DMN: Chad Morris is rebuilding SMU by recruiting in state

Smith: Chad Morris is rebuilding SMU by recruiting in state, and he's already winning some major battles

Chad Morris is using his kinship with Texas' HS coaching fraternity to SMU’s advantage. It's a genius move. http://www.dallasnews.com/sports/high-s ... 8782bc42f7 … #txhsfb

More damning June Jones revelations. Where are all those DMN Jones supporters now?

Con man will never coach college football again. That's why his latest chatter is about NFL 'opportunities'.

Morris the right guy at the right time for SMU football.

You guys need to read this and just feel sick

That POS missed out on Shane Carden because he can't be bothered to pick up the phone. My one phone call will be to Ponyfans to post bail. Just sayin.

It's definitely worth getting upset and feeling sick over. But I'm done with that.

That POS that stood on the sidelines doing nothing does not deserve a single second of our time or breath.

Chad Morris will be the best thing to happen to this football program since before I was born ('88), and I can't wait to watch it unfold. As we saw in another thread, that POS is already angling towards taking credit for whatever Morris accomplishes. I just hope the DMN doesn't revert back and give him praise when it comes.

Let's officially bury the June Jones era - articles like that make my blood boil, but for what? I don't need that kind of stress!!

Can't believe how truly bad Jones and his staff were for SMU. WHAT A FRAUD!

Trust in coach Morris!!

[Charleston Pony]

oh there will be another tirade against JJ when he claims credit for turning things around at SMU once Morris builds this program to a level where SMU can compete against our former SWC mates

Agreed. Turn the page.

[couch 'em]

Bury nothing. He will take credit for Morris. Must make sure nobody believes

[ponyinNC]

Good point. If jones tries that, fuggetaboutit - no holds barred.

I almost dropped my phone when I read that. Stunning. #neverforget

[Junior]

I hate what JJ did to this program. But I'm more excited about HCCM. pony up!

I'll be the first to admit that I absolutely love what Coach Morris and his staff are doing recruiting wise, but let's not get too ahead of ourselves. Coach Jones and his staff were extremely less dedicated in terms of recruiting, but they did put us back on the map. Had we hired someone other than Coach Jones, we might be looking at 30+ year without a bowl game. Don't forget that.

To be fair, he did his best to take us off the map after the 2011 fiasco.

June Jones is a disgrace. He took a terrible program and made it mediocre only to return it to terrible and people on here want to build a statue for him. Thankfully he's gone and Chad Morris has done more in a month to rebuild this roster and energize this fanbase than June did in the last five years.

And no. I will never forget or forgive June for what has gone on here since Arizona State.
