North Garland offensive lineman Jimmy Chase said Thursday afternoon that he has committed to SMU.

Chase (6-3, 260) is another recruit who is drinking the June Jones' kool-aid.

"SMU is bringing a great coach," Chase said. "And his whole staff is great. I wanted to see what they brought to the table."

Chase picked the Mustangs over Iowa State, Iowa, Abilene Christian, Louisiana-Monroe and Prairie View A&M.


The Kool-Aid is starting to taste a little better.

And I forgot Odiari when I made this post. Although I haven't read an article that says he's actually committed, just numerous folks on this board with some credible claims.

Vincent Chase? He seemed to have offers equal to the best in the state at least.

The Dallas Morning News also has it. And it does not print commitments unless the reporter gets it from the player.

So in my mind, Thompson's good to go.

Pretty weak report from Todd Wills.
