Sweet! We've seemingly been the leaders here for a while but good to see him pull the trigger. Another lengthy corner.

[GMoney]

Let me guess, now tcu will offer him!

[MeanGreenTexan]

Welcome aboard Garrett!

Story updated.

Im not sure Garrett Davis is a solid commit. He is visiting la tech next Friday and I see where he picked up and offer from Houston. He loves tcu and wants an offer from them.

It would be his loss and mistake if he goes to some of those programs.

If you were a high school kid, wouldn't you want to take as many visits as allowed by the rules?? Even if I was a "Solid verbal" I would sure as heck want to travel wherever I could for free and see different places I may or may not otherwise see.

Rivals shows offers from North Texas, Houston, Louisiana Tech, New Mexico, and UTEP. We need to win recruiting battles against these programs.

I thought about that, but when I saw la tech...come on...

Houston is all of a sudden in the mix too? He's opening up his recruiting...trying to pull out that TCU offer. Nothing wrong with that either. The rivals article says he is a big TCU fan.

Unt needs to have a plan b and c.

Didn't TCU lose two commits yesterday ?

[SUMG]

None of the three sites (Rivals, Scout or ESPN) show Davis as a commit. Has he decommitted...?

8, 2013"Committed"I'd like to keep Davis. He's a good corner and has good run support ability, but I hope we're still recruiting Howard Wilson from DeSoto. Some on here have said that he wants to commit to UNT but his mom wants him to stay committed and go to La Tech.

I gotta wonder if we've stopped pushing to get Nick Orr and Desmond White. We have only a handful of scholarships left and they're not big bodies.

I think Nick Orr is a guy we'd make room for. As for White, as long as we can keep our slots (Davis and Adams) and Willie Ivery, we don't need White IMO.

[emmitt01]

Not showing as a commit on rivals.

Then again, neither is Willie Ivery

I don't think he ever has. But it's a little strange that recruiting websites are doing stories on offers he's picking up, and they are never told that he's committed to UNT.

With the kind of speed I understand White has I don't think Coach McCarney would ever turn down. Good to great team speed is what will separate North Texas from all those schools we say we don't want to be associated with. It sure did for Boise State.

Not comparing this recruiting story with White, but North Texas is the school that once turned down Spud Webb for a basketball scholarship back in the day. Yes, I know.....quite unbelievable and that happening during our much too long "Totally Brain Dead & W/O A Clue About College Varsity Sports" era in Denton.

I don't know, I disagree. I don't think White has the gamebreaking speed that some on here think he does. He's a lot more impressive when it comes to elusiveness than pure top end speed. I really think Ivery is faster.

Also, I really hope we keep Garrett Davis. He would be a really good fit in our defense and I think he'd be a really good cornerback on the far side of the field and Andrew Jones (our other cornerback) would be a really good short side of the field cornerback. Davis has the athleticism, size, and strength to play either really.

Tweet seys Garrett flipped to UH and Wilson joined him:

UofH with a big day in recruiting as they gained commitments from Red Oak CB Garret Davis and @DeSotoUFootball CB Howard Wilson.
