If this is really what it was all about then good luck to the kid. We'll be fine with the others we are bringing in. Just found this online at the DRC...................... Tomlin: UNT not the best fit Southlake Carroll linebacker Derek Tomlin began having second thoughts about his decision to play for UNT earlier this season when he was forced to sit out with an injury. Those doubts led to a player ranked No. 81 in The Dallas Morning News Area Top 100 list to de-commit from UNT this week. “When I got injured that put things into perspective,” Tomlin said. “Education is important. I wanted to think about if I was injured, would I still want to go to school at North Texas? I decided that I didn’t.” Tomlin said that he does not know where he might end up playing college football, but that Air Force and Vanderbilt were recruiting him before he committed to UNT. Tomlin said that he might call Vanderbilt’s coaches. Tomlin said he doubted that he would change his mind now that he has decided not to play for the Mean Green, which struggled last season under first-year head coach Todd Dodge. UNT finished 2-10 under the former Southlake Carroll coach. Tomlin played for Dodge and for several of his assistants at Carroll who are now at UNT. “The way they finished had nothing to do with my decision,” Tomlin said. “They will turn it around. I know what they can and will do.” Tomlin is the second player to de-commit from UNT this month. Los Fresnos guard Eloy Atkinson changed his commitment from UNT to UTEP so that he could play with a former high school teammate who was a member of the Miners’ last recruiting class.
