So does a player in red mean that they're really good?  They're really interested in UNT? Both?  Just trying to contain some of my excitement on a couple of these guys.

There is a key at the top of the page:

Players in red are Hot Prospects.

Players in green are 'strongly' Unofficially Committed to UNT.

Players in blue are 'strongly' Unofficially Committed to another school.

I appreciate the fact that we have 70 prospects but not overwhelmed by most of them. Those that have size do not have 1-A speed and those with good speed are not big for that position.

As much as we need size on the DL, I didn't see anyone that's big enough to play that has impressive speed. On the other hand, some of these 300+ pounders with 5.4 speed might make excellent offensive linemen.

Harry thanks for the update, keep'em coming as we have nothing else to follow now.

I guess I missed when NT dropped all sports but football. Must have happened since I got home from the SuperPit Saturday night.

Greyeagle since when does speed really matter all that much for a D-tackle? You're not going to see to many DT running a 4.8 40 at 300 lbs. And if they are their going to end up at UT.

By speed, I mean 4.9/5.0 range. I've watched Sky Pruitt, for example, fail to put pressure on the quarterback simply because he's too slow. Pressure needs to come (at least periodically) from the middle as well as the wings. There are exceptions, but usually linemen that are 5.3 and above aren't fast/quick enough to play effective defense imo.

Sky Pruitt didn't put pressure on the qb because he was way undersized. Do you really think that the extra .3 in 40 time is that important to a DT. When both your DT avg. 275 thats a problem. Hopefully Thomas is fully recovered and Raymond gets his grades in check, as they are both needed badly next year.

      How’s That Feel?

      No slight on Chandler Rogers, but I don't think everyone would just chase the biggest money. There are players who stay because of playing situation, personal situation, love of school or even (gasp) education. So far Rogers' decision doesn't look great, but the season's not over. Diego Pavia went to Vanderbilt of all places and he must be feeling pretty damn good now, aside from an epic hangover.

      Chandler Morris. Eric was only 15 at the time but he knew he'd need a quarterback someday.

      UAB's Big Screw Up

      Proof that it's not always the amount of money you spend. This gent is the ULM Def. Coordinator. His first year being a college DC. I would bet money that the DC at UNC makes at least $1 million. I'd also bet that every defensive position coach on Mack Brown's staff makes more than Earnest Hill does at ULM. Well, Mr. Hill and his staff shut down James Madison....a team that had scored 60+ points two games in a row. And put 70 on that UNC staff. Side note: Our former DC and assistant Troy Reffett is on the ULM staff, too: https://ulmwarhawks.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/earnest-hill/4193

      How’s That Feel?

      Who's really hating on him though? Whatever his reason for leaving is irrelevant to me. He's no longer on the team and I don't necessarily care for Cal though I'd have preferred they beat Miami. I don't want him to struggle, just indifferent. Did he ball out at times? Sure, in the second half of games. I think he was overall overrated otherwise. He dug us in holes against every decent opponent but he was fun to watch during those failed comeback attempts. He also fumbled far too often and it seemed like a couple throws were batted down ever single game. Still fun to watch. I think we upgraded but it's still too early to tell.
