Always interesting to see what people say when they are speaking to media they are comfortable with - baseball and track?! Would be nice.

Well who else has stated that he has actually signed?? Has there been an announcement from SMU?
Also, interesting stuff on the MWC. Guess that is a place we have been looking at.
Nice to have someone covering this.

All this proves is that JJ doesn't really understand what drives conference realignment.
The MWC wouldn't give a rat's tail about baseball and track if we could deliver the Dallas TV market. And if you don't understand by now why TCU doesn't appeal to the Big 12...
JJ is a great coach.

It would be interesting to see how SMU would respond to such a demand in order to gain MWC membership.

Jones is not a fan of Peruna and he obviously isn't a fan of the Mustang Band, either.
"By the way, we're going to have Henry (Kapono) and Willy K do the national anthem and halftime shows at some games this year."

HMM, i believe his main interest in bringing in baseball and track is because maybe during the offseason some of his players can keep in shape by playing baseball and running track, they did that in hawaii...

Hmm you'd think that JJ would grab someone from Texas to do those things,Instead of flying someone all the way from Hawai'i?? Gee'z guess he really need's Hawai'i in some way

I'm about as sick of hearing about Hawaii in football as I am Michael Jordan stories in hoops. Never realized how lucky I was to have two alumni as head coaches at my other school of interest.
