Just heard he may be coming to Dallas, apparently the Cowboys are looking to try to bring him back to the Dallas area.

YES! I mean, I don't like the Cowboys, but how cool would that be, to have a Pony roaming in Texas Stadium. Go get him, Tuna.

Here's what they wrote about Mitchell:

The Cowboys will keep looking, though, and former SMU cornerback Donald Mitchell is expected to visit on Wednesday. Mitchell, a four-year veteran, started nine games last year for Tennessee. He has spent most of his career as a nickel back and special teams player, scoring two touchdowns in 2001 off blocked kicks. He was a fourth-round pick in 1999 by Tennessee, but missed all of his second season with a torn ACL in his right knee.

Mitchell, a Beaumont, Texas, native, likely won't cost much more than the veteran minimum to sign, along with a small signing bonus.

Get him back to Dallas...and then get him to do testimonials to get people out to Ford Stadium!!!!!!

I still don't understand why the marketing folks don't use Eric Dickerson, Forrest Gregg, Don Meredith, Craig James, etc. to do 'commercials' for SMU football!
