We'll see if it matters tonite. It most certainly did matter last year. It matters if you are interesting in having a strong football team.

KnuckleStang's comments are more plausible to me than PB lying.

MORE EVIDENCE: Aldridge had 4 offers on January 20 -ALL from Big 12 schools all of which he made OFFICIAL visits to in the months of December or January. Yet all backed off.

For what it's worth, Alridge according to the game announcers tonight missed an entire season at Houston because he was academically ineligible. At Houston no less! So who knows if he would still be at SMU even if he had made it through the admission process.

Thank you mustangbill. AA could not make it through the admissions process, that is why he is not here. GPA and test scores were to low. Recruiting process stopped when Roark looked at his grades and test scores. The kid took the test several times throughout his HS years. Could not get it done. I think flunking out of UH says enough. Did you see all those thugs on their sidelines. We need some thugs. Damn some eligibility!
