He's the exception. I'm not saying Sutton will drop to the 6th round but if he goes to the combine and has all the measurables teams want, they will still question him because of the competition he played against. Also, it's so early in the process that teams aren't making their boards yet. At this time last year Carson Wentz was thought to maybe be a 2nd or 3rd round pick.

It's still very early so these and I would expect them to drop since when it comes down to it teams tend to favor players from P5 schools.

CUSA is waiting for Charlotte to get really good before scheduling them against us.

Waiting until signing day is a dangerous gamble. Hopefully all his preferred offers do not dry up at the last second.

It just could be kids are finding their own way there and don't want to come back to campus to take a bus. It's really easy to make it a one day trip or even a one night trip cheaply.

That is really good for Dickey and I'm happy for him.

Honestly, I think this is a solid hire for SMU and I think he'll do ok.

We just can't get away from that McCarney pic.

I think Texas made a good hire. I hope TCU doesn't.

He was also leading them to a another score late when the receiver fumbled near the red zone.

Blue hair? Ugh. He does have a some mobility.

Somehow in an article about Littrell mentions to talk about two losses and no wins. It would be nice to have a beat writer who didn't always see the glass half empty.

I'm kinda surprised Dickey has't gotten another head coaching job. I suppose he may have just not been interested or perhaps how he left UNT is still following him. I don't see him being the hire at SMU. I don't think he would bring the excitement they would want and, much like Seth, I don't see him as a fit for the SMU culture.

Cherry picking one obscure state to make your case doesn't work.

Iowa.

I think that was more about getting Houston on the schedule and getting out of the Army deal.

Technology has also given students many more options of things to do on a Saturday afternoon.

Crap! I think Todd Graham would be an improvement for them. I'm hoping Todd Graham goes somewhere else.

Yep ... and it's been that way for a long, long time.

There are NFL games that weekend but they don't start until 3:30 so we'll be one of the few football games on early that day.

I do think there's a little advantage to playing an early bowl game before people get "bowled" out.

Did I read that right that a source said the NO Bowl was our second choice? I wonder what our first was?

I thought you were talking about Smastrask since he got us Baker and Littrell. :) I originally though the "irony is not lost on me" was referring to our previous coach and I was about to give her major props for that - 10/10 on the joke scale. On a second read it appears she's from Iowa so it's only 6/10 on the irony scale.

Shouldn't you not have two losses with one being a blown out lost to a five loss team. I think Alabama is the better team but I would have understood if they took Ohio St.

I completely disagree. There's two reasons why this team won the Western Division despite all the dire pre-season predictions: we have a quarterback and these coaches get the most out of these players.
