Last transfer RB from a big time school worked out pretty well for SMU. Where is Shawnbrey these days?

You are right June did not recruit him. He called SMU first which is what June said he wanted recruits to do.

"One of my high school coaches actually got me in contact with SMU and I’m just glad it all worked out."

Abu opened the door right up to the haters with the title of the thread. Let's all celebrate what goes well for SMU and just leave it there.

Hopefully it does not take him long to learn the offense and that he can pick up the blocking schemes well. Very good pick up. Thank goodness he called SMU first.

Apparently he enrolls next Jan. which will help him learn the offense. Hope he blocks well or he will be of little use on this offense. Anyway, sounds like a good pick up.

Lake Travis' WR is on the team (name?).

Like to see a pipeline to these two schools if not for stars, then depth..

Lake Travis QB: Baker Mayfield/ 1987 yds/ 20 TDs.

Westlake QB Jordan Severt: 6'3/ 1314 yds/ 16 TDs.

Westlake with a very good kicker.

Westlake ex LB Bryce Hagar starting for Baylor, QBTanner Price at Wake Forest, WR Swopes at A&M..

I guess if a person has interest in our football program, JJ and staff didn't have any part of that. Yep, that makes sense.

That is what JJ said they have to want to come to SMU first. Yep, that makes sense.
