IF SMU goes 6-6, SMU fans should be happy (not satisfied) with how far SMU has come from: The Death Penalty, constant coaching turnovers, and the 0 win season.

thanks i know i was on the team... my point was that PB is turning the program around with "HIS GUYS." People are complaining about a possible 6 win season, when we're only 2 seasons removed from a 0 win season. So the logic is that if Texas goes 11-1 this year that's a step back and they should fire Mack Brown, regaurdless if they're starting a fresh. at QB and have some major holes to fill on defense...

SMU's fans and admin need to realize that you can't turn around a program over night.
