How many of you currently know an 18 or 17-year-old boy? They change their minds more often than a butterfly changes directions! He could have a girlfriend now that is going to SWTSU. He could have buddies that want him to join them there. There are any number of reasons completely unrelated to football that can and do cause people to change what school they plan to attend. 

There is also the sad fact that several "fans" here seem to enjoy commenting negatively about UNT football more than celebrating when things go well. 

P.S. All programs have players that get flipped, and as VideoEagle said, there are many reasons.

I'd be concerned if they tweeted something like "Dude's average but we have a hole to fill. Class shouldn't be too great but oh well..."

It’s the “who to”, not the why.

"Commits"....to what??? Changing their mind?

I quit paying attention to "Commits". Until they sign you don't know who you got..and then maybe.

If I was a high school senior and the football was better in San Marvelous I would go there simply bc of the rivers. We have to face the sad reality that for the first time in decades (maybe ever), the football is better there.

Honestly, can you blame him? 

Is this a real question?  
 

The University of North Texas or Texas State-San Marcos?   Yeah, I can certainly question his judgement.

A real question? Naw, I was just trying to see if I could hook ya Emmitt. Just kidding. 
😉

However, San Marcus is 30 miles from Austin. 49 from San Antonio and close to New Braunfels. Cool locations with lots to do. Texas St campus is not too bad either.  Good coach. Football team trending up. Sun Belt conference competitive and might be perceived by some as the top G5. 

But yes we are, say it Emmitt, North Texas, better than everyone else.

      Love me some Chico with the jet black Roy Orbison interim hair. For me Chico is like Creed. I'm not supposed to love them but I do. Coach Canales loved North Texas more than most alumni.

      Earth to GMG

      This world does not exist anymore. It used to, but not in the portal and NIL age of college football. If players cared about coaching staff stability they would not be transferring at the rate they are. If this thinking permeates our AD, then they need to look for a new line of work because that ship sailed. Seriously, how many 17-18 years olds sit down and review the contracts of the coaches to decide which offer to take? High school recruiting should be de-emphasized. It can't go away completely, but building a program through the high school ranks over multiple years no longer works. When recruiting high school players, I think the only "stability" play is academic stability. There are a lot of players that have the skill and ability to play D1 football, but won't make it to the next level. Hopefully they are smart enough to realize that. Sell them (and their parents!) on playing a sport they love and getting a solid education and degree while they do. That's why it's important to continue to improve the academic status of UNT. We're not going to be a Stanford, but improving 4-year graduation rates and tighter admission standards will help.

      AAC Trend - Year 2 of 5 Firings

      At this point in the football cycle, if you fire a coach then you throw away all the recruiting work being done for the following seasons. The portal opens up in just a few days, and most AAC schools build their next years roster in the transfer portal. How hard is it going to be for these programs to build rosters for next season if they dont have a head coach going into the transfer window?

      I hope we lose to Temple

      Remember how much we hated La Tech in the 90’s and ‘2000’s? How we mocked them for stupidly going from an Independent in the 90’s to wasting the mega bucks on travel in the WAC in the 2000’s, and their obnoxious fans coming here talking trash? Then 2012 happened…… https://coachad.com/news/did-louisiana-tech-really-turn-down-a-bowl-game/ They had elevated their program to the point that when they lost the last two conference games of the ‘12 season finishing 9-3, and ending as the nation’s #1 offense, they were so damn upset over it they chose, either directly or indirectly to not play ULM in the Independence Bowl. That announcement was the day I practically fell in love with their school and their program because to me it was the greatest stance on principle and accountability and a standard they felt they had set for themselves and held to. Since then, we’ve been there several times, you and me, and have seen how poor their athletics were funded all those years, which gained even more respect from this college athletics fan. That’s where I am as a fan and alumn of NT right now. Wishing we would set a standard, a high standard and stick with it. Rick
