3 star 5.5 rating. 6-4, 200 4.6 Had offers from Arizona, Arizona St, Iowa, Iowa St, Minnesota, Washington St. and others-at least a one time. UTEP is the first team to get to 3 stars in CUSA West. UTEP got 9 commitments from the Metroplex. Apparently plans to play Basketball as well.

Did we even recruit this guy? Were there some academic issues?

For some reason SMU does not recruit DISD. TCU and the rest of our competition does though and it shows on the field.

How about this fact:

55% of Hispanic Freshman in DISD do not graduate
60% of African American Freshmen in DISD do not graduate
19% of Whites do not graduate.

Could it be that we cannot get them into school?

Many of the DISD 'athletes' may 'graduate' beyond their non-athlete brethren on a statistical scale, but they are not competent graduates by virtue of their [unbiased] test scores.
