Mitchell has 8 picks in three games against the likes of Texas State, Tech and Rice. He is also only a true freshman.

You can't compare the two. Vizza with absolutely no running game, to keep anyone honest, has his work cut out for him every game.

Can you imagine Gio behind the O-line of LSU with a running game. Holy crap! He could tear it up.

You're kidding, of course...aren't you??? It will take Julie Jones (er, June, my bad) at least three recruiting classes over on the top of that hill over yonder to build a winner at SM-Who!

Don't I keep hearing we are supposed to give TD four recruiting classes before he is judged? This longer leash is really getting stretched--it wasn't that long ago that coaches were expected to WIN NOW.

we'll have a better running game when we get drake back, not that johnson is doing bad but an extra 20 pounds will get us some extra push in the middle.

I would remind you that we had 203 yards rushing against Tulsa (6.0 yds/carry).

And, the truth is, we may have more talented runners than receivers at this point. Not that we will take advantage of it, though - inexperienced and injured o-line, pass-heavy focus, etc.

While All important, nothing is as Important as W/L. Our #1 marketing leader is Eric Morris before that it was Seth Littrell, etc Period This is 100% correct from the AD: “We have to put a competitive team on the field. Every time we’ve had a competitive team, attendance goes up.” -Jared Mosley

      I felt a twinge of optimism yesterday

      SMU teams are always better before they play a down of football. Then the games begin and the popped collar crowd gets bored and gives up on going, which is why your attendance has been in the bottom half of the FBS for so many years.

      Did the PAC-12 becoming the PAC-2 teach you nothing? After the big dogs leave a Power 5 conference can implode faster than the sub that visited the Titanic.

      Should We Recruit in Japan?

      In Europe, players start being treated as professionals from a young age. When you join an academy over there, you do everything at the academy. It's like being in college here. They live, eat, do their schooling at the academy on top of playing the game and this can start in elementary school. Getting a player from Europe means getting somebody who's been living the lifestyle of a college student for over a decade. I doubt it's to that level for football but for basketball (and other sports) it is. I have family over there and knew a guy in an academy for judo (France regularly has olympic medalists in judo) who lived like that in middle school. Away from family and following a strict daily schedule to progress in the national ranks. Again, getting at least basketball players from over there would mean getting guys mature far beyond their age.
