Many alumns still feel alienated and unwelcome. But, this is finally changing, one alumn at a time thanks to Steve and his coaches.
Embarrassed maybe, but alienated? Unwelcome? I know that CJ and ED were both invited to campus a number of times by the previous AD and his staff, usually choosing to show up only when an appearance fee was included. I don't see Lance McIlhenney complaining about not being "invited" or being "unwelcome," since he tailgates on the Boulevard before every game and buys his season tickets like the rest of us who didn't receive a full ride to SMU and a platform to show off for the NFL scouts.
I understand that James has other responsibilities on game day, and don't expect either of them to be at every game, but James (and Dickerson, when he had the opportunity) took it upon himself to take gratuitous pot shots at his alma mater in front of a national audience. Nothing like kicking someone when they're down.
