Are we seeing a trend emerge with UNT’s new basketball staff?

[Harry]

UNT picked up another commitment under new head coach Tony Benford late this week when Anthony Norris decided to play for the Mean Green after one final year at Midland College.

What is interesting about Norris is that he is a player with a high ceiling, one he has yet to reach. Norris is 6-7 combo forward who can shoot the ball and play on the wing.

Those guys don’t grow on trees.

There is a reason Norris was committed to Memphis before he had a few bad months on the summer circuit and ended up back on the market.

By all accounts, Norris has a ton of talent, and he just so happens to be family friends with Benford and assistant coach Rob Evans. All three of from the basketball hotbed of Hobbs, N.M.

Benford will likely have six spots in his next recruiting class.

Taking Norris was about as big a no-brainer in recruiting as one is ever going to see.
