...aftger the financial talk...hopefully goes like this...
Jones: I like the money and want to come but can't win unless I can recruit. And I can't recruit unless you let in who I say gets in. If we can't agree on my way then I am going to stay put.
SO: I think we can reach an academic standards compromise.
Turner: I am concerned about the (militant) faculty and our reputation.
Jones: Well then we are done here, Thank you both for your time but--
SO: GEEEEERRRRAAAAALD
(ponyfans.com: I KNOW STEVE IS A BUMBLING IDIOT BUT TURNER IS GOING TO BE THE ONE TO BLOW THIS)
Turner: Okay, Steve.
SO: Anyone you want, June.
Jones: Gentlemen, I think we've got ourselves a deal.
Turner: uhhh..great? (what did I just do?)
SO: Welcome aboard, Coach Jones.
SMU Coach June Jones: Let's win some G-D football games

Any more news on the flight? Is JJ in Dallas or en route, or does anyone know anything more than I do?
