52 tackles on the year. 8 Sacks. 1 Caused Fumble.

Honored as POW from DMN for his game against Euless Trinity

"He plays every play with fanatical effort. He’s on the inside, getting double-teamed and knocked down, so it’s not like he had five tackles and a sack coming off the edge.” — Bob Wager"

DMN

6-1 240 lbs. could he be a linebacker??

There is video of him here at 1:56 sacking Arlington Lamar's QB. Again with coverage at 3:55

So this is three committments in a row with only D2 offers or below? I believe we have good coaches, but people need to be realistic that this recruiting season has been a little on the disappointing side.

Until I get a better sense of how well Mac appraises talent, I will hold my opinion either way. So far, I like what he has done with the talent he has, so that gives me hope that he knows what he is doing in recruiting it.

When you have 3 late decommits, the quality is obviously going to slip with their replacements. That is not to say that they won't be successful here.

EDIT: I hope these kids prove everyone wrong.

I believe Freddie was a Tech decommit.

Anyone remember what other teams recruit Patrick Cobbs, Casey Fitzgerald, Brandon Kennedy, Chris Hurd, Andy Brewster, etc..? Just sayin.

By contrast, what teams recruited Alonzo Horton, Kylee Hill, Dawaylon Cook, etc..?

EXACTLY...to get hung up on star ratings at this point is really a tad silly. I think we all would like to have 20+ 5-star rated kids signing tomorrow so we could puff our collective chests out and say..."look at us", but that will not be the case. I am pretty darn pleased with the commits UNT has right now...we'll see how many sign tomorrow...then we will all have a much better feel for the POTENTIAL of this class...that's all it is folks, potential, until they put the pads on, decide mentally that D-1 football is for them, get used to college ball and college academics, handle Coach Mac's in-and-off season programs and go out and play the game. If POTENTIAL were all that mattered UT would have a recent string of national championship banners hanging in Austin!

From what I have seen so far, Coach mac and Company know what they are doing. I'll leave it to them to get all they can from the entire team and develop UNT's so-called "lower star and no star" recruits into actual 5-star players!

Pending name change to The Armadillos? :lol: Naw, Coach Mac is just getting started here, so I'll reserve judgement until 2013. Just hope that the kid's ready to setup shop in the weight room/training table, or has the speed and quickness to move to LB. Welcome aboard!

....and from the same era Evan Cardwell from little 2-A Hutto, and the hardest working RB (besides Patrick Cobbs) to play at NT, James Mitchell (#37 on your program) from Liberty Christian.

Most recently. Who ever heard of Victor Gill (Argyle), and Aaron Fortenberry (2-A Era) before they arrived at NT.

Overachievers one and all.

Let's hope Mr. Haboul joins this group before he leaves NT.

Exactly. I'd rather have a team full of players like this that realize they need to work to maximize their talent and don't shy away from hard work.

Mustafa Habol also played full back in Arlingon Martins offense. Mustafa scored a TD and

a two point conversion his senior year. Great blocker out of the backfield.

In the NT recruiting offers, there were a couple of true full backs the staff was recruiting and offered

schoarships to.

No true FB's signed with North Texas.

Just wondering, would the staff try Mustafa at Full Back?

I would not mind having a 6-1, 250lbs fullback on the team.

I guess Mac believes he can take these 250 pound kids and make due at the DT position. I really hope their frames are capable of holding another 30 pounds and can still maintain their quickness. I like that both this kid as well as Sutton play with a mean streak, but given the fact that we only have 3 DT's on scholarship who can contribute next season, I don't know if I would have gone this route. We will be in a lot of trouble if Boutwell, Cantly or Abbe go down next season.

      Lambert? You mean that guy left his park ranger job to get back into the game? You better call Eric Morris. We are going to need his toughness on defense at LB.

      Any word on Buggs?

      This may be why he is in the portal. Maybe he was encouraged to enter the portal to open up a spot for a better player.

      You've heard of Hook 'em, Gig 'em, Wreck 'em, Sic'em, what about...

      Scrap'em is (or was) a thing. I remember in the late 90s there was some sort of Administration decision that "Scrap'em Eagles" would be our official battle cry. Probably only a few people were ever aware of it, but Talons got the memo.

      SB at Charlotte (5/3-5/24)

      It all comes down to this. The softball ladies are a game behind FAU and Charlotte for first place in the conference. The Mean Green already own the tiebreaker 2-1 with FAU, so winning two of three in Charlotte this weekend would also be huge in that it would give the ladies the tiebreaker over both teams in case there is a three-way tie at 19-8. The biggest reason to try to take two of three in Charlotte is that second and third place in the conference is the difference between having to win just two games in two days to make it to the NCAA Tournament, or four games in four days. We can't finish lower than third. Fourth place Tulsa is 3 games behind UNT, and we swept them earlier in the year. Tulsa plays at FAU this weekend. Charlotte will be a tough out. Last year by way of playing one fewer conference game due to a rainout, they finished with one loss fewer than UNT and won the regular season title. However, we took two of three at home to the 49ers before beating them again in the conference tournament. They still made it to the NCAA Tournament as an at-large. This year, Charlotte has taken 2 of 3 at USF and vs. Wichita State while sweeping the likes of UAB and Tulsa, and are on an 11-game win streak overall. Standings going into the final weekend. The conference tournament is May 8-11 in Wichita. If we make it to the final on Saturday at 11 am, be prepared to drop everything and head up to Kansas to support! SCHOOL CONF CPCT. OVERALL PCT.
