Looks like we are in his final three with A$M and Baylor.  Wouldn't that be something if he ended up in Denton.

Looks like he wants to still go to Texas but got scholarship taken away because of grades. Have to think that if he is a late qualifier all of his other offers won't be valid anymore as those schools will probably fill up classes, with Baylor maybe being exception. Hopefully we keep a spot open and he found his way to Denton. Would have to be one of the best high school players UNT has ever added. Will be interesting to follow him and Eleasah Anderson to see where they could end up. They could be the type of lucky adds that could turn things around real fast, though still not likely they end up with either.

Boy would that be a big time get.

His 247 lists his UNT offer as May 2015 so I wonder if Seth Littrell and company are even recruiting him. Looks like he was suspended twice in high school, though not sure if that was for grades or behavioral problems. Really weird too that it looks like he hasn't gotten any offers since June of 2015 according to 247 and has put up monster stats and is a very high rated recruit. So I wonder if we are really in his top 3 as scout lists or not. The whole situation is a very weird one that will be interesting to follow the next month.

Do we know what he has done for him to be suspended? 

As much as its worriesome, if the kid suspensions are for something not major similar to the UTSA kid. I think the staff should/ would be smart if he can't go to bigger schools give him a chance but have him on a very tight leash.

Adding Carson and Anderson late in the period could be huge/would be huge for this program, even if it is a risk.

This is me just being pedantic, but wouldn't it be a short leash? Collars are tightened; leashes are shortened and lengthened?

First, what kind of collar are we talking about?  Traditional, prong, choke?  Or what if there is no collar and we're employing some sort of harness, perhaps an Easy Lead or Gentle Leader?  There are so many questions to answer before we can even begin to know if the collar will prod, pinch, or constrict around our troubled recruits' necks!

Of course, someone could question why we're treating players like dogs or sexual submissives in the first place.  Damn, we have a lot to discuss this offseason!

This is interesting, I know his brother personally. They are from my hometown of Clarksville ( same as Jarrian Roberts). LE is a school kind of known for amazing talent but the structure of the school for discipline is lacking. If he were to come here I do believe he would do well off the field if he had guidance . Of course on the field he's a monster and we would all love that. Also wonder if Jarrian is in his ear at all about coming to UNT.

Interesting read here including the unsubstantiated claim that he has a learning disability.  That may be an angle we can take as Jamario Thomas ended up here due to NT's excellent program for kid's with dyslexia.  Really curious to know the extent of  the issues that resulted in his suspension.  From doing a little digging, it appears some of this is academic related.

      A few HSO's

      1: One big problem with the NIL (aka pay for play) is that the universities are what draw the fans, not the players. People argue that "they deserve a piece of the pie", etc., but the big money comes from rabid fans and alumni of the schools, not from fans wanting to watch certain players. I wish they would form a minor league football and see how much interest there is...wait, we already have that. It's called the XFL, USFL, UFL and the players don't make much money ($5,500/wk) and there aren't many fans at the games. Put the Rengades in Alabama uniforms and the Stallions in Auburn uniforms and you'd sell out AT&T stadium. Why, because the players don't matter, the universities are what matter (as it pertains to attendance). Another example is the NBA D-League. What kind of money are those guys making? (I'll save you the Google search, they make $25K/yr). I have to assume that's peanuts compared to many of the NIL deals players are getting. If you want to get paid, go pro. Nobody is making you go to college to get a free education that will benefit you for the rest of your life. 2: I hate the argument that "coaches make big money and can leave for another job whenever they want to." See the last two sentences of the previous point. If you want to be able to do that, go pro. Make it your career just like the coaches have done. There are a very limited number of head coaching jobs at the college level and these coaches have put in LONG hours and worked their way up to the positions that they are in. Nobody was giving them millions of dollars when they were a GA busting their tail for nothing.

      Those schools you mentioned have already reached out to The Big 12. Also Louisville and Pitt have 100+ year historic rivalries with Cincy and WVU respectively. Keg of Nails and Backyard Brawl will both be owned by the Big 12 soon enough.
