Per USA Today- SMU

Post by MV pony »

Is the second worst team in Texas. I'm so proud. Thank you Gerald. You are great when it comes to building but suck as an administrator. Time to steal Stanford's president. A school that strives for academic and athletic excellence.

As we've stated here 1000x,it's tough to fault the admin post-JJ hiring. Yes, we were late to the bus on easing academic requirements, but that excuse has been void for six years now. I will always fault RGT for not getting on board with big-time CFB back in the late 90s early 2000s when TCU started to get the ball rolling, though.

RGT sees the caliber of our recruits. RGT sees the recruiting effort of lack thereof. This is not rocket science. RGT also sees what the program is doing and where it is going. JJ is still here. It is time to fire them both.

Then he should have fired JJ for cause. Instead RGT has just turned a blind eye. RGT is part of the problem. They should both be fired!

RGT answers to people, and most of those he answers to are paying June's salary. This isn't an RGT problem, it's a problem that lies with some of our uber-rich, out of touch power brokers

While what you say is probably true, if not for our uber-rich, out of touch power brokers, we would still be in CUSA with UNT and Rice right now.
