Layne Taylor asserted himself as one of the best passers in the high school game this summer. After visiting Central Arkansas last month, the 5-foot-9 floor general by way of Farmington (Ark.) Taylor has scheduled his second official visit of the summer with Chattanooga and will arrive on campus this evening.

In addition to the Mocs, Taylor has also scheduled official visits Montana State and North Texas.

North Texas: "Phil Forte played at Oklahoma State and was a smaller guard like me. I think he would be awesome to play for because he plays a little bit like myself and has been through the same things I will go through in college. I like the coaching staff and fit."

The 5-foot-11 Taylor averaged 26 points per game a year ago to go with 5.6 assists, 4.8 rebounds, 2.4 steals and drew 14 charges. He also shot 81 percent from the free-throw line and has scored 2,404 points in his career. But the one thing he's done throughout his high school career is win. Taylor enters his senior year with an 89-9 career record.

For fun, I'd love to hear about other student-athletes that came through UNT from a coaching family.  Coach's sons/daughters.

How many can you name? I'll start with an easy one: Riley Dodge.

There has to be more.  @SilverEagle?

Jason Mills, Derek (sp?) LeBlanc, Kason Martin

Hopefully Chandler Morris in the fall

      Arkansas State (3/23/25)

      DENTON, Texas – Sun Belt Conference regular season co-champion and tournament runner-up Arkansas State surrendered a game-winning shot with 1.1 seconds left in a 65-63 defeat at North Texas in the second round of the 2025 National Invitation Tournament (NIT) on Sunday evening. The No. 3 seed in the Dallas Region, the Red Wolves (25-11) competed in their fifth NIT all-time and first since 1991. Arkansas State’s 25 wins are the most in a season in program history. Junior forward and All-Sun Belt Third Team selection Izaiyah Nelson led four Red Wolves scorers in double figures with 16 points and 14 rebounds for his 10th double-double of the season. Redshirt senior forward Kobe Julien added 15 points, while senior guard and All-Sun Belt First Team choice Taryn Todd scored all 12 of his points in the second half to go along with five assists to no turnovers, as junior guard Derrian Ford chipped in 10 points. North Texas (26-8) never trailed in the contest despite three ties including the final one at 63-all after a layup by Todd with 10 seconds remaining. The Mean Green held the final shot, as Jasper Floyd made a drive to the right of the basket, stopped, turned and sank a fadeaway jumper with one second left. Floyd and Latrell Jossell scored 18 points apiece to lead North Texas which shot 25-for-57 (.439) overall. Arkansas State shot 24-for-65 (.365) overall and 8-for-27 (.296) from 3-point range while owning a 30-26 scoring edge in the paint and a 12-3 advantage off turnovers. North Texas outscored the Red Wolves, 27-16, off the bench. https://sunbeltsports.org/news/2025/3/24/mens-basketball-arkansas-state-drops-heartbreaker-to-north-texas-in-nit-second-round.aspx

      Oklahoma State Hosting North Texas Tuesday In NIT Quarterfinals

      Meanwhile, the Mean Green (26-8) also advanced in dramatic fashion, nipping Arkansas State 65-63 on Sunday night in Denton, Texas, when Jasper Floyd sank a turnaround jumper with two seconds left. The shot capped a fine all-around effort for Floyd, who finished with 18 points, five rebounds and four assists. "We were able to make one more play at the end," said North Texas coach Ross Hodge. "That's usually what it comes down to this time of year." North Texas finished second in the American Athletic Conference behind Memphis but lost in the AAC semifinals to UAB, dropping it into the three-letter tournament. Drake transfer Atin Wright leads the Mean Green in scoring at 14.9 ppg but managed just three points on Sunday night. They play at a slow tempo, averaging just 68.2 ppg, but are good on free throws (77.4 percent) and 3-pointers (36.0 percent). North Texas stopped Oklahoma State in the NIT quarterfinals two years ago in Stillwater on its way to the tournament title.
