The weed stuff isn't why he left SMU. I think it was the reason he went there that eventually caused him to leave. i remember Rice on periscope saying that they lied to him to get him to flip from UNT. If I had to guess, I would say that lie had something to do with them "recruiting" his brother.

He strikes me as the kind of guy you want with you in a dark alley.

Really glad he's on our side.

You're right. He's a good player, and insanely athletic for a lineman ... and possibly a little insane (in a good way), too. Good guy to have on your offensive line, or in a dark alley. 

Don't understand the venom he feels for Briggs, though. Briggs, I'm told, is a really good guy (and a pretty good player). Maybe there was stuff that went on in practice when he was at SMU, but even then, linemen usually have each other's back at all costs, don't they? I could almost understand if he picked out someone on the SMU defense and said he wanted to get THAT guy, but another OL?

Rice's rep when he was at SMU was that he was a good player but just wired a little differently than the rest of the human race. Doesn't seem to be anything to conflict that reputation.

Smoked weed, missed class, got dismissed.

college football would barely exist if players were dismissued for smoking and missing class.  College players get multiple chances  with testing.  I doubt SMU is any different.

So June jones, who barely cared about the team, all of a sudden cared in this situation?and got rid of a person on the 2 deep...

That doesn't quite add up.

Just think, it was bad enough that lazy ole June actually did something about it.

How did you get re-admitted?  I assume there is some sort of standard "I Dun Goofed and Now Daddy is Paying for a Library" form at SMU.

I did really well in "private tutoring" with my professors.

I had heard rumors about that.  You can always get ride of the taste with mouthwash... or Jack Daniels.

Not sure what you're implying. I'm just good at oral reports.

That's probably not helping...

      Caponi fired

      I understand that his decisions to go for it on 4th down so much or not to kick FGs or play the field position game are bad decisions. Just playing Devil's advocate. Could it be that those decisions stem from a lack of confidence in the defense? It feels like he believes he has to score TDs on every possession to win because the defense will not stop anyone. So, that takes me back to he should have never kept Caponi after year one.

      Ladies at ACU

      I went to the game, again we started slow and accelerated in the second quarter outscoring ACU 27-12. We let them back in it and the lead got down to three points twice. But we went on a game-sealing 11-0 run to take a 66-52 lead as Lampkin took over. One of ACU's starting bigs went out late with an apparent back injury. She's from Bixby, Oklahoma, which is where I've gotten my only speeding ticket, so maybe she deserved it. As for the arena, it shares the same name as SMU's (Moody Coliseum) and looks like a carbon copy of TCU's (albeit half the size). Recently renovated and very nice. The ACU men hosted TXST shortly after. Which we could get some better men's/women's doubleheaders and on the weekend to help boost the ladies' attendance.

      Next week's ECU game is our last chance this season to sellout DATCU Stadium

      Will Caponi and the dunk tank make one last appearance at DATCU this weekend?

      Team transportation to San Antonio

      Any word on if Caponi had to drive back to DFW?
