... who logged in to the June Jones chat as "PonyFans.com" - and elicited the line of the entire chat:
PonyFans.com: We're lucky enough to have a punter, Thomas Morstead, with what appears to be a bionic leg. Does having a guy with a leg like that change your strategy when a drive reaches midfield, or the area where coaches have to decide whether to go for it or punt the ball away?
June Jones: I don’t think about punting.

I saw that too. JJ is exceedingly confident.

A classic response. I like this guy.

He is able to walk that tight rope of being confident without going overboard. Hearing him speak at the Dallas Young Alumni gathering on Monday you get the impression that he probably doesn't sweat much of anything. He knows his system works and that he's about to do something very special here at SMU. I came away from that event really impressed with how Coach handles himself. Also it was a great event and I "ponied up" with another donation to the Mustang Club.

So is Morstead being converted to tight end?

Where have you been?
We have a new coach. Bennett got fired.

Morstead threw during qb passing drills Saturday, though.

I heard Stallion will enroll this summer and walk-on as a punter. Couldn't find him in the Rivals database, though. Aren't punters usually two stars anyway?

Huh?
Ross Hill is a walk-on QB who's about 6-4 and was throwing all day, and like Morstead, wears No. 15.
Methinks you have the two mixed up.

Morstead is 6-4. Looks like a thin LB.

I read in some report/article that he was throwing passes in a drill, and that he joked he was the emergency fourth QB.

We'll see how that system works once he plays SMU's schedule...

Don't you have your own offensive system to worry about?

I read quote that also...maybe in the DMN.
