Wow I just put 2 & 2 together and realized I have a cousin who went to school with his older brother, I forgot that he had a little brother or maybe just had a temporary brain lapse. From what I hear, we got a really really good commitment here. This kids work ethic is apparently second to none.

Just that while it looks like well over 300 lbs. if it were metal weights, rubber weights weigh much less than metal ones. So it would be much less weight was the point I was trying to make.

Rubber weights are made in the same increments. Those are 45-pound plates.

45lb rubber plates look like the 100lb metal plates. They come in the same weights, but the rubber ones look like you are lifting alot more than you really are.

I've used rubber plates many times before and in different places, and they've always been the same size as the all-metal plates.

Olympic lifts are done with rubber weights, and this is an Olympic lift. As for the actual weight, different weighted rubber plates (25 vs 45, for example) are all the same size, so you can't automatically say that 3 plates = 315 lbs like you can with the metal ones.

And rest easy, North Texas fans, Schilleci is already working on some of his Guyer teammates, including 2013 three-star wide receiver Ellis Jefferson and Jerrod Heard, who could end up being one of the top quarterback prospects in the country for 2014.

“That’d be extremely cool if a lot of local kids started going there [uNT],” Schilleci said. “I was talking with Jerrod and E.J. today. I think Jerrod is going to their camp pretty soon, and I thought how cool would it be if we all went there and [helped establish UNT’s program].”

This kid committing is cool in itself, but this other part makes me very happy in addition... Start chatting it up with some of the linemen. How about some DT's and DE's...I think there have been some really good ones from Denton over the past couple of years...

I really hope he does what he says and establishes this program.

I'm kind of tired of reading some kid in every class for the last 8 years say they are going to come in and establish this program.

Jerrod will be the top QB in state for 2014 and a potential top 10 recruit nationally

Absolutely. It would be great for the Schilleci commitment to open up a steady pipeline at Guyer. At least he's working on Jefferson and Heard for us!

Jordan Williams did this exact same thing when he committed to our b-ball team and I believe he was part of the reason we had such a good recruiting class last year. We need out commits to be vocal and call out other great players in the area to build up North Texas.

A 45lb. metal weight and a 45lb. rubber weight are typically the same size. Trust me, I run a health and wellness center and order these all the time. Now there are "training weights" that will be the same diameter but not the same thickness so they weigh less, but this is done to allow power lifts to be completed more easily.

Back on topic, this signing could be along the lines of the Jordan Williams basketball signing as cdizzle86 commented. Either way, I love the aggessiveness displayed in this young man's video and am pleased to have him on board. If he can persuade Heard and Jefferson to follow suit, then that would be icing on the cake!

You understand that whether they are metal weights or rubber padded weights (usually used for cleans) that a 45 lb metal weight and a 45lb rubber padded weight - weigh exactly the same.

The point is, you cannot tell from the video what the weights of the rubber plates are.

I can confirm those are 35's. I watched my son lift in this weight room this last spring where Guyer, Marcus and Hebron got their varsity football teams together for a informal showcase of team strength. My son is a DB and I thought I had just witnessed him putting up and incredible max of 365 on bench and 345 power clean when is best max was 305 and 285 respectively. After seeing some other parents milling around in the weight room, I went in to talk to my son to see what the heck and he pointed out the he only completed his best max of 305 and 285. The 35's look like 45's but are thinner. Not sure why they were stacking the 35's on everything they were doing but I was overwhelmed watching all of them from the outside looking in.

I think this is a great get. I'm sure we will have to fight off other programs to keep him. In the end, I think coach Mac and the staff can do that.

Here's an article on Rivals regarding early commits being good recruiters.

      If we win out reg season we are in?

      Minnesota with a 3rd straight Quad 1 win. Our win in their house is looking better every game. Baring a collapse, Memphis is all but guaranteed a spot. Prior to their loss at Temple, some bracket experts had them as a 4 seed. They're 5-2 in Quad 1 games and 10-3 in Quad 1 and 2 with wins against Missouri, UConn, Michigan State, Clemson, Ole Miss, all of which are in the top 35 of NET. The resume is too strong unless they pretty much lose out. Cougar guy is wrong, though. Independent bracket experts with good track records of guessing the field still have UNT as being in contention. It's a longshot but not dead.

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      It’s interesting because I know the perception of the new PAC and AAC is that the PAC will be stronger, but where would Texas State rather go? It seems like AAC for a variety of reasons. I’m not convinced the new PAC is better than the AAC. UNLV and New Mexico holding back in the MWC, with the Northern Illinois and GCU ads have the future PAC in a bit of limbo. They have to keep performing or they will fall back fast. The SBC and AAC currently are the more stable forces, hence a certain level of power and leverage lives there. To me the PAC must break the bank to get Memphis or they are not going to lift on takeoff. GMG

      Join the Infantry in Houston - Tuesday, 2/11 at 8pm

      Rob Lanier, former SMU head coach, found out what the Infantry could do last February at Moody Coliseum. So when he moved over to Rice, inside sources suggest he slipped Tim Spaghetti some cash to make sure his home game against UNT would be on a weeknight this season. But I say, "Too bad, Rob! You can't escape us!" If you're in Houston, or are retired and can make the trip, or want to use a couple of half days like I did, join us at the terrible Tudor Fieldhouse on Tuesday, 2/11 at 8 p.m. The game has the later start because it'll be on ESPNU as the "west coast game." There are just under a hundred seats left behind our bench which would be group-rated at $25. For the second straight year I want to sell the section out. What'll make it better is the sea of green will be on national TV. It'll be different without Scott Screamin' Pera on the Rice bench, but we'll still have plenty to taunt Lanier about. Like how his son has to follow him around to maintain a D1 scholarship. And don't forget the UNT Dallas debacle. Here's what we did last year. We bought about 70 tickets, plus whatever the team was allotted, and the local alumni who bought on their own. If you are interested in joining our group for the game, message me. I've got pending communication out with the Houston alumni chapter to see if they will plan to do anything before the game like last year.

      12,400 announced at Providence today, who came into the game with a record of 9-10. Providence is about the same distance to Boston as Denton is to Dallas.
