  SMU linebacker Richard Moore announced he'll return to SMU for a final season. The Cedar Hill native was granted a sixth year of eligibility after missing the final 10 games of last season with an injury. Moore was SMU's top tackler in 2018, starting all 12 games for the Mustangs. That year he recorded 13.5 tackles for a loss and 92 tackles overall. He sat out the 2017 season after two seasons at Texas A&M, where he played in 19 games. Head coach Sonny Dykes said on Feb. 5 that the school was still in the process of putting together a waiver application for the NCAA to grant him a sixth year. Last season, after he went down, Richard McBryde took over his spot in the middle of SMU's defense. McBryde, an Auburn transfer, was also recently granted a sixth year of eligibility. - Dallas Morning News

  Shane Buechele's fundraiser hit paydirt for the city of Dallas. The Texas quarterback who transferred to SMU started a GoFundMe campaign in April with the goal of raising $50,000 for coronavirus relief. Buechele and his girlfriend, Paige, will deliver that money to Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson at 11 a.m. Thursday. SMU announced that Buechele's fundraiser had reached its monetary goal, and the $50,000 check will go to the Mayor's Disaster Relief Fund. "I was impressed with Shane Buechele's performance on the field last season for SMU, but I am far more impressed with his commitment to his community here in the city of Dallas," Johnson said in a statement released by SMU. "Dallas is a resilient city. We will recover from COVID-19, and the funds raised by Shane and Paige will help us get there." - Austin American Statesman

  After announcing he was entering the NCAA's transfer portal in mid-January, Arkansas freshman receiver TQ Jackson has found his transfer destination. Jackson, who caught one pass in his brief Razorbacks career, has committed to SMU, according to a post on his Twitter account. A native of Jefferson, Texas, he played in three games - Ole Miss, San Jose State, Texas A&M - in 2019. Jackson was a 4-star prospect, rated the No. 42 wide receiver in the country and No. 41 overall player in the state of Texas out of high school by Rivals. He was one of four 4-star receivers who signed with Arkansas in former coach Chad Morris' 2019 recruiting class. Jackson chose the Razorbacks over scholarship offers from Missouri, Arizona, Arizona State, Baylor, TCU, Texas Tech and other programs. - Northwest Arkansas Times

  It was the first day of the NFL draft. The first round. And former SMU tight end Ryan Becker watched nervously on television. "Like I know I wasn't going in the first round," Becker told The Dallas Morning News. "But still, you're just nervous watching it. Because it's just your future and you have no control over it at that point." Becker started six games last season, catching four passes totaling 30 yards. He often entered the game early and played a lot in the Mustangs' system that typically featured two tight ends.

In his four years with SMU, he made 16 catches. But his physicality and willingness to be a team-first player is what made the Arizona Cardinals want to sign him to an undrafted free agent contract in the hours after the draft ended. Even though Becker didn't have a ton of highlight reel catches, and even though SMU's pro day was wiped out by the coronavirus crisis, he still worked his way into an opportunity. "It's crazy and unbelievable....It's a huge weight lifted off your shoulders," Becker said. "Like I've always told people, all I need is my chance. I just needed a chance. And to finally get that chance and to know that I will put on pads again is a great feeling." - Dallas Morning News

  Former SMU and DeSoto wide receiver James Proche was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the No. 201 overall pick in Round 6 of the 2020 NFL Draft. Proche was one of the greatest wide receivers in Mustangs history, dropping just nine passes in his entire Mustangs career, according to Pro Football Focus. His 111 receptions in his senior season were the most in all of FBS, tied with LSU's Justin Jefferson. Perhaps his greatest single moment was a triple-OT walk-off catch against Tulsa to cap off a wild four-quarter comeback. That sent the nationally ranked Mustangs to a 6-0 start. He set school records for receiving touchdowns, career receptions, career receiving yards, and career all-purpose yards, among several more. From Dallas, Proche was ranked as a four-star recruit by ESPN coming out of DeSoto High School. He held offers from numerous top programs, including Louisville, Maryland, TCU and Wake Forest. - Dallas Morning News

The younger brother of Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley was set to be promoted to offensive coordinator at Appalachian State after serving as running backs coach in 2019. Like his older brother, Garrett Riley spent time on the Texas Tech roster as a quarterback before going into coaching. The younger Riley also played a season at Stephen F. Austin. Garrett Riley was the position coach of Sun Belt Conference offensive player of the year Darrynton Evans, who scored 20 points while rushing for 1,250 yards and compiling 1,740 all-purpose yards.
