Maybe that's it or maybe coaches have seen our model and are demanding changes before they will accept this job. I hope it's the latter.

I think that a change in our model and a lack of a indoor practice field is should be one of the demands of our new coach.

These are the top 10. I must assume we are going after Pete Caroll and are waiting until the Rose Bowl is completed until we announce it. All coaches are available--ask Petrino who has signed 3 long-term contracts in the last 18 months.

He'd be an OK hire. Not sure he would meet the WOW factor.

Lets throw out this "WOW" factor crap now because its useless to us...orsini, turner, or anyone else thats affilated with SMU never said WOW...it was a f'n rumor mill football blog that was posted over a month ago...so the WOW hire is becoming a NOW hire

Put it in the basement of the GWB Liberry or across the street on the Flower Mart/7-Eleven (SMU) property.

Why do we need to fix the model? We are Super Model University after all.
