New Football Signee

NT signs new player. Can't get link to work but it is from Austin Statesman.

Akins High senior Knockus Sashington has signed to play football at the University of North Texas.

Sashington, who played as a wide receiver and cornerback, was named Offensive Player of the Year and first team All-District. He also played basketball and ran track, and is graduating in the top 25 percent of his class.

“We are looking for young men who are committed to bring the best they can be in all areas of their lives,” said University of North Texas Head Coach Todd Dodge in his letter to Sashington. “We strongly feel that you will make a huge impact in our program on the field and in the classroom.”

Second Team All-District Cornerback...caught 33 passes on offense as well...had a 96-yard KO return.

Like it. Stick him on the defensive side of the ball, please.

He's definitely already in the running for the all-conference best name team.

Sounds like a good under the radar player.

I was wondering if the links would be to the Onion...

Second Team All-District Cornerback

Yeah, but he was 1st team all-district WR! Since he played both offense and defense, conditioning shouldn't be a problem. He participated in the long jump and 200M relays, so he's fast, but I'd like to know just how fast. I can't find any 40 timings on him.

I'm betting he'll redshirt this year, unless he's just an amazing returner.

Kokain Mothershed will always be at the top of the all-time name list:
