Thoughts on UNT's addition of Vaughns

[Harry]

It was a pretty big day in terms of news when it comes to UNT basketball yesterday with the Mean Green landing Vertail Vaughns, Karen Blair officially joining the Mike Petersen’s staff and the real zinger — Zach Peters visiting UNT today.

While we are waiting to see what happens with Peters, here are some thoughts on Vaughns.

I can see the concern with UNT lacking a lot of size at this point following the departure of Tony Mitchell and another forward who was a little on the small side in Roger Franklin, but going after and landing Vaughns was a solid move.

UNT really struggled to shoot the ball last season at 28.5 percent from 3-point range and could use another high-character, leadership kind of guy. UNT had a ton of those guys in the past in the Eric Tramiels of the world, but had a bit of a void there last year outside of Franklin.

Vaughns appears as if he can help address both concerns.

So, since his maturity and leadership are two of his biggest assets, IF this team sees a turnaround will the usual suspects give the players some credit or will it be a "see, told ya Benford was good" fest?

If players supposedly drug this thing down then shouldn't it stand to reason that they get some love for an uptick?

Believe tge hype, Emmitt!!!

It's a new year. Benford gets the credit if we won, and the players get the blame.

Don't you know the routine by now?
