First Team All-SWJCFC LB. Had 93 Tackles 2 sacks(9 games). Against Ranger JC had an Int and returned fumble for 23 yard TD. I high school played a little hoops and was athletic enough to score 22 points in one game I saw.

Welcome to SMU!

A LB who runs a 4.5? I'll take that. Looks like he's pretty solid, too.
Where did he play?

I think it's sometime next week. Didn't someone say it's the 21st?

As I recall, we now have commitments from:
QB Zac Rhoades
OL Lee Gonzalez
OL Joe Holmes
LB Damon Hurst
and if that guy from Denton, Andrew Sowe, is a scholarship guy, then he's in there, too (LB? WR?)

Even if he counts, we're sitting on 40 percent big men. Clearly the coaches are consulting BUS as they construct this class.

Believe Juco signing day is the 21st so next wednesday...

That makes four so far including the two JUCOs.

Am I smoking something to think that 4.5 is pretty fast for a guy who weighs 220? Nnabuife MIGHT be that fast, but he's MAYBE 210. Rico Harris (knees) and D.D. Lee can't claim 4.5s. I don't think Reggie Carrington can, either. I would think Wilton McCray is the only LB on the roster who can run with this guy, if that time is accurate. Until someone moves positions (Bryce Hudman?), that is.

He's the one in red, intercepting a pass.

Here he goes, trying to beat the crap out of another quarterback.
