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.

      State of College Football

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
