Didn’t you state definitively a few hours ago in another thread that SMU would *not* give him all he needed? Why state it as a question here?

Telling recruits to decommit while employed at SMU should be enough to have wrath at the SOB, but to do that against your biggest football rival only the devil does that. There are certain unwritten rules in sports, and coaches at the biggest rivals don’t go to the other rival. You don’t see a HC at Ohio State to go Michigan or Vice versa, or NC / Duke, Texas / A&M, or in other sports a coach at Barcelona to Madrid, it just doesn’t happen because it is assumed this is never considered when you assume the face of the program. I was fooled by SD and wish him nothing but failure not just because it’s TCU but because of what he did. Actions speak louder than words and he’s basically told SMU to screw itself. Any self respecting alum, fan should find this unacceptable.
That’s a P5 school to a P5 school. This is a non P5 school to a P 5 school. Completely different scenario. This is more like going from FIU to coach at Florida State.

My question is the sentence that ends with a question mark.
