"don't you have some remedial night class to go to or something?" SMU is wanting to go "high school" by lowering its football standards, correct?

I won't run any girl smack. That's for sure. My wife went to Rice grad school so there are good ones even in the most remote places.

This is why I'm so proud of SMU for deciding to make a new hire and why it is so embarrassing to currently watch SMU getting critiqued by knowledgeable observers on national TV.


That was Youri Yenga, a true freshman, who got burnt by a RB that's faster than most NFL RBs.


They say it at least 3 times every game. They'll say it again, just wait. That guy is fast though. Lining up improperly doesn't give you much of a chance given that speed.


It's happened once against the best RB in the conference. Shush.


Like I said, just wait. That wasn't the only play they mentioned our alignment btw.

Who said we are lowering standards? I'm pretty sure Orsini said the exact opposite.

What is the score?

We were minus -3 in the turnover ratio coming into this game.

Now we are minus -6 after the first half. Another reason why we're about to go 1-8.

Haven't I been reading that y'all want to lower standards to admit some of the hosses that other schools are able to get (i.e., high school grade risks, transfers, etc.)? As things are currently structured, SMU clearly has one of the best groups of student athletes in the conference.

Easier transferring is the only thing I've heard from the admin. That just means that we are going to relax the stringent standards and limits on transferable hours.
