The numerous June lackeys on the board.

JonesDoe and Plano Stang seem to be the most extreme ones, there a bunch of other ones that will pop up here over the course of the week if you want to see their handiwork for yourself (hint anyone that thinks he should be here past the season).

Do I count? I *think* he needs to be gone but reserve my final judgement until the end of the season.

I was referring more to the "Everything is great and June should be here as long as he wants because we can't do any better" crowd. I believe you've posted before about being upset with the state of our recruiting.

We're in about year 20 of "man, i hope we can pull out a W in Houston". This isn't just a JJ issue. But I did figure he would have figured this one out by now. As we have learned, there are no "sure things" on the schedule with this team.

But I still predict a 13 point W for us.

STATS THAT ARE HARD TO BELIEVE:
SMU -Total Offense-No. 86 in country (377 yards)
Rice-Total Offense-No. 49 in country(417 yards)
Has a June Jones Offense ever finished No. 86 in Total Offense? Wow.

We're winning, by and large, so I'm not really complaining. But also strange has been the emphasis on running since he's been here. Either one or zero 1000 yard rushers in his coaching career before he got here. Now four or five in a row between Shawnbrey and Zach. Not really sure we actually do do what we do.

His first offense here finished 98th in Total Offense.
