Does this mean we're done? I read somewhere on this board that we're giving 19 'ships this year, and I count 19 on this list. And what about the guy from Port Arthur, Daniel Francis? Is he a Mustang? Does this mean we're going to grey-shirt someone?

Are players on campus this weekend? Or is recruiting season over? Even if it is, I like the looks of this class, and can't wait for next year's.

[MustangFan]

I've heard the same thing - 19 scholarships.
If that's true, this is our class. Not quite as good as it could have been, but still the best in years.

[50's PONY]

Wake up people! David page gone -- one scholarship more! John David Blagg gone --one scholarship more! Maybe others -- more scholarships!

[Boston Pony]

My guess is that we have 21-22 ships. It would be great to pull some of the big guys back into the fold or get some more. The real need is in the D line. The early signed 'beef' was a real positive sign. Perhaps some of the guys are thinking about sitting for 2-3 years at another school or possibly playing in a year at SMU... Let's keep up the pressure.

[MustangFan]

Thanks, 50's. Wasn't paying close attention. Forgot about Page and Blagg.

[SMUPonyFan]

Just because Blagg is not playing does not mean that he lost his scholarship. I am not sure if he did or not, but there is a chance they still have kept him on. Maybe Graypony or someone that knows for sure could answer that question for us.

Also, I heard a rumor that Matt Terry may not have received a grayshirt after all. Is that true?

[50's PONY]

Nobody said he lost his scolarship. If he is unable to play because of a medical problem then he can remain on scholarship -- but not have it count against the 85!

[GrapevineMustang]

Didn't know that, 50s - thanks for the scoop.

[SMUPonyFan]

I did not know that either. I thought that football has a certain number to give out and if they use them for football or for injured players who have hung it up it still counts. I am not second guessing you, but are you sure about that? If so, thanks for the clarification, learn something new everyday.

Medicals do not count against the 85 and lets not forget russ davis walked off and that gives us one more

[ClassOf81]

Where did Russ Davis go? Why did he leave? I thought he was in line to be the starting punted for the next four years.

[ponystudent]

Everything I have heard is that he couldn't get his act together this past season and I have heard that he quit the team. Not confirmed, but that is the word.

[ClassOf81]

You mean discipline? Grades?
Is he off the team, or entirely out of school?
