Harvard, Yale, Princeton. Must be a smart kid.

[Marty]

committed to Air Force at one time. Wonder what led him to UNT?

[Harry]

Looks like he originally signed with Air Force: http://www.dailynews.com/sports/20140206/daniel-khan-signs-with-air-force-academy-football

Of note: Was injured for part of the season but still managed 39 receptions for 522 yards and four touchdowns, plus he started on defense and was the holder for place-kicks. His best performance came in Week 2 with seven catches for 156 yards and two long TDs in a surprisingly easy 41-24 win over state-power Del Oro. Also had seven catches for 113 yards and two TDs against eventual state-champion Chaminade.

Harvard, UNT, Princeton and Yale...

He did sign with Air Force:

Daniel Khan WR, 5-11, 160, Sherman Oaks, Calif. (Notre Dame)
Held offers from virtually everyone in the Ivy League. Told Scout.com that academics were the most important factor, but he also wanted to be a contributor. Caught 61 passes for 954 yards and 11 touchdowns during his junior and senior seasons

[Mean Green 93-98]

Love the blocking at the 1:45-53 mark!

Looks solid overall. I guess he is basically Fonzale Davis's replacement?

[golfingomez]

I'm disappointed in the lack of images so far... the title of this thread screams for it

[golfingomez]

so how did this kid get on our radar? and what's his story?

[emmitt01]

Trust me...you don't want to incur this kid's wrath

[greenminer]

Trust me...you don't want to incur this kid's wrath

[Rudy]

Is he suiting up this season or redshirting?

[Harry]

[Christopher Walker]

committed to Air Force at one time. Wonder what led him to UNT?

Have you heard what's been going down in Colorado Springs??

[MeanGreen01]

To answer the question, he must be a smart kid to chose NT over those schools! He must of heard of our new President. They are changing our name next year to UNT Harvard in Texas

That "Stanford of C-USA" moniker is providing prompt and sustainable returns.

GMG

[MeanGreenTexan]

These DBs are trying my patience.

[meangreendork]

That is all.

[The Fake Lonnie Finch]

Finally, a relative of Mr. Bean on the roster.

[UNT 90 Grad]

That is all.

Underrated.

[foutsrouts]

His grandpappy Genghis was one bad dude. Nice addition.

[TheWestie]

With all the Ivy offers, and then deciding on UNT, I wonder what he wants to get his degree in?

Which we can then brag about as being a badass program.
