My understanding was we offered him along with Farrar (his RB teammate) and were on hold if SMU got another guy they had ahead of him. We were all over this kid though because we were recruiting his teammate. I have been hearing he was a very undervalued talent for a long time.
What's so frustrating is that we were there, on the cusp. We were THAT team. WE HAD THE MOMENTUM (starting in 2017) until Littrell's flirtations with KSSt.
The wheels fell off after that.... starting with Fine's injury in the NM Bowl game that year, then Harrell getting hired away & replaced by Bodie Reeder. The next season, the lackadaisical SL showed up and he wasn't having fun anymore. No more high energy, "Get after their asses!!". Instead, it was low energy, "we gotta do better in all 3 phases"....
Then, we fired Littrell, and rightly so, but brought in Great Value Seth Littrell to replace him, which was a bone-headed move.
