I can't put the JJ hire on the top ten list yet.

If we had done this 6 years ago, the Bennett hire would be on the top ten list. JJ is a great hire and I hope and pray it proves worthy of the top 10 list, but time will tell.
Just send 'da money.

The hiring of Orsini might be on the list along with the retirement of Copeland. I haven't seen Stallion post yet, but the passing of President Pye would probably be real high on his list, although I'm sure he would have settled for President Pye's retirement.

I can't believe no one has suggested that Purple Hippo or Oscar rank high.

1.5 or 2 if JJ isn't there yet, is the hiring of Forrest Gregg (SMU All-
American, and Super Bowl coach) to dig us up out of the grave.

He gave us the miracle on Mockingbird win over Connecticut, and a win
over UNT when we weren't supposed to win a game in 3 years his first
year in 89.

Making JJ #2 is kinda like Cavan saying our win over KU in Ford's first
game was the biggest win in SMU history.

Blowing out UH is up there in the top 10, and the A$M tie is too.
