LETS GOOOOO

[Silent Eagle]

More info. I’m confused. 

[Green Crazy]

Will we hear about it today?

[TheReal_jayD]

 

[Harry]

Awesome pickup!!!  

[Marty]

Yes, much needed DL help!

[AustinFromUNT]

From the same school as Shaw who is a DT we picked up in the last class. Also has an offer from Tulsa.

[jtm0097]

Awesome. Build that pipeline.

[Harry]

This is how you build a program.  We are starting to build our defensive line talent in a big way and that makes me very excited about the future.  GMG!

[Mad Hatter]

Wow! Go Mean Green!!

[AustinFromUNT]

#3 on the list of best DL in Oklahoma.

Demeco doesn't have a rating yet but he made the Daily Oklahoman Super 30 so it should be a good one when released.  I also saw that he was up to 290.  So, it looks like at 6-3, 290 we got about the biggest and best available.  

We no doubt have Derrick Shaw to thank for this.  Maybe in a couple of years they'll be playing side by side on our defensive line.  

It looks as if Tulsa was the only other FBS offer.  He did hold three FCS offers including Abilene Christian and SFA.

I watched about two plays and could see that this guy delivers a pop to the offensive lineman.  Glad to have him aboard.

And we still have an offer out for #2 on that list.

HELL YES!!

I’ve never been so excited about the future of the football team!  This is great!

I really hope we can redshirt this kid! A year under Coach Zach would be great! This will be how we build DL and OL thru red shirting! Congrats to all!

[KRAM1]

Great get for the Mean Green.  Let's hang on and get that signature during the Dec. early signing period.  The Mean Green are certainly on an upward trajectory in recruiting these days.  Be still my heart!

[GrayEagle]

Wow!  This is a great way to cure boredom that has been occurring from the end of spring training to the beginning of fall training.  

New playing field, very good recruiting season (and not over), IPF coming soon, TV revenue doubling, and record year for fund raising all resulting in improving our culture.  We still have a long way to go but we're much closer to where we want to be than where we were.  

There are more improvements in facilities, facility upgrades and staff in all sports with even more planned. 

It's a great time to be a part of the Mean Green Nation.

The cultural shift we’re experiencing in athletics and our upward trajectory as a university is something I always had a feeling would happen. I remember telling friends in 08’ that the value of our degrees would only increase over time. IMO we’re starting to see that happen. GMG

According to 247sports we are currently ranked 59th in the standings for 2019.

The teams we are ranked above that are worth mentioning are as follows: Oregon State, BYU, Rutgers, UH, UCF, WV, Arizona, Memphis, Louisville, K State, WKU, Boise State, LA tech, Troy(?), Syracuse, Tulsa, UCLA, Missouri, USF, Washington State, SDSU, Army. 

Of course, we are top of CUSA - WKU & La Tech are the only schools I felt were worth my time to type. 

This is with Roland not being ranked! I believe he could be a 3 star!  GMG

I believe he will be ranked as a 3* as well, curious where his actual number will fall. 

Between 79 and 81

This is what Steve Kragthorpe did when he went to Tulsa. He immediately used his ties in the DFW area to build up Tulsa's roster, at the expense of both UNT and SMU. Now, Seth Littrell is doing the exact same thing to them, getting kids from Oklahoma that would be good Tulsa recruits and getting them to come down here.
