As a local product, Brandon Epton Jr. was excited to get an offer from SMU, a school literally minutes away from his home and school.
Adding more local talent to the local team is a huge goal of the SMU football program. In the 2021 class, the Mustangs already have one of the elite recruits committed in Parish Episcopal School four-star quarterback Preston Stone.
On Friday, SMU offered a rising standout in Dallas Kimball running back Brandon Epton Jr. A three-star talent who can be a running back and a return specialist at 6-0 and 185 pounds, Epton added SMU to a growing offer list that includes Cal, Kansas and fellow American Athletic Conference school Houston.
