Re: SMUMustangs.com: Dishkova Always Rallies Back

"Hristina was my first recruit after I became the head coach at SMU." Gyulai said. "When I started recruiting her, we were in the middle of a season that finished with only one win. Certainly, that was a big concern when it came to recruiting but Hristina was able to see through that. She got ...

Re: Women's tennis falls to Miami (Ohio)

1-8 & halfway to a repeat of the one-win 2012 season and can't even go .500 against the Southland teams.

Meanwhile our previous coach (who wanted to stay but who we didn't try to retain) is building a powerhouse at Auburn and her SMU assistant coach who was supposedly interested in our job but was ...

I hope we have some recruits on campus seeing this!

Re: Women's tennis falls to Miami (Ohio)

What is up with our women's tennis team?
Losing our assistant to be the assistant at North Texas?
Losses to Northwestern La State, A&M-Corpus Christi and Miami-Ohio?

Are we going to go 1-17 again?

Re: Mustang B.B. jersey for sale.

If that #12 jersey is from the Jimmy Tubbs or Matt Doherty days, that means it is a Jon Killen and it is worth nothing.

This is absurd. Jon Killen represented SMU basketball well when he was here. My time at SMU overlapped with his. Utmost respect for the guy. Our history isn't worth nothing ...

Re: W Tennis assistant left to go to be UNT asst

They have him listed as "assistant coach" but Campos is her husband and a volunteer so I don't think that's it. I saw we forfeited some matches to Texas Tech yesterday in a loss. Injuries again?

W Tennis assistant left to go to be UNT asst

Just looking at the roster today and noticed Jefferson Hammond was gone. I had the chance to interact with him a few times and he was an extremely friendly guy and seemed to know his stuff. Anyone know the story behind this? Seems like a weird move.

Re: W-Tennis: 2013 Class Ranked No. 13!

Publicizing objective rankings is what bad teams do. See Doh's "Top 25 Class" that one year and we know how that turned out.

By the way, the recruiting ranking in which we were supposedly #13 in the country, Houston is #9. Cougar High hasn't made the NCAA tournament or won against us since the ...

Very funny Mr. Gyulai. She got a good recruiting class, lets see if she can do anything with it. She inherited a lot of talent & didn't do much with it.

Re: W-Tennis: 2013 Class Ranked No. 13!

Good recruiting class but the days of Top 25 teams are long gone until we can get that facility built. Unfortunately Gyulai is no Longbotham (already has Auburn to top 25). Another Orsini mistake.

Re: Chris Petrucelli Named Women's Soccer Head Coach


I totally agree. It is a much more serious hire than some up-an-coming assistant from somewhere in my opinion and definitely shows a major commitment to the program.


It is a much more serious expenditure of money, I'm sure of that. I think he will do fine, the guy obviously knows his way around ...

Re: W Soccer - Coaching Speculation

Randy Waldrum took over at Notre Dame, he was not the assistant. He went from Tulsa, to Baylor, then to Notre Dame.


My mistake...but the point remains the same. Can't get it done at Texas, aren't going to get it done at SMU.
