I have been waiting to hear this news. Super Duper! Strengthens the Lewis commitment, and will hopefully give us momentum moving forward.

Adrian Klemm's show rolls on...great news on the recruiting front; hope he's quite happy here at SMU...

Anyone know the Colorado fan site? I know they were moaning about potentially losing him to SMU. I would love to see what they are saying about it now.

Isn't he being recruited as a Corner Back? At any rate, wow!

I don't know if you are trolling or what. I do know that Connor will have fun throwing the ball to Lewis and Marks for a few years.

He plays both positions and apparently plays both very well. He has been blowing up at WR and I assume that is what he'll play here.

Good body control and adjustment in the air. He also has very good YAC moves which is critical in this O.
