As a mother, this really turned me off. I was planning on offering to full pay my grand kids' college tuition if they chose SMU. Now I'm reconsidering.

Oh man, this is the kind of stuff that makes FTHP seem like a normal person. Holy crap you're crazy.

I used to make up players with names like Dontavious "Big Foot" Jefferson as a joke with a complete bio-but now so many SMU fans follow recruiting you can't get away with it. Before SMU got their own Rivals site about a decade ago-hardly anyone followed recruiting much on this board. I actually subscribed to the Rivals Texas site because they had the most information on the top players in Texas. SMU's name didn't come up much

4 Star Kennedale DL Baron Browning (2017) had been trying to get in touch with the new staff but hasn't been able to. He's got numerous good p-5 offers but is interested in SMU. Earlier today, he was surprised to learn from his coach that he just received an SMU offer but he still has not spoken to the staff. How about establishing a close meaningful relationship with this player?

As Paul Harvey would say, "the rest of the story" in the Scout link above...welcome to recruiting Big(ger) time.

again this is a 2017 recruit and its still 21 months until his signing date. He's a Sophomore right now and different rules apply to contacting Sophomores. Nevertheless SMU has already offered.

See middle column of Chart-you are not even supposed to send recruiting materials or contact recruits by telephone until September 1 of their Junior Year. This is a complete non-issue
