Any thoughts as to the impact of the Football program / Jones hire will have on other sports at SMU?

One would think football revenues would increase if the program gets better. I suspect ticket sales will be way up for next season. More money in the athletic department can only help all the other sports.

Equally as exciting will be the eventual rise in enrollment!!! Also, how about a 100 member band!!! Wow...its a long time to the first game, but I cant wait!!!

I'm sure they'll give you a tiny storage room under the new natatorium...
