    Is your friend coming to the game? Is so, he will probably be one of the usual 50 or so SMU fans that can manage that "long long trek all the way up I-35" to support their team. Beat SMUt!

    We're going together.  It's become an annual tradition for us.  He's already complained about the long trek....it's going to be even longer with the UNT fight song blaring in my car speakers the entire drive. 😎

    The club membership thing has not been around for at least five or six years, or at least if it is still on the books, it is definitely not enforced in Denton.

    Well, considering its been that long since I've been to a bar in Denton....there ya go. Let me continue to pretend to be Kevin Bacon though please.

    They have a starter (out injured), they have a backup (injured too). They signed Morris for the 3rd spot. 
    McNicholls and Wilson are playing for the practice squad. Hopefully this means Wilson is ahead of him on that race...

     

     

    That's what it looks like.  I expect both Wilson and McNicholls to duke it out next week.  They play again this Thursday and I vet they only run Wilson, McNicholls and Mostert that game.  No sense in tsetting Morris get hurt with your two starters already banged up.  I do hope he gets a shot on the practice squad.  I really think he could be a great 3DB.

  4. It wasn't in the 4th quarter.  That's when I tuned in expecting him to get touches.  From what I've read, it seems like he played in the first half wirh the 1s and 2s...

    5 carries isn't a huge sample size but he averaged over 4 yards per touch against his limited action against the Texans also.  I hope they at least put him on the practice squad.

    Injuries happen in all football games.  I have seen a lot of these type games and I have never been aware of any more injuries than the average game.  Exception is the old series with Miss State were they intentionally tried to take out NT players.  

    Heaven help us if we injure any of their players though, though I doubt Chad Morris will stoop as low as that scumbag McElwain when Wheeler injured their qb del Rio on a perfectly legitimate tackle.  I can't believe he's still coaching after he ran that program into the ground.

    Edit: refreshed my memory on it.  Wheeler did end up tackling him at his knee, but he pushed low by the pass protection as he was trying to sack del Rio.

    How about those on here that thought Damascus Smith might be the answer here when SL got hired? Dude could barely beat out McNulty and Greer, the two worst QBs that we’ve ever started a game with in my almost 30 years of following the team.

    To be fair to McNulty, Greer, and Smith, they all had receivers that couldn't catch a ball if it was handed to them.  The amount of drops on catchable passes I saw in 2014 and 2015 were absurd.  More important to teach them to block instead of catch I guess.

    Sighted on the 2nd half kickoff return team. Being on special teams ain't the showcase opportunity it used to be, with the new kickoff rules.

    Yeah, but as of the end of game, they didn't use him at RB.  I'm disappointed, especially since the first couple of RB's struggled (though obviously that was against 1st and 2nd teamers).  It doesn't seem like they've given him a chance to make the team, let alone the practice squad, which as we all know will be a huge loss to the 49ers.

    dmn missed out on this, but they hit on most everything else

    They FREQUENTLY snub us.  There's usually at least a handful of dmn articles about SMUt football every week, but they barely cover us.  Now that may be because the DRC,  but still. This particular article snub is noteworthy because of how successful we've already been with our 2019 recruiting class.

    Here's to hoping the cannon makes peruna run away from his handlers because it goes off so many times.  September 1st cannot get here soon enough.

    Well, a teen recruit out of Southlake might take visual notes of an office!

    I would say I doubt they would but recently I've been seeing a girl (we're both in our mid 20s for perspective) that grew up in the Southlake area.  She would notice the office finish lol, so you might be onto something.  I still doubt that's what influences teenagers on what school to accept a scholarship to.
