Only 66 days ......until real coaches and staff occupy the SMU football offices!

Hopefully these guys will be gone from the premises the day following our last game?

I know you're trying to be cute, but Tom Mason is a good coach and a good guy.

If you've read my other posts around this board you'll know that I agree with you 100% about Tom Mason, we're lucky to have him. He is really the only guy holding this thing together at this point. There have been hints of the nonsense going on behind the scenes and I can assure you it's worse than advertised. December 6th cannot come soon enough.

I'm not being cute at all, I'm furious. You'd think this might be an opportunity for the team to 'circle the wagons' and come together, but guys like Phillips, Broussard, and Mel won't let that happen. It's basically June's cronies vs. Mason. Offensive guys, especially receivers and backs (coached by Phillips & Broussard) taking pot shots and their own defensive teammates. Brawls in practice as a result. I know I keep harping on these 3 but they should be led off the campus immediately.

June's legacy and lack of leadership coming full circle as the melt down continues. Really sad.

How was Mason selected to be interim HC?

I read somewhere recently that it was at JJ's request or suggestion that Mason be the interim HC. Don't remember if it was on PF.com or DMN.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

This is taking the focus away from the Knuckleheads.

No offense, but I don't think a 3points per game average gives our offense any room to talk. I haven't watched a game and felt good about a single position on that offense.

Or defense for that matter.

Punter will be good though. Tons is real game experience going into his second year. Won't be able to tell much about out kickoff coverage unit or KO specialist.

It'd be great if they got back together for a 2014 version of "Pony Up!"

Oh man, it'd be a perfect time. Hahaha

"Well June Jones was the man come to Dallas to make history,
It seems that throwing passes at the girls was more his style,
Why he lost his offensive mojo is a mystery,
But now he's sitting on the sand, counting cash, wearing a smile."

wish we could get the Knuckleheads back together for a pre-game or halftime gig at one of our bball games. I think the crowd would go wild.
