If we beat Temple, will our guys stick around for the incredible Frisco Bowl swag or will they jump quick.  😂

Hard not to believe a mass exodus is coming.

I don’t think we have very many players that other teams want. 

Obviously Chandler Morris. But his stock is not near as high as it was. 

DT Sheffield will certainly get offers for more than we can pay him, but NO ONE is breaking the bank for a 5’8 slot receiver. Now, if Sheffield was 6’1, could play outside and was this productive he’d be backing up the money truck. 

Our freshman center will get offers, but not as many as he would get if he waited another year. 

And on defense? Take ‘em.

I’m predicting a lot of change. 

JayD and Miles mentioned it on their podcast, keep a few of our returners on defense and hope the new DC brings some of his current players.  

Not sure what we do on offense.  Need to keep C4 to try and help recruit some players from the portal. Build some OL depth.

Seems since DT put the "For Sale" sign out his performance level went down.....pre-mature gloat?

That’s why EM spent $1M on recruiters. Let’s see their magic and earn their paychecks.

I’m still waiting for Coach O to show us the receipts he kept

Chandler Morris isn't going anywhere.  UNT is the perfect spot for him.

Man, I forgot about this... talk about writing a check you can't cash.

He blocked me for asking him

Chandler is fine.  He just needs to check down to a lower gear than 'warp speed" sometimes.

As long as it’s more transfers than freshmen. I want guys that can already play

The dislike for Coach O is incredible and this just shows what type of fans we truly have. His job is to get interaction with high school players and coaches and he's done a better job of that than anyone in the history of this school. His job is to get them looking at us and willing to talk to the school and that is happening.

Is there a portal for coaches? Asking for a friend.

And camps.  Just from Twitter, people claim it’s highly attended, organized, and well run.  At the very least, it gets kids on campus and further develops a relationship with the kid/families/coaches.  He’s been a positive for UNT.
