UNT's McCarney impressed by Louisiana Tech QB

DENTON — UNT coach Dan McCarney has been impressed with the spark Ryan Higgins has provided since taking over as Louisiana Tech’s starting quarterback.

The redshirt freshman is expected to make his fourth start when UNT visits Ruston. Higgins, who replaced Denton Ryan grad Scotty Young, has thrown for 776 yards and three touchdowns.

“They are doing a better job of executing their offense and are scoring more points,” McCarney said. “They are running a lot of zone read.”
