Does anyone know if we are actually pursuing him again?

My guess is if we were it would be pretty under the radar, but thought I would ask.

It's laughable that you criticize June Jones yet defend Doherty ad nauseum. Most of JJ's recruits are in fact, high character kids. I don't have a problem with him taking a few chances if they've been vetted by the school. Everyone likes to point at Kenny Turner and Shawnbrey but we're talking less than a handful of kids. Give it a break.


I don't support Doherty, never really have. I just know what's good for the hoops head coaching position at SMU and it's rehabilitation. I As for Jones, I love what he's doing, as this class gets better and better, but I'm not going to write off on any thug he throws against a wall, sorry. He made a mistake w/Turner, and grabbing a kid up on charges, that was just chucked from A&M, makes no sense as an institution.
