Tulsa Dominance
Posted: Tue Sep 11, 2007 3:11 pmProbably belongs in Recruiting page, but this morning I was in a meeting with a guy tied into Smithson Valley program and Tulsa apparently is getting ready to pick up another stud defensive recruit. Tulsa already has RB from Reagan that scored 7 TDs in playoff game last year. Tulsa and UTEP recruit and sign San Antonio area kids regularly.
I vented to General Patton and others at our tailgate before Saturday's game, but why does SMU have no presence in San Antonio area, especially at Smithson Valley, Madison (who are both state top 10), Judson etc. When you speak to the people at those schools they all say the same thing -- only Texas schools that didn't call or send letters on recruits were Rice and SMU. There are other players outside of Dallas area and quite frankly some we have signed from Dallas area only just haven't worked out.
