2003-2004 BBall PreviewSMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.
Re: 2003-2004 BBall PreviewOK scroll down to the bottom where Dement talks about the WAC race-note how Dement mentions how much our opponents have improved due to the recruitment of junior college players. Even when he doesn't specifically use the words "junior college" that's what he means. The Hawaii kid he mentioned is also a junior college player. The "great" UTEP class is headed by 6 JC/CC players and the excellent Tulsa team is bringing in 2 JUCO big men to shore up that problem. If you read between the lines sounds like a man who is green with envy every year with all his opponents lining up outstanding JC players for immediate help. Noticed the TV announcers last nite also mentioned that Bennett's started the PR stance that SMU ridiculously restrictive academic standards made it impossible for SMU to compete until 2 years ago. These are two coaches on the proverbial hot seat aren't they-although we know that they are philosophically opposed to lowering any more standards.

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.
Re: 2003-2004 BBall PreviewStallion, yeah we all know about the JUCO problem. Now what what the hell is anyone gonna ACTUALLY do about it?
