Tech lands big recruit

[Green Crazy]

I know it's not north texas oriented, but this was a wtf moment for me. The number one dual threat qb committed to them yesterday.

It's a commitment, not a signing.

Long way to go. Lets see if Tech can hang onto him.

My apologies.

[UNT90]

My apologies.

None needed. Just clarifying.

Apparently this kid has family ties to TTech, so they just may hold onto him.

[All About UNT]

Kid is a doofus....look at the offers he would be passing on

[greenminer]

Tech will never win a national title. The kid appears to have more interest in putting up video game like numbers, than winning a conference title.

Whatever floats his boat. I would be happy to take a kid in Denton that passes up the big boys.

What does he have to do with UNT? We're not even listed with an offer. Or, did I miss something?

you're right...we should all enjoy the sound of crickets instead

You're right, back to helmet sticker threads.

I believe I said the same thing in my first sentence. Maybe that's what you missed.

No, I didn't miss it. Reading the thread title "Tech", I'm thinking Louisiana Tech.''

Carry on.

Yep ... that's the only reason why I clicked on this link.

I live in texas, so tech is and will always be texas tech.

[MeanMag]

I live in Texas, was born in Texas and have always lived in Texas, and I don't immediately think of Texas Tech when someone says, "Tech". There are many "Techs". Va Tech, La Tech, Tx Tech, Ga Tech, ITT Tech.

That's strange. I've never had a conversation with anyone in the state of Texas where people were simply saying "Tech" and didn't mean Texas Tech.

Cal Tech, Colorado Tech, Florida Tech, Massachusetts Institute of Tech, India Institute of Technology in Kanpur, ...there are very many "Techs", but I would say most understood who I was talking about. Next time I'll be incredibly specific for some.

Me either.

[Green92]

I immediately thought Texas Tech.

[UNT90]

Trimble Tech?

[TheTastyGreek]

Good. I thought Technotronic was recruiting new members to bring back that sweet early 90's house/pop sound.

I thought they'd found someone who could help them Pump Up The Jam again, but now I'm disappointed. TEXAS Tech? Come on, man! BE PRECISE!

[Mean Green Matt]

I thought la tech, because it would then be remotely NT related.

[jdennis82]

I think this could be slightly NT related because it may cause QB prospects to be less interested in looking out West if they assume this guy was promised the starting gig.

[UNTP1]

I thought Tech and Kliff Kingsbury were both huge failures who ran off their good QBs and won't be able to get any good players to come play in Lubbock?

[Cr1028]

I've always said and known the Techs to be:

Louisiana Tech = "La Tech"

Virginia Tech = "Va Tech"

Georgia Tech = "Georgia Tech"

Texas Tech = "Tech"

I would never assume someone who said A&M was speaking of Florida A&M or any other A&M besides Texas A&M. In Texas, Tech is Texas Tech.

[Green P1]

Whenever someone references Baylor... I immediately think of the hospitals.

BE MOAR SPECIFIC YALL.
