Guys, you don't understand. If it happened to SMU, it must be a disaster. We must panic. No recruit has ever decommitted from a school other than SMU in the history of ever!
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

It is a shame we can not just have some of lesser intelligence that do not make it due to grades.

I think this a very big loss..lets hope it is the only one


Was he the guy that hasn't played in a year or two, due to injury?


Marquis Frazier is a defensive lineman from Navarro who missed last season with an injury.

I may be wrong, but I can't imagine offering more OL when you are already greyshirting some in this class. Unless of course, the kid is a special player. Seems to me, they would want to save the scholarship for the real need, defense.

Actually, if you look at the o-linemen in the class, he was maybe the least regarded. Sorry to see him go, but the thoughts on him greyshirting are probably accurate.

You never know who you have until they sign. TCU just lost a kid (Kenny Cain) who had committed only a few days before.

I think that guy recommitted as this one could. Unless the coaches told him he was one they deemed over the limit.

don't understand why you would make an offer if you weren't sure you could honor it. I would guess some of these guys know the situation and nobody is being mislead.

You do know I am talking about players. They keep letting me buy tickets no matter how stupid I may be.

if anybody new commits I'm sure it would probably be as a greyshirt. June Jones has always signed greyshirts-most schools do-not really a big revelation. The reason OLM are particularly prime candidates is that they essentially get 6 years to develop-longer than any other position.

SMU 86 wrote:Wayne told Armen over at rivals.com when he first broke the story earlier today that he was not a big city type of person. Oh well, at least we have one more scholarship to give out.


After months and months of exhaustive research, Wayne came to the conclusion that Dallas was, in fact, a big city. Genius.
