@emmitt01 and I saw Jayven play in the past two state championships.  This will be a phenomenal get for us if he signs.

I’m interested in the “how”

What a great way to finish our signing class.

I could see Anderson growing into a KD Davis type playmaker at LB for our new defense. With his speed and athleticism, he could be an absolute monster.

2022 Highlights

I think I counted 4 or 5 Pick-6's in that highlight reel. Most kids can't pull 4 or 5 Pick-6's in their entire playing career, let alone 1 season. What an incredible addition.

We are a quality school with a lot to offer.  Maybe our new coaching staff has finally found a way to communicate that.

I don't want to put too much pressure on him (although I believe that he could handle it) but I believe that Jayven Anderson just might be our best defensive recruit since Mean Joe Greene.  I hope that we publicize the hell out of his accomplishments.  He could very well be a starter from Day 1, since (I believe) we've lost both starting safeties.  I think that he is a safety because, even with the loss of our best linebacker in several years, that is still a stronger position than safety.  We welcome you Jayven to what was formerly referred to as the P6 conference.  We thank you for selecting us.  It is players like you that can help us get to the next level.  I like the "family" look that seems to be developing among this coaching staff and players.  I think that you will like this university.

This times 1000!!   We finally have a staff that is not satisfied with taking what comes to us.  We finally are selling our strengths.  I will say Seth never complained pubically but he did not elevate our recruiting to be in line with our assets.  We have a LOT to sell at UNT.

I wasn't aware that Seth had pubic issues to complain about, maybe that explains his demeanor at times.

I like this one.    I think Jayven breaks fall camp in the 2 deep this year.

We don’t need to think… He needs to break the 2 deep… when you’re as “highly ranked” as he is, he needs to come in and make an impact.

This take needs to be addressed, as good as it is for the kid, the ratings really don't mean anything in terms of ability.  Just some predictions as to their success probability at the next level, and beyond.   Once he steps foot on campus no one in that LR will give 5 bags of dog**** what he was rated or who offered him out of HS.  They will be working to take the starting job, his job, or help the team compete to be in a position where they can win games.  

 

Don't get me wrong I am ecstatic that he is joining UNT and I believe he'll be a phenomenal safety for us.  Just don't want people assuming because he is highly rated means he automatically jumps in and has to contribute.

This dude is an absolute stud.  He was my #1 want in this class.

Ditto for me.  It would not surprise me if he starts as a freshman.
