This part of the game can be removed. A 17 yr old zit faced kid isn't dangling carrots over my head regardless of what his talent is. He can pack his bags and getta matching right out of Denton county

If we land this kid with a UCLA offer I'll be outside the athletic department doors at 5AM the next morning ready to shake hands with anyone willing to handshake.

Agree. It would be different if he was a top 100 recruit in the nation, but he's not even nationally ranked.

In other news...I've narrowed down my destination for lunch tomorrow down to 4 places. Jimmy johns, chipotle, chick fil a, and whataburger.

I don't mind it at all, it's a 17/18 year old kid having a little fun of a once in a lifetime event. I for one am hoping we are listed 1st on the list.

Stop. If he wants to make a top 4 then so be it. He earned that right by being much better at sports than any of us. This is part of the game now. You always say you want UNT to be big time.. This is what happens all the time when going after good or big time recruits.

Does the morris transfer affect starkel at all? or kincade?

Morris can QB 2016 Kincade won't be available till 2017 unless he gets a rare waiver. Only effect Nick if he doesn't want to have to compete for job first year

That makes little sense. As if we are so rich in talent we turn our nose up at kids because they have a little fun with the whole recruiting game? Kids have been doing it for years and it's how it is. Another reason I'm excited to have a youthful staff who understands how the kids operate now.

Good grief....

Morris's probably not, kin aide maybe. Starker wants to go to the west coast. I've talked with his coach several times and each time he reiterated that point.

I don't like it either, but I don't get how you can be self-righteous about a kid listing his top 4 schools yet suggest committing blatant recruiting violations to get these recruits in another thread. They're high school kids with thousands of random people they've never met following them on Twitter, clinging to every word they post to see where they're going to school. 

If we sign more kids who do that, I'll probably roll my eyes but at least that means we're getting kids with other options.

So if 5-star OL Gregory Little from Allen came out and said I've re-opened my recruiting to play closer to home and narrowed it down to Baylor, Texas A&M, TCU, and UNT you'd tell him no thanks? Just checking.

Of course I wouldn't say no. But that's not quite the same. He's not delivering himself as a diva by doing it that way. He had a change a heart for whatever reason and is deciding what is in his best interest. Starkel is doing the same thing, but he's putting himself out there as a diva by the way he is doing it. So, no thanks.

Duh. 

But I don't cling onto any word they say. That's the point of the problem. Who cares. My suggestions of committing recruiting violations are 100% joke. I would be extremely disappointed if we were doing that. I mean, we're UNT after all. Why risk violations so we can springboard ourselves to a 6-6 record? No thanks.

Ok then. What if he handled his the exact same was Starkel did. Would you turn down a 5 star recruit?

If I was was top recruit I would be doing all the antics.. they're no harm  AT ALL. They are kids. I don't see how it matters what so ever if they have top 4, 10, 50 for that matter. If anything when he gives his top 4 and we aren't on it we move on and use resources elsewhere. Again bring in talent and figure out the rest in the spring.

Listen, does it matter what I would do? I will tell you that if I was on the recruiting trail antics like that would rub me the wrong way. No one gives a shit what your top 4 are. Keep it close to the vest, discuss it with your family, ponder on it and make a firm verbal commitment to a university. Those are the kind of recruits that I would want. Not the ones that have hats, gloves, cleats, hair dyed, and every other dumb prop in front of them during signing day. I sure as hell don't care about reading some little social media insert from a kid narrowing down his options. Narrow them down in the confines of your home with your family and just know that your options are narrowed down and you will listen a little closer to those recruiters until a final decision is made. 

Just curious, do you have a lawn at your house?

Entertainment I guess. Although, he and a few "we should run the triple option/hired Willie Fritz" broken records have become so repetitive on here I've considered it.

Those guys sometimes provide actual useful insight or information.

      What to expect from Odom?

      I just looked up his coaching history. As a DC, he’s only been a DC as an interim. He did it as Missouri and at USC. Both were for 3 games. This would be his 3rd stint as interim DC. Not sure what defense he runs.

      What to expect from Odom?

      I would suspect that we've seen the end of the 3-3-5. My guess is that he will go back to the 3-4 we ran through the middle of the season. We have run some 4-2-5 in obvious passing situations. If he is a 4-man front guy, he could use that as a base. I don't really think he will do that. We have to do something to fill more gaps and get a pass rush. You can do either with the fronts we currently have, but in the 3-4 you have to be willing to shade the nose. Caponi absolutely would not do that. We NEVER slid the front or moved the nose off of a zero shade. Brown can be a much bigger factor than he has been. So can our DT's. I just hope we put our kids in a situation where they have a chance. Filling gaps on the LOS from the third level is a good way to give up 500 yards a game. Hopefully we never see that again.

      Usually you’ll have one game during the week and one during the weekend. It’s just how college basketball does things. Our home non-con is atrocious (both teams and dates) but there are some good weekend games in conference.
