Was UNT really recruiting

[catman12]

I don't pay much attention to UNT's recruiting efforts, but I'm sure some of you do. Does anyone know if UNT was making a serious push for Karrington Bush. The Sherman paper said he chose Texas State over North Texas, Houston, and TCU. I am a Whitewright boy and I sure would have liked to see Bush come to North Texas.

There were some posts at the beginning of the high school season and I said Bush would be a player to watch. I really didn't think he would get enough attention at a 2A school, but I guess he did. I saw a few of his games...he has break away speed and is a very strong running back. A severe ankle sprain kept him out of Whitewright's last two games. He played in their bi-district game, but was only about 60% if that. We'll see how he does at the next level.

Doubtful. Never see his name mentioned or listed. He probably had listed Houston, North Texas and TCU along with Texas State as schools he had an interest in.

Didn't seem like a DIV 1-A recruit to me.

I think we'll be hearing about him a few years from now though.

Karrington Bush=incredible. I'll never forget him kicking off then stripping the ball from the kickoff returner and taking it back for a TD versus Tom Bean.

He was, perhaps the most exciting player in 2A this season. His speed definately translated to Div-I...his size and strength...maybe not. But there is no question he is incredible. Texas State got a great player and I certainly wish all of them the best.
