2013 GMG.com UNT Player Adoption List

[Harry]

We do this every year and we ask everyone to select a player on the UNT roster and "adopt" that player for the season. You basically keep an eye on that player and his stats and keep the board updated when he has a good game, makes a great play etc...it doesn't have to be starters, it could be a red shirt freshman that you think will make his mark this season or maybe even a punter or kicker. Heck even a true freshman like Darvin Kidsey could be someone's choice.

This year I am going to pick linebacker Derek Akunne!!



Derek's Bio

Derek had a REAL nice season last year, second on the team with 90 tackles but I think he will have an ever better year in 2014 (Can you say all C-USA?). Anyway this should be a fun year to follow him. GO Derek and GO MEAN GREEN!

[BillySee58]

I'm going with the Jimmy show. Can't wait to watch Antoinne Jimmerson take over some games this year.

[DeepGreen]

Going out on a limb here and picking #82, Nick Schrapps.

[NTEdgex2]

Going with a West Texas player, Dutton Watson, RS FR DT from Midland,TX. #98

GMG!

I'll take #3 Brelan Chancellor! I think he's hungry for an All-Conference season.

I'm going with the now dread-less Marcus Trice.

Be Great 8!

[UNT 90 Grad]

Just for kicks, I'll adopt #37 Zach Olen. He's the friend of the daughter of a former coworker of mine, so we're practically family already anyway.

[Mean Green 93-98]

#44, defensive end Aaron Bellazin.

I just have a feeling he's in for a big senior year.

[UNTLifer]

Sticking with Derek Thompson for the third year in a row. He's going to surprise us all this year.

[H-towngreen]

BB all the way. This season rides on him. If he loses the QB battle were destined for a fight to get to .500 if he wins out who knows. He is the make or break player this season.

[Christopher Walker]

Since I am a government guy, I will go with former public servant Sarge McCoy.

Aw, hell yeah.

Beat me to my first choice. But really I've got my interest piqued by Zed Evans.

Guy's got a ton of potential across multiple aspects of play.

Well this is a turn of events.

But then again... you would pick... the deep snapper.

Kohls it up, bro!

[All About UNT]

Gimme Darnell Smith for the most productive WR we will see this year. He will get over 700 yards

I hope so, but Chancellor goes for over 1,000.

[BillySee58]

I hope so, but Chancellor goes for over 1,000.

We should pass for 3,000 this year with these guys. Smith and Chancellor just get open. Throw in Harris, the new guys (Kidsy & Terrell) and Jimmerson, our threat out of the backfield and it should be a fun year throwing the ball.

Richard Abbe

[BIG DAWG]

Give me Sir Calvin Wallace...we need him to step up and be a player this year and I think the RS year was good for him.

[drex]

Going with Reggie Pegram...I know his cousin, who did great things here and in the pros.

[Side Show Joe]

I hope so, but Chancellor goes for over 1,000.

They could both go over 1,000 yards.

[DT 90]

I don't need to adopt.

[Censored by Laurie]

In keeping with my tradition of picking walk-on receivers who turn out to be valuable pieces in the passing game, give me Brady Brown.

[KRAM1]

Well, since both the deep snapper and place kicker have already been taken...I will stick with the special teams guys and go with none other than #40 - PUNTER - Blake Macek!

Going to be tough stepping into Will Atterberry's shoes, but pin 'em deep Blake!

Love me some special teams guys...
