What's the level of certainty that Kapita makes it to campus in the fall? As an SMU fan I'm especially gun shy about high-profile recruits with academic red flags. They seem to not make it to campus or else transfer away.

Where is the the BALC Section?

Subscribe. You can still chat here for free. Helps the program from a recruiting standpoint. And the info is great.

How does it help recruiting? Just by adding more money to get better writers?

Honest question, not trying to pick a fight.

It's helpful in two respects.

1.) In theory, more ...

To be clear, we should absolutely appeal if we can get a decision by March, which seems reasonable, right? But if not, playing on a borrowed bid is recruiting suicide.

we also made a deep tournament run in '56.. and no one cares about that because we sucked for a long time afterward. I'd rather build slowly and the "right way" than win 2 games in the tournament and push out the dark cloud for another year.

Also, what are MK and Nic going to do, change teams mid ...

Agree with this silver linings approach. If we win 25+ games this year, we look great and end the season on a high, while the NCAA looks bad for excluding a top-15 team from the tournament. If an appeal would truly risk postponing our penalty to 2016-2017, I would hate to mortgage our future for a ...

If there's a bar sure to have the game featured, please let me know.

Side note: It would be cool to have a pinned list of bars in each major U.S. city where SMU fans watch the game.

There are some rowdy MOFOs in 202, and they're all good lookin' too!

I was one of these said rowdy mofos in 202, and we got absolutely hammered on pricing. It was one $250 donation for our whole block (10 tickets) and now it's a $250 donation per seat. The all-in cost per seat is ~$500 now which ...

Probation as in post-season ban??

Better than playing Lamar, UIC, and Monmouth

or Sandstorm but I prefer to save that for the second half

Beats that would work real nice:

who gon stop me - kanye/jay-z
Harder than you think - public enemy
Work - Gang Starr

SMU has 7 returning players who have already started in their college career-didn't Ojeleye start a few games too early in the season at Duke-he would make 8. That's a lot of experience for a Hall of Fame Coach to mold around the AAC Player of the Year and probably the best big man in the AAC ...

nothing on this board could be considered credible evidence for an ncaa investigation.... and contrary to popular belief the ncaa compliance officers are not on PonyFans

think MK is going to be the x-factor next year. I could stomach losing keith much easier. Obviously we hope our recruits and transfers pan out to be everything we thought they could be, but that's rarely the case.
