Problem is, they apparently don't know the difference between SMU and USM. :roll:

University of Southern Mississippi = USM...NOT SMU!!!

SMU = Southern Methodist University.

We get no respect.

I just got an email back from some guy named "Bobby" at SI. He says they are fixing the mistake. Took em a full day to realize SMU is not USM. Can you blame them, though? It's not like SMU and USM are BCS teams. :roll:

I suspect that President Turner doesn't spend his mornings trolling on the ESPN site. He may have a few other things to take care of.

Maybe they heard it was a story about players in legal trouble and just assumed it was SMU.

I bet Turner called PB this morning to request immediate suspension...pending school investigation....He does not know the players.

This is why I was glad we were in a conference with USM. It would create opportunities for the media to learn the difference. 8)
