Still better than what your team has.


Pretty sure Southlake Carroll is better off than we are. Way to go, CK.

#1 ranked kicker in Texas and #3 - #15 in Nation by multiple ranking services wants to come to SMU.
He came on unofficial visit to A&M game, attended last year's Springfest and great student.

He also competed under great pressure and won the spot for the 2013 International Bowl (USA vs. the World) selected by Kohl's Kicking.

His name is Matthew McCrane, kicker 2013 class, Brownwood, TX.
He has not committed yet but if SMU would offer him, I am confident that he would commit.

He used to play Olympic Development Program soccer in Dallas and when younger, had the dream to play soccer for SMU, but switched over to football a few years back.

If he was the #1 kicker in Texas, he would have stars on Rivals and would actually have a ranking. The #1 kicker in Texas has already committed to the Coogs. :D

We prefer to beat up on a walk on kid who is doing the best he can. Our staff is not responsible for recruiting punters or kickers as they may actually help special teams, but take up a schollie.

But we should have had a couple td's instead of several fg's.

This below was my response post to CougarKing's above.
I saw Hover had a better game yesterday and am glad for him. He appears to have a strong leg.

Hey CougarKing,
aren't you on the wrong website? LOL
Ty Cummings is an excellent kicker, you are correct.
There are many ranking services. Rivals and ESPN primarily use Kohls Kicking rankings and Matthew has only attended one of their camps versus many others. Jamie Kohl runs an excellent program, and his staff are the ones that helped select Matthew for the 2013 International Bowl. (USA vs the World)

Matthew McCrane has worked with National Camp Series and ranked #3 in Nation in kickoff/FG's combined.
http://www.nationalcampseries.com/ratin ... &eventid=1
http://www.prweb.com/releases/2012/10/prweb9970561.htm

Ranked #1 in Texas by texashsfootball.com and as the #79 overall ranked recruit(All positions, all classifications). #1 kicker listed. Only three total listed.
http://www.texashsfootball.com/recruiti ... top200.htm

Matthew also plays starting WR and backup QB when needed.
This is an article from game last night...
http://m.reporternews.com/news/2012/oct ... ames_file/

Once again, Ty is a solid kicker and wish him well at Houston.
We are talking about SMU on this site.
Pony Up!
