Today's Houston Chronicle listed the top 5 area running back recruits. Two are listed as considering North Texas: 1. Remus Nembhard (who is also on the Chronicle top Texas 100 list) and who had 2,233 yards and 27 TD's his senior year as well as 1st team 4-A All-State and 2. Jerry Hughes (Fort Bend Austin) 6-2 215, who finished with 1412 yards on 214 carries for a 6.6 yard average.

I would love to see us get them both. UH and Hawaii are after Nembhard, while TCU, Baylor, Texas Tech and Tulsa are also after Hughes.

If he goes to Hawaii its only for the beach.

A running back in Hawaii is worse than a running back in Div III - obscure.

Do any of you have a link to the Houston or Dallas area Top 100 lists? I had tried to google it for the Houston Top-100; but no luck.

Thanks,

I think this is the list I saw in the DMN Sunday. I saw 1 that had UNT listed as a possible. I don't see that on the list now.

Local kid Jake Behning needs to be recruited by UNT. I know his dad, All American OL at Nebraska. Jake is smaller and faster then his dad was. Jake shows SMU and Texas Tech on his list.

Is it too late for Darryl to go across town to talk with him?

As long as the recruit has not signed a letter of intent, then it's not TO LATE.

Contact the Athletic Department and tell them about this kid.

Since it is painfully obvious that we have limitied resources avilavable for recruiting, I'd personally think that DD's and others recruiting time could be more wisely spent getting in 3 star O-linemen (can we get one? please??) and 3 star DTs rather than the position that we traditionally don't have much of a problem recruiting, our RBs. I have to think the majority of us would agree that is a MUCH MUCH bigger need area for us.

and the RB recruits will stop coming if they keep getting beat up behind the line on every play!

There were actually 3 of the top 5 rbs in Houston showing NT. The 2 mentioned before and another rb from Westside. I can't find the name but there was a 3rd. The thing that worries me about Remus is he is only 5'6, I usually don't worry about size but thats pretty small.

Jerry Hughes is a BEAST!! We need him here. He goes to my old school and my brothers currrent. He is big and fast, and dominated games.

I agree that Remus is too small to be an everydown back but he could be a fabulous kickoff returner, punt returner and/or third down back. Would love to see them both wind up here.

      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?

      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?
