Any [deleted] that wasn't bashing the SMU Athletic program from 1989-2006 was a much bigger problem

Gone blank on the name but to me he looks like the guy that was in Bosom Buddies with Tom Hanks, and was also in one of the Newhart sitcoms, and others.

I'm sorry but some of the finest smu fans I know are from Louisiana. They graduated from smu but they have a powerful connection to their hometown and lsu. I don't begrudge them this. Believe it or not, there aren't exactly an enormous number of people who came out of the crib cheering for smu. Slightly different situation in sec country.

NOt only at SMU with him, but went to high school with him. Those lost generations of fans aren't limited to the kids in school during the missing generation of SMU football. He adapted LSU because he grew up with mainly LSU. Much like many on this board that are big TU supporters as well as SMU supporters.

The guy wasn't proud of his school's pathetic football team and found one he could be proud of. Geez, the guy is moving in high octane business world with his contemporaries all supporting big time winners. Why make yourself look feeble with support of a weaK arse, not dedicated to winning team?

The customer isn't the problem regardless of his matriculation relationship. It is the product!

So apparently the most prominent ASU Booster involved in flying to visit June Jones yesterday was SMU alumnus Gregg Tryhaus. I think there is room on this list for another
