Fulfilling their pledge to "leave no stone unturned" in their search for a new head football coach, Southern Methodist University officials today exhumed the body of late Notre Dame great George Gipp. Gipp's femur bone was removed from the remains and immediately declared SMU's new gridiron leader.
"This will, literally, give us a 'leg up' on the competition," Director of Athletics Steve Orisini said. "We believe the breaks have been beating our boys and they will surely go out there and win one for the Gipper".
Asked if the femur bone could actually make tough football decisions, like whether to go for it on 4-and-one at the opponents' 50, Orsini said, "Couldn't do any worse than we've been doing, and, yes, I believe Coach Bone has the marrow to make that kind of call."
Orsini added, "Hey. This make us unique. This puts SMU on the map. Anyone could have a Head Football Coach. But not everyone has a Dead one."
Reached for comment, the femur bone said nothing.
"Not to worry," averred Orisini, "He's a little dusty, but will do just fine."

Would take a corpse over 95% of the names mentioned by some of these f-ing losers on this site.

Believe me. There was no effort. And you're right. Orsini only has two eyes.
I put another "i" in the back of his head for obvious reasons.

I was hoping it was going to be the bones of Woody Hayes, not the Gipper.

Mangino, Weis and Friegen are still way ahead of him.

I thought I read in the Forde-yard-dash this week that the Dead Schembechlers broke up right after the 2006 Michigan-Ohio State and that several of their members aren't doing so well.
