There are five TX recruits still uncommitted. TCU has offers out to all five. Houston has offers out to three. Baylor offers out to two. SMU has no offers to the five. Perhaps the WNDWHA committee eliminated these guys early on or our staff is strictly focusing on the DIR recruits.

We have put 100% of our resources into recruiting rugby players.

You'd think the word would be out on our process by now...it's a real head-scratcher...

BTW, UTSA has offers out to two. They won't get them but at least their staff is taking a swing.

I haven't counted, but it seems like someone posted that we have 7 scholarships graduating. If that's true, then with 18 commitments, we're already in severe juggling mode.

However, since we lost the QB commit to UCF, you'd think that we'd have room for at least one more local Top 250.

I've got at least 14 graduating and maybe more. Were Ryan Walker and Jeremy Gray ever put on scholarship? Also, we lost Lincoln Richard during year-and thought we lost one right before fall practiceor am I thinking about Neroes last Spring. Can't remember. its not unusual to see a 4 year Junior end up graduating and showing up for the Senior Walk. Since numbers aren't counted until August SMU almost always goes over the 85 man limit on signing date its not a hard number. I'm never surprised by June Jones adding late signees and he has gone well over the early season projection of even alleged SMU Footbnall experts every year he has been here. Its funny to see the same wrong low ball prediction every season. There will always be spring attrition, greyshirt opportunities and non-qualifiers just like there has been every year

I would like to see them greyshirt Severt at the very least in the class. And probably one or two other undersized guys like Mitchell
