A look at North Texas key position battles this spring

I am interested in the assumption I see here that Buyers is secure at one corner. I'm not so sure about that really. He is a helluva tackler but I can see a better cover guy taking his starting spot.- 80 replies

A look at North Texas key position battles this spring
97and03 replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
I agree in some ways, but I think the D-line will be at worst the same as last year and likely better. I hate that we lost Watson to injury though. Wallace really stepped up his game the end of the season and Orr is solid more or less. We have played our best with a strong rotation, so my question is how will the depth be? I would love to see 3 deep at each position you mentioned. It would be great if at least one of these big freshmen are ready to go from day 1 - as well as Tauaallo and Haboul. Really need Haboul (2012 class) to step up and provide some of that depth. The JUCO kid can plug in at one DE slot (likely). All 5 returning guys at DE played at least some last year so that is a plus. I look for modest improvement.- 80 replies

Hence the massive influx of JUCOs and transfers this year. -

And then we see another post about 5 home games and AD leadership.. I think that I have to put OT pretty much at 1A. Obviously QB play HAS to be #1, but the inability to fill the OT spot that Lemon ended up taking was a close second for me on why things went wrong last year. I love Cyril Lemon, but he was not an All-Conference Tackle. I think that if someone from that pool of current players was good enough, they would have played. McKinney was not as good as Lemon would have been at Guard by a long shot and Lemon at Tackle was not as good as a true Tackle would have been either. And now we are replacing both Tackle spots? Yikes! Hopefully one or two of those existing Tackles on the roster spent the year on the bench wisely and used it as a motivator to get good enough to start. Mac has recruited a LOT of offensive linemen in his time here and most have never seen the field, except for some last game mop-up duty. I think Trussell and Rentfro made it into the 4th quarter at Tulsa in 2013. Banogu has seem more meaningful time than any of the career backups (maybe combined) and he wasn't even a scholarship signee. Kirby was also a walk-on and McKinney a JUCO. And you saw how hard we hit the transfers and JUCOs to try to get a line assembled for this year. I am VERY concerned about the line for this year. I have concerns about the WR position as well, but man we have talent and potential there. But...all high-rated WR recruits under Mac have been a bust. So who knows? We need some guys to step up, but we always seem to have someone do that. Not that the position has been a strength at all, but guys come out of nowhere at WR most years. I think my #4 though is the safety position. We never adequately replaced Trice and now we are replacing his replacement and replacing Lee. Scary thought to me. And we are mainly relying on JUCOs and transfers along with a Sophomore (McClain, who does look pretty good so far in limited action). Really a lot of unknowns here that Spring ball will help clear up - to a point.- 80 replies

Maybe because there are countless threads more appropriate than a position battles thread? So...any true candidate for OT? Which incoming recruits set to impact the defensive line?- 80 replies

http://recruiting.scout.com/story/1523278-east-texas-weekly-recruiting-notebook "The East Texas offensive line duo of Austin Anderson and Riley Anderson accounted for seven new offers during the past week. TCU, SMU, and Kansas State offered both brothers, while Austin also picked up an offer from Vanderbilt. Austin Anderson now holds 16 offers, while Riley Anderson has 15. The Vanderbilt offer is the only difference in their offer lists." -

I think the agenda part is clear in the justification for posting on the football board. I am very pleased with coach Kee and I agree she and the girls need to be lauded. -

They were for sale after the bowl but when I tried to buy one later in the year they had stopped selling them.

If it isn't being used elsewhere in a Texas rivalry then I would suggest the Battle of Gonzales "Come and Take It" flag. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Texas_Flag_Come_and_Take_It.svg

Hence me saying that I hope the freshmen come ready to play.

Three on scholarship at a position where we have sometimes had three on the field at the same time. Plus two of those three have shown zero to this point.

No Freddie Warner. Damn I hate to see that.

A couple of thoughts here. We have the same number of QBs on scholarship as WRs (5). We have 10 (11?) LBs on scholarship. Seems a ridiculously high number. Thin at TE. Hope those two freshmen come ready to get on the field. Same at DT where we have 5 scholarship players contending for what should be 5-6 spots. Come on freshman.
