I believe you are referring to drew kelson who was a safety converted to linebacker. Kelson was also the player running stride for stride with bush down the field on a pass play
Yeah you are correct. Never understood why he did not play in the NL.I believe you are referring to drew kelson who was a safety converted to linebacker. Kelson was also the player running stride for stride with bush down the field on a pass play
Check him out every morning at 6 Central Time on NBCSN.and 1st QB since ...
I am rather surprised Texas would recruit a player who might be academically marginal. That seldom works at UT.rumor is the NCAA is going to waive certain academic requirements for this class only. we are supposed to have one 2020 commit this will apply to
Apparently there is still a chance we could add another player to this lass

Well Texas got a tight end from FL and a the OLB/DE from Manor under Strong. The first never qualified (though he really wanted to play at Texas) and the Manor recruit just could not be admitted. I would think the staff would not want to waste time nor even a scholarship on someone who is so close to the edge. Just makes no sense, especially since each prospect is vetted academically.You cannot be serious. Does the name Butch Hadnot ring a bell? Butch wasn't exactly Valedictorian at Kirbyville. Hell, the old Aggies still accuse me of taking his SAT. They are more pissed and wonder how we got him away from the Dockery family.
Every public Ivy (we still ain't one) has marginal academic selections. UVA recruited and accepted a QB that the coaches doubted could remember the play from the huddle to the line of scrimmage. He made Butch look smart. How about Teford's teams at Berzerkley?
Ever heard of the "Summer Twenty-seven"?
"You can't fix stupid." - Ron WhiteYou stay on them i they are good enough. Some kids are still working on qualifying by going to summer school or take the SAT/ACT late. (I remember one kid out in CyFair that took the SAT 6-7 times)
Who was Lampkin?What about any kids that OU have on their roster that Texas rejected as being too marginal academically?
Who was Lampkin?
We will omit Marcus Dupree for a total eff job by OU on him
True, but Switzer intentionally wrecked his career and that unbridled deplorable act should be a permanent black mark on OU football.Marcus was not an academic problem.
^^^This is very possible, and used to happen on a basis that was not so unique. Especially if the person in question was a good athlete. The way it could and did happen often was that the kid had an undiagnosed learning disability. Which usually meant dyslexia, a neurological visual perception problem. It has only fairly recently been recognized that dyslexia based reading problems are not rare.When it comes to recruiting dumb people, no one can touch Okie Lite. Dexter Manley ring a bell? How someone can go through high school and a total college career and be functionally illiterate is beyond me.
Some who actually researched it disagree.Switzer may be garbage white trash; but he did nothing wrong to Dupree. Dupree did it all to himself.
