I don't know how many are legitimate 1-A athletes or, in some cases, whether North Texas' interest is reciprocal. Fourteen on that list have received offers.

There seems to be a lot more interest in the Mean Green this early than in years past.

Thank you for this list breakdown. Decent start for sure.

It appears lots of non-aq schools are getting more of a head start... that school to the south has a commit from cali, Houston has 3 already...

We must have more offers out there if junior day is any indicator. It will be interesting to see how we do this year in recruiting. For us to even think about moving on up out of the Sunbelt, this is how we do it. Keep winning some recruiting battles with aq and better non-aq schools, and things will get better. I don't think we have seen a coaching staff that can maximize potential like Dan, chico, and company will. Of course this is somewhat coolaid induced, but I really think we will see a difference.

Scout has 44 showing interest in u of nt.

Why do defensive tackles hate the University of North Texas?

it seems like dt's are the most valuable limited resource in this world for college's. I bet perception will adjust over the next year. Maybe this is just wishful thinking. If this doesn't change, yes, we will be in trouble.

I think this will change after this season in the new stadjum.

I do too, and I am also pleased with those that we recently signed and will be entering school in the fall. Although, I don't expect them to contribute for a year or two.

I always felt like it was linebackers.

Interesting note, Southern California is losing two football scholies because of NCAA rulings. Yet ,they now have 33 football commitments for next year. This could mean several kids will be looking for a place to go next fall.
