He has gone pretty silent on social media about recruiting, I'm guessing right around the time his qualification status came into question so it's hard to follow, but have we actually offered?  He has never posted anything from us, and nothing is shown on recruiting sites.  I know that doesn't rule anything out, but you would think if he was seriously considering UNT he would have said at least one thing.

Reality here is that a kid who at one point was down to schools like A&M, Clemson, LSU and Bama would likely only come to UNT if we were one of the only ones giving him a chance.  It sounds like for a little while that may have been the case, but if he can get a P5 school to take a shot I think he's gone.  Let's hope that doesn't happen.

Hopefully he will look back and see how the other schools backed away and how Seth and crew stayed.

Tin foil hat time- Coach Littrell posted "Go Mean Green" on Twitter Sunday night, this tweet was "liked" by Jonathan Pickett (DE who had some P5 offers fall through and was also visiting this weekend), maybe one or both of these guys committed over the weekend?  Coach usually doesn't just randomly say something like that and most of his tweets are tied to recruiting in some way.  Wishful thinking?

Edit- Here's what Walerius had to say after the weekend..as well as retweeting the mentioned tweet from HC.  The hype is real.

SFA 1 UNT 0 ugh

Wow.  Yes, this has to be grades, so putting SFA 1, UNT 0 isn't accurate.  Kind of surprised he didn't go the JUCO route so he could transfer if he gets his grades in order.  For his sake, I hope he qualifies and gets an education.

I was watching Last Chance U and to see that some of the players that go to Georgia Tech and other schools (which I have always thought was a pretty good school) is so wild.  This poor kids have played football and been passed  along the way in high school.  They are no where near where they need to be academically to enter college.  I give a lot of credit for the teachers trying to help them at the JUCO level.  Texas football needs to worry about the kids education because not many will make it to the NFL and if they do make how long will they be there?   Their education is the future.  

BTW the former head coach is a caveman, he wants his players to change but he won't change his approach to the game.

      Yeah, take that all out, and he'll still probably make triple the next two years what I'll make my entire life.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I love bowl week and we finally got a great game in Boise. What a fun year for NIU. A win over Notre Dame and double overtime win to end the year. They showed some stones on those 2 drives in overtime. Love their style of play. Wish they were a slightly better fit for the American. They are Midwest hearty at our level. A solid G5. I’ve teetered back and forth about our game, swinging from we’ll get blown out with no Morris, to let’s do this. Get this bowl win in January 2025. My hope comes from our battle testing. We played some solid teams and played them fair to well. Army was strong when we got them, Tulane was legit until the end, San Antonio got hot when we got them, same with ECU. Memphis was Memphis. We beat the SBC and MWC. I don’t know. The SBC seems a bit shakier in ‘24 and we were grilled all season. We may be just as good as TSU and surprise. Viva the American. GMG

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      Especially when (and yes I keep harping on this same thing) the whole thing started because players were initially claiming they should have a share of the revenues generated from the use of their N.I.L. in broadcasts and video games. It's interesting that the ONLY share they've gotten from those is the $600 EA Sports money and NO TV revenue. Regarding "trickle down", that's gonna' be hard to do when most schools are LOSING money on FB. https://www.on3.com/nil/news/what-is-nil-everything-you-need-to-know-about-this-major-change-in-college-athletics/ You're right about the chaos and I'm all for MORE of it in order finally force some kind of sanity to this whole thing.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I couldn't tell you what Bowl most of the P2s played in last year either. Didn't care, still don't. The whole Bowl era is outdated. They should just scrape it and go to a larger playoff of 32 teams.
