Please forgive another post on this thread...but I couldn't resist. I couldn't remember how bad Georgia beat Hawaii so I googed it. Dug up this little gem:

My favorite excerpts:

"No matter what he ever did or no matter how much he won he wasn't going to have the right money or facilities," Brennan told Schad.

Jones said, however, that recruiting for SMU will be easier than at Hawaii, where distance made mainland parents reluctant to send their kids. He added that many Texas high schools now run spread offenses featuring the passing game, just like his run-and-shoot.

"It'll be fun to watch, and we'll attract the players to come play in our offense," he said. "I know there are a lot of players within 30 miles of this campus."

W supports SMU and wears school colors to bball games. Nope.

You are wrong. He doesn't wear school colors at games and he doesn't support SMU. After all, he was the president of both teams. Watch him, you'll see.

Of course, there’s also a potential plot twist that doesn’t involve Sanchez, but does involve a very powerful family in Sin City.

"June Jones is a dear friend of ours, and we’ve known him for many years when he was coaching at Hawaii," prominent UNLV booster Gavin Maloof told the Review-Journal Friday. "We think the world of him. We think he would do a great job for the program.

"He did a great job at Hawaii, taking them to the Sugar Bowl. He’s a great coach. He would be good for this program to turn this thing around."

According to Kevin Anderson of the Review-Journal, Jones, the former SMU coach who abruptly gave up that job in September, will do a phone interview for the UNLV job Monday.

If you’re in Vegas, grab your popcorn. This could get mildly interesting.

I don't understand how June tricks these key people into his cult. The guy is not charismatic. He should write a sales book

I love how they wouldn't even fly in or fly out from Hawaii to interview him. A phone interview is a Houston Nutt insult

If the UNLV AD and Maloofs are that blind to the damage, the coach who shall remain nameless, did to SMU they deserve each other
