I heard back from all the pertinent parties I was looking for, so here is where UNT stands as of early this afternoon.

Jarmarcus Jarvis was recruited as a running back and cornerback. Where he ends up will depend on how he develops and who else UNT has at both spots.

He's 5-10, 200 and was a first-team all-district and all-parish selection.

You know, comments like the first one on Vito's blog are ridiculous, to say we are limping towards signing day. In the past, we had no idea who we had until signing day. I'm sure a lot of this last minute maneuvering occurred prior to other signing days but we were never privy to that information, and we were perfectly happy with our classes. Honestly, we really don't know what kind of class we have until they start to develop. Who thought Lemon would not only start, but play as well as he did without haaving a single penalty last year? I'm happy with every young man that signs with us and can't wait to see how they develop over the next 4 or 5 years. Let's read the 2017 edition of Dave Campbell's Texas Football to see the final analysis of this class.

Dunbar was a two star, we were Cobbs only offer, Fitzgerald was a walk on, Lemon was a late signee, Delgado was a walk on, etc... We really don't know what we have until they spend some time with us.

I have faith in this coaching staff, I really do. You have to believe in their ability to evaluate talent and that they are doing the very best they can with the resources at their disposal. I also like what they did with this class and the last one. We're not going the Juco route anymore were trying to build something that will last. We addressed a lot of key need areas in this class. I will share my thoughts on each of our signees and my thoughts on this class later.

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      Yes, foolish us fans for thinking players are here in the program and loyal to the school.

      It's easier for us to say it's fun since we're not the ones who have to recruit an entire new team every year, but it's honestly exciting to see how the new team is built. The max exodi of beloved players sucks, but in this new age losing guys like TP, Drez, Rubin and Aaron doesn't have to mean a several-year rebuild. Now we can "retool" and even get better. I think this year was more of a gut punch because it felt to me and many others that Rubin and Aaron were Mean Green for life. They've been the constant leaders throughout the past turnover. But even healthy we weren't the most talented team in the conference. And I trust Hodge. The past seven years Grant and Hodge have run a clean program and as much as I love the guys who have played for us, I trust Hodge and Forte will continue recruiting players who will be good representatives of the university, even if only for a year. I also agree we need two more PF's - at least one who can space the floor shooting 3's. Assuming we have at least three scholarships left, so assume we'll see another guard. I'd like to see us bring on one guy who's averaged 18PPG or more. Doesn't matter which position though it'd be a nice changeup for it to be a high scoring big man.

      The last home games of the 2023-24 school year

      Weather has become a factor in a lot of games this season. Wet spring has really made this softball season pleasant. Feel like we had several 90+ degree games last season.

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Here's what the conference tournament would look like if it started today. Finished 2nd or 3rd is the difference between having to win just two games in two days, or four games in four days. Wednesday, May 8 - First Round Game 1: No. 5 Wichita State vs No. 8 South Florida - 10 a.m. (ESPN+) Game 2: No. 4 Tulsa vs No. 9 UTSA - 1 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 3: No. 6 UAB vs No. 7 East Carolina - 4 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 4: No. 10 Memphis vs No. 3 North Texas - 7 p.m. (ESPN+) Thursday, May 9 - Second Round Game 5: Winner WSU/USF vs Winner Tulsa/UTSA - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 6: Winner UAB/ECU vs Winner Memphis/UNT - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Friday, May 10 - Semifinals Game 7: Winner WSU/USF/Tulsa/UTSA vs No. 1 FAU - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 8: Winner UAB/ECU/Memphis/UNT vs No. 2 Charlotte - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Saturday, May 11 - Championship Game 9: Winner Game 7 vs Winner Game 8 - 11 a.m. (ESPN2)

      Yes, win 2 of 3 in Charlotte and should be at least Top 2. If we do that and there's a three-way tie for first at 19-8, I'd imagine we'd take the top spot because we'd be 4-2 vs. the field, FAU 3-3, and Charlotte 2-4 in that hypothetical. Thanks! Wasn't able to watch that game, just kept up on Twitter.
