It has to be. I doubt our 5th string RB pulled a scholarship offer from an SEC school

I don’t know, the “#1 recruiting class” didn’t help them win so maybe North Texas 5th string is the new strategy

Congrats Preston, best of luck, Aggies are getting a good one.

For us he was a true freshman who had been 3rd team all-state at the 6A level. Because of our running back depth he only played in one game, against TSU, where he carried 8 times for 60 yards and a touchdown averaging 7.5 yards per carry.

1:25 mark

Adaway, Ayodei, Farrar, Jackson, Johnson, and Ragsdale are ahead of Landis, so he was technically 7th string. Can't blame him for trying another place.

Johnson from Lubbock Cooper but your point stands.

Blame Seth for not giving him more opportunities.

I can’t fault Seth or Cobbs for this one. He was a true freshman walkon while they had 5-6 scholarship players in front of him. We rotated 4 regularly that could all start at just about any other G5 school. We have an embarrassment of riches at the running back position and that is something that Seth and Cobbs should get praise for, not blame for.

We had an embarrassment of riches at the beginning of the season, but we were basically down to 2.5 RB's by the bowl game. Ragsdale, Johnson, and a not-100% #39. Landis could have been part of the rotation.....if he was healthy.

They did give him a lot of carries during spring practice.

      Rule Changes to NCAA Football

      If I am not mistaken, the NFL deducts sack yardage from passing stats. It may give a more accurate picture of rushing and passing offense. It doesn’t change total offense.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      As in, right now? If a school leaves and we need a replacement, I see them as a solid candidate. But I don't think we need to add them just to add them.

      I think they would be a solid addition and a fun road trip for both us, Rice and nUTSAck.

      Rule Changes to NCAA Football

      Hate thinking that we need more rules but something they have to address is the players that are faking injuries bro slow down the momentum of another team and the ones that are just straight out flopping onto the ground to try and get a penalty thrown against the other team.

      Mean Green Host Rice Wednesday Night

      DENTON – The UNT men’s basketball team hosts American Athletic Conference undefeated Rice Owls Wednesday night at the Super Pit. The Mean Green (10-4, 1-1) and Owls (11-4, 2-0) are scheduled to tip-off at 8 p.m. CT. The game will be broadcast on the Mean Green Sports Network, presented by Learfield and on ESPNU. UNT has won the last two meetings against Rice and eight of the last 10. Wednesday will be the first time the two teams have played in Denton since 2023. The Owls are under the leadership of veteran head coach Rob Lanier who is in his first season as Rice’s head coach after serving as SMU’s head coach from 2022-24 where last year he led the Mustangs to a 20-win season and split their series against North Texas. Lanier also served as the head coach at Georgia State (2019-22) and Siena (2001-05). Rice enters Wednesday’s game having won its first two league games of the year. They opened with a 70-64 road win over Tulsa on New Year’s Day and a 68-55 home win over Charlotte on Saturday. After Wednesday night’s game the Mean Green have a six-day break before facing East Carolina on the road on Jan. 14.
