"All the drama" I think that phrase has been used with Berglund more than any player in last 5 years. Maybe he'll actually play at JC so we can see if he's worth the hype.

Might not be his choice.. grades or transfer credit might be an issue.. The other question iis he enrolling in the summer or fall? Might be a last ditch effort to make transfer requirements while allowing him the chance to play JC if he can't..

I would be leery of saying that this is a done deal or he made a fool of himself.

Summer school has begun. Before embarking on his dog and pony show he should have known what his prospects of transferring/qualifying were, instead of wasting the time and effort of a number of universities. Maybe he's hoping to improve his stock to attract the interest of a AQ school, but either way, I'd be done with him.

Well, interesting. And, the kid and his family, seem to me, to be making a quality decision. UNT, if it keeps up with him during this next year, may well have a shot after he gets his 2-yr degree from Scottsdale. His reported grades while at Kansas seem plenty good enough. Now, the question is...what happened to the compliance folks at Kansas to let this sort of thing happen? Don't they monitor hours and course loads? Hmmm...maybe he left the program (however or whatever) and that let his academics up to him...I have no clue about that. But, as Vito pointed out...seems like a good kid. UNT would perhaps be a nice spot for him after JuCo.

It may be that the folks at UNT knew this all along and were just hoping he's sit out a year and sign with UNT and get the class thing in order. Who knows.

BUT, make no mistake about it. UNT is going into the season with a fine QB in young Mr. Thompson. I have no worries (other than injuries) regarding the QB spot.

Yep, Coach Mac and company can now look elsewhere to sign a QB for UNT. Appreciate the "rest of the story" from Brett.

Good luck to this kid.....

Time for us to move on. If we are going after this guy again when he finishes with his 2 year degree, I'll be disappointed in our recruiting efforts. I'd hope we will have a quality QB already here or on his way. I don't want to still be in need of a future QB down the road.

neither did the cash his family got to get him to auburn...

So you're saying he played at a BCS school? This same (non) story would have occurred had he signed with Florida State, Michigan, Texas, Notre Dame.....

I don't think we have a shot at this kid. He didn't pick a JC in Texas, he picked a JD in Arizona. I seem to orecall he took a recruiting trip to Arizona St or Arizona after visiting UNT and FIU. I would be shocked if he didn't end up on that roster after his JC season.

To try and recruit the kid again, after he is done with JC, would make us look bad. We shouldn't be in need of him by then. We need to move on and find another QB. A better QB. I'm sure that is what Mac and the staff are out there doing. Looking for someone else that fits what we are doing here.

      Finishing Out the '25 Class

      Please keep in mind that it looks like shortly they will be changing the roster limits and the amount of players eligible to be put on scholarships. I believe then you will have to keep the minimum of 85 but you will be able to go higher if you choose but with a lower total number of players that can be in the program.

      Finishing Out the '25 Class

      Thank you for this insightful recap Billy.

      Finishing Out the '25 Class

      1. I have us at about 80 scholarship players. This count does not include Makenzie McGill who we almost assuredly need to put on scholarship to keep, and Evan Jackson who deleted his transfer portal post and hasn’t posted anything since. Also does not include high school commit Terrence Lewis who still seems in line to sign in February. That being said, we probably could sign a few more HS guys this February. We have space and likely will have more space after spring to bring in more portal guys this summer if needed. 2. Probably will have a better idea on this after spring when we have a better idea of where we still are weaker than we want to be. We have pretty good numbers at each position. 3. There definitely will be more transfers after spring but pure speculation on who. Larry Moore appears to be passed over at tackle, and I doubt he wants to spend his last season of eligibility on the bench. Same for VJ Bronson at DT. At safety I don’t expect Isheem Young to come back but I could be wrong. He came here because of Caponi and we seem to have been recruiting that position as if he isn’t coming back. BJ Allen at safety looks like he is in danger of getting passed up by multiple guys so he could be better off looking elsewhere for more playing time. I think Zach Evans is similarly buried on the depth chart. I‘d be surprised if any of those 5 guys were still here after spring. Those are 5 spots I pretty much expect to open up just based on guys who are sort of the odd men out at their spots, but looks like they’ll be here through spring to have a chance to carve out bigger roles.

      SMU 's New Facility

      Many people on this board, constantly talk about competing with SMU. We should also pay attention to what TCU and other programs are doing, so we have a bar to set for ourselves. Ignoring the competition, gets us where we are now.
