One less vacancy on the job market. This probably helps SMU a bit. One less school to compete against for potential coaching candidates.

And the owner of the Arizona Diamondbacks who is a big WV booster (gave a millions $ to defray bowl costs) is major PO'd at the hire. Said it was like hiring a painter, not an architect, to design and oversee building your house.

This is a good thing. Now it's either the NFL or us for June Jones.
