his son plays for the Cougars
his side/Houston side of the story was this:

last night's bad blood began when some
SMU players during the pre-game warmups
started stomping on the U-of-H logo

he said coach briles approached Coach Phil and
said "why do you let your players conduct
themselves that way?" Coach Phil said "what"?
and that he was unaware of what they had done.
And then Coach Briles said "don't you have control
of your players?".

he also said Justin Willis was talking trash the
whole night. He said that Justin was even talking
trash directly to the Houston head coach. After a run
down the sideline Justin supposedly screamed
"Coach Briles this is what I am gonna do all night long".

i guess it started last year when the Houston players
ran through the group of SMU players during warmup?

this could be a good rivalry over the next few years!


The Coogfan.com predictions posted in another thread (or possibly on the other board) reminded me of this thread. Do you think June Jones is into his players getting riled up with trash talk, or to be quiet and emotionless?

IIRC, wasn't the debacle w/ Cougar High something that drove JJ to nearly retiring, until Glanville came along?

I should hope that the players would be controlled in their lust for battle! An entirely emotionless team becomes apathetic towards the battle's outcome.

Maybe we'll see a record setting thrashing of Houston before JJ is done here to avenge his history and smu's history there.

I imagine they'll be quiet and very emotional
