Quote from article in today's Tulsa World:

"Why is it so difficult?

That’s a different question. Part of it is academics. It is tougher to get enough football players in school under tighter academic requirements than large public universities. Former SMU coach June Jones was especially vocal about SMU’s tight academic restrictions when he resigned earlier this season."

He is factual wrong. So, in addition to being a coward, he spins and misrepresents the situation. Not very flattering for him.

I am amazed that SMU has not sent tiki a cease and desist letter. The things he is saying are not true and he should be held accountable.

Also amazing how the media gives him such a platform to lie, let's be honest, without ever challenging or scrutinizing whatever he says. Sounds like what's going on in Washington now!
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

Lots and lots of hope being sold over the years, little change, and zeros to show for it.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled off was convincing the world that SMU has magically difficult admission standards.
