SMU Has Last Minute Shot at Top RB

[mrydel]

originally committed to Texas and then switched it to Louisville cause that is where his family is from. Hopefully we can seal the deal. We could use some help at RB..

This is interesting to me. He originally was going to UT, then switched to Louisville, now the Louisville coach is going to Texas, but he's not coming? If he was good enough for UT, but then switched to UL and liked the coach, wonder why he isn't going to UT now?

Not arguing, just curious.

I imagine UT was full about a year ago.

RB/FB Daniel Gresham (@DanielGresham33) is now down to #PonyUp & #BirdsUp. A decision will come Sunday

Thank you Stallion!

I came to the Recruiting boards looking to add to my cricket collection..

And I find this! Good work Stallion!

Like I said earlier, lock it down. Losing this guy to UTSA is unacceptable. Make it happen.

Hell, we might even be able to move Line, P. to LB if our RB 3-deep is Shead, Nlemchi, and Gresham

[mrydel]

I think Line, P. stays at RB. There are times when you have to pass and you need a good pass blocker, especially with our OL. He is the best blocking RB we have. You can use others when you have run or pass options but we need to try and keep the QB upright when in passing situations.

I'm going to go ahead and take full credit for Gresham's career at SMU if he commits to the Mustangs
If you'll remember Saturday SAPony(?) or the fan close to the UTSA program mentioned an unnamed high profile RB who was visiting UTSA and had offers from all the bigs. Put 2 + 2 together and stated that he must be talking about Daniel Gresham and that June ought to give him a call once he got back from his world tour.
OBVIOUSLY, Gresham read my post-because we know "recruits all read these boards" and made the call himself
I would have made the call before June knew who this guy was. SA Pony will receive a "Finder's Fee". Thank god all recruits read Ponyfans

I'll take beer during and after basketball game to celebrate hopefully a win over Memphis as the "finders fee." Will be coming up again to Moody to see a victory

More offers than the last two classes put together

“It was a spur of the moment thing. When I talked to the SMU coaches, they told me they saw my tape and were interested early on, but they didn’t think they had a chance at me because of my offers so they never got in contact with me,” Gresham said. “But with everything out of whack, they said they were definitely still interested in me.”

Wow. That's just pathetic. Hope they don't teach the "Let's not try because we don't have a chance" mentality to our players.

Hopefully they were just trying to flatter the guy. Jeez...

Probably not flattering the guy because I had a football coach tell me the same thing about another player. And Ponyscott had another coach say the same thing to him.

Innocent until proven guilty, right... But yeah, kind of hard to give them the benefit of the doubt when you keep reading stories like this. There's the potential that we might see a few surprises on signing day, but we can't rely on gift horses like this potential windfall and Gilbert to keep falling into our laps.

Looks like Traylon Shead is healthy now as well.

Shead may be healthy, but I guess the Morning News missed the little fact that Shead wasn't enrolled at SMU this year. Oops!
