Projected 2015 UNT OLine?

[MeanGreenTexan]

I think we will have two O-lines, equally good, so what we will do is line up in a new formation called the MeanGreenPainTrain. Here is what it looks like

OT OG C OG OT

OT OG OG OT

TE

RB

Why not use our best assets?? Lots of Beef, and a Running Back.

You must be the love child of Darrell Dickey and Darrell Royal.

GMG24 and I are "pro" triple option at North Texas. Honestly we have the players for it. We have failed Miserably at trying to get the typical pocket passing QB. Why not take advantage of the athletic QB's who are not 6"+ in the DFW area.

Have Tee and Carlos split wide. Put that stable of running backs that we have on the field and occasional TE and pound that rock. We will be extremely difficult to game plan for. No scout team can imitate the triple option like a team that runs it.

Take the air out of the ball and control the clock. That is what it seems like we are trying to do anyways.

[Mean Green 93-98]

We do, but I think Rice would be an upgrade at that position. And I wouldn't be shocked to see it happen. Kirby had a very lackluster season.

It seems that if we don't go with Kirby, Ochs would be the next logical center. Especially if Smith ends up winning the QB spot, considering that's who he's been taking snaps from.

All of the above has really helped me understand the o-line possibilities, great discussion for UNT fans like me who want to be involved. Please discuss the d-line and of course the qb position.

There will be many, many, many more discussions broken down before September 12th.

Mac doesn't seem to change linemen at all, so I have little doubt that Kirby starts. I think Renfro and Rice are good bets, but the other 2 starters could be almost any ol on the team.

[Coach Davis]

LT-Epps

LG-Rice

C-Ochs

RG-Kirby

RT-Miles

Epps is 6'1". I don't think we'll be seeing him at LT.

you all are forgetting about Avery Fortenberry - he's going to be a beast

people under estimated his brother early on too

Guys... We do realize this is an illegal formation right?

It's only illegal if the refs decide it's not legal.

I saw him on a picture posted on here and he looked every bit of 6-5 and pretty thick. if he is anything like his bro you are right kid may be a jewel for us.

I also wonder how the other cats are progressing ie Sorge, Walker, Ellard etc. Micah Thompson going to be a senior needs to step up.

Just scoot up the 'extra' tackles one yard and we are good to go.

That's what I'm talking about! I would actually like it to look like this.

Jumbo diamond, unstopable. Oh, and you can run either way, so defense can't declare strength

You could potentially be looking at Old school G power, with 2 more guards slamming up in there allowing Wilson, Evans, jimmy show, or Rollins, to do their thing for 1st down since we all know we darn well aren't throwing the ball on that down, then bring QB and normal package out for first down. thoughts?

BLAST GMG site hates my formation, the OG RB OG should be behind the center and both guards.. The second RB directly behind first RB

[UNT90]

If you are planning on running anywhere outside of the normal guard formation, you can't do it out of this formation.

And please stop, as I fear Ground Mac may take y'all up on it.

[GMG24]

Yes you sure can, stretch, toss, even Speed Option. But to each their own.

You better have some massively quick OGs in that backfield.

Again, don't give Mac any ideas!!

Lol, hey, they're only in on first downs they should be able to get out and run
