can attract.

This is a different podcast. The Barbershop Podcast starts closer to the season.

Oh no... this hurts. Dang it he was a good player. 😥

Join Harry, @TheReal_jayD and @GMG24 as we discuss UNT's first Fall Camp practices of the 2018 season as well as the latest in recruiting and of course the big opener against SMU.

Josiah Tauaefa It's interesting, I read up on him and it appears he didn't have as good a sophomore year as he did as a freshman. Not sure if it was due to injury or what. Heck of a talent though. And he wanted to play here to my understanding.

The kettle corn is a must and I usually take that home. The tortilla wrapped jalepeno sausage is my staple. Super good and easy to eat.

Here are some other favorites of mine:

Thought this would be a fun thread to discuss your favorite Apogee Stadium concessions, including food, beers, desserts etc. What is your staple? What would you recommend others try? What are new concessions they are offering in 2018 or you would like to see them offer? Where is the item located in the stadium (Alumni/Student side, under the wing etc)? Here is one option I missed that I may try this time around:

Houston-Lamar weakside end Kenneth Dotson “...Dotson just committed to North Texas on Tuesday night but even still, Dotson’s recruitment should continue this season, as his only other offer besides the Mean Green came from UMass. Some team could still make a play to get a strong and relentless pass-rusher if it looks his way this fall, but UNT has done a fantastic job recruiting this class...”

Damn man, FAU is #33 - can you imagine how much excitement if we were able to get in he top 25 this season? We should be pulling for FAU to win every game except ours and we get them at home to boot! GO MEAN GREEN!!

As fall camp approaches, with players reporting on Thursday, August 2, MeanGreenSports.com takes a look back at some of the biggest moments from the 2017 season. MeanGreenSports.com relives each of these key moments from the nine-win season last year. We conclude our series with the win over UAB, which ended up being a major turning point in the Mean Green’s season. Entering Conference USA play, North Texas was coming off two consecutive road losses and the Mean Green were desperate for a win. Losses at SMU and Iowa put North Texas in a 1-2 hole to start the year, and on paper, figured to have a strong probability of beating the Blazers, who brought their program back after a two-year hiatus. In the early-going, that certainly appeared to be the case, as North Texas jumped out to a 30-14 halftime lead. UAB, however, never went away. North Texas eventually held off the UAB rally and Trevor Moore kicked a game-winning field goal with seven seconds left to seal the victory. This game was the first in which the Mean Green offense flexed its muscle over the course of a full 60 minutes against an FBS opponent, putting 46 points on the board. Yes, the Mean Green had dominated its season-opener with FCS foe Lamar to the tune of 59-14, and had a strong second half at SMU, but this was the true arrival of the potent attack. Balance was the key, as they rolled up 548 yards of total offense (287 on the ground and 261 through the air). Trailing 7-3 early, Jalen Guyton turned in one of the biggest highlights of the season, hauling in a very difficult catch along the home sideline over UAB corner Darious Williams (now with the Baltimore Ravens). The catch was a highlight on its, own, but the work Guyton put in to find the end zone made it that much more special. It was the ultimate competitive play for the newcomer to Denton. read more: http://www.meangreensports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080118aaa.html

Very encouraging!
