Calvin Klein Model/SMU Recruit

[AusTxPony]

Guess what we should recruit is that Oregon kid who models with a Bong.

He is a cutie! The next 4 years are looking up. Maybe the football team will put out a calendar.

Dude with those looks going into a roomful of SMU women?

That's a man with a plan, and I'm jealous.

[MV pony]

We women will be watching the game. For sure. Perhaps that's why they're expanding the stadium. And you guys thought the extra seats would go to waste. Maybe he'll pull a Tim Tebow and run to the locker room shirtless at the end of the game.

BTW, Crosby is rated in the Top Ten Safeties in Texas according to the winter edition of Dave Campbells Texas Football. Other SMU recruits in Top Ten at their positions are Jeremiah Gaines and Zelt Minor, both three stars on Rivals.

Hey, this young man says he dropped a 6 figure modeling job this year in favor of getting his education and playing football at SMU. Sounds like he has his priorities right in life. We all wish we had more good athletes dedicated to playing football at SMU.

[SMU2007]

I'd take the 6 figures while I could and go back to school once you get older and uglier

Sounds like he is dumping hundreds of thousands in income for football hubris. It takes even most SMU grads quite a long time to get to that income level

College is not about securing income. It's about learning to reason. Good for this kid.

Now all we need is Charlie Waters for a coach to make the blue hairs happy.

50,000 SMU fans pack Ford Stadium, 45,000 are women.

That depends highly on the income bracket you were born into.

Either way 5 years of modeling and a half mil of income can pay for a lot of tuition at fine universities.

I disagree.

RT @MDoocy: Tonight on FOX 4 News at 9, @NatalieSolisCh4 talks with the football star who'll sign with SMU tomorrow, putting a modeling career on hold.

At least we are getting lots of publicity from this signing. If he can play we will maybe get some more in the future.

It is a unique story. Like quitting football to go into accounting, or to start a band. Our guys certainly come up with some interesting activities to be successful at other than football. ; )

[leopold]

We're moving up.

Instead of people leaving us to play bass in unheard of bands, they're now giving up modeling contracts to play for us.

If that's not progress I don't know what is.

Wow, we are getting some attention on this one. Saw this on Yahoo! just now:
