Great to see both these kids commit to SMU. And I love the Houston Lamar thing our staff seems to having going.

I've seen a post or two on here recently about signs of a renewed commitment to recruiting (earlier jr days, etc.). I'm no recruiting expert, but it does seem like we're off to a good start for 2014. What do others think?

Very good to see this staff finally getting after it early in recruiting.

Lamar ought to be a very interesting track team to watch this spring. Darrel Colbert actually won the District Triple Jump as a FRESHMAN, Shelby Walker won the 400 Meters and 400 Relay as a SOPHOMORE, Braylon Hyder came in 3rd in the Discus as a SOPHOMORE. Lancaster has been scoring points in the sprints and relays as a Junior. Shelby Walker is already running in high 22.82 at a January 200 Meters race last month as a Junior -that's very early and usually those numbers drop significantly later in the Spring as the training and weather improve. I would think he could get into the 21s at least as a Junior

Sounds like Coach Phillips is making an impact in Houston for us. Great to see!

Good to get these guys. Walker shows Houston and Tulsa offers.
Welcome to SMU!

Walker's on the small side 6'0" 165, but 4.4 speed I likee. Can't teach speed. Colbert is an interesting commitment. Sounds like JJ is thinking of reading Art Briles playbook.

They're listing Walker as a 3-star now on Rivals' list of top WRs.
