"Good news for the Mean Green secondary. Zed Evans was granted a waiver by the NCAA and now has two years to play with North Texas."

We must have left the north off the application! All joking aside...this is great news!

This was announed almost 2 months ago?

Still awesome though

I remember this being mentioned somewhere previously but it's good to see the confirmation.

That is great news. I was thinking we only had him for one.

I remember this being mentioned, but it was underrated. This is great news! Can't wait to see Zed on the field.

I wonder why the Athletic Department waited until today to do their social media blast on it. They posted it today on Facebook as well.

I thought the previous message was that they were submitting the paperwork for the waiver not that he received approval. Either way, great news.

this was announced at a Caravan early last month.

Guess I missed the memo when it was originally announced at the caravan.

My apologies

Actually you were right on target. It had not been official until today. Thank you for posting this and glad to see you on here.

Maybe NT's success with the NCAA is changing for the better

I do believe that the graduate transfer rule will be ultimately changed, coaches are beginning to get real upset at the proliferation of athletes using this as an excuse to transfer without penalty.

On the other hand, why would any coach want a player on his team that really didn't want to be there?

And as to the timing of this official announcement. I think the athletic dept is trying to spread out over the summer months what little good news they have to potential ticket buyers who have yet to make a commitment.

I think that this announcement, plus the pep talk e-mail letter that I got from coach Mac a week or so ago, might be an indication that ticket sales are not going as well as they hoped.
