Drink beer, great guy and a great fan of the sports program. He did lot of the work for the alumni (sig ep) at the cotton bowl game that resulted in a huge turnout.

If he's anything like the last transfer we got from ACU, I'll be thrilled. The 2 years he was here, Riley Mayfield was arguably (along with Elex) the best OL we had. Welcome aboard Kameron!

Will be missed by many. https://obits.dallasnews.com/amp/obituaries/dallasmorningnews/197815198

RIP Glenn.

I don't care if he wasn't rated, and is maybe undersized at his position, but we NEED the depth. I'm hoping we can get more of a depth in the front 7, and do what SMU and UH do where they do almost a complete rotation. We never really do that because we never have the depth and talent at that area. Welcome, Kameron!

Guys our sack leader had 4.5 sacks last season, the next highest was 3. He bends the corner, dips and gets leverage on the tackle better than most of our defensive ends do. If that's his only trick and he plays on 3rd downs while McCrae slides inside he will contribute a lot. We didn't sign a single high school DE in 18, signed two in 19 (Walker, Dotson) who were already passed for playing time by the class of 20 signees Rausaw and Pickett. In my opinion this is a lot better than signing JUCO guys who were just big bodies expected to hold up against the run like Frow, Sa'afi, McMillan, and Colvin.

I’m interested to see where Bennett puts Rausaw and Pickett. Rausaw was playing nose last year after coming in at 6’3” 275 and Pickett was playing 3-tech at 6’3” 270. Looking at Baylor film it looks like most of the time they have a 1-tech DT and a 3-tech DT. Where they were currently, they would be more inside unless Bennett has plans to trim them down a little and move them back outside.

I was looking forward to these two games and hoping for a split. We had that game won last year if Tayveion hits his free throws at the end and he’s been an 80% plus guy from the line since he’s been here. We have a pretty good squad this year. Bassey is legit legit. His freshman year he really wasn’t. He had good numbers but he wasn’t going to get drafted high so came back. He was playing pretty well until he broke his knee. I honestly (being a lifelong Western fan that expects the worst) didn’t expect much out of him this year being 9 months removed from major surgery. He has far exceeded what I thought we’d get out of him. We’ve got some really good pieces at the other spots also with a bunch of seniors. If Stans is ever going to do something here he’ll do it this year. They’ve announced we’ve picked up a non-conference game at Houston now. I knew from friends close to Stans that we’d been working on it and Houston wanted to but they said something about conference was giving them another conference game or something and couldn’t work it out. That’s what I heard anyway. But now it’s on. UNC tweeted out they were looking for ANYONE to play. Our guys jumped on the horn immediately and got a lot of hemming and hawing out of UNC and the next thing you know they announce they’re playing Northeastern. Stans has called Calipari so many times Cal is not answering any more calls from him. I don’t blame Stans for trying to pick up games. He has to know he’ll probably never have this roster again here. I think he can have some good teams in the future because he simply never stops recruiting. Have you ever watched him in a handshake line? The opposing coach has to physically remove Stans from loving on whatever player went off on us. You never know when a kid might want to txfer out. But this year he has a junior Bassey and some pretty good seniors playing their roles. I don’t think we’ll get blown out by Houston but I doubt Cincinnati expected to lose by almost 40 to them either. But it’s nice to get a game with a ranked team even on their floor. Stans got us the game with Alabama at their place earlier this year by calling everyone. We won that game at the very end and I never cry about refs but we were getting honked that whole game. Amazing that we stayed in it much less won it. I hate we’re not playing these two. Loved playing you guys in the Belt and love playing you guys here in CUSA.

Never met Glenn, but I saw him at enough UNT events to know he was definitely one of us. RIP, Sir.

So today’s my birthday. I opened my email and saw an email from UNT congratulating me and giving me a 10% coupon for merchandise and free shipping. I think “I’d like a new hat and shirt.” Pick what I want and start online checkout. Enter my code and get a message that the code is invalid. Really!!! Just mean(green)...

Never like to lose anyone but especially a member of mean green nation. RIP

I agree with the depth and rotation comments. Hill gives us a solid 2 deep at DE with McCrae, Murphy Twins, and Him. Add in Rausaw, Walker, and Dotson and we've got 3 deep on both ends. Speed and Size. IMO Hill would be a perfect compliment to a guy like Rausaw who's more of a SDE. Put him on the weak side and let him wreak havoc. He's shown he can get to the QB already. Get him 1-on-1 and let him eat

Spot on. Depth along the defensive front is critical. When your DL starts to wear down, you are toast.

The old bait and switcharoo? Now you know how Arkansas felt on the fake fair catch......lol

I think our 3 man D-line may have scarred off some DE's.

At this point, I'll take a tournament birth with any seed. This team just deserves to be in the NCAA tournament.

Yet here you are keeping it alive. Let me give it a shot.

That's a fair point. I do think we have better depth at DT right now than DE. Which is why I think one of them will move to the end. I'll be interested to see what the post spring depth chart looks like

There was a decline last year right before the Spring/Summer surge. I'm cautiously optimistic this will be different.

Call them up, let them know what happened, and they'll figure out how to make it work.

Whether you like A&M or hate them, you have to admit this was a classy gesture.

We'll pass that on to the coaching staff. I'm sure it was an honest mistake on their part...🤨

Cuban is just an opportunistic hack that wants to be accepted by all the elites and celebrities!

Looks like Bennett is going after guys who have proven they can play at the D1 level, rather than P5 guys who have been backups and are looking for playing time. Tyrae Thornton started at Rice, Kameron Hill was a multi-year starter at the FCS level, and Jason Simmons (another transfer offer we have out) started at Safety as a true freshman at New Mexico State in 2019. We aren’t going to get P5 starters, so that’s typically what you can get. Either P5 backups who don’t have playing experience and the most recent tape you really have is high school, or guys who you actually have seen can play and produce at the D1 level but may not be as talented. We also have the former with guys like Jordan Rucker (Purdue), John Davis (Texas Tech), and Logan Wilson (ULM via Kansas State). Risk with either route.

It's a central theme for many: "What's good for thee is not for me!"

I was wondering the same thing. Guess it depends on which side of the aisle you poke fun at @TheTastyGreek ??

6'0" 160 lbs. Also holds offers from Baylor, Hawaii, Kansas, and William & Mary. https://247sports.com/player/evan-stewart-46096676/

We are scheduled to be at Marshall Friday night @ 6pm on ESPNU and Saturday @ 1pm on Stadium. Marshall is 12-5 overall and 6-4 in CUSA. In conference they have split at La Tech, were swept by WKU in Bowling Green, swept FIU in Miami, split with ODU on the road and swept MTSU at home. They are led by Taevion Kinsey, 6'5" G, that averages 20.4 pts. per game and logs heavy minutes, over 37 per game. I expect Reese to be in his back pocket all game. G Jarrod West is their second leading scorer at 13.6 ppg while logging 34.5 minutes per game. Their third leading scorer is another G, Andrew Taylor, at 10.7 pts per game while also playing over 30 minutes a game at 31.8 per contest. They appear to run about 7 deep with the next four players averaging between 5 and 10 pts a game. Playing on the road is never easy, especially with how things have shaken out this year with the cancellations and back to backs, but we should sweep if we play up to our potential. Should be a good two games.

I so hope this is true. The latest numbers certainly show a very steep decline but I worry that it may be due to reduced testing over the last couple of weeks with the extreme winter weather we just had.

Delacruz and the sprinters had a great weekend. https://meangreensports.com/index.aspx

This is the final stretch. We need sweeps, and my gut tells me between WKU, Marshall, and UAB, we will not be able to afford more than 1 split. We are so damn lucky to get WKU/UAB in Denton. Javion is finding himself, WKU is on a tear, and Hilltoppers have everyone on board for our matchup (as opposed to last year with no CB). ...if you aren't pumped for this, I don't know what to tell ya!

Good on Stans for getting this. Hope they can compete. Any attention they can get elevates CUSA. and makes beating them even sweeter.

We ought to have Portland State players lined up.

Sounds like Kameron Hill could be a real pass rushing deluxe. This upcoming 2021 Mean Green “D” I believe is going to be fun watching its development. 🦅❇️🦅

VERY good. That’s why Baylor loves him so much. That team, in terms of numbers, wasn’t crazy amazing, however they still had one of the best defenses in the country. Phil Bennett is amazing at developing players.

Looks like he might have opted out. I believe he was a preseason All-SLC pick https://www.nfldraftdiamonds.com/2020/05/kameron-hill/

I guess it will depend on if he wants to be home and where he thinks he will play soonest. I am betting here. Our safety situation is pretty thin.

Mason came in late in the first game of the season (southern meth) in relief of Alex Morris and started every game thereafter.

Revisiting some highlights.

CBL is on this board like, what, once a month? He's intentionally poking the bear because he knows a similar ban doesn't matter.

By the way, @Censored by Laurie absolutely no problem with your post. Nothing wrong with lighthearted post. Just pointing out when Lifer put up a GIF he was locked out.

Guess I should do a better job at picking my friends.

And...kneeling isn’t just ignoring it, but you know that.

we tried that and it cost a man his NFL career.

While we're changing this stuff up, can we please get Take Me Out to the Ball Game back for the 7th inning stretch at Rangers games. Been putting up with God Bless America now for almost 20 years.

Do we have a commit from his high school or is that another of the many schools in Frisco

A well used but appropriate graphic.
