Leander defensive end Michael Epley verbally committed to Southern Methodist University on Saturday night, finalizing his college football plans before his senior season with the Lions.
“It’s just a huge relief and gives me more time to focus on next year, getting better and working toward our goal of a state championship,†he said.
Epley also had a scholarship offer from Rice and a couple Big 12 schools were showing interest, including Oklahoma State and Kansas. But the defensive end made the decision to attend the Dallas-based school after a visit on Thursday and made the phone call Saturday evening.
