A few thoughts from a Frog student...

[TCU Horned Frogs]

I was very impressed with SMU from what I saw last night, but the big picture is what I really think things look bright for yall. What I think is so encouraging for the Mustangs is that June Jones is truly building a program. In three years, Coach Jones has shown steady, consistent improvement. How often do you hear of teams that are one-hit wonders, but cannot sustain the success? Coach Jones, in addition to being what looks like a great CEO of the program, looked last night to have and X's and O's advantage over TCU. He uses great schemes for his players, and I think he will only continue to recruit better and better players. And I doubt it will be too long before he will succeed with the hardest job of all: changing the mentality of the players, coaches and fans to believe they can play with anybody... and win!

SMU hung for 2 1/2 quarters and played great ball. Depth might have been a big reason TCU was able to run away with it, but that will change with recruiting. There are only a handful of teams in the last few years to give us a good game to watch, and it was fun to see a back and forth game. I think we've got some great ball games ahead of us in the rivalry. I wouldn't be surprised if the battle for the skillet next year involves two ranked teams for the first time!

Go Frogs!

Thanks. The rivalry is starting to be fun again. Be warned...we will not settle for "close."
