Shall we have a rally at Dallas Hall tonight?

he wont be there...that is 3pm tomorrow..

firephil go to the Scout board again-there is a thread entitiled "Whew No SMU"

He's gone. I swear poor SMU. We just can't catch a f'ing break. I'm literally sick.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yesterday after meeting with players and coaches, the word was 99% chance of leaving.

As of 2PM HST, SMU is still without a coach. I felt all along that SMU was not a good fit and despite the $$$, the idea was to put major pressure on the UH admin with about as serious leverage you could get. If it hasn't happened by now, it won't happen and the reports of a snag are all about the agreement from the UH to do something besides talk about improving facilities.
Place your bets folks!

Best case scenario: JJ now returns as a hero, and Frazier will find himself on a very hot seat for allowing the process to develop the way it did. The BOR gets the word from the Hinshaw that there has been a lack of good leadership from the AD across the board and it's time for a change. In addition, there were stories bandied about yesterday of HF treating 150 of his "friends" to the best that $$ could buy (the UH's $$ that is) in NO. Not exactly the right move for an athletic dept. supposedly unable to get the head coach a new carpet or chair for his office!

Was this a "Stallion" quote?

They are dead wrong, and are just whipping this up.

This is nothing but an internet shark frenzy. That's all.

when I said he wasn't a good fit I said it in good faith and based upon a reasonable analysis of what I see as the sticking points in SMU Model and the parameters I'm reasonably sure Jones would require at SMU. Some posters may think I just want SMU to fail. Couldn't be further from the truth.

FYI - postings on UH board appear to show that this rally is just a last second, fan sponsored event. Some fans received permission and are just spreading the word. Not indicative of what is going on right now.

You, sir, don't have a clue what you're talking about.

There's no reason to think that there is a deal with SMU unless it is leaked tonight that he's SMU's new HC. If by 10PM no leak then no Jones IMO.

Why not set the deadline at 9:00 so we can all go to bed early.
