SMU on verge of landing #3 recruit in class of 2014

[Robert]

This will be great for the conference if this is true.

"On Monday morning, with no context or explanation, heralded point guard Emmanuel Mudiay tweeted, "Sometimes u just have to shock the world!"

The meaning of that tweet became a bit more intriguing four days later when Rivals.com's No. 3 Class of 2014 recruit revealed he will announce his college destination on ESPNU during the Under Armour Elite 24 event on Saturday night.

Mudiay cut his list a few weeks ago to five schools: Kentucky, Kansas, Baylor, Oklahoma State and SMU. Most recruiting analysts consider Kentucky and SMU the favorites to land the Dallas native, but only a commitment to the hometown Mustangs would qualify as Mudiay pulling a stunner.

Based on the unexpectedly early timing of Mudiay's announcement, it appears SMU has a a real chance of securing a commitment on Saturday."

Despite all the harassment the AAC gets, even the lower level teams have something to offer. SMU and UCF are both solid at both sports and Houston is improving. No, its not the best conference but it will be competitive and respectable.

I would think of all schools out there that SMU is the one keeping its nose the cleanest.

Agreed, they have a big name coach and this kid is from Dallas. It's not that crazy that he would go there. I'm not a big fan of people throwing out "they must be dirty" when teams succeed without any evidence.

Landed Mudiay. Good for Larry Brown and SMU. The more quality opponents the AAC has the better it is for the bearcats.

Mudiay to SMU is now official....

Larry Brown is quietly, until last night, getting talent at SMU.

I just meant cause they got the death penalty in the 80's for football.

The problem for SMU is Larry Brown is a job hopper, in the past it has always been a matter of when not if with him. He could be gone by national signing with an NBA offer. Schools should continue to recruit their commits just in case.

He left Kansas with sanctions looming, so I wouldn't be surprised.
