UNT has two jobs open at cornerback and a multitude of options. Crosby has looked like the best option...

Whoa!   Get in there young fella!

Judging by what we saw from Johnson/Roberts last year when Hall/Brooks were not available, I can see Vito's opinion being legit.

Haven’t heard much about Whitlock so far this spring. A little disappointing for a plug-and-play CB recruit.

He's less than 10 practices into FBS football. Give the kid some time to adjust to scheme and the game at this level. Remember these RS Freshmen like Crosby have been through an entire summer and fall of practices. Typically Year 2 is better for the JC kids anyways.

Very true. And the day I said that Vito mentioned him getting first team reps.
