Things candidates may want to remember…

A. Baylor’s rise to prominence, the new stadium at Houston, TCU’s offensive philosophical change all affect recruiting.

B. American Athletic Conference opponents Memphis and Tulane are heading in the right direction.

C. Nobody should be overly concerned about conference opponents UConn, USF, Tulsa, and Temple. UCF and Cincinnati are the two heavyweights in the conference.

D. SMU has virtually zero social media presence. The program currently lacks the “coolness factor.”

E. Is there a talented quarterback on campus?

F. Is this a true major rebuilding job?
