Losing 2* commits to UTEP because "there are no coaches there. I mean none."

Don't hahaha too much. Our committments are just verbal until they sign on the dotted line in February.

I agree, let's not laugh too much until we get "our guys" signed...but, it does make one smile just a little at SMU's "state of affairs". I wonder if they have any recruits that we should be talking with at this time due to the coaching "situation"? I am sure that some of the SMU recruits could definitely play for UNT. What do you think?

BTW...if I think about this, you can be 100% sure that Coach Dodge and his staff are giving it the "once over".

Good point. There is either dead period or quiet period through Jan. 12, but if SMU does not have a coach by the 13th, I imagine a whole lot of coaches will be coming after their recruits.

What, are you kidding? Of course ANY of SMU's commits could play for NT.

Afterall, if they de-commit from SMU they obviously weren't good enough to begin with...and would be better suited for a program like NT. <_<

Very funny...but, having watched SMU play over the last few years....they have several players who I do not think could play for Dodge at UNT.....so, I do not think "all" the SMU recruits "could" play for UNT...some just are not the "right" fit for the program. Remember...UT didn't think that Chase Daniel "fit" at Texas! I wonder if they changed their minds after this season???? My guess, probably not...I don't think Chase Daniel would "fit" at every D-1 school in the country...that's why R. Dodge was recruited at Texas as an "athlete", not a QB. Their loss...UNT's gain...I think R. Dodge will be a gREAT addition to the UNT squad...wherever his dad decides he should play!

GO MEAN GREEN!
