Argyle has its QB

After a competition through the first couple of weeks of practice, Argyle head coach Todd Rodgers has proclaimed sophomore Chad Hedlund as the No. 1 quarterback.

The son of the North Texas women's soccer coach, and quite the soccer star himself, will take over for JJ Harp, who's moved on to Eastern New Mexico. Hedlund had a great scrimmage last weekend in a dominating performance for the Eagles as they beat Frisco Centennial 30-6 in a half of game action after a controlled scrimmage.

"Hedlund is the No. 1 guy," Rodgers said. "But we're still sharing reps. We want to be prepared for whatever comes. [Backup QB] Patrick Vickery has done a fabulous job and it's important he gets those reps."

The Eagles got touchdown receptions from Brady Brown and Tyler Sweatt and the rest came on the ground.

Willis odd man out at SMU

Former Ryan quarterback Justin Willis went from being the primary beneficiary of June Jones' arrival to University Park to a No. 3 quarterback without even playing a game.

Jones announced that true freshman Bo Levi Mitchell and Braden Smith will start atop SMU's depth chart, leaving Willis, SMU's single-season touchdowns record-holder, out of the mix.

Here's Chuck Carlton's take, but how did this happen with Willis? Indications are he just didn't fit in Jones' offense, but there may be more to it as Willis was suspended for spring practice.

Argyle wide receiver Brady Brown just called me to say he has committed to Vanderbilt, turning down offers from Kansas and Nebraska, just to name a few. Brown is a 6-5 receiver with great hands who could make the transition to tight end at the next level.

Look for more in tomorrow's DR-C.
