You are right. Played QB at West Texas. Coached at A&M. QB coach in the NFL. At a BCS program program with a disenchanted fan base in Louisville.

I think he would be a great choice. Recruits Dallas like a madman and was headcoach at Tulsa in a situation extremely similar to that of SMU.

Hmm... Steve Kragthorpe. Would he leave after just a year at Louisville though?

And the writer said send shock waves thru C-USA, which I always wondered why he limited it to just C-USA......but Louisville was in CUSA. And Tulsa.....

Doesn't say he graduated from college in Texas, just that he went to college in Texas. Any of these names transfer before graduating?

We have a winner...He fits every piece to the speculation...Will the webmaster please pull this thread??? Don't want to loose out on our only chance to get a quality head coach...Seriously...Make this go away before the stupid people on this site start calling President Turner, Orsini, the Louisville papers and the DMN...

Proven winner and recruiter in our conference...

Shock Waves My @SS. If we pay any of those losers to come to SMU, you can consider SMU F-ING THREW, OVER, FINISHED. I am so mad right now. F - Orsini if this [deleted] is true. I hope all you Texas bastards get what's coming to you. SMU Football is finally over. BENNETT PART II !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't see how this would create a splash. Since it's common knowledge he's out, how could his name coming out possibly screw the pooch.

I think a coach at a big football school (or has been in the last few years)leaving after one year would be your splash...Not so much the name...

what did SMU throw?

I wouldn't be terribly upset with Kragthorpe, he did a pretty good job at Tulsa, he won at least one CUSA championship there.
