6'3" 200 lb receiver from Southlake Carroll. Holds offers from us and Louisiana Tech, per EJ Holland. Can't find any highlights, or much info, currently.

At a school like Southlake it wouldn't surprise me if this is going to be his first season on varsity. Also, take the height and weight listing with a grain of salt. Usually younger kids' listed measurables are what they expect they will be when they're graduating, rather than what they actually are. But I'm sure he is a good-sized receiver. Also runs track and plays baseball.

Highlights:

Update on Farrar. Had 29 catches for 554 yards and 3 scores as a junior. He now holds offers from Iowa, Purdue, and Texas State, in addition to the offers he held before the year from us and Louisiana Tech.

Related note; this is why I'm not a big fan of recruiting the metroplex powerhouse schools. The exposure at those schools is so high that, for example, you can have decent numbers like Farrar had and that's good enough to get multiple P5 offers already by February of your Junior year. It's also why I love East Texas. Could you imagine Jeffery Wilson or Tee Goree's offer lists if they would've been playing for teams like Southlake Carroll or Allen? As it were, they had good offer lists. Very good, in the case of Tee Goree. But those kids at the metroplex powers get so much exposure that what you see on their offer list is usually what you get. If they're worth getting then they'll very likely have options.

I'm not opposed to recruiting over here and at the metroplex powers. Especially if we can win these types of recruiting battles. And with more frequency.

But as long as we're in CUSA, we have to take advantage of kids flying under the radar. And that just doesn't happen at these schools. We saw that with Cody Wheeler, once he had a full season of starting for colleges to see him. Anyways, just a discussion point in a slow time for recruiting.

      This sounds like a marriage counseling session that went off the rails. Nobody needs to be reminded when the season starts that they declared their intention to quit supporting the school during the offseason. Everybody knows supporting UNT is like herpes. You think it's finally gone and it flares up again.

      financially? ha...oh goodness no. I spend my money on travel, music, drugs, golf, art, fine food & drink and my various charitable pursuits. like an interesting person. as a fan, sure. and I like the rest of you will be right back here supporting in the exact same way you have for 10, 20, 50 years. you'll be saying how ________ is the best PG or PF we've had here in decades, you'll rationalize away your "hate" for the portal with the fact that ________ is on his third school (at least until he transfers out at the end of next year) and you'll go on supporting the laundry because its what you do. the piety is boring so just stop. you never cared about the kids, just how they made you feel about your school...because that's somehow super important in your social circles

      If Mean Green fans grousing could kill your vibe, how did it survive on GMG for 21 years?

      I am not disregarding it, I'm suggesting we suck at recruiting, with or without NIL. NIL and the transfer rules are just making the entire process around us, in and outside Denton, move faster. I don't really care if this is statistically the worse offseason ever. I still handle emotionally it the same as any other bad offseason, which have been plenty around here. I'll still be around, watching and rooting for the Mean Green next year.

      No, I was trying to say his comparison of loyalty to hopping jobs. A company would drop any one as an employee without the bat of an eye. There is no loyalty on the business side.
