Andrew Galloway Sr. P-1L
David Haynes Sr-DB-3L
Jessie Henderson Sr-WR-3L
Patrick Henry-Sr.-DL-3L

Andrew McKinney Sr-RB-3L

I would think that these guys paid their dues. They deserve to be treated with respect. 6 of whom were with team 4 to 5 yrs. most under 2 coaching staffs.They worked hard and stuck it out, wanting to have a winning team. These were not the ones that acted out, laughing after lossing a game.

I think Bonilla and Lobo were walk-ons
Anyone else?

And yes. Have to give these guys credit. They tried hard till the end even though they were probably so sick of losing

Lobo was not a walk on...Bonilla was a walk on who earned a scholarship (I think his Jr year)

You threw me there for a minute. Walk-on's for their Degree's-Diploma?
But i see where others thought of walk on for getting to play for SMU.

Will BONILLA
Patrick HANDY

Let's give these guys the respect they deserve

And here is to Vincent Chase for doing what he needed to for the team ,and switching to tackle and doing a good job!

Vincent Chase and Tommy Poynter both will work out for pro scouts as blocking tight ends.

I count 11

Bonilla, Chase, Haynes, Henderson, Handy, Johnson, Lobo, Martin, McKinney, Morstead and Poynter.

Either way, your point is well taken.

So?

Seriously, why is that relevant? Why is it relevant if Bonilla was once a walk-on? The point of the original post was that some of the guys who we now seem to want to forget actually deserve a bit of recognition for their effort and dedication. (paraphrasing for Mimi, and please correct me if I'm wrong). I dont understand why some of you seem to feel they were less of a player because they started as walk-ons, isnt what they did here once they were on the field more important than how they got here to begin with?

I was just adding on to SMU21TCU10's Lobo/Bonilla comment. Morstead's a nice guy, what the hell are you getting all riled up for...Nobody said they're less of a player because they're walk-ons...Honestly, if anything I admire them for working that much harder to get a scholarship.
