"In his second collegiate head coaching rebuilding project June Jones has masterfully righted the ship at SMU which is no small task.

Jones is 24-28 in four seasons at SMU which includes a 1-11 mark in his first year in 2008 which he followed with three consecutive winning seasons, two C-USA West divisional crowns and a 3-1 bowl record.

Yes, June Jones has done an excellent job at SMU but still his total pay per season of $1,727,082 is tops in Conference USA and more than Art Briles (Baylor), Chris Petersen (Boise State) and Dana Holgorsen (West Virginia) make.

Private institutions such as SMU have oodles of money but that doesn’t mean they can’t overpay for excellent service.

It’s kind of like a rich dude paying twice as much as the list price for a pair of factory authorized windshield wipers for his Mercedes."

Given the previous generation of futility and the phenomenally quick turnaround, he has earned what we (meaning Circle of Champions) are paying him. Ultimately, it is the Circle of Champions decision whether he has delivered on their investment or not.

Good articel and they are probably right at this point. We will have to see what June does on the BE.

Wow, 3 straight bowls yet a 3-1 record. We must have really beat someone so bad it counted for two.
