From FWST:

Mansfield offensive lineman Derek Lilly (6-foot-3, 285 pounds) has committed to SMU. He missed five games this season after stretching his medial collateral ligament.

Slowly, they are rolling in. What is that 9?

Any relation?

No, but a good kid, good overall strength and decent speed (5.0/40) for his size.

Welcome to SMU, Derek!

About the only thing on the internet is that he was part of the Fort Worth Star Telegram Area Top 50 and had interest in Northwestern State University(Louisiana), Texas State Monument, Louisiana-Marilyn Monroe and OSU. We are recruiting with the big boys of the Southland Conference now and its only mid December.

Made 5atexasfootball.com's preseason "super list" of offensive linemen to watch in 2006.

Rivals confirms SMU commitment. Rates him at 5.1 and says Colorado St. also offered.

Colo. St blows these daze....but it's better than some of these other mickey mouse schools.

Can't have enough big uglies.
It used to be that we'd recruit them at 250 and hope they grow to 280. Here's another thick guy, who hopefully will only get bigger and stronger with more physical maturity.
(By the way, there's 2 L's, not 3 -- it's Lily, from what I've been able to find.)
Welcome to the Hilltop, Derek!

???????? Where did you find its Lily, just curious?

Is this guy only an O-lineman? I ask because Rivals lists Jim Gush as his recruiter, not Rusty Burns. Does he play any D-line?
