UNT assistants on the road, thoughts on the SMU series

Harry · May 10, 2013

One of the notable absences last night at the last stop of the Mean Green coaches caravan last night was the UNT football assistant coaches.

There was a good reason. They were all on the road in the spring recruiting period, seeing players across the state.

It wasn’t really a news tidbit, so I didn’t include it last night when I went through what was said, but Dan McCarney did talk a bit about focusing on the

Dallas area and then spreading out from there, looking for players.

The offers continue to go out.

Offensive lineman Christian Beard of Waco Midway and athlete Kaelin DebOoski of Tucson (kind of random) are two of the more recent offers that have popped up.

The move to Conference USA should make a big difference for UNT in terms of bringing in more talent in 2014.

SMU is an extremely dangerous series forUNT. Until coaches, players, and fans treat it as something other than just another ho hum non conference game we are in extreme danger of being the laughing stock of the metroplex. Playing SMU is not a game. It is all out class warfare!!!!!

I know of very few NT fan who treat it as a ho hum series. None of the current players nor coaches have played a football game against SMU but I don't see any reason to believe they would either. I think it will be a solid, hard fought series with both teams winning some of the games.

Who in their right mind would treat this as "ho hum"??

"Now, that is not to say that UNT won’t recruit well this season with C-USA to sell. We are all still on the Dan-Wagon. Keep your hands and feet safely inside as the ride continues."
