Was there ever a time when Phillips came close to the head coaching job at SMU?

Posted: Sat Oct 19, 2013 6:39 pmA terrific man and a great coach. If you were a coach in Texas in the 1960s attending the THSCA school, your trip was not complete until you heard Bum Phillips' lecture/demonstration. Hell of man and a hell of a Texan.
RIP.
RIP.
