I would say UCF has something to say about this. If they can keep Leary, we'll see in the near future.

Are you talking BCS bowl or BCS conference invite? BCS bowl requires a top ten finish at minimum. We are a few years from that.

I am just hoping to break top 25 in the near future.

Mail this to all recruiting targets. Also send them a link to the Pony Excess trailer.

TCU fans commenting on the bottom of that article need to be hung from thier toes. Read the comments- This is why you never ever cheer for TCU-they are chumps. We were winning that game in the second half against a bunch of seniors. Oh yea-It was our Super Bowl

Since June Jones has arrived at SMU, y'all are 0-4 against ranked teams.

Y'all sure this article isn't a bit premature?

Anyone else think this article is just hot air?

Shouldnt you be planning a trip to Storrs or Piscataway?

yall are smug now, which is great. Hooray for you. If you're a basketball fan as well, what happens when you have a home and home with Louisville, Georgetown, UConn, Notre Dame, Pitt etc..?

I like all the hate from the Frogs. That means they hear the footsteps.

We are coming for you - little froggy.

I like Alex Lifeson's take on the Tombstone quote.

Go back to Ft. Worth and tell them June's coming...and he's bringing hell with him!

You're not very good at being an undercover Frog.

Just try bringing some semblance of a football team and more than your customary 200 fans. :wink:

This is seemingly the only reasonable comment from all the hate spewed in the comments section:

Geez, why all the hate folks. SMU is not near the level of TCU and that is apparent. What is also apparent is that the program is starting to show a level of commitment that was never evident in the nearly 20 years before June's arrival. The program was abysmal and now it's slowly but surely starting to show signs of life. Does this mean the program will be a BCS buster next year? No, of course not but it means that SMU is starting to build a program and getting guys like a Davon Moreland means that it is making a genuine effort to be competitive. TCU has shown that it can be done. SMU isn't there yet but give it some time.
