A more balanced offense might be
a better fit for the team that lost sev-
eral players in the off-season and
made some key acquisitions to
replace them.
"Now with the talent we
have, both at the receiver and
running back position and
now a quarterback who has
run this system before, I think
we are going to see the full effect
of what that offense can be," Vil-
larreal said
The new starting quarterback is
Coach Dodge's son, Riley. He is a red
shirt freshman, which means his par-
ticipation was delayed a year in order
to lengthen his eligibility. He played
under his father at Southlake Carroll
High School when the team was win-
ning national championships.
Riley Dodge initially committed to play football at the
University of Texas in Austin, but decided to attend UNT
after his father accepted the coaching job here, Dodge said.
"Obviously he is a redshirt freshman, so there is going to
be a learning curve at the college level," Dodge said. "His
real strength is his versatility. There's not much we can't or I
haven't done with him on the field. He's very athletic and
a true dual-threat as far as being able to run as well."
The graduation of Mean Green star wide receiver
Casey Fitzgerald will put pressure on developing a
balanced offense. He made 114 catches last season
and broke many school and Sun Belt Conference
^ records in the two years he played at UNT.
Although having such a great pass catcher is
not necessarily a great thing, if you are not spreading
the ball around, Dodge said
"I love Casey Fitzgerald to death, but you don't want to be
too reliant on one particular skilled athlete," he said.
Watching the numbers
Dodge will be entering his third year with only three wins
