The photo of the RBs in the article, who is that at the end of the RB line (the white guy)... is that Mauki or however it is spelt?

I really hope Murray is moved to a Tackle spot.   I think his height would cause throwing-lane issues with Fine & Shanbour if he's playing in the interior.  Glad to see he was at LT today.  IIRC, he was a little slow-footed last year when playing Tackle.  Hopefully Coach Langston can help there.

Please, please, no Guyton/Smiley/Jenkins as a returner.  We don't need to risk them unless they are just complete game-changers back there. 
I seem to remember Wyche getting some return touches last season, ineffectively.   Will be interested to see if Darden can win that job.  His HS tape had some pretty impressive returns.
If Siggers is so slippery, maybe he should get a shot?

Agreed No Guyton, Smiley, Jenkins at PR...

Darden, Siggers, Nic Smith, Evan Johnson, or even Hair-Griffen

Chumley and fellow eight end Kelvin Smith worked with UNT's offensive line for a portion of practice. It appears UNT will use both in the running game as blockers at times this season. 

Great news.  

They are mismatches.  If the other team puts someone in who can neutralize their blocking, run past them and catch a pass.  If they put in someone who can run with them, block them and run to that side.  

Of course, they will have to be effective run blockers first...

The scary thing with Darden is he's listed at 157 lbs. I almost want him to Redshirt a year simply for that fact. Kid is tiny by FBS standards.

Give me Hosley, Hair-Griffin, Evan Johnson, Wyche, or someone like Daniel Khan or Kam Duhon
