Good job on Coach Brown's part to get someone decent so late in 2012 recruiting year.

We've had some pretty good luck with guys named "Dickerson".

The best recruiting coup Larry Brown will get in 2012 will be the commitment of Ricky Seals-Jones (SMU will win the day because LB will let him play bball here).

You heard it here first, folks.

Write it down. Take a picture. Done deal.

This will also be the last time we hear it because it's not happening.

from ... http://www.sbnation.com/college-footbal ... -longhorns ... his commitment to SMU will catch all the so-called experts off guard ... they will be 'shocked' ... just like they were when ED committed (it wasn't like SMU was a national powerhouse when ED committed - we hadn't had that much success in the previous several years before he came here) ... same will happen here with the same results ... an undefeated season in 3 years ... history repeats itself, except no DP this time so we will ride this success for decades ...

"Hall of Fame sounding board Sealy, Texas, is a town of roughly 6,000. It's the home to Pro Football Hall of Fame running back Eric Dickerson, a four-time NFL rushing champion and six-time Pro Bowl back who also happens to be Seals-Jones' second cousin.

Chester Jones said Dickerson serves as a mentor of sorts to Seals-Jones. Dickerson and Seals-Jones talk as much as twice a week, as Dickerson offers all kinds of advice to help Seals-Jones' recruiting process go as smoothly as possible.

"He always talks to Ricky about taking his time with the process," Jones said. "It's a one-time deal, so you've got to make sure when you decide about where you want to go. You want to be relaxed wherever you go, and you want to make sure that the people in place, you can relate to them."

Seals-Jones added: "I know this is only going to happen once for me, so I've got to live it up. You just have to stay focused every day and come out and compete. That's what I get most out of it."

Seals-Jones hopes he can one day have the kind of pro football résumé his cousin had. Dickerson was the No. 2 overall pick in the 1983 NFL draft. No running back in the league has rushed for more yards in a season than he did in 1984, when he recorded 2,105 yards. He played for four teams -- the Rams, Colts, Raiders and Falcons -- and his Rams No. 29 jersey has been retired.

Seals-Jones looks at Dickerson as a measuring stick .... "

You honestly think ED is not selling SMU to him on these twice/week calls??
