C'mon people, its really looking like no one wants to come to this so called "coaching graveyard" of a school.

we turned down probably the best coach availiable (sp), Gary Barnett...BEST RESUME out of any coach without a job...

first we thought Krag was the guy and then PJ, and now it looks like we are going to have a new frontrunner by hump day.

TURNER-ORSINI, call up GB and sign him...

the moneys right but no one really wants this job do they?

I don't know about the others on this site who've been getting the same calls, but SMU has called me about 20 times in the past 2 weeks and every time that number pops up on caller ID I cringe at the thought of answering. I am afraid it's SO calling to offer me the job.

Does anyone REALLY want you on this board?

we discussed this earlier. It's an Infosys empolyee. Next time, answer, and see how many times you can bait him/her into saying "sorryforthat"

It's a legitimate question at this point.

im sure there are a few who dont but you gotta admit that im no where on the level of whitney houston, therealtruth, or bigdaddy...

its not my fault some feel this place is a coaching graveyard...i dont...i actually think theres hope for a new coach to turn us around in 3-5 years

Rest assured, that's not the case. I'm sure it's telemarketing.

It's weird for me to be on here - I found this site because I'm a big fan of Coach Bennett. But I also came to realize on my visits that SMU is a pretty awesome place. No, I didn't go there, but I am officially hooked as a fan. It's a terrific academic school, and the players the new coach will inherit (with a few key additions, of course) set up the new coach to look like a genius because he'll win in this conference. There is enough here (money, campus, academics, location, stadium, young players, etc.) to make it appealing to some coaches - the panic here is way too knee-jerk.

The SMU job has one clear advantage.....There is NO media coverage. Kate can just plagiarize the Raleigh press and the coach won't have to worry about ever taking questions from anyone!
