Need another nuance: 1 G5 team gets an automatic bid as well (chosen by computers/polls/whatever). That way, at least a G5 school has a shot at winning the national title every year.

Nothing will change in the recruits we're (or they're) targeting. They're not going to start recruiting Shawn Robinson (realistically). Just because Morris is there doesn't mean SMU wont try and poach our commits when signing day approaches like they normally do. We just went head to head with them for a dude.

Are UNT faithful trying to come up with shirts for the UTSA game? It's about the same.

Lots of fear & worry about a team that really, really sucks. SMU is a long way away from being competitive again.

Jimmerson will get his. I wouldn't be surprised to see Ivery/Rollins used little-to-none unless there is an injury.

Every carry that goes to Jimmerson/Rollins/Ivery is a carry that's not going to Wilson. Just keep that in mind.

When it would create a mirage of 'doing what's right', I'm sure they would jump all over that waiver. NCAA needs all the positive pub they can get right now.

The White Mamba: Jarrod Lynn.

The outfield in your scenario is beckoning just like Mandy's MCG 'advertisements' back in the day: "If we haven't talked, it's because you haven't called me yet" <-- not a joke.

Ah. The old "at least they're better than <worst predecessor possible>" argument. I know lots of people on GMG.com are big proponents of that one. Especially when it comes to football played between 2007 - 2010, then afterward.

Yup. Enough puffery Mr. Gooding. We'll all be behind you... rooting you on. High-fives & back-pats all around when you return victorious Go get 'em Tiger!

I think he's saying that if we improve in 2015-16, it's not going to be because we picked up all of these transfers. It will be in spite of them... meaning, Jalie is doing better with what she has by simply being a better coach.

So this guy is going to be taking her spot? If so, I'm hoping for more enthusiasm out of this dude. Much respect for her accomplishments wearing Green on the v-ball court, but MGC Coordinator was not the job for her.

Jimmerson is already almost there (1579), and he hasn't been the starter the entire time he's been here.

Right. But an 8-10 win season next year (although poor) is still an improvement. If she can realize the breakthrough in 2016-17 and beyond, the move pays off. Bringing in these transfers in to sit a year is really all she can do anyway, right? Didn't Peterson sign a full class in February? I don't think anyone should expect anything better than 5-10 wins from 2015-16 anyway unless the class Peterson just signed is awesome... and if it is, Jalie will probably get more out of them than Peterson would anyway.

Agree. I think that's a gamble Jalie is willing to take... and it's a pretty safe one.

I'm thinking that, even with the challenges she's inheriting, she'll still be more successful than 5-wins. I don't know what would qualify as a 'throw-away' season, but improvement will hopefully be seen... then 2016-17 will hopefully be a breakout year.

Gotcha. I agree. But when you have a festering, open chest wound, you tend to ignore the sprained ankle.

Were you watching whenever Wilson was in last year? We're going to be just fine as long as he's healthy.

I honestly cannot remember a year we did NOT sign 25.

Good call on Davis. Maybe it is one of the High Schoolers. I suppose we wont find out for sure until the end of the school year.

Did any of our HS Seniors double-sign with a JUCO? Otherwise, Grindle Thompson Smith Are those the only 3 that are not here yet? Looking like one of them will not be making it to campus. Please, please, please don't be Smith.

Could've been a mega-superstar-instant-starter-1st-team-all-conference player here. Enjoy sitting on the bench for 5 years at SMU, loser. That's what we're supposed to say when this happens, right?
