Jones takes coaching job at SMU

Advertiser Staff

June Jones, University of Hawaii's winningest football coach, has reportedly accepted a position to be the next head coach at Southern Methodist University today.
Last night, signs pointed to momentum changing in UH's favor as the school made an all-out effort to keep Jones, whose contract expires June 30.

Steinberg said Jones arrived in Dallas yesterday morning with the intent of becoming SMU's next head football coach.

But Steinberg said Jones began to have second thoughts after receiving an outpouring of e-mails and cell-phone calls from Warrior supporters.

However, this morning sources said Jones accepted the job to become SMU's coach, replacing Phil Bennett, who was fired Oct. 28.

I hope it's true.

I'd like to have confirmation beyond someone saying that it has "reportedly" happened.

Keeping my fingers crossed.
