[Charleston Pony]

We do what we do.

and it makes us all so proud at times

pending this team's 2nd half performance...how many more days until basketball season opens?

[ready4abowl]

Their QB is faster back peddalling than our linebackers and safeties are at full speed forward...

Anybody remember the last time we overcame a 31 point deficit?

He just said that if Memphis scores TD it will take the wind out of this SMU's crowd'so
Sails.... WTF is he talking about?

I wondered what crowd he was referring to!

He was looking out on the VArd.

I was actually picking on the "wind in our sails" part of his comment... I have not much a problem with our crowd per se..

Thankfully, I do believe this cioaching staff and team is more resilient and committed than our fans[/quote]

CP- while I can understand you comments, I have been a die-hard fan for over 70 yrs and with little exception I have been left with great disappointment at the end of each season. I have looked forward to the start of the season each year with great hopes only to get kicked in the balls by a team that has typically underperformed. Finally one starts to lose hope and confidence that things will ever change.

Who is the first coach on the staff to get fired?

Believe me...I appreciate the frustration of our most die hard fans and have always thought they have to be among the most loyal in the country. Unfortunately, that is where "The 1500" phrase came from...we just don't have enough die hards. I get that we are a small school with a limited number of local living alumni and it kills us to not have large numbers of t-shirt fans like the big public schools have. The 1500 will always be there and will never quit believing. If I still lived in Dallas, I would be among them!

cp- on a totally different topic- are you familiar with a clothing store in Charleston by the name of Ben Silver? I used to buy a lot of ties and clothes from them. In fact they used to have some really nice SMU cuff links.

This is pathetic. I'm out. Later.

Morris/Malone nailed the 2nd half adjustments

[redpony]

can't help but wonder if blowout losses like this will cost us some recruits.
