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.

      I hope we lose to Temple

      This thread has some loser talk that rivals some of the legendary loser-talk threads on this board. I wanted Seth to beat UTSA even if it meant more Seth. I wanted them to win the CUSA title game even if it meant more. Do we want to win or to be right on the internet? I want them to win. I don't like mixing up Seth LIttrell's tenure and Eric Morris'. Morris, the admin, and the roster etc all made a mistake in trying to keep the good from the old and turn what was there into a winning team. Morris said he made that mistake. He had to change the entire roster. That had to wait a year. So we are essentially in year one. I've written a ton that the roster is filled with youth and underclassman. I see a lot of others have made this same point in this thread. It is true. Some of us gave money 15 years ago in the hopes of this or that but that doesn't mean you can turn a handful of freshman into AAC champions. Quinton Hammonds, Brian Nelson, Landon Sides, Wyatt Young, Mercer, even McGill are all contributors. It goes on and on. The dudes making freshman mistakes were well, freshman. The upperclassmen guys we needed to do some leading and carry things? Well Chandler Morris did that and a couple of DLmen, but a lot of others were hurt. Some just didn't produce. The foundations for next year begin in this recruiting cycle. Morris will discuss the signings on Dec 4 -- we'll know if he has some solid incoming guys. We know he can bring in talent. I like that they improved the DL for this season -- it was worse last year -- but they need more. They need more OL, too. They need more playmakers all along the defensive side. I put some of that on the last coaching staff. Seth had missed hard on defense for about 5 years. He rotated through a bunch of dudes with no luck. We had a patchwork defense with which Bennett did the best he could. The defense has been bad. Morris has made a move to change that. Whoever comes in -- I think we'll see a hire fairly quickly these next couple weeks -- will have a summer to find guys to plug in the holes -- DL, Linebacker, rush end. Is that enough? Dunno. Morris will be looking for experienced, play-making WRs I can tell you that. A Damon Ward who doesn't have the yips and can stay on the field.

      NIL alone doesn’t win. I honestly don’t know much about his coaching, but I have to think he’s pretty good. Benching your returning starter QB in favor of a redshirt freshman was a bold move, but it proved to be the correct one.

      Underrated win in my opinion. They're 3-4 but have just 1 bad loss. I say bad because I don't know much about Norfolk State. Otherwise UC Davis has the 11th ranked scorer in the country and could make some noise come conference play.

      My point is you will see more head coaches leave G5 teams for P5 coordinator gigs. In fact, I could see this happening with Morris. It used to be that a G5 head coaching posting would be more valuable to a coach and his family. I believe NIL and the portal has changed this.
