NT has received its first two committments from JC FB players according to the the Fort Worth Star Telegram

Ray Loren, Coffeyville DB 6-1, 195 from Overland Park KS, Soph Stats: 33 unassisted tackles, 12 assisted tackles for a total of 45. credited with 1.5 sacks and 1 tackle for a loss. He was HM all Conference in the Jayhawk Conference. We had narrowed the DB position down to 4 possible players and Loren was one of the four.

TE Brian Carlson, Kilgore College, 6-5, 255. Soph stats: 6 receptions for 40 yards with a 20 yard longest. Obviously used primarily as a blocker.

I feel good about both of these signings, especially if Loren can play corner at all.  From what I'm reading in the MGR the tight end signing may be the bigger news of the two though.

It was noted in another thread that Chaney had left the team. Is this correct? If so, this is a good pick up. Have the coaches considered moving Harmon to D-End? He's a big kid, pretty athletic, but doesn't have very good hands to be playing tight end.

In the past, they have played him in OL. They may choose to do that since it's a position that he has played in the past.

We have one more commitment, but the name has not been released yet.

I'll officially nickname him "Big 3" for now. ph34r.gif

He weighs 270. He is coming in for more help blocking. Charlie is still a little on the light side. Carlson will come in and basically be an extra linemen. He almost outweighs some of our starting linemen and does outweigh some reserves. I think it was an excellent pickup that will help improve the running game.

I can't wait to see who is next! How many ints and pass breakups did Carlson have this past year. And do we know how many years of eligibility these two have?

Brian Carlson is a TE doesn't play defense as far as I know. He will primarily be a blocker not a receiver but did catch 6 passes for 40 yards.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      You mean the playbook that famously can be drawn out on a napkin?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
