The SMU football<\/a><\/strong> team wrapped up its spring on Friday night with a Spring Showcase in front family, former players, recruits and select season ticket holders at the Pettus Practice Field.<\/p>\n

SMU head coach Rhett Lashlee<\/a><\/strong> spoke about the spring and the state of the Mustangs roster entering the next phase of the offseason.<\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cWell, spring is over. We came out of it pretty healthy, I believe. Jonathan Jefferson<\/a><\/strong> got hurt our first week, which not great, and he\u2019s going to be out for an extended amount of time. But other than that, we got out of spring without a lot of other injuries. Hopefully we\u2019ll get everybody else back this summer and get about another 15-20 guys in here, a lot of these freshmen that aren\u2019t here yet till June, and get going. Spring\u2019s unique this time of year, with the portal and all that stuff. I thought our team and our players handled it great. We had a a number of guys that we knew, and weren\u2019t caught off guard by, that decided to go into the portal and we\u2019re supporting them. They\u2019ve all given a lot to SMU, we\u2019re grateful for them. They\u2019ve been a big part, some of them, of us winning 22 games in the last two years, and they want to play. And we want to help guys go where they can have a chance to start and play more if that\u2019s what their dream is. But we\u2019re excited about the guys that are here and get into the summer and start really building the team for for the fall.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What is the extent of the Jefferson injury?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cIt\u2019s an injury that I think he\u2019ll probably have to have surgery on in the next week or so, and it\u2019s probably at least a six month recovery. So when it happens this late, and that takes you into October, November. And so I think at this point, unless something happens maybe that we\u2019re not expecting, he probably will redshirt medically next year and try to come back and play his final year. It would have been his final year and we were counting on him, so it\u2019s a big loss for us, but others will have to step up. Fortunately, he should make a good recovery and medically, I would think he\u2019s a he\u2019s going to be able to apply and get his that year back to play the following year. So I just don\u2019t know if he\u2019ll be healthy enough in time to play enough of the season to make it worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What are the expected additions through the transfer portal?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cNot a ton. I mean, I think that, to your point, we\u2019re waiting to see what the settlement looks like. We\u2019re waiting to see what roster limits look like. So you\u2019re kind of in, having to be in, a holding pattern on that. At same time, even if you had good conversations with some of the guys who decided to go into the portal, and you understand why they\u2019re doing it, some you weren\u2019t sure if they would or not. That\u2019s why some of them happened this week. And so you weren\u2019t, maybe, necessarily planning to replace certain spots and so that changes a little bit. But I wouldn\u2019t think a ton more. I think the biggest thing is we got about three hours and 34 minutes to get to the deadline to then know, \u2018OK, these are the guys that are for sure staying on our roster.\u2019 And then once we get past that, we\u2019ll know exactly how many slots are left available. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s going to be more than three or four, maybe five. I have to go, I don\u2019t carry the one as good as I used to, I\u2019ve got that Arkansas math. But we got to go see how many of the 85 are available after we get through the portal deadline. So we\u2019ll try to find the right fits to help our team. But I think the majority of the team is here, with the exception of, I think we had eight freshmen come in January, and did a great job. I mean, I was really impressed with the eight freshmen. And then the rest of that class, which is a really good class, will be here in about a month. I think that, plus the injured guys, the RJ Marylands<\/a><\/strong>, the Matthew Hibners<\/a><\/strong>, I think Zion Nelson<\/a><\/strong> will be full go this summer, which I know no one here has really been able to see a lot of him, but he\u2019s doing a great job. And there\u2019s others that I\u2019m drawing a blank on, I think most of those guys will be able to have a good summer for us. So not too many I don\u2019t think, as long as we get past midnight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: In the changing landscape of college football, how do you evaluate the spring?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cYou said the changing landscape, what does spring look like next year? I don\u2019t know. Are we doing it the same we\u2019ve always done it? Are we not having it at all? Are we playing other schools? Like 365 days right now in college football is a long time, so I\u2019m not worried about that right now. But, yeah, spring is different. You know what I feel like we wanted to get done, we wanted to fundamentally get better. We got a lot of different guys reps. These last two practices we divided the team in half so we didn\u2019t have, like our offensive line, if you have your Top 10 of, they were split up, same thing at wide out and DB. And so what it did is it had a lot of different guys working together. And sometimes that means it looks ugly, and sometimes it looks good, but a lot of guys were getting reps to develop and get better. And then just the team continuity and the culture. And again, I mean, I\u2019m kind of in awe of our team and our players to be able to go through spring ball and a transfer portal in this day and age, and to be professional like they were, I think we got something out of it. Again, we wish the ones the best that are going to be looking for a new home, and I think a lot of them are going to have success wherever they go, and the ones that are here we\u2019re excited to come back at the end of May, and really, for the next eight to 10 weeks in the summer, really put our team together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: How important was the spring for the freshmen who enrolled early?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cOh, a lot. I mean, it doesn\u2019t mean the guys that are coming in in a month aren\u2019t going to have a chance to help us. I think we\u2019ve got a couple offensive linemen, they\u2019re going to help us. I think we got a corner, couple safeties that can help us. I think we\u2019ve got a few linebackers, D linemen we\u2019ve got couple more wideouts coming in and so running back. But, yeah, I mean, the last month for Jalen Cooper<\/a><\/strong> has been huge. Daylon Singleton<\/a><\/strong> was doing some good things too. Missed the last week and a half with just a mild concussion. He\u2019s been cleared and he\u2019ll be fine. But I mean, those reps give those guys a chance to make an impact in the fall. Same thing, you look at our secondary, I think Tyren Polley<\/a><\/strong>, I think Javion (Holiday<\/a><\/strong>), even Jalen Shivers<\/a><\/strong> up front, some of those guys getting those reps is going to give them a chance to help us this fall, where if they\u2019re coming in in June and not really getting those kind of reps till August, I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t know if they help or if it\u2019s later in the season. So it definitely helps for those that could do it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: How do you evaluate the current quarterback room?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cLook, it\u2019s no different in this situation that always gets the most attention. Keldric Luster<\/a><\/strong> is a winner. He came here out of high school as a winner. He came here in Day 1 and was a great teammate in the winter and performed well and was a guy that we had a lot of confidence last year going down that stretch. I know we had Kevin and Preston, but like if something happened and we had to play Keldric, we felt good about it. He\u2019s a Division I quarterback, Division I starting quarterback. I think a big part of him loves SMU and wanted to be here, but he\u2019s going into his third year and at quarterback\u2019s tough. It\u2019s not like wide out and other positions, where you can rotate guys, and so it gives him a chance to start somewhere. I know there\u2019s already teams interested in him. So, we hate to see him go, but man, we\u2019re for him, and yeah, it makes our quarterback room thinner. <\/p>\n

Obviously Kevin (Jennings<\/a><\/strong>) got through it healthy, and we\u2019re excited about just the continued development of him. I\u2019m excited for him to have a summer with a lot of the guys healthy and around him and continue to lead. Our team believes in him a lot. I think Ty Hawkins<\/a><\/strong>, for a freshman, was really solid. I mean, he was steady from the first day to the last. He didn\u2019t get too high, didn\u2019t get too low. He didn\u2019t have any days where it looked like he hit a wall, mentally he handled it, physically he handled it. So it\u2019s just more opportunity for him sooner than later, and then we\u2019ll see where Tyler Van Dyke<\/a><\/strong>\u2018s knee is. His rehab is doing well, but that\u2019s the three guys we have right now. And then Charlie Fiser<\/a><\/strong>. You know, NFL teams carry two and a third. So, yeah, we could get thin pretty quick. That\u2019s that\u2019s probably how it affects us. But I look at it differently. I mean, we could be dishonest with a kid and try to get past the portal and then have a fourth quarterback. Or we can be honest and try to help him, and if he wants to play, support him, and that\u2019s kind of what we chose to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: Are you comfortable with the quarterback room as it currently stands?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cI would as long as they all stay healthy. Yeah. I mean, here\u2019s what I\u2019m comfortable with, I\u2019m really comfortable with Kevin. I think that probably goes without saying. I\u2019m really comfortable with Ty as a freshman. Don\u2019t get me wrong, he\u2019s a freshman, but, Kevin Jennings came in as a freshman and, at times, got thrown into the action and had poise. I see some of that same poise in Ty, both intangibly but also physically. I know Coach (D\u2019Eriq) King<\/a><\/strong>\u2018s excited to get the summer and fall camp with him, but he showed us that he could be ready to be called upon if he has to be as a freshman. That doesn\u2019t mean he\u2019s going to be ready to roll. He\u2019s still a freshman. And then I want to believe that either at the beginning of the year or at some point in the year, Tyler Van Dyke would be healthy, and I totally believe in him. So I think the three we have will all be capable of going in and helping us win games. But three\u2019s one less than four. And I got a lot of faith in Charlie too, but we\u2019ve gotten to our third guy before, so that\u2019s a concern for anybody. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut I think in this day and age with the transfer portal, roster limits, the revenue sharing, I think you\u2019re going to see certain aspects of our game go to more like a pro game in terms of depth. We don\u2019t have a 53-man roster, but guys are leaving quicker if they\u2019re not the starter or a high rep backup and they\u2019re not getting certain revenue share opportunities, they\u2019re going to leave quicker, which means it\u2019s going to be harder to consistently have great depth. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s going to be an issue that only we have. It\u2019s a long winded way to say I would love to have four healthy quarterbacks, but I do believe in those three guys and we\u2019re going to have to make it work.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What can you say about current transfer portal additions?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cThe ones I can speak to have signed. TJ (Harden<\/a><\/strong>) signed, and he was a UCLA\u2019s leading rusher last year. I think Derrick McFall<\/a><\/strong> and Chris Johnson<\/a><\/strong>, CJ had a really good spring. Those guys are explosive, they\u2019re versatile, they\u2019re great in space, they can run it, they can catch it, similar to things Brashard (Smith<\/a><\/strong>) was doing. So those guys are really good weapons for us. You think how Brashard and Roderick Daniels<\/a><\/strong> were used, there\u2019s some similarities, and they\u2019re their own people, but we needed a bigger, more physical back with LJ (Johnson<\/a><\/strong>) deciding (to transfer). LJ is another great example going to Rice. I think he\u2019ll rush for 1,000 yards at Rice but we lost a big back there. <\/p>\n

\u201cSo TJ gives us a big back, but he has some speed and he has some some some wiggle. He\u2019s not just a physical downhill runner, he can get in space, he can catch the ball. So I think he gives us a bigger back to help in that rotation, but he\u2019s got experience. Those three guys we\u2019ll lean on and then, of course, Dramekco (Green<\/a><\/strong>) gets here, he\u2019ll be the young freshman. Again, it goes back to the same thing in the quarterback room, we may only have four scholarship running backs. I mean, used to having five, but there\u2019s four quality running backs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: Did you try to talk any of the players who entered the transfer portal into staying?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cNo, not in this case and it doesn\u2019t mean that we wanted them all to leave. There were some guys that, if they said, \u2018Man, I want to stay,\u2019 we would have gladly welcomed them to stay. But of the guys that chose to leave and why they chose to leave, they chose to leave because they want to play. Either they\u2019re on their last year, and maybe some cases not just play, like LJ would have played, but \u2018I want to start. I want to be the guy.\u2019 OK. And they can maybe guarantee that elsewhere. And then there\u2019s other guys that have a chance to maybe go start and play sooner elsewhere. And so we were honest with them and where they were in our depth chart, and said, \u2018Hey, you can stay and this is what it looks like and if they choose to leave, either way, we\u2019re going to support you.\u2019 We weren\u2019t trying to do anything but be honest and we weren\u2019t trying to talk people in or out of things, we were just trying to support them. And once they made the decision, because we want people that want to be here, so if they want to be here, great. Even if they want to be here but they feel like it\u2019s in their best interest to leave, then we\u2019re going to support them. I think that\u2019s just the day and age it is. Again, I think you\u2019ll see a lot of those guys go be really successful wherever they go.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What have you seen from the secondary so far?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cI think we\u2019ve got a chance to have a better secondary. We\u2019re going to miss a Jonathan McGill <\/a><\/strong>and that kind of experience, and CJ (Sanders<\/a><\/strong>), two older guys. But, I mean, you turn to Ahmaad Moses<\/a><\/strong> and Isaiah Nwokobia<\/a><\/strong>, that\u2019s two, in my opinion, All-ACC, All-American in Isaiah\u2019s case, I think Ahmad too, caliber safeties, all right. Now we\u2019ve got another four or five guys that are good football players, who\u2019s going to step up? Kyron Chambers<\/a><\/strong> and Jaden Milliner-Jones<\/a><\/strong>, he missed spring, he should be back healthy soon. Like, OK, what are those guys do? And then, like I said, we\u2019ve got freshmen like Tyren Polly able to get in there. Jaylen Moses<\/a><\/strong>, coming off a redshirt year, got a lot of reps. We\u2019re excited to see who steps up for that third or fourth spot. <\/p>\n

\u201cAt corner, you return Deuce (Harmon<\/a><\/strong>) and Smoke (Jaelyn Davis-Robinson<\/a><\/strong>), who got a lot of reps last year. Speedy (Nettles<\/a><\/strong>) got a lot better this spring. You\u2019ve got Javion (Holiday) on in there. Marcellus (Barnes Jr.<\/a><\/strong>) was here, was limited in spring, but you could see his movement skills. He should be fully cleared pretty soon, and then you\u2019ve got a freshman like Zay Gentry<\/a><\/strong> coming in. So I think we\u2019ve gotten longer, I think we\u2019ve gotten faster. I think in some ways, with the returns, we\u2019ve got more experience at corner and we got more depth. And so hopefully that allows us to take the next step as an entire group back there. Yeah, I think the obvious people we got to replace is that third safety where McGill and CJ were pretty reliable guys.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What returning players stood out this spring?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cMan, there\u2019s a lot of people to talk through. I think, when you go to defense, the people that stood out quickly, just from leadership as we take the next step, some of the obvious ones, Isaiah Nwokobia, Ahmaad Moses. I think Alexander Kilgore<\/a><\/strong>, who\u2019s played a lot in his first two years, is kind of ready to take that leadership role at linebacker, and obviously production as well. I think he was everything we thought he\u2019d be as a leader of that unit with Kobe (Wilson<\/a><\/strong>) and Ahmad (Walker<\/a><\/strong>) leaving. I think you look on the D-line, we lost some really good D-linemen, but some leaders too. And I think Cam Robertson<\/a><\/strong> has been excellent. I think Isaiah Smith<\/a><\/strong>, those are the veteran guys. One\u2019s been here three years now, going on his third year, one going on his fourth. They\u2019re not just good players, but they\u2019re also worrying about other people now, so those guys got to step up for us. I think Kevin Allen<\/a><\/strong> had a great spring at D-tackle. He\u2019s a guy that came out of high school and it just took maybe a year or two and now he\u2019s got a chance to really get in the rotation and help us.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd then go to offense, I was pleased with the obvious ones being PJ (Williams<\/a><\/strong>) and being Logan (Parr<\/a><\/strong>) stepping up. But I think Josh Bates<\/a><\/strong> and Addison Nichols<\/a><\/strong> stepped right in and really add a lot to our unit on the inside. I really do. I think Andrew Chamblee<\/a><\/strong> may have had the best spring of anybody. When you take the winter, like he changed his body. If you saw him out there, he looks bigger. You know what I mean, that was his issue last year. He was long, but just the strength. He\u2019s bigger. He\u2019s stronger. You give him a summer, he\u2019s got a chance to really be a good player for us. So upfront, those guys. And then I already mentioned Derrick McFall. I think Derrick McFall, for a true sophomore, you saw flashes of him as a freshman. We\u2019re excited about him. And then we need Romello Brinson<\/a><\/strong> and Jordan Hudson<\/a><\/strong> to step up and be the leaders and have the kind of season I know they know they\u2019re capable of. And so all those guys, to me, did some really nice things. I\u2019m sure I left some out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: With the current state of the wide receiver room, is there a chance of using three tight ends regularly?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cThat\u2019s a challenge this spring, you all ask about development, RJ Maryland didn\u2019t go through spring, for the most part Matthew Hibner didn\u2019t go through spring. That\u2019s two of our better players that are going to play a lot, so you don\u2019t necessarily see what the offense is going to become without them. But yeah, I think you\u2019ll see if those guys are healthy, they\u2019ll be on the field a lot. Adam Moore<\/a><\/strong> will play a lot. I do think Tripp Riordan<\/a><\/strong> took some steps in the right direction to be able to give us some depth there as well. It\u2019ll depend, yeah, we\u2019re going to get our best players out there, and our tight end room has a chance, if healthy, to be really good, be really productive. I think RJ and Matt are two, they\u2019re seniors to be, they\u2019re two NFL players, so we\u2019d be crazy not to use them more. And we were starting to do that when RJ got hurt last year. We also need some of those young guys to step up. I think, again, Jaylen Cooper and Daylon here, the guys coming in and then Link Rhodes<\/a><\/strong>, the junior college kid. We went out and got him intentionally, hoping he can come in and just plug and play and make a big impact. I do think you might see us use more 12 personnel than we would have in the past, and that\u2019s fine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: Could Moore play in the slot?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cI think Adam has a lot of versatility. He could play in the backfield, he could split out. He\u2019s still got, in just the details and the finer things of playing out in space to do, but the athleticism and size and ball skills are there. I think those three guys, to your point, are at tight end about as athletic as you can get anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What did you think of the offensive line this spring?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cSo the way we did spring is we went eight practices out of the gate, and then we took like a week where we only practiced a light Friday, almost like a reload week. And then we finished these last two weeks where we went really twice a week. We divided them into teams, compete and have some fun. Those first eight weeks, I thought I saw the signs of an O-line that has a chance to even take the next step. And I think we\u2019ve been good on the O-line the last two years, but I think our depth, I think we have enough returning experience with guys like PJ and Logan and Savion (Byrd<\/a><\/strong>) and Nate (Anderson<\/a><\/strong>) and Andrew (Chamblee). That\u2019s some really quality players with experience, but then you bring in Josh (Bates) and Addison (Nichols) with experience, but add a lot to the inside. And then I do, we expect Dramodd Odoms<\/a><\/strong> and Abel (Hoopii<\/a><\/strong>) to come in and compete to be in the rotation of the two deep for freshmen. And look, if they\u2019re not, that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re not going to be great, but we\u2019re going to give them every chance to be. I am optimistic our O-line, if we can stay healthy, has a chance to be really good this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What is your ideal way to end spring practices?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cThat\u2019s a great question that I haven\u2019t thought about, so I probably won\u2019t get the best answer. Yeah, I mean, with the college football setup the way it is right now, I know there\u2019s a lot on the table once the settlement gets settled one way or the other, do we continue with spring ball? Do we move to more of an NFL OTA model in late May and June? Think there\u2019s a lot of, maybe, support for both. If the model changes, then you can answer. That\u2019s the hard part about college football right now, until we know the hard rules, it\u2019s kind of hard to tell you what we think is best. Because as soon as we tell you, then the rules change and well, that wouldn\u2019t be good anymore, let\u2019s do this. When should the portal be? Well, I don\u2019t know what are the rules going to be next year? All of that, I think, takes into account. Look, you want to do a spring, if you have spring football, you want to do either a spring game or a spring showcase or spring event for your fans. That\u2019s why you do it. You do it for your fans to come and see your team and get a sneak peek. You do it for your players to be in front of your fans, and that\u2019s really the reason you do it. After that, you don\u2019t want to get players hurt. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhether you go in March or you go in April, we\u2019ve already talked about it, a kid can get hurt and needs a six month surgery, he\u2019s going to at least miss half the season. So that\u2019s a challenge, but it\u2019s also football. If the portal stuff is altered a lot, the people out there wanting to play spring showcases. I think that\u2019s a great idea, just I do think the one thing that is, are we going to get guys hurt? And now that you\u2019re paying guys, you\u2019re doing this, you\u2019re doing that. I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t know. I think we need to get the rules, and I\u2019m hedging a little bit on the answer. I think we need to get the rules of the game, and then I think we need to rethink it. I think what we\u2019ve done so many times is, when the rules shift a little then we try to shift everything with the rules and it doesn\u2019t make it fit anymore. <\/p>\n

\u201cSo give us the rules and then let\u2019s start with a blank slate and say, \u2018What do we need college football 2025-26 to look like now?\u2019 Not what did it look like in 1995 or 2010 and let\u2019s try to keep some of those old (things). If they don\u2019t fit anymore, let\u2019s change. You know what I mean? We didn\u2019t used to have a Signing Day in December, we used to have it in February. We didn\u2019t used to have OVs in June, now we do. Well, a lot of this other stuff has stayed the same around those and all that is big changes, I just think we need to start over and say what\u2019s best for college football and get a new plan, and then I\u2019ll answer what spring ball should be.\u201d<\/p>\n

Q: What are the biggest question marks for the team following spring?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lashlee: \u201cI think we\u2019ve got a chance and I think we\u2019ve got a long way to go, because it\u2019s it\u2019s hard to have the level of success we want to have. But I do think we have a team that has a chance. I think the biggest thing we have to figure out is where are we going to replace the production on the D-line, particularly the interior D-line. I think we have enough for turning players and incoming guys on the edges to still be really good. Where do we have, not only the production, but the depth at D-tackle. And I think linebacker. When you lose two linebackers of caliber we did, we like the guys that are back, it\u2019s just a lot. That\u2019s a lot of games, that\u2019s a lot of tackles, that\u2019s a lot of experience. So I think that\u2019s the area on defense that we need, right up the middle. And we believe in the linebackers on our roster and we believe in the D linemen, getting them all healthy and all that, and some of the pieces coming in. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think that\u2019s a big question mark, is can we still play at the same level we did last year? Which was important to our defense and our team. And then I think offensively if, potential is a scary word because all it means is you haven\u2019t done it yet, but if everybody\u2019s healthy, it\u2019s can our wide receivers and our passing game perform to the potential that I think we have. I think it\u2019s there, but consistently can we do it? Can we be counted on and be reliable enough to to execute at the level that I think Kevin and that group are capable of? If we can do those things, those one thing on each side of the ball, I think we\u2019ve got chance to have a good football team.\u201d<\/p>\n
