What a mess.  There's big boosters on both sides of it as well. The way I understand it...Sumlin didn't want Murray in the first place because he knew he was too small to take the pounding.  Sumlin wa

All these QB's are decommitting and/or transferring because they heard Seth Littrell is the new conductor and under his watch THE MEAN GREEN HYPE TRAIN DON'T STOP

My guess is he goes to TCU. Perfect fit. This is where not having a baseball program really hurts us...

If he doesn't go back to baseball then look at TCU or Baylor as possible landing spots for him. Can't hurt for Littrell to talk to him but he is probably out of our range.

He will be playing baseball somewhere.  My guess is he leaves the conference. OU or UT would be ideal because of their baseball programs.

A UNT baseball team would not be enough to sway a talent of Kyler's magnitude.

Not that we would land him in our current state, but if we had a good baseball program, it would help land dual-sport athletes who also play baseball.

A UNT baseball team would not be enough to sway a talent of Kyler's magnitude.

Agree 100%. I'm just saying it's one of many example why it would help.

Why would he go to TCU?  Kenny Hill is already there.  Or do you all think he gives up football?

What's the timeline of things? Does Kyler Murray have to sit out a year? Does he still have a redshirt year?

If I were him, I'd go to Rice. He isn't going to pro in football. Their baseball program speaks for itself. And he'd light up C-USA as a QB in that system. There's also a good chance it's not going to be on the list of restricted destinations (you can bet the entire SEC West will be.)

Granted, I am fully aware it's difficult to go from playing in front of 100,000+ fans to playing in front of 203.

Yes, and yes. True freshman this year.

That's what I thought Billy. So him going to TCU is not an irrational thought. Just trying to put that thought out there. So if he goes somewhere for baseball and football, how does that work in regards to eligibility? Can he play baseball right away for 3-4 years and then still have his year or two left of football after sitting out of football for 2 years?

He would have to sit out for both football and baseball.

Which is why he may not end up transferring at all. And if he does, he may go play baseball at a Juco or NAIA and enter the baseball draft in 2017.

I don't know how it works for multi-sport athletes. I would assume he would have to sit out this baseball season.

I guess it depends on how serious he is about baseball and/or how serious he is about getting an education. Interesting situation nonetheless.

When Murray was recruited he was told that he could be a two sport athlete. From what I've heard it sounds like Sumlin may have taken that promise back. With a new OC coming in and and Kyle Allen transferring out, it sounds like Sumlin wants Murray to forget about baseball and focus on working with the new OC. Someone needs to tell this kid forget about transferring, just declare for the MLB draft.

Not exactly. Baseball only offers a handful of scholarships. Most baseball transfers play immediately. If he is on scholarship for football, he would not be for baseball and could play right away.

Also, think about when Awasom and Blount played basketball for UNT. They did not count against scholarship bball.

You're probably correct, but being a walk-on didn't provide Baker Mayfield instant eligibility.

What the heck is going on in Aggieland? 

I don't know, but I'm loving it:)

      Appreciate the recap

      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?

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

      Caponi fired

      Thank you. Might seem crazy now with only two games left in the regular season, but no way you get rid of him at 5-1 or 5-2, and it shows a pissed off fanbase that maybe Morris does care to build a serious contender. However, if Morris's tenure ends in failure, one of the questions I will continue to ponder is "Why did we feel like we had to give an unproven position coach the largest G5 coordinator salary in the first place?"
