Grading the first-year coaches

Postby HB Pony Dad » Fri Feb 27, 2009 11:30 am

June Jones, SMU

Summary: "June Cometh." That was the theme when Jones took the job at SMU. His first season wasn't quite what was expected or promised especially after Jones was coming off an undefeated regular season with Hawaii. Jones is trying to do away with some of the "bad seeds" on his team in an effort to revamp the commitment to winning in Dallas.

Key win: The 47-36 win over FCS opponent Texas State was the Mustangs only win of the season so that would have to be the key win.

Key loss: Pick one. Although the Mustangs were one of the most dynamic teams in the country with their passing offense, the defense left something to be desired. SMU was outscored by about 17 points per game.

Defining moment: When June Jones announced that his quarterback two-deep would be filled with freshmen, he set the tone that 2008 was going to be a learning season. Just don't know that anyone thought the learning curve would be so steep.

Grade: F


TOP 25 in EVERYTHING!
