Preferred Walkons are a big part of why this program is doing so well. See Sarge, Kenny Buyers, Kaydon Kirby, Zach Paul etc... Aaron Fortenberry our BEST Olineman last year was a Preferred walk-on! Hall of Fame center Andy Brewster was a preferred walk on!

Our affordable tuition and the fact we TRULY give every player the opportunity to play makes this a PRIME destination for talented players like young Mr. Well's a good reason to choose UNT.

Could Means be moved to TE ala Cooper Jones?

I've thought this as a possibility as well. He moves well for a big guy. Had a win in OT against La Porte where he made a great run then dragged a kid into the endzone for the game winning td. Edited by BillySee58

If he ever does get a start it will make things interesting for our oline having to switch our tackles to protect the blind side of a lefty.

When was the last time UNT had a lefty QB?

Canales should use the Double QB formation next year like ULM did against Baylor last year.

Absolutely. And don't go thinking that as our team improves and our recruits improve that walkons will stop contributing. Always guys who slip through the cracks.

Oh, I agree, but a 5'10" QB when we have Williams ready and waiting just seems odd. Glad to have him though.

What happened to the "good" dual threat QB that Mac promised? Thompson has had a pretty decent year but this offense is still limited with pro-style QB's. What happens when Lemon, Johnson and the other horses up front graduate?

This kid looks taller than 5-11 but I don't see much more than another guy with a red cap on.

You don't stop recruiting just because you have 1 QB.

I agree, but with all due respect to this young man, a lightly recruited preferred walk-on is not the answer.

Cooley = brutally honest. Telling it like it is.

We're bringing in a scholarship qb this class too

Okay, I am aware that Means has committed and put up less than stellar numbers this year. Now this young man commits, but is a left handed Riley Dodge, so I really don't think either one is the answer. I could see Means being moved to TE, so we need a commit with D1 measurables and stats. There were several interested in us earlier and would be curious to know if they are still interested/we are still offering. I would prefer someone with more size like Ben Arbuckle:

I thought that is what Berglund was? He just wasn't able to beat out DT.

      2025 Projected Depth Chart

      I know this is still subject to change, but with a lot of transfers signed I figure we have enough to get a pretty good idea on what our depth chart will look like next year. This includes all scholarship players and walkons who are in the depth chart. Did my best guess based on Sam Houston’s positions listed on their defensive depth chart (12 spots based on the packages) and where our guys were listed, as well as their guys who we are bringing over. Took some best guesses with guys who weren’t in the two deep/newcomers. Save your comments about how the transfer portal sucks and this could change so much between now, etc. That was always the case this many months out, but we have a pretty good idea based on the guys who actually play or we are bringing in. The bottom of the depth chart guys leaving is expected but doesn’t really change things. Asterisk indicates newcomer: Z - JR Landon Sides RS FR Kyle Koch RS FR Mason Ferguson *FR Tyler Smith Y - SO Miles Coleman X - *SR Cameron Dorner RS FR Baron Tipton H - SO Wyatt Young JR Dalton Carnes LT - *RS SR Jimto Obidegwu RS SO Keon Johnson RS FR Christian Pettway FR Jordan Reasonover LG - SO Braydon Nelson RS FR Paul Gurrola C - RS SR Gabe Blair RS FR Amarion Berry RG - RS JR Johnny Dickson RS SO Julio Madero RS FR Matthew Reed RT - RS SR Larry Moore RS SO Desmond Magiya RS SO Isaac Sohn *FR Roberto Rodriguez TE - SO Brandon Young *SR Tre Williams RS SR Xzavior Kautai *RS SO Connor Vaughn RS FR Victor Aderungboye QB - *SR Reese Poffenbarger RS FR Drew Mestemaker RS FR Cash McCollum *FR Chris Jimerson RB - SR Damashja Harris *JR Jayden Becks RS SO Makenzie McGill SO Kiefer Sibley JR Zach Evans RS FR Ashton Gray *FR Caleb Hawkins Defense DE - SR Breylon Charles *RS SO Demetrie Morgan *RS FR Josh Pierce NT - *JR Quincy Wright SO Jayden Williams SR VJ Bronson DT - *RS SR Richard Outland RS SR Fehi Vailea RS FR Jaedon Langley JACK - *SR Briceon Hayes RS FR Zhaiylen Scott *RS FR Will Smith *FR Brayden Knox SLB - RS JR Ethan Wesloski RS SR Chavez Brown *RS SO S’maje Burrell MLB - *SR Trey Fields RS SO JJ Jean-Louis WLB - SR Shane Whitter SO Kabriel Anderson-Dale FS - *SR DJ Warnell Jr JR BJ Allen RS FR Chris Gant SS - JR Evan Jackson SO Quinton Hammonds RS FR Jaydon Smith RS SR Isheem Young NB - *RS SR Da’Veawn Armstead RS SO Taylor Starling RCB - *RS SR David Fisher RS SO Kollin Lewis RS FR Gabe Stroud LCB - RS SO Brian Nelson JR X’Avion Brice K - RS SO Kali Nguma JR Blake Ford RS FR Miguel Arenas P - SR Sawyer Evans SR Seth Ford

      Chris Jimmerson

      So similar to Jimerson's recruitment in that nobody really wanted to give either a scholarship at QB. Thanks for the insight. Colorado just signed ESPN's #2 overall prospect in Julian Lewis at QB. If Lewis works out, how does it benefit either party for Jimerson to go sit on the bench behind a top QB prospect? They also signed one of Jimerson's teammates so clearly they aren't high on Jimerson as it is.
