I had previously heard that Bamba wasn't the only one with grade problems. Does anyone know if all have qualified for the upcoming year?

I've been told by someone who knows a hell of a lot more than I claim to that everyone, including Bamba Fall, will be eligible from the start of the season.

Everyone is eligible, including Bamba.

There are currently 10 players on scholarship. Your list left out Cameron Spencer.

that sounds pretty bleak, especially since we have never had much luck getting productive jucos. And I dont think we will see any fab 5s at SMU, but maybe we can hope for a young class similar to the Sasser, Willie D and Elsey class Dement got early in his tenure. That class never broke through in the end, but they were exciting as freshman and sophs and provided alot of hope at the time. No reason Doherty cant put together something similar, although i dont expect it to be from DISD. That fence is not all the way mended by any means it doesn't sound like through the grapevine.

will need some walk-ons just to run a decent practice. Just have to hope the 7-8 key guys in the rotation (I'm assuming Willingham and Roberts starting guards spelled by Killen and even Epps who also spells Pearson and then Bamba and Rack backed up by primarily by Ike) are superbly conditioned and can stay out of foul trouble. It's really going to be interesting to see what Doherty can do with this roster
