1) First, my apologies for the occasional wobble. I left the piece that attaches the video camera to the tripod attached to the still camera at my office.
2) The new, "fast" internet access that was supposed to be installed by Time Warner to my office over the weekend really isn't really so fast. Hours wasted and now I'm re-uploading from home.
3) This should be live by about 7:15. Enjoy!

Great video. SMU did the presentation very well and Coach Morris is a breath of fresh air compared with JJ's arrogance. Dr Turner seemed a bit pained to hear the Internet media vs. the DMN. When the Internet media overwhelms the questions, it shows where people are getting their news.

Thanks for posting, wish I could have been there. Excited for the next few months as Coach Morris pulls his staff together and starts recruiting. Go 'Stangs!

In the past, some PonyFans have accused us of being shills for June Jones. The truth is, and you can see it in just about every video interview we ever shot, Coach Jones treated the media as a necessary evil. He liked Thad and he liked Katie from theDMN, but the rest of us... well, not so much.

The audience wasn't mic'd, so not sure how much it came across on the video, but it was pretty gratifying that PonyPride got a bit of a minor ovation from the crowd -- and a smile from Dr. Turner -- when he said he was from PonyFans. Nobody works more for less to promote SMU athletics than PonyPride, so it was pretty cool of all you guys that were there. It's much appreciated!!

It was funny when he identified himself - lots of reaction and smiles from the crowd. Lots of Ponyfans were there there.

Definitely.

And thanks for posting the video for those of us who could not be there!

Is it just me or is there absolutely no mention of this anywhere on ESPN. I find that very interesting. I keep checking the website and nothing.
