Mean Green Blog

Now that the three-day marathon that is the Sun Belt Conference track meet is over, I am back with a deeper tan and a load of tidbits for the Mean Green Blog.

The first item of the day has to do with perhaps the favorite topic of the UNT faithful -- football recruiting. Rivals.com reported today that the Mean Green has offered a pair from Blinn JC that play defense, which was somewhat of a lost art last season at UNT.

Defensive tackle Sean Warren's only offer thus far is from the Mean Green, although Troy and SMU are also on his list. He has the size to be an impact player at 6-0, 292.

The other player is cornerback Bryant Nnabuife, who stands 6-2 and has 4.4 speed in the 40-yard dash. A total of eight schools are recruiting Nnabuife, but only UNT and Houston have offered a scholarship thus far.

The only other player UNT had offered was Plano athlete Rex Burkhead, who dropped the Mean Green from the list of schools he is considering that includes a host of national powerhouses, including Alabama, Auburn, Nebraska and Cal.
