JJ really wants Hawaii

[OR-See-Nee]

In post game interview, JJ says that if SMU is eligible for the Liberty Bowl, he hopes CUSA officials will see that it is better for SMU to go to Hawaii and for East Carolina or similar team to go to Liberty Bowl.

Not sure what I think about this. I'd love us playing in the Liberty Bowl. Really any bowl.

[Pony_Fan]

Yes he does. Really really weak. You want as many fans there as possible.

[expony18]

he is craving some maui wowi

[indianmustang]

thats what i tought so he really wants hawaii

[untitled]

Agreed. I'd rather vacation in Hawai'i, but I'd rather go bowling in Tennessee.

Let's hope we win and get the CUSA championship and we have no choice but Liberty

As I said in the game thread, with JJ's salary he can take the team to the Liberty Bowl and then take a vacation to Hawaii!!!

[that's great raplh]

that was a strange comment

with 2m a year he can fly to the islands whenever he wants

Let's hope we win and get the CUSA championship and we have no choice but Liberty

I dont think winning the conf is an auto invite to liberty bowl..it is my understanding they get to choose. Histroically, they have picked the winner of C USA though

I would love to see us play SEC team in Memphis...I already have a room at the peabody...

[Harry0569]

Screw it let's go to Memphis

[Statler]

The Hawaii Bowl pays 400k vs the Liberty Bowl's 1.7 million.

Plus you get to play a SEC opponent in the Liberty Bowl v. a WAC opponent in the Hawaii Bowl.

SMU's AD is over 3 million in debt..........It would be foolish to pass up the Liberty Bowl.

Fan petition

No Hawaii!! -- $800 flight / Christmas Eve = not many fans!

[Paladin]

JJ may have his reasons and may actually be thinking ahead to recruiting season ? I'd rather us go to Memphis but I'll take whatever he wants.....

[indianmustang]
