Why only a UNT offer?
Did people back off due to grades / scores?

He did not have the ACT score to qualify until recently (well after signing day)

I bet he goes to corner. We had a walkon on the second team in the spring (granted JR and Montes were hurt). We need the depth in the secondary.

Second scariest position on the team, behind oline. It might be even scarier if they keep up their track record of terrible health.

This kid might need a redshirt, but I'll take an athletic guy with a laser 4.42 any day.

Is there a prospect / player we would remember from past years to whom you might compare him?

Altogether sounds like a good one and I hope he has a good career at SMU.

don't know-I do think he just might be the best athlete in the Class if you disregard size-kind of like -Bryan McCann from a few years ago. See also thread where he just won 3A UIL Long Jump Gold Medal.

With our secondary's health record over the last couple of years we definitely need as much help in the secondary as possible. Hope he gets a chance to redshirt though.

The reason we even notice the health of our secondary so much probably has to do with the fact that we haven't had more than 1 D1 CB on the roster at one time since the McCann/Moore days.

Kevin Johnson off to an impressive start

Great start of the 4th quarter today with the freshmen. Got very excited about @kenken1022Kj and how he dominated those 100's! #PonyUpTempo
