SMU Head Coach Candidates

[CBpony]

So it was Tuesday now Sunday?

[Rla1022]

Obviously it will be Sunday. CanΓÇÖt win on Saturday with the players not ready to play with a coach thatΓÇÖs abandoned them.

Airborne - it was never on Tuesday - false news

[Mustangs_Maroons]

Throwing a wild card out there - Jason Garrett.

[Bergermeister]

He'd do well at an Ivy League school.

If we want a Cowboy coach let's get a current one; Dan Quinn the Pokes DC.

[SMU_Alum11]

Deion Sanders with Samples retained with a lucrative contract

**** no

hmm... YES.. would love to have Sanders. Guy is a winner. He would win at SMU. No doubt.

If you want SMU to be relegated to mediocrity and forever the laughing stock of football then yes we should hire Deion.

But the post game press conferences would be must see TV.

[HubbaHubba]

Please, please, please hire someone who can coach, or at least hire as assistant who can coach, defensive backs!

Jason Garrett

Lashlee has clearly proven himself as an OC who seems to be ready to move up. A higher tier G5 school is maybe slightly ambitious but not ridiculous. I couldn't find any dirt on him so that's a plus. If he is Dykes-level successful he will stay for four years and move on. If not he will stay for four years and get fired.

Are there any candidates with real SMU ties?

Lashlee is a self-professed Christian and I only state that to say he has high morals so hopefully there is no ΓÇÿdirt on himΓÇÖ. While not necessarily completely correlated, I believe is a good guy in general.

What does being a "christian" have to do with the price of tea in China or coaching football?

Evidently you believe there is a correlation between a christian and off field behavior.

Hugh Frieze anyone? hmm...

A moral compass for one. Just look around our society in general and you will find a shortage. I could go on and on but I will refrain.

But as I stated in the post they are ΓÇ£not necessarily completely correlatedΓÇ¥. This means that you have a lot of people who state they are Christian but it is just words out of their mouth and it doesnΓÇÖt mean anything so I get what you are saying.

As far as coaching, it goes a long way in that I highly doubt RH would berate or curse out a player. Or drop f-bombs every other word like the coachΓÇÖs on the old show - last chance u. And maybe just maybe he wouldnΓÇÖt talk out of both side of his mouth and be shady as it relates to a change in situation.

Amen!!

Someone say airborne? In all seriousness I didn't like that the target left for Miami but I also understand there is a business aspect to college sports now. Just want the right fit and hopefully some longevity. Sucks that we continue to be a stepping stone to greener pastures.

Would be nice to find a coach that would stick around to actually see a rebuild come to fruition aka get a big conference invite. I just donΓÇÖt know if that coach is out there or exist. Finding a coach at SMU is pretty much a catch 22. We want to hire a successful coach that will stay but if s coach gets successful here they bounce the moment a P5 school comes calling.
