Ride those coattails for as long as you can, Coach.

This has to be good for UNT, right?

[Withers940]

Is there anyway all the mayors, city councilmen and police chiefs can put a metroplex ban for anything UTSA and UTEP? Every time I read the letters "U T S A" my skin crawls.

[DeepGreen]

So where are we setting up satellite camps?  Greater San Antonio area, South Louisiana, West Texas,....?????

[MeanGreenTexan]

Doesn't matter because it's scheduled on a different day than any of UNT's metroplex camps (2 in Denton & 1 in Mesquite).

I imagine many top-level area recruits will be in attendance at the LSU camp, and will walk away disappointed if they get an offer from UTSA & not LSU.   Probably best to have your own camps... like we do.

I think it's great the Athletic Department is placing the disclaimer "* TIMES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE" in case they screwed up again.

^^

Disclaimer should be on every communication sent out by the department.

Looks like the Hattiesburg Hustler's work ethic is alive and well in softball recruiting...

Yeah, totally. Go ahead Brett and tell how good this is for UNT.

Not surprising that he crowned San Antonio as our biggest rival in CUSA, since he just happens to be a graduate from that place. I don't see them as being any more of a rival than LT, UTEP, or Rice. Maybe that's because I've known a lot of grads. from those 3 schools, but very few from UT-San Antonio.

Ahh. Guess I got fooled by a photoshop joke on here a few weeks ago. My bad.

It's okay to appreciate BV every now and then, right?

or am I evil and misguided for being okay with the dude?

You might still be evil and misguided no matter your stance on BV...

Anyone present on this site is certainly misguided.  Not necessarily evil.

Can we stop talking about him as if he's not an active user on this board and in this very thread? Let's just try to address him directly

I got accepted there, but then I realized I just couldn't envision looking up at my degree hanging on the wall in 20 years and seeing it say "Truman State".

I actually did --barely. 5-year plan.  Class of 1990.

Desoto is full of talent... Can we fight UTSA for the camp rights? I have some brass knuckles that need some breaking in.

Speaking of softball, WT signed two girls from Guyer last year. One of them, Shane Starkey , has been a starter since game one . They are now 53 -3 and on their way to the National Championship Tourney. Don't know if UNT recruited the girls or not.
