If he couldn't crack it at Illinois, I don't know if he could here.

Are we talking about the same UNT squad??

Have you seen our line?

Yeah, they were horrible. However, not sure a private school kid that couldn't make the depth chart at a bottom feeder of the Big 10 will help either.

Not sure what the private school part of your argument means?

If we got a kid with that offer list this board would be going crazy right now.

Private school kids historically don't make it at UNT. Not sure if it's the lower level of football they are playing in high school or the different culture at UNT. Just an observation.

He did have a nice offer list, and I get what you are saying.

How big of a pool of data does this represent? I can't imagine it being large enough to make this a conclusive observation, but maybe I'm wrong.

Illinois has been trending up. Finished 4th this season.

This class really comes to mind. We signed 4 private school kids. I only remember Malik Dilonga being somewhat productive. Another that comes to mind is that DE from Grapevine Faith. I think he ended up quitting the team.

I am all for using the grad transfer portal, I just hope the kids end up being productive.

I believe Ben Knox in basketball also went to a private school.
