Dude is a big time hitter

[emmitt01]

Wait a minute…you mean to tell me this guy turned down a chance to join the “Triangle of Toughness”??!  
 

I mean, if you ask some on this board, our staff NEVER beat out the roadkill for a recruit

Interesting that he didn't show up on our offer list, but it shows that he was offered on April 1st.

Lists offers from AR St., CO St., LA, Memphis, Missouri, TCU, TX Tech, Tulane, Utah, Utah State, and utsa.

Love his video.  Plays like someone slapped his dog.

**Note:  40% of our All-Time Commits have been Morris' commitments.  Love what this staff is doing.

Impressive commit.  Guy hits like a horse!

Wow, this guy can hit. He's not afraid of contact at all. I just had a flashback of seeing Derek Akunne hit opposing ball carriers. This is a great addition. Solid offer list as well. 

[Green Otaku]

Terrific pickup. Welcome aboard!

[GrayEagle]

With a composite rate of .8750, he joins our top rated players.  He has it all.

40% of every commit ever has occurred under Morris?

I'm just Joshin' ya, but honest request here: what did you mean? Morris has 4 of our top 10?

This dude has big time offers and phenomenal tape! Great pick up.

In BV's article, he mentions Coach O as the biggest reason why he chose UNT. We better look at paying Coach O a little more than the 65k we pay him now. His relationships are paying dividends.

247 lists our all-time commits, based on composite rating, at the bottom of their page. Number one is Riley Dodge, #2 is Jamario and so on. Four of the top ten are commits under Morris. 

[UNT Family Man]

Great commitment!! Now we need 4 OL and 3 DL of this caliber.

Decommits and commits to Texas St.

Hopefully, we will continue to improve on defense, or it will be tough to keep defensive commitments.

"Decommits and commits to Texas St".

Lord have mercy!  Lose a top commit to Texas State-San Marcos.  What did I tell you guys about Coach Kinn?

[jtm0097]

I'm hoping we hit the portal hard this off-season. I was impressed with his film, however I would rather have a few guys that can play right away. Our offense is so explosive that if we can shore up the defense, we will be in business next year.

Could be a number of factors involved here.  Might be he didn't like what he saw in our system, didn't like that a couple of young players have stepped up, Smith, Anderson and Starling, that are getting a lot of playing time, etc...  I always worry about losing commits and then a  year later I've forgotten about them.  We are going to be all right.

I also thought it might be a problem when he said the main reason he committed to us was Coach O.  He didn't say anything about the school, program, position coach, defensive scheme fitting his style, etc...

Early HS commits? Might be a waste of time.

How is this possible?  Did we lose our receipt????

[meangreenbob]

Honestly, can you blame him?

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.
