Yes, but they had Tomlin in the mix and didn't have Jenkins or Hollivay; maybe others.

as close to accurate or inaccurate as predictions for classes may be we will find out by the end of december who did better. i was impressed with last year's class of recruits that t.d. aquired in the three weeks that he had to recruit. when was the last time UNT landed eight three-star recuits in one year?

When was the last time a school took 13 players in one class to play DB or WR

The number one recruiting class in the country took 13: http://rivals100.rivals.com/commitlist.asp...08&School=2

You recruit according to need. We are progressing from a low-scoring run-based offense to a high-octane passing offense that requires more receivers.

And if you watched any of our games last year, I'm sure you saw that we needed speed in the defensive backfield.

It's all about speed if you don't have it go get it.

With all the speed we seem to be getting does anyone think we'll move to a 3-3-5 defense in the future?

I don't know about that, but I would definitely see us making use of nickel packages more extensively--I don't remember us ever using one last year.

It's amazing how differently the two services rate/rank. MTSU is at #100 on Scout, but #65 on Rivals!

Good thing the 3 credit scoring agencies don't work the same way.

*chuckle*

No, MTSU seems to beat us every year, but it always comes down to the coaching to really determine who had the best recruiting results.

But did they really beat us every year................because most of our * star * (ed) signees were (and are) Texas High School Football (gol' darn, I like the sound of those 4 words); anyway, they were products of the best damn high school football in the USA!

Yes, in deed, most of our signees were products of THSF and, uh, sorry, MUTS, but yalls were/are not.

Remember all those years when yall won those ridiculous "sexy" titles by some Southern Dummy media-types?, You know, back in those days when yalls "caca 'stanketh not" and all that other hullaballooley? Well, just who was it that kept beating yall when things were on the line? (OK, darn it, I give DD his due with those wins); BUT...........just who was it that kept winning those important matchups? Well.. wasn't it the team in green (the ones with all our players not as highly ranked as yalls Tennessee plow boys who somehow are born with "media-produced" 2 stars before they even play their first game of pee-wee football)...........

............ yet it was still the team in green that seemed to prevail all those years, right?.

...now, lets see what we, ie, UNT can do with some pedigreed classes (such as this year's class according to some recruiting services) and hopefully we continue such on an annual basis (instead of just one nicely ranked class to live our next 4 years on).

It's All Green &...It's All Good!(right FFR)?

I am a big fan of the the phrase "It's Al Green and it's all good." He is such a great singer.

:lol:

Well, old school R & B Al Green is a favorite of many but it was that other phrase which was coined by Mean Green Super Fan FFR. Fellow Parker County-ite "Fire-Fighter" just lets me borrow that phrase from time to time, that's all.

Agreed. Anyone who doesn't love the Reverend is nobody I want to know.

TTG, Reverend Al wrote one of my favorite Glen Frey solos of all time (well, maybe my own all time list for Frey, that is) with Green's "True Love." I have a super karaoke CD+G disc of that Frey hit with background vocals that sound almost like Frey's original hit.

Sorry, now back to topic...

HOW 'BOUT THOSE MEAN GREEN! :D

Just remember all that offense is great but if you look at last year we needed to stop a few people. Defense wins championships and RV and TD need to be sure that DeLoach gets what he needs. When you score in a hurry the big guys have to play more and they get tired.

Two words - Alonzo Horton.

Plus the crop of athletes the staff brought in to play CB and Safety...Very impressive.

Agreed but we need some more folks to stop them before they get into the secondary. Not good news when corners are your leading tackerlers and not Linebackers. We scored a lot of points in some games last year and it turned out in most to not be enough. The greatest addition to the Mean Green this year is not a player but Coach DeLoach.

      First College Net Rankings released

      😂 I hate revisiting the records and specific games of that era cause it was all such a train wreck. Still should be discussed from time to time when some of our fanbase gets restless with wanting to take the next step as a program. Trying to cement ourselves as a perineal Top 50 program is tough but we’re on the right track. I remember years back @TheTastyGreek putting into perspective how tough achieving a Top 25 ranking in hoops was relative to FBS football back in the day. Too lazy to go dig that up but it really highlighted how difficult it is generally speaking and then layer in what you’re describing above - what UNT has had to overcome from a performance and program perception standpoint.

      Seth loses OU gig

      Oklahoma hired Washington State’s Ben Arbuckle — just 29 — to be its new offensive coordinator yesterday. He takes over for the fired Seth Littrell, whose offenses sputtered in the Sooners’ first SEC season. Meanwhile, Florida Atlantic picked Texas Tech offensive coordinator Zach Kittley, just 33, to replace Tom Herman as head coach. -The Athletic Plus

      If Eric Morris wins a bowl game, will you forgive his past sins?

      I’ll never understand the mental gymnastics some on here do to justify this underperformance? We fired Seth after a Conference USA title game appearance- justifiably - so we would get someone to take the NEXT step that was elusive for his regime. Now we’ve got people making excuses for wasting the first year of Morris’ tenure by mis-reading the personnel that he judged to be “AAC title contenders” and then flopping. Didn’t use the portal well enough to beef up glaring deficiencies. Then brings back the worst, yet somehow highest compensated G5 DC in America for year 2 which led to an inevitable firing that even the most casual of football fans could see coming from a mile away before the season even started. The 2nd year performance was predictable as well, but extra dissapointing given the soft schedule 5-1 start. To end up 6-6 is nearly unforgivable. We’d better win this upcoming Bowl game.

      First College Net Rankings released

      like how we finished 8-22 in Benford's last season and had a final ranking of 299?? at the time we were a few spots below a couple hospital teams, Detroit Mercy & Sacred Heart. now we're three back of UT https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/seasons/men/2017-ratings.html

      Agreed. But we can all also agree that this is a great jumping off point for UNT in NET. A quality indicator of the program’s overall progress since Grant first arrived. We’ve come a LONG way from the Benford era.
