I’m blown away by the slick dealings of SMU. Louie committed to them when they were a 1-11 team committed to rebuilding. They wait until a week before signing day to tell him about the gray shirt, which made it near impossible for him to sign on anywhere else. I personally have lost all respect for June Jones and SMU. Congrats to Louie and we wish you all the best. SMU’s loss is A&M’s gain, and they are better for it.
