Great news! Welcome to SMU, Courtland!

Keep 'em coming!

[Stallion]

anybody know who his recruiting coach was?

[StallionsModelT]

He probably recruited himself like Gresham.

Did we sign him to play DB or WR? The highlights on the SMJU site seem to suggest that he might play WR for SMU.

I want tall, fast, physical safeties.

I agree. Worked out pretty well for Seattle this year

[East Coast Mustang]

No we need a 23rd wide receiver

Huge pickup, definitely an upgrade from Gaines. Every team in the world needs a tall, quick safety

[Stallion]

well if he's so perfect at Safety why did June say he might move OLB. Remember I know some of you love the NFL but those tall guys are freaks-not easy to locate in college at the non-BCS level. If they don't have the speed, hips and agility they can't play in the secondary. See Parks and Randolph. Everybody always drools about the tall guys-in SMU's experience the smaller guys are better. Greenbauer is definitely better than Randolph and every SMU CB starter has been better than Parks. I'm not in love with the comparison to NFL DBs until we can recruit better players
