Missed the pitch, but I saw Orsini walking outside the ballpark on the 3rd base line around 6:50. Didn't get a chance to talk to him

Did he have a Shamrock lapel pin?

No lapel pin, but he was wearing a bright red SMU polo. My friend even commented on its brightness.

The plane is back in South Bend, after a long day that included a short stay in Miami (38 mins), a 3-hour stay at Dulles, and a 30-minute stay in Cheeseland.

Anyone care to explain this one to me?

The plane went to Atlanta yesterday and is on its way to Houston today.

Does anyone know if Orsini is in Dallas today or could he have silently slipped to Houston?

GO PONIES!!!

I talked to my source(s) this weekend. It isn't a 'done deal' yet, but pretty much kiss Orsini goodbye.

What can go wrong with SMU WILL go wrong.

My sources say the same thing. Orsini is the front runner now. Best thing to do is wish him luck

I disadmire your attitude. You need to try getting up on the other side of the bed. If Orsini leaves, I'm bettin' we'll get somebody better.
