Dwan Returns
Posted: Wed Jan 09, 2008 4:17 pmHave been out of the country. My thoughts on June Jones.
1)WOW
2)Orsini put his balls on the table and won. Took a lot of risks, but to win big, you have to risk big. Coffee is for closers and Steve should be drinking coffee.
3)We hire only the second coach from a non-bcs conference that took his team to a BCS bowl game. The other being Urban Meyer.
4)I cannot think of a better coach. Success in the NFL, took an 0-12 Hawaii team and turned them around to 8-4 in his first year. So he has coached in the NFL and has success turning around a down program.
5)Most importantly, he is a hot coach now. Not 5 years ago, not 10 years ago, now.
6) If it looked like he would have been available 2 months ago, I bet Michigan, Arkansas, Georgia Tech would all have loved to make a strong move for him.
7)There is more national excitment surrounding this hire in the local and national media. It is the biggest story at SMU since the death penalty.
Go Mustangs!
