June has better admin support here than Coker has at UTSA. Coker and his staff make peanuts and they play over 15 miles from campus. Their facilities even lag behind most of their C-USA brethren.

UH looked horrible last night. Their OL is a mess and O'Korn was making some terrible reads. What an embarrassing way to open up their new stadium...and I thought they'd compete for the AAC title this year

Very impressed by UTSA- I knew Larry Coker would make them competitive. I'll be interested to see how well they do this year

Been saying for a couple years that I wished we would have poached Coker from UTSA.

Coker is all about solutions, June is all about excuses

When Bennett got fired, did we even consider Coker. I remember his name being thrown around on the board, not being considered by Orsini.

It's all good news for SMU. The AAC is wide open...our "crappy" team ranked 5 in the conference, if we show life vs BU and beat UNT bad I think we have a shot at going 6-2 or 7-1 in AAC play. UH game is a W

just a quick search on Rivals appears to be all 2* for 2013/2014, however I am not sure about transfers. I heard one announcer say a USC transfer I think.


It's all 2 stars and a sprinkle of 3 stars for UTSA...SMU talent is much much better....just that UTSA seems to be better coached and motivated.

And no, they could not beat Aggy...maybe Baylor.


Man you really do have an inferiority complex with Baylor. More evidence of your frog influence. You're like aggy is to UT.

Baylor is a nobody like it has always been. We start winning big like back in the day and you become an afterthought. Pony Express son. You haven't won anything.

Being in a crappy conference is not good news for SMU. It is good news for June Jones because he can get wins with very little recruiting effort and coaching effort. Just a mediocre team can go to a bowl game while people like you proclaim greatness. Are you that pathetic?

Haven't won anything? Right....

What do they call the planet you live on? It sounds like an ingesting, although backwards, place.

What have you won? Big 12 in a weak and almost G6 conference?

Yeah I know. It's amazing the inferiority complex those guys have for us. The best example is their coach's rant after we beat them last year. He's just as nuts as B12.
