I was simply making a joke...not getting pissed...simply a joke.

This is a "typical UNT/Denton Fan always finds something else to get pissed about" nothing...taking a stupid post intended humorous, and someone spinning it bad.

Sorry if I offended anyone with my harmless post <_<

It's not your fault you dont understand the world greatest game.

Big Dawg,

Go back to your trailer, eat a TV dinner, and watch Hee-Haw.

By the way Big Dawg. I dont think you get paid to call in "sick" and sit at home towatch the recruiting board all day.

I do believe I will forward this link to our boss.

Good Day Sir!!!!

From the DMN recruiting blog - [Trinity coach] Lineweaver praised the recruiting work of new North Texas coach Todd Dodge.

"Just Coach Dodge's name says a lot in the Metroplex," said Lineweaver. "He's established so much, and not just his job at Carroll High School but his camps there. He's a very good recruiter, and kids want to play for him."

I'm getting worried about Vizza. Usually a HS teams recruits will all sit down and sign at the same time, I think he's wavering (my opinion). Hopefully I'm wrong and if you ask my wife I usually am. I hope Vizza just has a big head and wants to be the cherry on top of this delicious recruiting class.

GO MEAN GREEN!!

Remember he has de-committed once (Nevada) so it wouldn't be something new to him ;)

Gentlemen, please, rest your sphincters.

Give Mr. Vizza time. Maybe he had a big test this morning. Maybe his school's fax machine is broke. All kinds of possibilities. Let's hold off accusing the kid of wavering or changing his mind or grand-standing until justified.

the fax machine worked just fine for his team mate.

I'm still leaning toward ego/grand-standing.

Dibrell was able to get his fax in from the same school so I would doubt that is the problem.

May not mean anything, but if you notice at the bottom of the blog, where they are keeping the runnig list of signees, there are two spots left on their chart.

Does this mean we have two spots left...1 for Vizza, and another for a unknown recruit?

Why would they leaveone blank slot...could have happened, but something that got me thinking...

I found this kind of interesting.......

If you go to Rivals and look at the NT recruits, it has them all signing a LOI except for Vizza.

Now, compare NT's list with the other Sunbelt schools. The other schools only have 1/2 of the recruits or less signed to a LOI so far.

Maybe Vizza is not abnormal in this instance. But, perhaps the other NT recruits just put out an effort to get the faxes in early.

It could also be that Rivals is updating the NT info faster than the other schools.

Or maybe its just the fact that this is a really big decision for an 18 year old... cut him some slack!

Point taken. Generally the biggest decision the starting quarterback for the state championship team has to make is which cheerleader do I want to ask out.

Over slept? Forgot it was signing day? Lost his pen? Arrested for speeding while on the way to fax his LOI ? Kidnapped by aliens? Waiting for a call from America Idol ?

I think meangreensports.com may have trumped all other Texas universities with the recruiting blog idea. I found a link to it on the DMN site and no other schools are mentioned having anything similar to provide almost instant updates (never mind the fact that he calls us Boise State).

PLUMM....have you been talking to Mr. McMahon about how you want UNT to emulate Boise State again??? :lol:

Kudos to the UNT athletic department!

Carroll kids get faxes in first

Southlake Carroll LB Justin Padron and DE Kyle Russo must be excited about continuing to play for coach Todd Dodge. They were the first North Texas recruits to fax their letters of intent this morning.

For more on The Next Boise State's recruiting class, check out the Mean Green athletic department's recruiting blog (is an actual link on Tim McMahon's blog).

Also, it looks like we're going to have one hell of women's soccer recruiting class....did TD help out on that too??? <_<

We have been receiving several questions regarding a particular prospect. Our quarterbacks coach Todd Ford has had contact with a prospect and is encouraged by what he has heard. Keep checking the Meangreensports.com for the latest in all recruiting updates.

What the hell does this mean???

Is this meaning that we are competing for this kid?

A recruiting day disaster?

I am absolutely sure that this means we are competing at the last minute for this guy - which to me is not a recruiting day disaster - it's just part of the game when you're going after top-rated talent.

Let's see how it goes - at least we have some drama added to the mix! ;)

That means that there's a problem with Vizza, but they're working it out. Think good thoughts!

It means people like us have been asking the athletic department about Vizza, and Coach Ford has contacted Vizza to see what is going on.

Yep.. sounds to me like some wavering.. could come down to the last minute on this one... fighting for a big piece of the puzzle down to the last second on signing day... that's the recruiting game, folks!

Considering the quality of football that UNT has produced the past 2 years, I can think of much less flattering comparisons some might make. I'll take it as a compliment, and look forward to forging our own identity in the near future.

      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?
