Unofficial SMU-TCU thread

Do we even have a TE or a Utilty Back formation this year?-that's why I couldn't believe the Gaines kid committed to us. If we had that formation yesterday would have been a good time to use it

Fire June

You can't fire a Coach over a rivalry game loss, that's why they call them rivalries.. June rubbed Patterson's nose in it last year, he graduated a number of players and a team can only rebuild and add slowly to the talent pool. Unfortunately, in a Capitalistic society competition rules the day and SMU is not going to get Mac Brown, Skip Holtz, or even Gary Patterson for that matter, because if Patterson ever left TCU he would have his pick of programs! If, SMU fired another Head Coach so quickly potential recruits would just write SMU OFF as a possible.. So be careful what you wish for you just might get it.

Sure, we can fire him for a rivalry loss! JJ's problem is that he DOESN'T recruit and we have nothing to rebuild with....at the 5th year w/him as HC we shouldn't be in this position. Kids who have given verbals to us, imo, will decide to go elsewhere after the embarrassing start we have. I would hope that the powers that be would replace JJ with someone who kids would want to play for.........and that would not be Phillips b/c I don't think he's done anything!!
