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'!

Keep telling these lies and the people on this board will make it fact.

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.

      Now 48-18. Honestly, this is about as frustrating as it can be for those of us that think the league deserves more respect. I get worried that the data/committee hangs their hats on these losses, rather than look at all the mid-P5 wins we accumulate. Then, when selection weekend rolls around and one or two of us Americans are on the bubble, we get knocked out of discussion in favor of some 0.500 P5 squad.

      Kinda OT, but can someone talk about what Hodge does from an x-and-os standpoint? Curious on both sides of the court. The past 5 years work has removed me from nerding out on the game as much as I used to. You don't see as many coaches from the Iba/Knight trees anymore, side effect being I don't know how these current coaches think about the game.

      In terms of difficulty, I think this team will be closer to SDSU than it is to St. Bonaventure. This will be tough and would be a good win for us. Likely Q2 but a chance of bring Q1 at a neutral site. They have wins at Minnesota and home against Oregon St. ( Oregon St. just played Oregon to 3pts in a battle down the stretch. By all accounts, we got handled by Oregon.) This will have great test for our guards to stay under control. We have seen stretches where Drake and even Mason have struggled with TOs. We need to handle the pressure. We should have the numbers to stay fresh so they need to stay high focus high intensity when they are on the floor. Hoping Ian is feeling better today. We could use him for sure. The tallest they play is 6’9”(3x players) and have 2x 6’1” guards who play a lot of minutes. Would love to see Mason use his strength and exploit those smaller guards as well as Drake and Ian would also be quite a bit taller than them. Fish, Templin and Gateretse should find opportunities this game and maybe even some time for Isaac Davis to use his strength. I think Akanno might have another good game here as well. We need to have to them struggle against our defense and break out for easy baskets, make the game go our way rather than being bogged down attacking their set defense. Also, I think our bigs run the floor much better than their 6’9” 245lb center and we should be able to find some easy baskets if we break out quick like we like to do. I think it will be tough sledding initially until we can calm down and figure out their defensive pressure, then I think we see us separate mid 2nd half and we take the lead for good.
