"Steinberg said Jones was still up at 11 p.m. Central, and the agent said he doesn’t know if his client will make a decision tonight or decide to sleep on it."

I noticed that too. Why isn't Kate getting the last call? I expect one more update Kate!

Let me guess he makes his announcement to take over at SMU in time to hit the wires and the air for the national championship broadcast.

It seems the state of Hawaii did the equivalent of coming back from a 21-point deficit in the fourth quarter to tie the game today
In typical SMU form.

If you're a June Jones and University of Hawaii football fan, you have to like this omen: The Warriors were 2-0 in overtime games this season, while Southern Methodist was 0-2.
What looked like a runaway win for SMU in a battle for Jones' coaching services turned into a dead heat last night as the ninth-year UH coach struggled in his decision to remain at Manoa or pack up for a permanent move to Dallas.
Jones was undecided late last night Hawaii time and early this morning in Texas, where Jones interviewed yesterday.
It seemed like a done deal that Jones would sign up with the Mustangs, until a last-ditch effort including e-mails from fans, phone calls from Gov. Linda Lingle and other state officials and an offer from UH addressing Jones' nonsalary concerns turned the tide.
Jones' agent, Leigh Steinberg, said he did not know what would happen, but "my personal take is to advise him to do what will make him happy."

Hard to believe that $10 million in 5 years wouldn't make somebody very happy!

Let's not forget the several different ways SMU came up with to lose games they should've won, as well. It's always great to be a Mustang fan.

The Hawaii media absolutely spun this to give the impression that this was a done deal that Jones was gone. All along, we knew the pitfalls coming with this situation.
That's called yellow journalism.
