Not only does Tulsa not care who knows what players they are going after, they also show which coach is responsible for bringing that player in for a visit (you have to click page 2 for that information).

It looks like about half of the players that they are going after are here in the metroplex.

Noticed that they signed a O-linemen who is listed at 230. There is such a premium on the beef that it seems most schools are having to go after the smaller guys with good footwork and bulk them up.

True, but that OL is 6'5", so I would assume that he has the frame to add much more weight. NT's 230 lbs. line recruits are all 5' 10" to 6'!

Screaming? Sorry, but you have no idea about what my reaction would be. This is about how one program is much more open with their fans than ours.

However, I will say this. If DD had had the same season that the Tulsa coach has had, then I would assume that the players that he was going after were going to be tough, smart, and disciplined. The size issue would work itself out.

They're probably walk-ons. There's a TON of turnover with walkons, so they'll oftentimes get lost in the shuffle.

They're much more likely to be up on the website than on a printed media.

UNT's nonexistant or poor showing in the Top 100 lists takes a greater toll on our image to recruits and alumni than losing a couple announced recruits to theft.

The list I see shows Rice, U-h, SMU and UNT with 0

TCU and UTEP with 1

The starting five the last couple of games averaged 6-3 1/2 and 288 pounds. By today's standards, that's definitely below average for Division 1-A.

The player left off of the list was the lightest starter, Joel Foster, who only weighs 268. Lineberry was the only 300 pound starter and also was considered our best lineman.

If they should happen to move (the JUCO All-American) Stanley to center next year, it's possible that he could be the only sub-300 pounder in the starting line next year. The guards and tackles MIGHT be Lineberry, Venegas, Brown and Banks and would be our heaviest line ever. However, the second string line would be light, with three @ 285 or less.

I noticed that this years All-American team has a center who is 6'3" X 285. I think we could get by with a 285lb center.

I just hope that most of our O-lineman and all of our D-lineman spend a great amount of time in the weight room during the off season.

By the way, if a team that recruits 230 lb. linemen can beat us by 50, I hope that they don't decide to go big.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
