IN THREE YEARS, SMU WILL BE THE BEST TEAM IN THE CONFERENCE

IN THREE YEARS, SMU WILL BE THE BEST TEAM IN THE CONFERENCE: What the heck – in for a penny, in for a pound. Jones resurrected a Hawaii program that was on life support, culminating in a Sugar Bowl appearance after last season. Yes, the Warriors got mugged, but so what – they were in a BCS bowl. You don't think a lot of old-time SMU fans weren't willing to empty their deep, deep pockets to get Jones in the chance he can restore Mustangs pride? It all goes back to recruiting: If SMU wins, the recruits will head to Dallas. Given the state of the defense in this league, SMU's offense is going to put up huge numbers. That means if SMU's defense can improve to middle of the pack in the league, the Mustangs will be just fine.

Pretty cool. Notice they have Willis as first team All C-USA. Hope he starts.

I need to check out the family history on the kicker from UAB. His first name is my last name and we founded the town he's from. Bet there's a connection.

I was shocked to see that this guy thinks our secondary has the potential to be top 4 or 5 in the league. If that holds true, we should be bowling.

Our secondary has never been the biggest issue - D line and epecially L-backers have been an issue of late.

Not bad. I think JJ's first full recruiting class will say alot. If he can recruit the guys he needs after going say 4-8 or 5-7 I will say this will be the program to beat in three years.
