MEEN2018

At the same time I am a Mechanical & Energy Engineering major and I see one of my current professors every week at church, so plenty of Christian professors as well. Regardless of their faith, there are a lot of good professors that are there to help you if you need it.

This one seemed inevitable since his visit, but excited to add him. I have a feeling this class is going to end up a lot better and highly ranked than people could have envisioned a couple of weeks ago.

https://www.twitter.com/izzyqb1/status/822926630595264514 sorry I can't figure out how to embed it. Looks good in this short video. I'm a big fan of Mason Fine and while he had his struggles (just like any freshman) I think he showed a lot. Should be an interesting competition between Mason, Isadore, and Pearson. Regardless have to feel a lot better about QB than any recent time.

Based off his twitter activity it seems like he is leaning toward heading to UNT. Would be a BIG TIME add at the last minute! Hopefully we can snag him!

So did we ever get a list of who visited this weekend?

https://www.twitter.com/JasonLaCanfora/status/822279587627462661 This makes the whole thing even crazier. Tough to see but hopefully we involve him in someway as he would be a great recruiter to UNT if he wanted to become a coach.

www.twitter.com/WEBOrecruiting1/status/821909320577196038 Littrell and Coach Brown stopped by today. Most likely to talk to Noah Jones but also wouldn't be surprised if they talked to: http://247sports.com/Player/Treston-Price-87538 http://247sports.com/player/l-t--jessie-75959 (Looks like he now goes to Lancaster but his 247 isn't updated, however his ESPN is) http://247sports.com/Player/Cartrell-Thomas-79405 and scout lists us as interested in: http://www.scout.com/player/202383-jordan-hollis These seem like the likely targets as the only other guy with a recruiting page with interest is a ESPN 300 player committed to TCU and had Oklahoma visit today as well. Good to see the coaches out recruiting and look forward to see the last few guys they get to round out the class! GMG!

His 247 page has his official visit to Ohio on January 13 so he wouldn't have been here this weekend. Still hope we can get him though. Hopefully a good sign that a week after we offer him he decommits

https://mobile.twitter.com/Jacobb1813/status/820677977545572352 This makes it seem like we have cooled off on Justice. Not sure though. Would like to add him but know it's hard with only 20 available spots so lots of strategy involved.

His HS teammate and oline buddy Jacob Brammer just committed to UNT so hopefully he can sell Justice on coming here as well.

The suspense is crazy on who the big time target is. Will be interesting to follow for sure and hope we get that recruit! Thanks @TheReal_jayD for keeping us updated!

Not sure if he is visiting or not but Malik Jackson, WR, Taylor TX is now following Bryce English and Tashard Choice. http://www.scout.com/player/201760-malik-jackson http://247sports.com/player/malik-jackson-91465 http://www.hudl.com/profile/4399434/malik-jackson Also Brian Parish, T, Arlington TX is now following Jacob brammer and Malik Jackson so he might be here as well. He is currently a TXST commit. http://247sports.com/player/brian-parish-91848 http://www.scout.com/player/208886-brian-parish?year=2016 http://www.hudl.com/profile/5677732/brian-parish

http://notredame.247sports.com/Article/Marty-Biagi-leaves-Notre-Dame-new-UNT-special-teams-coordinator-50499266 "“As a graduate assistant, one thing head coach Petrino did was put a lot of responsibilities on their GA’s,” said Davenport. “It was Marty and [current Notre Dame offensive coordinator] Chip Long. Marty got a kid from North Carolina named Chris Smith, a defensive end who is now with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Arkansas rarely, if ever recruits North Carolina. That was a big get. He had a lot of offers. For a guy to get Chris and his family to visit that summer and then for an official visit during the season and then sign him, that’s big. Marty was also able to get a receiver from Virginia, Quinta Funderburk, another four-star recruit. He was the lead recruiter on both of those guys. That in itself is quite impressive. “I remember the kids really liking Marty. He related well to him. He was younger and is still a young guy. They really enjoyed the way he recruited and related to them. The guys on the team enjoyed being coached by him. “He had special teams responsibilities under Petrino. I know he also did well as a defensive backs coach at Southern University. I just always thought Marty had the chance to be a head coach 10-15 years from that point. Very detail-oriented, well-liked. Overall, as a graduate assistant, he did a really good job. Not many GA’s could be a lead recruiter for a guy, but he was and he did well. He didn’t even go off campus. He did it all over the phone. It’s pretty impressive. He’s relentless and a hard worker. The kids said that about him.” Biagi brings a great deal of knowledge to his new position at North Texas, but as seen above, a ton of experience on the recruiting trail." Seems like a good add. I liked Perry as well but seems like he hasn't been as active recruiting this season anyways. Also I believe that Littrell has earned the benefit of the doubt and he knows what he is doing. So while some may be skeptical right now, I think we just need to watch this play out. It also doesn't have to be Perry is good and this guy is bad or vice versa. They can both be very good but with salary and coaching philosophies maybe Biagi works better for UNT now. Regardless I wish Perry the best!

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.

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.

McNeal retweeted this. Would be crazy if we could add our 3rd former 4 star recruit to play next season. With Bryce obviously coming here for family reasons, and Guyton and McNeal being pursued by top P5 teams right now, I doubt their team violations were anything too bad. That means that we could add 3 potential star players that had to leave former programs for reasons besides their on field ability which is a huge turning point for UNT. These guys' questions aren't on the field which is definitely a different narrative than former transfers UNT has added, with potential baggage off the field likely not being too bad as still being recruited elsewhere as well. Insanely improved team this year and looking like it could just be a small stepping stone compared to potential seasons down the road! GMG! also since we just dismissed 2 starting wr's it would be a surprise and puzzling decision if we took on replacements that had problems that were in the same severity or worse.

Hopefully 247 adds in his scout and rivals grades as well for his composite grade. He is a 3 star on both those sites as well as definitely a huge addition if we can hold on.

Multiple UNT fans were commenting on Twitter about him winning district Offensive mvp saying that we could use him at UNT, and he responded saying that UNT is in his top choices and he will be committing to a school soon. Would be a huge addition!

Looks like Coach Brown visited him today!

Had an in home visit with UNT today!

Especially considering the people that keep promoting these players are the ones that constantly complain whenever UNT recruits a player that doesn't have multiple P5 offers...

Got offered by Utah this weekend on a visit there. It looks like him and Eno Benjamin, another former Iowa commit, may be close so they might end up being a package deal. If true, even though not likely, I'd love to see both in green! By the way here is a tweet from his dad: https://mobile.twitter.com/CorralesGreg/status/799739789583020038 interesting that he only mentions the UNT offer and not the handful of P5 ones. Hopefully his dad helps sway him to UNT!

http://sportsday.dallasnews.com/high-school/high-schools/2016/11/20/defensive-player-week-area-round-denton-ryans-tyreke-davis Defensive player of the week! Good article with stats and quotes. Looks like a great addition and hopefully can help start that pipeline to the Denton high schools that we have needed for so long!
