When I was in middle school, I am pretty sure my football team went to a SMU game every year thanks to the FCA. Since that was the Pony Express era, it was good times.

North Texas Football Coaches Association - not Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Even better

They should get FCA kids to the games anyway.

SMU had the FCA kids at a game about four years ago because I was one of the adults that went with them. They had a meeting at Moody followed by the football game. Our kids had a blast. I also remember the Methodist Church having a day in the more distant past.

So exactly what is the event that is being tweeted about? Is it a game, a conference, something else?

Its a convention of local high school coaches that conduct clinics with speeches on football topics, offensive/defensive formations/strategy/techniques, etc. Here's an excerpt from the famous DMN article exposing June Jones

For example, until 2012, the North Texas Football Coaches Association held coaching clinics at the areaâ€™s three FBS schools, with more than 300 coaches in attendance. Patterson and McCarney are regulars at the clinic, available and engaged as much as their schedules allow. (Pattersonâ€™s connections with high school coaches are even tighter, hiring popular Arlington Bowie coach Kenny Perry in March 2013 as his director of high school relations and recruiting; Perry was promoted to cornerbacks coach this spring.)

Jones, on the other hand, showed little interest in participating in the clinic, making a few brief appearances. Over the past two years, SMU declined requests to host the event, forcing organizers to move SMUâ€™s dates to Garland Lakeview

The former head coach who shall remain nameless blatant disregard to his head coaching duties and all other tangibles that are a must for recruiting, is just mind boggling.

How could Hawaii fans actually want to hire him?

A bit facetious, but how do we enlighten them as to exactly who June is? He isn't the tiki god they think he is.

I found a UH forum and a Former head coach who shall not be named thread. I also read where someone posted bullet points about FHCWSNBN. I don't think UH posters grasp the the importance of recruiting and recruiting Texas kids. A lot of people on that board have their blinders on.

Hawaiians are generally not rational. Still culturally primitives
