And we're off and running! Welcome to SMU James!

looks like your proto-type SS with size we have not been getting around here lately. Be interested to see what kind of speed he's got.

Story says 4.6 speed - who knows.

As for size: Bryce Hudman, Alvin Nnabuife, Rico Harris - we've had some safeties his size. Hope he's a good one.

Welcome to SMU, James!

Rivals is showing him committed as well.

He's not a speester who can run away from a lot of people, but his tackling and ball skills are really impressive.

He's a safety - dont we want him running towards people?

Roach · Post by **Roach** » Thu May 08, 2008 4:53 pm

Run away from people, run people down - same thing. Good looking player, not a pure sprinter, that's all.

Of course, you're absolutely right, though. Good catch.

All right who had money on our first '09 pickup being on the defensive side of the ball?

Thad,

Yeah I certainly didn't expect that, but I think it speaks to the fact that June respects defense and understands you need great players on both sides of the ball. Anyone know what Mason's reputation is as a recruiter?

He's going to be converted to TE.
