@brett_shipp: SMU bb player at the center of grade changing investigation at Kimball HS. What did SMU coaches know and when did they know it? News8@10

Oh my goodness. Every school in Texas knew everything that was going on at Kimble. Brett could have asked the Houston coach just as well. It seems to me not an SMU issue at all.

Then go after Kentucky for recruiting PP kids. Oh that's right, WFAA is really not that interested.


all Prime Prep's players eligibility have been reviewed by the NCAA already including the TCU kid above. I've always been worried that Prime Prep would be put on the NCAA's list of uncertified schools. They do have one-most notably Huntington Prep and Findley Prep in Las Vegas. If they are de-certified then then worry about Mudiay

They wouldn't be grade changing at PP because ut is set up to pass everyone from the get go. Must be Kimble. Time to see if SMU is really committed to winning athletics or not. The correct answer for us is that he is eligable amd clear until the NCAA says otherwise.

Why do these DISD schools have to fix grades just so these kids can graduate? Maybe B.S. should investigate the pathetic job the DISD does in educating kids. Im just making a point

He's implying that SMU knew something..... This either just to pump the story because he's a [deleted] or, we might be in trouble if we didn't say anything about it....gulp

The newscaster on right now tweeted just before it started about a grade changing story coming up tonight

I believe he said on Twitter to pay attention tomorrow at 10, but since he's a [deleted] and like the sneak attack, it could be tonight

I'm worried about this. Even if it ends up being cleared this could rob the team of it's recent momentum.
