12/15/22 - Tyler Van Dyke, rSr/2026, Southern Methodist, 6-4, 225 (DS#21 QB) + More +

Signs continue to point toward UM quarterback Tyler Van Dyke returning to play for the Hurricanes next season. Van Dyke agreed to an NIL deal with John Ruiz's LifeWallet, announced Ruiz, who indicated Van Dyke will remain with the Hurricanes. UM officials have been expecting Van Dyke to bypass the NFL draft to return to play for the Hurricanes next season. He would very likely be UM's starting quarterback next season. Van Dyke was sidelined and limited by a shoulder injury over the final month of this past season. He finished the season with 1835 yards passing, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions in nine games. - Miami Herald

Brandon Crossley picked off a Seth Henigan pass in the back of the end zone with two seconds left to preserve SMU's 34-31 win over Memphis Saturday in the regular-season finale for both schools. Henigan drove the Tigers 76 yards to set up second-and-goal at the SMU 9 with 14 seconds left, needing only a field goal to send the game into overtime. He rolled to his left and floated a pass intended for a receiver streaking along the end line only to have Crossley make a leaping interception. Tanner Mordecai fired 24 yards to Rashee Rice early in the fourth quarter, then drove the Mustangs 66 yards in 12 plays to set up Collin Rogers' 23-yard field goal to take a 34-23 lead. But Henigan answered by hitting Roc Taylor from 7-yards out, then finding Gabriel Rogers for a two-point conversion to pull Memphis within 34-31 with 2:36 left in the game.

SMU's Austin Upshaw pounced on the on-sides kick, but the Mustangs could not make a first down and punted, giving the Tigers the ball at their own 16. Mordecai was 22 of 30 for 228 yards and two touchdowns and Tyler Lavine carried it 25 times for 64 yards and two scores to lead SMU (7-5, 5-3 American Athletic Conference). Rice caught 13 passes for 147 yards. Henigan was 27 of 44 for 287 yards and a touchdown, with Javon Ivory catching six for 98 yards for Memphis (6-6, 3-5). Jevyon Ducker carried 10 times for 81 yards. SMU won for just the fifth time in 15 meetings with Memphis. Since both teams joined the AAC, the Tigers lead the series 7-3. - SMU/AP College Football

Preston Stone passed to Rashee Rice for a 75-yard touchdown on the first play from scrimmage and SMU never trailed in a 45-34 victory over Tulsa on Saturday. Tyler Lavine followed with the first of his three short touchdown runs on the day and SMU (4-4, 2-2 American Athletic Conference) led 14-0 before the game was five minutes old. Lavine's second scoring run helped the Mustangs take a 24-7 lead at halftime.

10/27/22 - Tyler Van Dyke, rSr/2026, Southern Methodist, 6-4, 225 (DS#21 QB) + More +

Miami Hurricanes coach Mario Cristobal would not say late Wednesday morning whether quarterback Tyler Van Dyke is out for Saturday's Virginia game, amid a report that Jake Garcia will start. Cristobal, on a Zoom conference call with the media, said Van Dyke "has improved a bunch" and that "the status [for Virginia] is still unknown and we will determine that a little bit later. Jake has practiced really well so we feel confident obviously in the room. We'll have an update by Friday, closer to game time." A bit later in the call, Cristobal was asked if Van Dyke practiced this week. "Tyler has practiced very little,'' the coach said. "Jake has taken a lot of the reps. Jacurri [Brown] has taken a bunch of reps. Peyton Matocha has taken a good amount of reps as well. We're preparing everybody, with Jake taking the majority of reps thus far. "We'll see where we are by late Thursday, late Friday." - Miami Herald

SMU true freshman corner Jayden Lawton announced his intention to sit out the rest of the season and transfer when the transfer portal opens. Lawton made the announcement on his Instagram. Lawton, a cousin of former NFL wide receiver Michael Crabtree, was looked at as a very raw, but talented prospect for the Mustangs. The 6-foot-4 corner was primarily a basketball player until he started playing high school football at Lovejoy. Lawton was listed as a three-star recruit with offers from SMU, Ohio and Illinois, according to 247Sports. - Dallas Morning News
