Is JOSH FIELDS coming back this year? If not, we may have a chance with Tatum Bell, Josh Fields, AND their big WR gone....
"Surgery may force OSU QB to redshirt
12:21 AM CDT on Monday, June 7, 2004
Associated Press
STILLWATER, Okla. – Bobby Reid, the prized recruit in Oklahoma State's incoming freshman class and the front-runner to assume the quarterback job for the Cowboys this season, could miss the season after undergoing surgery on his throwing shoulder.
Reid, who was rated among the top 50 high school recruits in the nation, enrolled at Oklahoma State early so he could participate in spring practice and have a better chance to start if incumbent Josh Fields left to play professional baseball.
But the 6-4, 220-pound Reid, of Galena Park near Houston, had arthroscopic surgery to repair torn cartilage in his right shoulder Thursday and probably will have to redshirt this season, The Oklahoman reported Sunday."

Whether Fields comes back depends on the Major League Baseball draft, which will be held today and tomorrow. The common thinking is that if he goes high -- and he's projected to go somewhere in the first round, maybe as high as 10-20 -- then he's gone. Most people seem to think that the only way he returns to Stillwater is if he nosedives down several rounds in the draft .... which won't happen.
If he's gone, and if Reid redshirts, I don't know who will play QB. But the Cowboys are loaded again this year. An upset would be nice, but it would take a monumental effort by the Ponies.

A chance for what, exactly? To keep it within twenty?

Please do not embarass yourself - i could lead OSU to victory in that game - and my time in the 40 is about a 5.5.
Focus on game 4 and after - do not go for the fools gold.

Fields will not be there next year. Reid is probably out for the season. This will have a huge effect on many of their games. Not the SMU game.

That's the NFL... Here in NCAA land, that isn't exactly how it works. However, I think we'll have a better showing than last year- I doubt if we prevail over OSU, but I don't think we'll be as embarrassed.
Support the Commitment! We're all SMU Mustangs fans- we should all be committed!

Yes... "..may have a chance" is a strikingly overt enthusiastic claim of victory.
"May"
and
"Chance"
are key words here, both used in the same sentence.
"We have a chance" would be > than "we may win", either of which are wildly more hopeful than "we may have a chance"
Funny how some posters read more into typed words than is actually there.
I still stand by this claim that without their big3, we have a BETTER chance than last year (see that word 'chance' in there?).
Now, if some posters think we have ZERO chance, then they might as well give up.
