Where is Froggie Fever when we need him? I wonder if he was in the room when Ty decided to flip?

This is huge. The froggies were really counting on keeping him. I can smell their salty tears from here.

A stunning coup. Rated as high as the #3 Dual Threat QB in the nation.
One would think the addition of Hawkins, Iheanachor and Onyeagoro, will put SMU's 2025 recruiting class back up into the Top 20.

Boom!
Highly rated 4* guy, if you're in to such ratings. Stealing him from TCU makes it even better.

Really have to thank the WDWHA committee for reconsidering.

The frogs are getting lessons on the historical hierarchy of our schools. I hope they enjoyed the advantage they had post death penalty, cause it’s over baby!
Haven’t heard from Deep Ellum Frog in awhile….

What are you thinking now, Sonny - was it still a good move for you when you yourself "flipped" on over to Fort Worth.
SMU also gets wide receiver who had committed to Texas Tech.
This is really a good time to be a Mustang !

Remember Sonny said HE had taken SMU as far as he could. We'll just have to see what Rhett can do.

It has been my opinion that TCU's ascendency has been pretty much directly proportional to SMU's doldrums. For years they have snagged players that pre-DP would have given SMU more than serious consideration. Dr. Turner noted the other day that until fairly recently we didn't even bring recruits on campus until they had been approved for admission. No way we could compete with the Frogs given that recruiting environment. Now the tide has turned and we are TCU's (and Baylor's and possibly Tech's) worst nightmare. I notice that we are now beating out Houston, Baylor and Tech on a regular basis for commits. I think we have turned the corner after giving the finger to Sonny Dykes with the Hawkins flip.

The day before he flipped to the Hilltop, Hawkins announced he is transferring to IMG:
