June Jones: In or out in year 5?
So how is June feeling about being at SMU for his 5th year? This should be interesting.
I think he has done a good job of getting this program turned around, yet he is probably not the "face of the franchise" guy to make this "The Dallas team" as some might have envisioned (or sell any tickets for that matter), get the community on board, or even recruit well locally.
Then he attempts to bolt for ASU, and rarely talks to the media during spring practice.
June has called this a rebuilding year (probably due to O line and QB situation), but Mason continues to build a strong D.
Intriguing stuff, especially with Larry Brown and his posse moving in next door and beginning their rebuild. Then there's the Pirate Captain out in the far reaches of the Pac 12 picking off SMU recruits for his own rebuild. I love college football!

SMU'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: June Jones: In or out in year 5?
I have a pretty good feeling about June's tenure based on his recent attitude (he seems genuinely happy) and the way he helped sell the school to Larry Brown.

Haven't heard much from June this spring. Thought he might have gotten a little burned out on the whole thing.
