If he is using the SMU locker room to film scenes for this movie, and those scenes portray discrimination or something negative about SMU- perhaps we have cause for termination??

I wonder if they were real incidents.
I believe that's portraying an incident at Hawaii, they're just filming the prelim stuff in the SMU locker room. I would imagine SMU has already signed off on all of this

Yes. Threads that turn into insult wars get deleted. Sometimes individual posts, sometimes, threads, sometimes posters. Stop attacking/insulting each other.
I'm still not sure why you guys are letting FTHP, who is an obvious, and I mean OBVIOUS troll who flips his position every other thread, derail your boards.
After watching the clip filmed in the locker room,all I can think is Holy Shi! Why in the world would SMU sign off even if it happened somewhere else? It is out there for everyone to draw conclusions about the scene with no disclaimer. From some opinions, I thought CoC wanted SMU out of messy spotlights. JJ and the movie clip really advances that goal!

Read the scene descriptions. These are test shots that they bring to studios and potential investors. I doubt much of this film concerns anything about SMU. Like I said, pick up Warrior Football at the library and delve into the mystique he built uo on the islands. That book alone blinded me for an extra year after until even after the ASU fiasco. It's a good sell job he did there, and likely very heartfelt.
More Hawaii from June. He really aught to go back cause that is who he is and where he identifies. He knows it, and so do we. This just makes it painfully obvious where his heart lies. It is not a problem unless he collects a paycheck from us for one more year.
It also plainly shows the good and bad of his personality. The good qualities improved the program to where we are today and the bad (some of which are really the same) keeps us from getting any better and why he doesn't care to connect with SMU and most of our fans.

It is beyond embarrassing. A movie about an average coach that got hawaii embarrassed in their only relevant moment, got smu into 4 bad bowls, had a car wreck and does a good job of self promoting while acting like he isn't, even though everyone....and I mean EVERYONE can see through it. Love the comments along the way by steinberg, apparent cause of the train wreck for June and cause of his own issues as well.
I thought this was a really well done parody of some loser trying to raise money for a joke of a movie, and then realized it is true.
