Posted: Mon Feb 24, 2003 3:58 pmYou didn't? I saw it mentioned on the other board, for what it's worth, and some recruiting magazine site that did an article on all the Denton Ryan guys. Battle and Moss got all the headlines, of course, and the other receiver (Philip Jones or something?) also got a little more pub than Dowdy, but they said he definitely had a D-I body and ability. If I remember correctly (this is several months back now), I think the article mentioned "serious interest" (no idea how serious, of course) from SMU, TCU, Texas Tech, Arkansas and .... Mizzou maybe? I think LaTech or Louisiana-Lafayette also was in there someplace, but maybe that was on one of the other guys.

Posted: Fri Feb 28, 2003 12:33 pmOne of the great mysteries of recruiting this past season. He is big, strong and fast. 6-5 about 220 with good hands. Didn't even sign with a juco as far as I can tell. Maybe he is waiting on scores or grades.

Posted: Fri Feb 28, 2003 12:48 pmI remember someone stating on this board that Bennett liked Dowdy a lot.
