Is there a draft forecast of  the round he may go in?

He is still likely a late round choice. I would guess 6, but that's based solely on tangibles and school.

In reality he will spend a year learning and then blow open some doors when he gets his chance

(Note: this is based largely on the fact that this draft is and needs to be defense heavy. Lot of high scoring needs to be balanced)

The fact that he didn't make Biletnikoff finalists is downright insulting.  DeVonta Smith from Bama is the runaway winner as he should be, but no excuse for him to not be in the top 3. 

DeVonta Smith- 11 games, 98 rec, 1,511 yds, 17 TD

Elijah Moore- 9 games, 86 rec, 1,193 yds, 8 TD

Kyle Pitts- 11 games, 43 rec, 770 yds, 12 TD

Jaelon Darden- 9 games, 74 rec, 1,190 yds, 19 TD

As for his draft prospects he is going to need an impressive 40 time to overcome his size issues in my opinion.  Definitely no guarantees he is drafted, but if he is it would be round 6 or 7.

Hated not seeing him in the bowl game, but completely understand the need to protect his future. Look forward to seeing him in the NFL

Our poor performance in the bowl amplified Darden’s value.  A shame he couldn’t also play on defense.

Im not so sure I want to see a lot of WRs playing defense. I can almost hear the bones snapping...

And Pitts is a freaking TE, not a WR.

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      Ummm where did you see that UNT's endowment is that high? Also, I doubt we could have hired Sanders. If you're interested in that kind of a gamble, would you be interested in Jason Witten who appears to be following the Sanders path? We could be his Jackson State.

      I find this thread comical. A program that wouldn't even pursuit Sanders as he was getting ready to leave Jackson State. They held on to Littrell could actually win something in year 7 is going to kick out Coach ELF and his flashy offense after year 2? 🤣. You can't give tickets away because it is so poorly managed and underperforming. If I were tasked with actually sabatoging the program in a covert manner I couldn't do it better. I wouldn't think I would get away with hiring a coach with no college experience as my head coach and retaining another coach for 7 years with nothing to show for it. Hell why aim low, let's go get Jason Garrett. He has NFL experience. 🤣🤣🤣

      That is comical. 🤣 The only thing that makes things move in a capitalist soceity is money. And our Football program doesn't generate it. I refuse to continue to waste my time with a core fanbase that seems not to understand that. A fanbase that 💩on even the idea of pursuing a transcendent force with a home and other local tie in the North Texas region like Coach Sanders. Colorado Budget/Endowment: 2.3 Billion North Texas: 2.6 Billion Colorado Student Enrollment: 37k North Texas: 47 k There is no excuse for a program in a perfect position to reap the most benefit from Sanders jumping up from FCS to FBS for not pursuing Sanders PUBLICLY. Retaining Seth Littrell in the foolish misguided hope that he would go beyond 0.500 vs FBS competition in year 6 was a low aspirational budget conscious decision. It communicated to me this program doesn't care to sell more tickets nor win. Only when have ridiculous nationally embarrassing outing does this program respond with minimal conventional competency, making staffing moves. We wouldn't be debating this level of idiocy any fanboard for a respectable program. Who brings back the WORST DC in all of FBS for year 2 and NOT fire the head coach who wanted to give him another chance when he fails in year 2? My donations will go strictly to the academic side of the house from now on. Long story short if Eric Morris performs in a underwhelming fashion Morris and Jared need to be gone.

      The long snapper had an injury a couple of games ago. I don't think it was serious, but it may have some effect on the recent FG issues.

      G5 Rep up to #4 in latest CFP

      Yet they are placing us there via their ranking committee. Regardless, Tulane boxing the truck stops out of the playoffs entirely would be a nice shiny bow on an already unbelievable year.
