SMU battling 2 P5 teams for 3 star QB (deciding Thursday)

Post by SMU 86 »

He will make his decision Thursday. Would be a serious get for SMU. He has a total of 17 FBS offers.

Happy to say I will be committing this Thursday afternoon and my top 5 in no order is Wake Forest, Houston, SMU, Colorado State and Utah !

Houston.

But I think we get Bowman Sells.

(and how do we revoke Wallace's parents' "SMU card"?)

Looking at his video he can really spin it. He is from Texas. Seems like a very well spoken intelligent young man.

Houston over SMU? why would anyone who had the choice make Houston their choice? There would be explanation for that at this point.

Oh, I agree! But he really likes Applewhite. Just my gut based on some tweets I've seen.

Who the hell knows though. He had some great things to say about SMU also. I hope we get him for sure!

He said a lot of good things about Wake recently as well. Apparently they have a very good relationship with him. And Herman just won a national championship.

I think we get Moore-I'm pretty confident on this one. Here's 247 story

He reminds me a bit of Deshaun Watson. The Crystal Ball for Moore is currently split 50/50 between SMU and Wake Forest. I still think Houston has a decent chance as well. But with this new SMU coaching staff they are not backing down from anyone P5, they will fight hard for every recruit.

A lot of recruits choose Houston over SMU. Not everybody wants to go to a snooty rich kid school like SMU. Until you and the others understand how most blue-collar folks are, SMU will never truly connect with Dallas.
All rich kids right? I guess not because 70% receive financial aid. They become rich afterwards because of the superior education. I went from nothing to owning a house on my own merits before 25. Good luck to you.

I think what he means is that they might feel more comfortable at UH than SMU depending on the area they came from which could be a valid point. It would be less of a culture shock for some at UH but SMU has more overall prestige.

Oh it was a culture shock to me alright! The girls, the connections, the city, the girls, all very shocking. Did I mention the girls?

Boom! Bingo, keno. Same here. I came in with a scholly and no contacts, from lower middle class. I ended up working at The White House.

SMU to Houston is like golden apple to rotten rutabaga comparison. (And if it intimidates you, yes please go to coogie high).
