  • New QB coach
    Hey guys, Mean Green (North Texas) fan here. Don’t let those stats fool you. Quinn was a favorite down here. His limited playing time was due to the fact that he came in as a walk-on but earned a scholarship later (a very difficult thing to do at QB) while the other QBs were moved to other positions. What stats don’t tell you is he had limited playing time because he was backing up a QB who set all the records at UNT and is now starting QB in the Canadian league. Let’s just say, he always produced when he came in despite the opponent. My buddy on the team said Quinn (5’11) could read any defense formation. His knowledge was off the charts. I remember when our stud QB went down with less than one minute in the half at the Iowa (Hawkeyes) UNT was down 9-6 and Quinn by running and throwing drove the Green 60 yards in three for the go ahead TD on the Iowa’s first team D. The crowd actually booed their 1st team D when going into the locker room at half!! A backup made them look silly. We eventually got our butts beat but Quinn did not see any action the rest of the game. Just a little background on him. I think Hawkins knows what he is doing and did his research.
