Of course people have been saying this for about a week. But she has been reporting all the hick ups along the way, so hopefully this is correct.

Will follow Laken and let you know when it is official.

SMU is currently on probation until March 2013 for impermissible text messages to parents of recruits.


Don't think we have to worry about this with LB. I wonder if he even knows what a text message is? Seriously though, I really hope this is a done deal and we see the Presser announcement shortly.

It's only been posted for about 10 minutes. It's a great day for SMU basketball and we needed one.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

as Skip Bayless would say- Way to go $MU! (that's suppose to be a dollar sign-would have been much funnier if it showed up better)
