James Jones was looking for a place where he could make an immediate impact, not to mention somewhere he felt at home, when it came time to decide where to continue his football career.

The Kilgore College cornerback found both at North Texas and decided late Friday afternoon to commit to the Mean Green.

Jones made an official visit to UNT this week.

I loved it, Jones said. I just decided right now that Im going to North Texas. I am going to give them the OK on Sunday. I loved the business building, the coaches and the students. Its like a family down there.

Mississippi State, Houston, Troy and New Mexico offered Jones scholarships. He visited Troy and was scheduled to take a visit to Houston this weekend.

Jones was considering canceling that visit Friday afternoon.

Oral commitments are nonbinding. The mid-term signing period for junior college players begins Wednesday.

Jones will transfer at mid-term and participate in spring practice.

North Texas is not a hard sale once kids actually take a walk thru our campus and the Mean Green Village. I don't think many of our biggest critics on some of these message boards also have a clue as to what we have going on across our main campus after years of new construction. We just need to start having some consecutive winning seasons again because that is the missing ingrediant at North Texas. GMG!

      WBB vs. Rice

      Yes CC Kid .. I noticed the same. Great effort - mostly in 2nd half. Slow starts have hurt. We can rule out a couple games, but this does seem to be fairly common. And you can see the diff. when it happens. just look a the NT vs Memphis mens game .. intense from the start and entire game focus affected. But hey, the teamsare doing really well this year !!

      PAC is back

      I grew up with "Eagles" and have never liked " Mean Green ", because we are not mean [look at our football record ] and not green [ we have an underfunded athletic department.] I agree with lack of media contracts as a deal breaker but don't know if we would want the travel required for all sports anyway. The BIG MOUNTAIN WEST podcast brought the subject up stating that the PAC and Texas State were in serious discussions and if they came then UNT or UTSA would be their next logical target so you may want to watch it. I don't have an opinion as I am really surprised that NIU joined the MWC for football only. According to the MAC bylaws you must have all your programs in the conference in order to be a member. Unless they change them then NIL's best option appears to be the MVC for all other sports but who knows.

      Nice Article: Maintaining Success

      as a lot of big time coaches have said... if you want to immediately improve your team, getting everyone's effort levels up will do that... Since McCasland started his run, the Mean Green have been all about effort, and Hodge has done an excellent job of transitioning into the HC role. It's been talked about ad nauseum, but the Mean Green have an identity. The identity is f*ck you, you aren't going to get easy passes, be able to breathe with the ball in your hands and you're going to be complaining to the refs all game about how physical the team is. It's going to be ugly, and we are betting that we are going to be better than you in the last five minutes of the game. Credit to Hodge for bringing in the right players to keep this thing moving forward. I am looking forward to the rest of the season and hoping for some hardware

      SMU 's New Facility

      the facilities look great. Unfortunately, unless things change around Denton quickly, the reality is that SMU is playing a completely different game than the Mean Green, good luck to you, but i don't know why you are coming on here to post topics of a team you probably won't play again for a long time... (maybe basketball) Good luck to you.
