Good get for SMU.

Sorry, but I can't pat SMU on the back too much on the GMG.com board. Let the Ponyfans do that... So, I'm going to hijack this thread and make it about Mean Green basketball.

With our class ace Jordan Williams down at Kimball now, I'm hoping he gets into Jarion Henry's ear and convinces him to come up for a visit.

Are we not going after Keaton Miles? I haven't heard anything about him around here.

And finally, with the addition of C. Jones to go along with Trey Norris, are we still going after Trey Davis?

Good pick-up for SMU, I think they are pretty close on Cannen Cunningham as well. They have a very nice class coming together, much like UNT

Good get by SMU. Doh told him he'd be the go to guy his freshman year. I guess some people still buy what the used car salesman is selling

SMUs roster is pretty darn good heading into '11-'12, so I really don't see him as a starter, much less the go-to guy. At least, not right away. That will undoubtedly be the most the talented SMU team since Sasser/Ross/Davis/Hancock etc.

FWIW, there was no used salesman approach, Doh has had a good relationship w/Jones'family forever. What many don't realize is that Doh has relinquished the Xs and Os, and no longer runs the O & D. He's basically a figurehead that recruits now, which is very different than the past. Doh motivated and on the trail, as his primary responsibility, is a good look for SMU.

Cannen Cunningham commits to SMU. Doh has a solid class , throw in the 2 transfers that they got coming in I wouldnt be surprised if they are contending for the C-USA title in as little as 2 to 3 years

Our commits are ranked #7 and #24 on Texashoops.com rankings of the 2011 class. No SMU commit is rated that high. Not sayin...

but but Cannen Cunningham has the highest national rating of any player in either class. Rivals has Cannen as the 94th best player in america, Jordan at 108 etc. Also, SMU doesn't have anyone outside the low 30s on texashoops, while UNTs PG of choice is a lowly 70 or so. Don't play that ratings game nonsense. They are both good classes, and both still have ships to give. Does SMU get to include London giles as part of the '11 class, cause he transferred in, and that's when he's eligible. He was top 15 on texashoops.com in 08. What about Troy Alexander, he transferred in as well, isn't even on scholarship, and was Top 20 in texas in 08 etc. Guess what, none of that crap matters, just know both programs got kids who can play and help immediately

True, but SMU's kids get to play for Coach Doh so that should drop all their ratings while our kids get to play for JJ which raises their ratings and we come out ahead. Doh equals Trilli, just look at the hair!

I think we see who can be baited. :-)

Honestly I think either school (and fan baae) would covet any of the kids in either class. I hope both finish very strong (as long as we get a big that we're after and at least one more solid guard). Now, about that whole playing eachother thing...

I assume that Cunningham liked the idea of picking up a nice paycheck for the next four years (and I don't mean the scholarship)...plus I did not see anywhere that he had an offer from us...but it seems as though the "offer lists" are not always accurate or up to date...

Regardless, he will be a good player...for SMU. :rolleyes:

Am I missing the thread on you guys worrying about WKU's class? What a weekend that school had in hoops recruiting

They had a good weekend, but none of those players are CUSA material...right? :P

Or, do you only question the quality of players that UNT recruits? Surely not, ya'll claim that up on the hilltop you are not concerned with the lowly school up north...right?...:ph34r:

      Not thrilled about playing State

      Having lived there for five years, this is 100% true.

      Breaking: North Texas lands Miami QB Transfer (Free)

      🤦🏽‍♂️”all the excitement is unwarranted” is not a complaint it is just rational observation. Complaining would be saying “he is going to suck why didn’t we get somebody better” that is a complaint. Fixing the defense is the priority bad QB play RARELY factored in the losses we had. Nice to have somebody apparently talented based on his FCS performance to take Chandler’s place. But expecting him to be program lifter beyond reasonable optimism. If they can’t vastly improve the defense and win a little more almost everyone on this board will going griping again come December.

      In a city of 4 million people, I'd sure hope you'd have at least double the attendance of little ol' San Marcos. The only reason ya'll ever sniffed a 5 star recruit is because E.O. was a momma's boy that didn't want to leave home (like most UH students actually). Nobody was talking smack, UH fans are just low class losers and overall poor sports. The only reason you're in the BIG 12 is your daddy Tillman paid for it. Nobody cares about UH in Houston, it's all about UT, A&M and LSU.

      Idiot president-elect proposes Canada as 51st state

      Once again Republicans create their own little economic dystopia for some reason because your retirement accounts have never been higher, unemployment has never been lower, and inflation lagged behind the rest of the world. Yeah the world's biggest welfare queen turning twitter into a cesspool of nazis, bots and crypto scammers. Throttling the political opposition and using illegal lotteries to try and buy votes. Suing companies because they dare choose not to advertise next to usernames like killk**es1488. Every time he makes another boneheaded announcement like allowing people to still see blocked tweets, or arbitration that has to be settled by a judge he's donated money to, threads/bluesky/mastadon get a bump in new users. The world's richest man's threats to shut down the government over the spending bill just got $190 million stripped away from childhood cancer research. Enjoy what's left of the federal government being sold off to billionaires with their added profit taxes because god forbid something not make money.

      Build the rivalry between North Texas (Good Guys) and Texas State (Someone needs to be the bad guys 🤣), and everyone can agree that we wish UTSA nothing but bad luck
