Iona is not a bad school.

Wesley had offers from Arkansas and Kansas St., among others. Now we are going after a guy that may or may not have an offer from Iona. Just pointing out the cliff recruiting is heading over.

We have no idea who this guy has offers from. Please stop giving 100% accuracy to Rivals...it's been proven many times to be incorrect especially when dealing with juco transfers and late qualifiers.

No, we don't. But we do know that Spring signing day is 2 days behind us without without a signing and we have 4 open scholarships and basically zero competition for a big man spot.

It would seem we would have at least one spot filled by now.

Maybe Benford recruits the greatest JUCO class in UNT history, but his start to this Spring has been anything but spectacular.

OK we get that you feel this way, can we just wait to see who he lands before we crap all over his efforts? I could care less about the start to recruiting I - and most here - care about the results.

If the results don't match the talent we have recruited the last 3 year, will we then see a bunch of "diamond in the rough" and "you can't trust recruiting services" posts to justify a drop in recruiting.

Like I said in the previous post, it's early, and Benford may indeed pull several rabbits out of his hat, but the start of Spring signing is very concerning.

True, we did have some talented recruits the last 3 years, but the results didn't get us to the NCAA's, thus winning the SBC tourney, the past two years. I agree with Harry, let's see how this ends up.

Interesting side note, there is a DeMonte Flannigan who signed with Cleveland State and was a pretty highly regarded recruit with a lot of offers... He is 6-8 like Armani. Just a coincidence? Could they be related? Who knows but here's a link to his profile:

      We should really stop these threads. It’s just depressing because the only conclusion is that no one cares about us.

      The Mean Green nickname was used a lot during the Fry era. There were "Mean Green And Proud Of It" bumper stickers and buttons. Almost every other bumper sticker used the words "Mean Green." Before football and especially basketball games....the fans would start chanting....."Bring Out The Mean Green!....Bring Out The Mean Green!....."Bring Out The Mean Green!".....

      In Slovenia with the wife and can’t watch the game later so will just post now that I am really disappointed in how we played.

      Opps! Jim Hobdy created the UNT Battle Flag in 1986 and WAS NOT involved with Rick Spear's design of the flying worm which was adopted by Hayden Fry and used during his tenure.My bad. It is a shame that we didn't stick with it and it certainly separated us from any other eagle mascot. However if you google history of Mean Green knickname you will find the credit for its universal usage by UNT attributed to Rick Villareal, not Hayden Fry.

      I don't think Hayden did this. Perhaps you could provide some reference as I can't recall the term "mean green " applying to our team as a whole until the 2000's. Yes the eagle is our mascot and mean green is the nickname of our team. Also I believe Jim Hobney [sic] was also involved in the creation of the flying worm bet can't exactly remember how. Maybe you know.
