I was wondering if they would move Malone to DB coach.

I know he has more pressing issues with his daughter at the moment, but hoping Coach Stigall sticks as well. He has been here for part of Bennett, all of June, and all of Chad.

Ex-Mustang players are trying to rile up twitter with the #BringCoachMasonBack. I wonder how PonyFans feel about this suggestion. HeΓÇÖs probably better than Van...

Wait.

I don't remember the defense being a whole lot better than the offense when JJ left. Wasn't Mason just as culpable for that burning bag of dog blocked I saw on the field four years ago?

Rich Crawford: These are the stats of the Defenses - #27, #40, #62, #70 and that was playing Baylor, Tech, TCU & A&M every year. Multiple NFL players. He also taught of all of us how to be successful men. #BringCoachMasonBack... @SMU_Football and @ad_rickhart

Our vote doesnΓÇÖt count, but IMHO Coach Mason was grossly undervalued when he was here, he actually recruited, and was a quality person to boot. A gem inside a burning house. Would be great to have him back in a healthy, non-toxic environment.

Okay. Not to troll, but first of all I see a solid downward pattern there. And second, there is NO way those seasons include the final season when he was HC/DC and there were only two games our opponents scored less than 40 points on us: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_SMU_ ... tball_team

I'm sure he's a nice guy, but whatever momentum he had going those first couple of years evaporated quick. We need to look in another direction.
