Carter Wall - OL

[The PonyGrad]

Wall is fast gaining notoriety, however, and scouts already have been salivating over him for a while. He has at least 12 offers, including Baylor, Houston, Southern Methodist, Kansas and Missouri.

"He's a big kid," Cunningham said. "He's every bit of 6-5 and he can weigh a whole lot more than what he's weighing right now, which is about 270. He doesn't look real big but he's a big, strong kid who moves extremely well, and when you watch videotape on him, as offensive linemen go, he's what I call very nasty.

"He gets on people and likes to smash them around and put them on the ground, and a lot of colleges, when they see him, that's the first thing that catches their eye."

Wall was on the recruiting trail last week when his selection was announced. Cunningham said he called to inform Wall and he was thrilled. It's the biggest honor for the two-time first-team all-district pick.

The incoming senior is expected to play left tackle for the Tigers for the second season. He's entering his third year as a starter after begin called up early in his sophomore year as a right guard.

Cunningham says college scouts appreciate his versatility, meaning he could end up playing tackle or guard – the best fit according to Cunningham – in college.

Wall's top choices are SMU and Kansas but Missouri and Baylor are in the mix. He's also holding out for offers from Texas A&M and TCU, who've shown interest.

You see different sets of his top two mentioned, but SMU is always one of them. I take that as a good sign.

It occurs to me that WALL is a really great name for an OL.

I saw that article but didn't post it-I think it was published on the 27th before he went to Missouri when he said SMU and Missouri were in his Top 2. Good to see SMU listed in Top 2 in both though

Hope he likes his visit on campus today....wonder if the last school he looks at is really the one he wants to commit to?....hmmmmmmm

Supposedly he did enjoy his visit to SMU, but it's a little worrisome that he has named Mizzou and SMU as his top choice — both within the last week.

Come on, Carter. SMU is the place to be!
