Why would you says catch him off? He took time out of his schedule to come to Denton from Florida. Plenty of kids take mid week official visits. Patrick Hudson too a mid week visit to UT a week ago. Not uncommon. Mid week they can get the full attention of the staff.

Maybe the recruit will take care of the List Scratch-Off after reading these comments.

Lol. We aren't that important.

Always gives me a chuckle when people post crap like this.

I'm not sure that I fully agree with you here. If grown men get angry to the point where they give you their cell phone number to discuss how horribly their son plays football due to having read comments on here suggesting so.... and it's plainly obvious that kids care very much about what is said about them on Twitter... then why would it be any different?

I wouldn't want a kid (or a parent, for that matter) that was so fragile he let a dumbass fan board influence his college decision. 

I think people severely overrate the difference made by what they have to say.

Human nature.

If it's who I think you're talking about, I've read enough elsewhere to think that players family may have been more active than others in that regard.  Probably not the family where one of them wore headphones during the games.

All else being equal, given the choice between playing at a school where the fan base is a bunch of scrotums or playing at a school where the fan base is not a bunch of scrotums, many recruits would probably choose the less scrotumnal school.

I don't know about that. I think most kids would pick UT over NT 10 times out of 10.

Again, "all else being equal."  Do you think all else is equal between UT and NT?

Certainly not in the "being scrotumnal" category

i am just think he did not spend much time here, so does he really have an interest...I love for him to play here but just don't get a good feeling about a short visit.

This board absolutely has a negative impact on recruiting.  There is no questioning that.  When a recruit is looking at a particular school they are going to dig through the Internet to find any and all pertinent information about the program.  Unfortunatly for us most searches regarding UNT football turn up something on this board.  So does one persons comment have a negative impact? No. But,  the collective does.  This place is one stop shopping for all things wrong with Mean Green football.  

I am not advocating change.  If things were better with the program their would be little for us to bitch about.  I also don't believe in censorship and see the good aspects of this board. I just think you should quit kidding yourself.

All recruits never use this as criteria to pick a school. 

Just dumb.

And I think you WAY overvalue what anything said on this board means to any recruit.

      Honest tactical question here…

      Yall can lay the blame of this all at the feet of the Pirate. Leach having some success at Texas Tech, at a time when A&M fell apart and Baylor was non-competitive, while nobody else but Texas was a Big 12 school, led to him getting some kind of legendary status. And his influence on TX HS football went off the charts, because it was “more fun for the kids”…and it basically destroyed the development of linemen on both sides of the ball and made defense a part of the game that just needs a stop or two per half. Hell, Art Briles said that out loud. Just get a stop or two. So now, we get the luxury of seeing a short yardage situation have the QB in shotgun, with a running back behind him, all about 4-5 yards behind the line of scrimmage, trying to get a yard. And then the coaches look exasperated when we don’t pick up the first down/TD, as we get tackled behind the line of scrimmage.

      WBB at Houston (11/24/24)

      I don't hate baseball, but what I don't like is people who seem to want something for nothing . A dream with out a plan is still just a dream and far I have seen no plan to fund a venue. I went to a health care seminar years ago where a woman who's husband was terminally ill. About 70% of a dying patients hospital bill is generated in the last 24 hours trying to keep them alive. She said that she didn't care what it cost as long as she didn't have to pay for it. Based upon lack of football and basketball support at UNT why would you think that baseball " would lure fans in the spring, spur donations, as well as tickets and and merchandise. "However in the future, which is now, universities will be forced to look at at profit and loss is the athletic department just like the rest of the universities departments. My definition is revenues less expenses equals profit or loss.Based upon your definition of revenue sports swimming would fall into that category if we charged dollar to attend a meet, passed around a collection plate, and sold swim caps. In summary UNT has only so many beans in the pot and to waste them on a very expense non revenue sport seems ridiculous.

      If it worked at UIW why not here?

      Ask some of the podcasters, they would say "Oh he has Texas ties", "Look what he did with Cam Ward"

      Honest tactical question here…

      I don't understand the reluctance to incorporate some short-yardage options from under center. You can still be air raid or whatever you want the other 90% of the time. It's so limiting to not have it.
