Yes best trio of Offensive Lineman signed in 3 decades-all 3 are quality P5 level recruits-they are generally considered tackles but Howerton also played Center as a Junior and really is exactly the type that could play at every position on the Line. Very versatile which Morris has said over and over that he looks for. This is a GREAT GROUP-probably the highlite of this recruiting Class-not sexy but essential in making SMU an offensive powerhouse. See Dallas Cowboys. We have all the ingredients to build a nationally ranked Offensive-now we just need some time for the Cake to Bake

Picked up a big one and lost a big one, so I guess today is a wash. Jones has to be a big loss for this staff, had him in the bag for a long time, Houston loses Tom Herman and almost the whole staff, players decommitting at a record rate... And we still lose him. A local kid at that.

yeah but we've got DEs lining up 3 deep. In the big picture getting top notch Offensive Lineman are going to be a bigger addition. Jones was a great prospect though-maybe he was going to slide inside

I agree, plus, if I would have had my choice between the two I would have taken Huhn.

Yep. OL depth finally looks like it is coming.

Now, we need some LB depth.

Seems like we are adding quality to replace quality. Another positive step in our ongoing recruiting growth.

The most positive thing about this to me is that it is a sign that the staff is still recruiting. I'm wary of another June/ASU scenario
