That hand signal is the goofiest thing ever - have thought so for years. They need to re-think that since it really looks high school. If the shoe fits I guess....

Like AZ State, right? Goofiest one of all is the aggie thumbs up. Pony ears aren't exactly earth shattering.

SMU got the guy that Morris had been recruiting at Clemson, and UH got the guy Herman had been recruiting at OSU. Works out well for both schools.

BTW, who's the Ohio State QB commitment? I don't see that they have one at the moment.

Tristan Wallace.

And UTEP's hand signal is the dumbest. It's "hang loose" but somehow supposed to be a pick ax. Allegedly excels for nose mining operations.

Yeah, I suppose seeing teams start Ware, Klinger, Kolb and Keenum would make that statement true. Winning, on the other hand...

When all the UH players fail to sustain NFL success they won't have anything but lackluster degrees to lean on.

Sells was ready to commit to SMU about two weeks ago, but we told him to wait and then took Moore's commitment instead.

Which of those former Houston QBs is a starter in the NFL? Last I saw Kolb was getting cut by AZ.

I bet Kolb and Keenum wish they would have attended SMU for two years and then transferred to Sam Houston State like Josh McCown, who will be cashing a $5.25 Million check from the Bucs this year.

I hope UH enjoyed all of those years where the SMU coaching staff didn't bother recruiting - as that time has passed...

It is impressive how many "top 10" QBs UH has produced.

I was making the reference that they started for a team at some point. The last QB to start a game would have been Keenum. Other than that, they haven't had jack.

What about SMU QB commit, Collin Rock?

http://houston.scout.com/story/1542677- ... its-to-smu

I suppose Andy Dalton and TCU is as close to QB-U from Texas over the last decade. At least UH has a player in the League as do the Horns and Bears. Garrett Gilbert's still with the Rams, right?

Gilbert is with the Patriots- he even got a SB ring last year

He is being recruited as an athlete.

From the article:
The quarterback will come to SMU as an athlete, but is excited to get to work on helping with the SMU class and to camp at SMU.
“I’ll be up in there camp in July and I guess I’ll get some evaluation there and what position they want me to work on and what me to do,” Rock said. “Whatever they need me to play, I can play it.”
