Fire Phil --- Hire FRAN!!!

[smuhype]

Let's perform a swap ---- We give Bennett back to A&M plus $6MM in cash for Fran to come here....

Been fighting it for a long time, but admittedly it is all over again for another season.

When will this program ever turn around.

I firmly believe the impact of the DEATH PENALTY looms large for SMU!!

who gets fired first Franchione, Bennett or Guy Morris? They are all just about gone.

Franchione & Morris get fired. Bennett resigns.

In this order: Bennett, Franchione, Morris.

the trio of these guys...all are flunkies

a quote in the DMN tommorrow suggests Bennett ain't in the quittin' mood. Said somethin like he's never been the type to back out of the back door. If he has a lawyer, he ain't going to quit. Even an Aggie knows that.

Here's the brief from the DMN:

SMU would have to win five of its final six games to even have a chance at earning a bowl bid. "We've got Tulane at home and that's all we're going to worry about," Bennett said. "You look at this conference and it's just wild. I told the players this: 'I'm never a guy to back out of it.' "

Interpret that whatever you want.

would the arrival of Fran include my weekly newsletter telling me the inside scoop??

If he has a lawyer, he ain't going to quit.

He's not quitting because he's a good man.

Why in the world would we want Fran? Seriously, not trying to be an [deleted] here. I just don't see it after his Aggie performance...

What Death Penalty?

Look you are not going to find a Coach with Head Coaching experience that doesn't have a few negatives. Bowden, Neuheisal, Franchione. If you guys insist upon a Head Coach with experience you're just going to have to live with a few imperfections. My observation-is sure I would definitely consider Franchione. He has a much more impressive College Resume(aka the Gregg Super Bowl exception) than any head Coach in SMU History since the DP. Yes he should be considered. Don't start tossing away names until you know who is going to be interested. Franchione has not set the world on fire-but I think its because he has 2 of the Top 5 Recruiters in the Big 12 South. Plus Leach at Texas Tech who might be the No. 1 offensive mind in the Country. But the Aggies have at least gone to bowls, beat UT. Positives are that he has rebuilt multiple dead-beat programs(TCU, NM) from scratch, he recruits Texas, he is considered an excellent evaluator of talent. SMU has and could do worse-see Rossley, Cavan and Bennett. Before you start dismissing retread Coaches with experience-consider what Rich Brooks has done at Kentucky. Some of these guys can Coach
