Defensive backfield gets help from freshmen

11:39 PM CDT on Wednesday, August 10, 2005

By BRETT VITO / The Dallas Morning News

DENTON – Three of UNT's incoming freshmen who played at least part time on offense in high school opened spring practice by working with the Mean Green's defensive backs.

Korey Washington played quarterback at Cedar Park, and Desmond Chatman was a running back at Conroe. Dominique Green played wide receiver and defensive back as a senior at Lawton (Okla.) Eisenhower.

UNT returns only one starter from its defensive backfield in senior cornerback T.J. Covington.

Briefly ...

Freshman Eddrick Gilmore worked with UNT's tight ends on the first day of practice. Gilmore was considered a college prospect as both a tight end and defensive end during his senior year at Alief Hastings. ... Former Sanger standout Chris Higgs, the younger brother of UNT safety Cliff Higgs, has joined the Mean Green as a walk-on.

[bUT STILL......I JUST DON'T GET IT?!?!? blink.gif BECAUSE.......NORTH TEXAS has an all time football series record of 13 W's--5 L's--3 ties versus the Miners of UTEP. They hire a known coach ("2" years ago) with not the best reputation in the NCAA; go from being ranked as low as in the high 90's last year in some pre-season college football rags to getting a Top 24 ranking from one of those this summer; we go to 4 bowl games in a row and can't (at this point) sniff the Top 25 (1 or 2 schools in the MAC have in some pre-season rankings this summer).

So I'm confused [what's new?smile.gif] with all this. Anyone have any answers? Is it facilities? Stadium? Attendance? Is it that they have more fans who are not just talkers but do-ers (with their donations to the Miner Club or Foundation and at the turnstiles)? And no, I am NOT jealous of UTEP because I think NT has a the better upside longterm). rolleyes.gif Insert KTCK 1310 "The Tickets" drop: "Help me, man?" Why? unsure.gif
