Boone Feldt Commits to UNT

MeanGreenGlory · August 1, 2011

"Feldt is the 11th ranked center in the country and is familiar with the area."

Here are some highlights:

Huge get.

Very exciting to see this. Feldt was offered by Houston, La Tech, and Texas State, and had camped at TCU and taken unofficials to Tech.

This staff--now armed with a new facility--are going to start bringing in the crops. Awesome!

Vito....Not to be pedantic, but as someone who lives in Kyle, I can assure you there is no such High School as "Buda Hays".

Great news! Watched Boone at Pilot Point, and at FNL on Friday, he's a great looking prospect. His feet are incredible, and he's relentless. Love getting the two Feldt boys on board as they are top tier lineman. I believe Cam was the 8th best Tackle coming out, and now Boone the 11th best Center ( and dad was an undersized workhorse lineman for Tech back in the day). These are an entirely different echelon of player than we have been able to get.

The first time I got to sit down with McCarney before he was introduced at the press conference he made no bones about it that there were a lot of things to fix, but that the offensive and defensive lines and fixing the defense all together would be top priorities.

A fully armed and operational facility ...

Boone is a man amongst boys in those videos. He is definitely the poster child for "finishing the play". In the videos he burys every defender he was up against.

It just keeps getting better and better! WOW...great get!

GO MEAN GREEN!

golfingomez · August 1, 2011

the game is won in the trenches, and it appears McCarney knows this better than most... building a solid offensive line is a great way to build a program.

this is awesome

Nothing makes me happier then seeing us pick up quality linemen. Games are won in the trenches. Skill players a flashy, but if this program is going to turn the corner and compete at a higher level, it must continue to draw players equal to the Feldt brothers on the offensive and defensive lines.

Great job. So far, this is turning into a great recruiting season.

Welcome Boone.

Good grief, he is destroying his man is those videos.

The great news that started with basketball recruiting has continued to football. Great pick up! Proud to be green today (and everyday)

UNT Mean Green · August 1, 2011

Just an FYI, but Boone is the #9 Center in the country by ESPN

Zeke · August 1, 2011

This is a huge acquisition in my opinion.

Harry · August 1, 2011

Well many believe and I include myself in this camp that center Andy Brewster was the glue that led to 4 consecutive SBC Championships. JJ Johnson has been a good one as well. You build good programs on the lines and I am thrilled to know we will have 3-4 years with the Feldt brothers.

It's a good time to be green.

Vito....Not to be pedantic, but as someone who lives in Kyle, I can assure you there is no such High School as "Buda Hays".

That's just what they call it so people have a better grasp of where it is located. Yes it is called Jack C. Hays High School but Rosenberg Terry is actually called B.F. Terry High School. They probably refer to Lehman with a reference to Kyle too.

BTW, I'm a resident of B-YOO-DAH. I'm going to convince myself that my wearing UNT gear around Buda was the reason that the Feldt brothers came to UNT. You don't see any SMU or Cougar gear around so I guess I'm the only one who wears anything that isn't UT down here.

GreenAlums · August 1, 2011

No kidding! He starts and finishes the play....and strangely enough.....I saw no holding calls.

foutsrouts · August 1, 2011

Great to have a couple of big-time locally raised brothers to build that OL around. Wonder if Boone decided to come on board after hearing that cousin Pat had been chosen to open up the new stadium?

AndersonUNT · August 1, 2011

seems like those people in Austin had their eye on him

GMG!

Green2012 · August 1, 2011

Great pickup. JJ is by far the most knowledgeable and leader of our current O-line. Great to see we got a competent center to fill in the spot after JJ is done. Dmac is absolutely rolling in recruiting right now. I'm already excited about this year. Now I'm getting excited about next. When does football start!?

Yeah, I get it. It's just I don't recall ever hearing Buda Hays before like I have with say Austin Bowie or Killeen Ellison. It just sounds weird to my ears (as does Kyle Lehman). Anyway, great to get a kid like this.

I was thinking the same thing.
