Haven't had time to digest everything, but a couple of things jump out:

Cedric Lancaster and Deion Sanders, each of whom played some CB and WR last year, are listed as WRs.

WR Myron Gailliard has changed his number from 15 to 22.

• Gailliard's old number, is now being worn by WR Alex Honey, who wore 88 last year as a redshirt.

• Freshman RB Aphonso Thomas will wear No. 25.

Keyfer Roberts, who has played OL, TE and DL since arriving at SMU, is listed as a TE.

• New DB: Brent Freeman, a 5-10, 193-pound sophomore who transferred from North Central College.

• New P: Davis Luster, a 6-2, 191-pound redshirt freshman from Montgomery Bell Academy in Nashville, Tenn.

• New LB: Andrew Adams, a 6-0, 223-pound true freshman from Little Rock Central High School in Little Rock, Ark.

• There has been speculation about redshirt freshmen Delontae Scott and Michael Scott, whether they will play LB or DE. They're both listed as DEs.

• After a stint at TE, Tony Richards (now listed at 6-5, 251) is listed as an OL.

• LB Carlos Carroll has changed his number from 40 to 55.

• New OL: Rex Printz (6-3, 315) a junior transfer from Marble Falls, Texas.

• New WR: Christian Biedenharn, (6-0, 188) a transfer from Sewanee.

• New WR: Austin Rolfe (6-0, 189) true freshman from Nashville, Tenn.

Tradition!!

Seriously, it is the new normal with modern college offenses. Simply put, a team that runs the type of offense we do needs more WRs than you think - even if it is just 4 practice.

TCU 's roster link: http://www.gofrogs.com/sports/m-footbl/ ... l-mtt.html
I didn't bother to count, but they must have close to 30 WRs.

It's all about "athletes" now. The best will stay at receiver, others will get moved.

yeah I actually brought Printz up about a month ago because he announced that he would be attending SMU on twitter-never really determined if he was a walkon or scholarship guy.
