Recruiting Class Rankings SMU and TCU

Postby DiamondM75 » Fri Oct 07, 2011 10:03 am

Can someone with Rivals and/or Scount subscriptions tell me how the football recruiting classes for SMU and TCU were ranked over the past 4 years?

Just curious.

I looked at their depth chart on Rivals. They have a total of 5 sophomores and 2 freshman starting this year. We have just as many freshman and sophomores getting as much playing time. Especially when you consider injuries. No offense but I'm sick of people parroting the notion that TCU was an inexperienced team. They had three seniors in the secondary and that was their major problem.

It is a shame they are losing their secondary to graduation. I wish they were returning.

Maybe some of them will get hurt in their next game and be out for the season. Wouldn't that qualify them for a medical redshirt so they could return next year? Does anyone know the rules on that?

FORGET THE REBUILDING YEAR STUFF.

They started 9 Seniors out of their 22, and that doesn't include the Senior kicker and punter. That's NOT a young team. We beat them straight up AT THEIR PLACE. They need to deal with it.
