Seems like a harmless question to me emmitt. My point being, isn't that a pay site, if so, how would someone over here know? Geez, do you still have dreams of strapping bombs to yourself, and running

Because some want to think SMU us our rival. They aren't. We can do much better. If we are going to pick a private school with which to have a rivalry, that school should be Rice.

Is this our 6th recruit to lose out of this class now? I wouldn't be surprised to see Sam Miller end up somewhere else as well. Rick

We offered him a while back, he's visited, and Vito even did a story on him. I thought I had made a thread on him, but I guess not. So good job, Marty. Edited by BillySee58

Committed per Vito!

Like NT03 and I said above, we're not sure what happened to his original thread. He held FCS offers from Sam Houston State and Stephen F Austin, but I want to say we reported in his original thread that UTSA offered at some point.

Per his max preps profile he racked up 61 tackles with 6 sacks and 1 interception for the 9 games which he had stats recorded for. He was originally a QB, and just started play defense last year as a junior. Could really be starting to get a hold of the position.

According to his Twitter, ACU was in-home visiting and NMSU offered.

This is great news, guys.

If you rearrange the letters in Eli Howard, you get:

A Wild Hero

Halo Wired

I Herald: OW!

This guy is obviously a hero with a good, moral upbringing and he's going to rain pain on opposing offenses.

Welcome, Eli. We need more virtuous heroes to inflict pain on our enemies.

That's where we stand then. Competing with the Southland. That ante has ruh-heally got to get upped.

When we're winning, we can rope in Tee Gorees, Jeffrey Wilsons & Sam Millers (committed before 2014 season started). When we're losing, we're competing with SLC schools & losing commits to SMU.

Just win baby.

Yup.

Also was named district 3-6A defensive MVP. I know they're not what they used to be, but that district has the Odessa and Midland schools, as well as Abilene. Very impressive. Pairing this kid with Sam Miller and Tillman Johnson a grade ahead should give us a great rotation at DE.

DE Eli Howard, Central (San Angelo, TX)

I mentioned Howard briefly yesterday so I figured I'd catch up with him. He's a promising player in my view, because he's still so new to playing d-end. He also has good size and a bit of a bounce to his step.

"I have three offers; North Texas, Sam Houston and SFA. I also hear from Boise St., Yale, Princeton, New Mexico, TCU, UTSA, SMU, TXST and a little from UT. I think more offers will come. Last year I was 235, now I'm 250."

"Texas State wants to see me this season. They were the first school to show interestin me. I went to to a Spring scrimmage/unoffical visit. They have my transcript and scores. I'm kind of bummed because I figured I'd have an offer from them by now but we talk so often so I'm thankful for that."

I think this kid is poised for a big year. I'd offer ASAP if I was on the Bobcat staff.

Biggest thing I saw out of this kid was his eyes. He had a good feel for deciphering the play and making something happen. Decent block shedding skills. Not too fast, but has good drive and pursuit skills. He is only going to get better over time with the right coaching. I dont see him as an immediate impact guy. He could use a RS to get stronger on develop those skills. Being an ex QB you could tell on some of those plays he was reading the QB's eyes.

He was defensive MVP of 3-6A. Interesting that he played another position so I am assuming he is a late bloomer which is exactly the types of guys we like to land...

      Would You Really Rather Talk NIL/Transfer Portal

      I think the city tries to balance us vs TWU. Denton can’t go all in on either one so it goes part time effort on both. I have no proof, just a vibe.

      State of College Football

      Nobody watches regular season college basketball. When the football Monet dries up how will a nice G5 basketball program generate revenue to stay that way? If you aren't a rabid college basketball fan and really interested in using UNT basketball player's Name Image & Likeness what is a UNT Basketball Player's image worth if he or she isn't on the NBA or WNBA's draft radar? We will never be able to afford to outbid any of the top 25 basketball teams.

      UNT Basketball's Wright Makes Game Winner To Seal 18-Point Comebac

      DENTON — Atin Wright hit a game-winning 3-pointer to cap off an 18-point comeback as the UNT men's basketball team opened American play with a 78-75 victory over reigning league tournament champion UAB at the Super Pit on Tuesday. North Texas (10-3, 1-0) trailed by 18 in the final seconds of the first half and went into the break down 17. Early in the second half, the Mean Green locked in defensively and went on an 11-0 run to chip away at the deficit. Senior Latrell Jossell buried 3-pointer after 3-pointer, finishing with a single game season-high six and ending the game with 20 points, his 10th career 20-point game. With 3:57 left in the game UNT captured its first lead since early in the first half as senior Johnathan Massie finished a layup to put North Texas up 71-69. The game went back and forth from there on out but the final shot belonged to Wright who sank his contested 3-pointer as the clock hit zero. Wright finished with a game-high 22 points and was 11-11 from the free throw line. "It really was a tale of two halves," head coach Ross Hodge said. "We've competed with these guys a lot through the years and it's hard to explain just how physical they drive the basketball and how aggressive they are. We locked in defensively and started grabbing rebounds and getting stops." Next up for UNT will be a trip to No. 21 Memphis on Jan. 5. The Mean Green are aiming for their first road win over a top 25 opponent since 1971. For more information on UNT Basketball tickets, contact the Mean Green Ticket Office at 940-565-2527 or atticketoffice@unt.edu. Fans can purchase tickets at www.meangreentickets.com or visit the UNT Athletics Ticket Office located at Gate 2 of DATCU Stadium between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
