UNT Signing Day 2014 FAX UPDATE THREAD!

[Mean Green 93-98]

Looks like Houston offered and only visited LaTech. Who knows!

I highly doubt that Houston offer was still valid. Ours obviously wasn't.

This is all great news and a big day of UNT. Any thoughts about how many of these we'll see on the field against the longhorns?

The biggest surprise is that there were no surprises.

No last minute defections (except for that CB who went to Houston, but he was a big meh for me, anyway). Tee Goree hold on strong.

Good day for UNT.

Vito made it sound like we're close to flipping someone but lost out in the end.

Tee Goree hold on strong.

How Tee and the other recruits getting late interest from bigger schools decided to stay with UNT:

Tee asked the other recruits "you strong?" And they said "I'm strong if you strong." So Tee said "we strong then."

Twitter, I see.

You didn't watch the national championship game, did you?

So are we pretty certain that our total for this class is currently at 23?

If so, I am trying to think of the reasons why. So far I have come up with the following:

1. Saving a couple of 'ships to offer to walk on after Spring practice.

2. Use on a late qualifier or player that slipped through the cracks.

3. Use on a mid term (January 2015) and push the ship back into 2014.

Any other reasons for not filling up the class today?

Actually, no. Lol.

1. This is interesting to think about. Two walkons in particular who have a chance to end up on scholly are Chelf and Zach Paul. Because they have played two years here as a walkon they would not count in any class. Plenty of other walkons who joined the team for the 2013 season who have a chance though. But we all know Coach Mac doesn't just give them out.

2. Possible

3. Don't know if the coaches would intentionally leave a spot or two open to carry over to next year, although maybe if they really like the 2015 class it's possible. Good to be able to carry any extra scholarships over to next year.

The more I see from this guy, the more excited I am to have him in green. This is a great signing.

A few interesting observations...

Apparently, North Mesquite has two DBs named Andrew Jones as texasfootball.com shows one signing with Northern Illinois, in addition to the one signing with UNT.

UTEP signed 11 recruits from outside the state of Texas.

The Carthage QB signed with UTSA.

A relative of Manti Te'o's fake girlfriend signed with SMU.

This is the most exciting recruiting class around here for several years. Really excited to watch Goree and Rutherford.
