"SMU has apparently received a commitment from TE Craig Kuhrt 6-7,250, 5.0 Bastrop. Austin Area Prospects has a little info on him-11 catches this year for 99 yards.""

FOX 7: can you help us out with some insight on this kid?

Nice! Always good to have more big kids. This year's class is lookin' pretty meaty.

This makes five commitments so far - and last year, we didn't even have one at this point. Keep it up, coaches!

Two things to do with this kid:
1. Beef him up and give him a share of the O-Line.
2. Work on his size and weight, and hope he can be another Tony Gonzalez. Maybe Coach Dement could use him, and he could be our Julius Peppers/Ronald Curry/Charlie Ward type.

I was tied up with the Astros nosedive against the Braves this past week. As a result, I haven't been able to keep up with things the past few days. I'll call out to Bastrop and check on the details for you.

I saw him in action last year several times and he impressed me. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the Bears play any this year to give you a better report. But several coaches in his district raved to me about his potential before the year. And for those who aren't familiar with Bastrop, its a 4A school that plays in a relatively tough district southeast of Austin.

Oh yeah, here's the link to our profile of Craig that includes a game action pic:

One of Craig's coaches confirmed his commitment. I'm trying to talk to him directly and I'll post any updates on our Austin Area Prospects site.

Thanks Fox 7 for your interest and helpful updates.
