UNT Signs Star-Studded 2019 class

[Harry]

DENTON - North Texas signed one of its highest-rated classes since recruiting services started grading prospects, on the first day of the early signing period for college football.

 The Mean Green inked 23 recruits Wednesday for its 2019 signing class, 11 on offense and 12 on defense, the majority of which are rated 3-star prospects. ESPN graded 17 of the signees as 3-star, 247Sports graded 20 as 3-star, and the more conservative Rivals graded 10 prospects as 3-star. Add one more 3-star signee, a graduate transfer who is not graded this year but was a 3-star prospect out of high school.

All three services ranked the North Texas class as No. 1 in Conference USA and among the best of schools from the Group of 5 conferences.

"The North Texas football program definitely got a lot better today," Mean Green coach Seth Littrell said. "I feel like it was a great day."

The 23 signings fill the Mean Green's available scholarships.

"We want everyone to sign early and be a part of this family," Littrell said. "We sent 23 scholarships out and we got all of them back."

The approach to recruiting of past North Texas football regimes was to focus on those players largely ignored by Power 5 programs. No longer. Littrell and his staff adopted an aggressive strategy, going toe-to-toe with schools from the Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 and perennially bowl-bound Group of 5 teams and making offers a plethora of 4- and 3-star athletes.

That game plan is paying off. North Texas scored recruiting victories over TCU, Texas Tech, SMU, West Virginia, Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Houston, Kansas, Syracuse, Indiana, Virginia, Louisville, Memphis, Oregon State, Northwestern, Maryland, San Diego State, Army, Navy, Air Force, and C-USA schools.

This year marks a significant rise in UNT's recent returns as Littrell builds recruiting momentum. The 2017 class was rated No. 115 in the nation with six 3-star recruits by 247Sports and No. 94 with four 3-stars by Rivals. Last year, UNT's class was up to No. 102 with 12 3-stars according to 247Sports and No. 93 with six 3-stars per Rivals. ESPN graded none of the UNT recruits in either year as 3-star.

But the 2019 class is garnering rave reviews from the recruiting services. Rivals ranked the Mean Green's class No. 55 in the nation and 247Sports ranked North Texas No. 62. Both services grade the UNT class as one of the top classes of Group of 5 programs. ESPN only ranks the top 40 programs nationally, and no Group of 5 program cracked that level.

The Mason Fine class was the beginning of something pretty damn special.  

Look at the schools listed above that we out rank.

I did.  It just takes commitment from the top and from the alumni.  UNT truly can be the big dog in the conference and a player in FBS if they commit to the effort it takes.

[PlummMeanGreen]

What impressed me with this list is how SL & Assistants signed a bushel basket filled with players who run the 40 at a 4.4 clip including one Linebacker with such speed.  

With these kind of speed merchants we start winning championships, beating more P5’s & winning bowl games.  Speed kills.
