Really wish my mom would have shared her feelings with me from the start before I made this huge decision....

Sorry TCU

Not obvious? See Jimmie Swain tweets at top of page. Committed to TCU, evidently mom has other ideas for his future.

I see that part. And I know we offered. But how are we tied to mom in this?

Simply by the fact that before her recent discussion with her son, he was solid to TCU.

Solid to TCU = bad.

So I'm rooting for mom to make him not solid to TCU so we might benefit.

Pretty obvious. We offer, he says he is solid, few days later, bingo bango.

Even if mom is pushing for him to stay home and go to Mizzou, that's an opening for us.

Fayetteville is a cake drive from Lee's Summit. Just a shade over 3 hours, while Ft. Worth is 8 1/2 or longer depending on traffic.

And they evidently haven't discussed his future until recently. The timing of our offer is irrelevant.

That's true, but we weren't even in his top 5.

Sure, mom may want him close and that may weigh in, but there's no way to know that's what was on her mind.

Once again. Irrelevant.

Without mom's influence, we have 0% chance. After mom, even if it's only gone up to 5%, we at least have a CHANCE.

Now you've got the spirit.

Seriously, though, I thought we got a fairly recent update that hinted we had improved our position? Anyone?

I see that Wingo got a nice little boost. Up to 94 and ranked 161, up from 398.

Hope Bielema can close the deal with him.

Josh Allen is visiting for the USM game. Would be a big flip from UNC.

So how much will it take to hire away Thomas Hammock?
