SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press Conference"With a quarter of a tank of gas, we can get everything we need right here in DFW." -SMU Head Coach Chad Morris
When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press Conference"...instead of apologizing for SMU, I think we need to go out in a bold [manner]...." That's the key.
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press ConferenceHow did SMU end up choosing Myers and how was his hiring perceived by the alums/fans/media? Hiring a guy from UNLV (barely above an FCS program in those days) must have created a few waves.
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press ConferenceI wonder if I can buy that jacket at Culwell & Son?
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press Conference
Ron worked for the Dallas Cowboys prior to his UNLV gig and got and extremely high endorsement from them for the SMU job. If memory serves me correctly, I think Tex Schramm even saw Ron as a potential later replacement for Tom Landry, he thought that highly of him. I know they were pleased that he was back in Dallas.
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press ConferenceHa, just looked at the video. Looks more like a Cowboy jacket than an SMU one, plus it looks like he’s wearing his Super Bowl ring.
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press Conference
Too funny. Charlie Burgin probably sold him that jacket.
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press Conference
That would have been enough to do it!
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press ConferenceThanks for posting this. I was in New Orleans at the time and anxious as learn the identity of our coach. I called then acting Athletic Director, [deleted] Davis, and Ron answered the telephone. We had a long conversation and open doors for his frequent recruiting trips to New Orleans. He craved the oysters!
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press ConferenceCan't use the name of the person, wow! How about Richard.
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press ConferenceI loved that guy! You could place a call to him and if he was busy you get a return call from him 5 minutes later! Always upbeat and accessible.
Long live Inez Perez!
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press Conference
You get that same attention today (Thoroughbred Level and Above)
Re: SMU Film: Ron Meyer's Introductory Press ConferenceThanks for the compliment!
Long live Inez Perez!
