'18 DT Calvin Avery (Bishop Dunne)

GMG24 · February 23, 2017

This kid will end up in the 40-50 offer range.

Hunter Green · February 23, 2017

Hard to fathom why we were so late to offer. Still have fingers crossed that Cooley can persuade him to come here with a good chance to start all four years.

GO MEAN GREEN!

Hey may start all four years (if he doesn't get drafted after 3) NO MATTER WHERE HE GOES. Dude is VERY GOOD.

We should not hold our breath, but if he happens to sign with the Mean Green, he would be BY FAR the highest-rated recruit we've ever pulled in.

Well, why not North Texas?

That is a great question for Cooley to ask him!

BTW...Has anyone seen Hunter Green and Dan McCarney in the same place at the same time?

Whether he picks us or not, get our hat on that table on TV! Looking at you @Cooley

I can only image what this addition to Ham-Bone and English could/would do to C-USA OLines...

NFL Teams yes like a sexy program name, but they go off of production.. Just to name 1 recent DT that came from C-USA is Vern Butler from LATech, went in the 1st round to Carolina Panthers in the 2016 Draft. Also, it was brought up about Denton being far enough away from home you won't be bothered by family nonstop, but close enough family can come see you every single homegame

@Cooley hope these can added to the selling pointsfor UNT

DeepGreen · March 14, 2017

Calvin is a top target for the Univ of Texas.

Cooley · March 15, 2017

UNTLifer · March 15, 2017

So @Cooley, does North Texas even have a shot?

Cooley · March 15, 2017

Yes

I sure hope the coaches are doing everything possible to make this happen then. These types of opportunities don't come along a lot and need to be jumped on.

DeepGreen · March 15, 2017

The next Joe Greene in the making?

Honest question asked out of curiosity - why do you say that? Does his family have ties to UNT or something?

UNTLifer · March 15, 2017

Not to answer for Cooley, but I think it is mentioned at the start of this thread that his parents are UNT grads, and of course, Uncle Cooley is as well.

Parents are not. I'm his great uncle. (My sister's grandson) I graduated from NTSU, my spouse, both of our sons and deceased mother-in-law. My youngest son graduated from Dunne.

any response back from them (the coaches) Cooley? I will literally piggy back Calvin and Kievan to UNT Jr. Day if they have any interest in attending and while host a GoFundMe to buy myself a new back when it's over.
