People just won’t leave SMU verbal commitment Trestan Ebner alone.

North Texas joined the Henderson receiver’s recruiting mix Thursday morning with a college football scholarship opportunity. It came on the heels of Syracuse offering Wednesday evening.

Ebner (5-11, 180), who announced the latest news through his personal Twitter account, became SMU’s very first 2017 commitment in December. Four of his six total offers arrived after he made his pledge.

Arkansas, Kansas and Illinois are the other schools that have standing offers out for Ebner.

The Mean Green program is in a transitional phase.

Former head coach Dan McCarney was fired midway through last season as the team sputtered toward a 1-11 record. Seth Littrell was hired as McCarney’s replacement in December.

Littrell served as North Carolina’s offensive coordinator the past two seasons and owned the same title at Indiana three campaigns ago. He picked up another nine years years of assistant coaching experience split between Texas Tech and Arizona.

The Mean Green coaching staff has a bit of East Texas flavor. Running backs coach Tommy Perry, a Tyler Lee graduate, was retained from McCarney’s staff.

North Texas has been to five bowl games through 20 years as a modern Division I program. It played FCS ball between 1979 and 1994.

Ebner helped Henderson to a 7-3 finish in 2015. The team missed the playoffs despite tying for the final playoff berth out of District 9-4A Division I, but ended the regular season with a 30-10 win over the league’s first-place finisher, Kilgore.

Henderson will once again compete in 9-4A D-I in 2016 along with Bullard, Carthage, Center, Chapel Hill, Kilgore and Palestine.

Ebner, like all current junior prospects, can officially sign with the college of his choosing on Feb. 1, 2017.

How in the heck did HC Babes get a hold of this kid (in Texas) to give an offer?

Well since Babers great grand-dad was the guide of the Lewis and Clark expedition he still might have some connections south of the Rio Grande.

Hey if they can play football we'll take them.

How in the heck did HC Babes get a hold of this kid (in Texas) to give an offer?

Probably because there are staff that are from Texas. Assistant Recruiting Coordinator Jeff Lepak and QC Offensive Coach Vincent Marshall are both from Texas.

Well hey its a fairly easy sell to kids in Texas. Ever hear of that school with the exciting offense, you know, Baylor? Well we're creating Baylor2.0 in the ACC, c'mon and have some fun!
