You mean JJ would not take time to recruit or scout Burcham. I'm shocked

June Jones cannot evaluate QBs. With the exception of Gilbert, June's alleged specialty has been a dumpster fire.

Gilbert was the #1 qb prospect in the country at one time. Taking a chance on him required no scouting skills whatsoever

How many QB's has June coached who have played in a regular season NFL game?

It seems like at times he slings the ball instead of throwing it.

In seven years at SMU, June has not developed a single QB he recruited. Not one.

you can say that again
I will not make age an issue in this campaign. I'm not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience.

Delivery is terrible. It's slow and he dips his wrist to a partial sidearm motion. That won't cut it in D1.

How much did Garrett Gilbert's performance last year cover just how bad this program was falling? Gilbert fell into June's lap. How many wins last year if a June recruited QB had started all year?
