    So Sumlin offered the kid then pulled it away? Surely Strong can use for a little negative recruiting fuel you would think
    I guess it's a result of trying to keep Nixon happy and they already have two 2015s in Anderson/Bradford.

    @DamonSayles: 4-star RB/FB Daniel Gresham (@DanielGresham33) is now down to #PonyUp & #BirdsUp. A decision will come Sunday.

    I know many folks don't care to hear updates on Gresham but I find it extremely odd that he went from being committed to Texas to know having to decide between SMU and UTSA. Very odd recruitment to say the least.
    How ironic that he messed with UT, commited to go home to Louisville, UT took his coach and then Strong didn't want him at Texas.

    What a crazy way it all worked out for him, but I'm glad he'll find a home and probably play a lot.

    The football aspect aside, how could that even be a choice? UTSA is a cheap commuter school, while SMU has history, and is a of a school to get degree from. Just the contacts he will make will give him such a leg up for the rest of his life. I have nothing against UTSA, my wife teaches there, but no way I'd pick UTSA over SMU.

    I really do wish him well but just goes to show that sometimes handling your recruitment as professional and as honest as possible is always the best way to go. In this case it appears that playing the game backfired on him. Cir stances such as these is why I respect the way certain prospects such as our Jerrod Heard, LSU's Jamal Adams and Solomon Thomas handled their recruitment. They were as high level a prospect as one could be but they never led schools on and consistently managed themselves well. Surely there are other recruits who did just as well but those are the recent ones who come to mind.

    It's one degree that makes it almost impossible not to get a job. Of course, your daddeh is probably the CEO of something if you went there.

    Well, we have 2 RB's committed already. Not sure of his official offer date, but there just isn't much room for another RB.

    It's a tier two school, same as ags, Baylor and TCU, but the connections when you graduate are what make it so valuable. The same can be said for Texas, atm, and Rice. Again, comparing it to UTSA, there is no comparison.

    Any news on Poona or Bonney? I also imagine we're going to pull in a DE from somewhere with all the feelers we've put out in the past few days — the only question is whom will it be?

    You're right, they are a tier 1 school, they are ranked 60 in USNWR rankings and behind only Rice and Texas.

    I guess you have no idea what sarcasm is, so let me spell it out for you.

    A degree from SMU is better than a degree from any other school in Texas outside of Rice and Texas. There are only 59 universities in the US ranked higher, so yea,you were wrong
