"How creepy is the scene at SMU? The headless horseman is riding Peruna after the Mustangs fired coach Phil Bennett on Sunday."


ESPN.com's Bottom 10

8. SMU 1-7 "Purple People Eater": Shed Wooley's one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater said said "it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine." At SMU, it's the coaches who get devoured.

did anyone stop to think, maybe they get devoured because they just weren't good coaches?

rather than blaming the school?

^^^ i was just going to post that! they're getting devoured because like you said, they're not good coaches to begin with.

He has got the money behind this hire. Money will bring us much better coaching this time. Stay positive !!

But we keep hiring them. Orsini I hope will change that, but we have said that before.

I am SMU. And I have a problem....

PLEASE break the spell and make a good hire!!

Darth still says that we need a witch doctor, druid, priest, imam, wiccan priestess, pastor, and/or any other spiritual leader to do an excorcism, spirit release, voodoo cancellation spell, and/or any other spiritual ceremony at halftime to release the evil spirits that haunt the SMU Football program.

However, this does exclude Svengali Phil.

i say you get what you pay for. i couldn't find previous coaches salaries, but i have a feeling that Bennett has been the most expensive in recent years at $500,000. According to the link posted below, the average coaches salary is around $950,000 per year. When we don't take football seriously and pay a coach half the national average, then you obviously get what you pay for.

I am willing to sacrifice a virgin before the start of next season if it gets us a winning season. At least, if we can find one on campus. We may have to settle for some geek over in the engineering school.

Phil Bennett has forgotten more about getting devoured that any of you will ever know!

I wonder what the Boston Red Sox did to get rid of their curse. Maybe we just need a stinker of a movie starring Jimmy Fallon.
