Closing Under June Jones

As official visit season shifts into high gear, I always get anxious we might lose a few of our better commits. But off the top of my head, I can only think of one recruit we've lost during the JJ era, that purple whore who's name escapes me, from Everman who leveraged us to get a TCU offer.

Am I missing anyone (not including Swope who was basically pushed out the door when offered a grey shirt by SMU).

We have a lot more to lose this year, so hopefully the coaches continue with their high closing rates.

I think you mean Clifton Murphy, but he was not from Everman. Also lost Carter Wall last year..that makes 2 losses to the frogs. Wayne Frazier pulled the switch a roo close to signing day when he switched to UTEP.

Aww yes, Clifton Murphy from Little Elm. I forgot about Carter Wall switching. If you asked me before you reminded me, I would have told you he was red shirting for SMU, but I remember now that he went to the purple side.

I don't recall Wayne Frazier at all. We definitely DNWHA if that is the kind of decisions he makes.

So we're looking at losing about one a year with the occasional mentally disturbed individual such as Wayne (with a name like Wayne...)

Clifton Murray never passed the WDWHA Committe. His application was submitted on a Thursday when he committed to SMU but was rejected by the next Saturday when he switched to TCU. Mrydel was on drinking binge and dropped the ball on late notification.
