Another thread? Plenty of others on same topic. At least I spam existing ones

Done deal. June requested ASU keep it quiet until after the ARB game.

Mitch is happy. Of course he has no idea who can replace him.

He isnt going to ASU

I couldn't have said this any better from their discussion:

"...Bleck, June Jones would be a terrible hire. His gimmicky offenses work well at the Mid Major level where he can beat mid level athletes with that silliness, but Im skeptical of it working on the highest level in the Pac 12. Further, I just don't enjoy watching his offense, and I don't want to see the Devils never running the ball.

Plus he's too old, I'd rather ASU go with a young guy with a wonky pass heavy offense (Sumlin) than an old one (Jones).

Sounds like the apologists are conceding that Jones is really leaving...

What causes you to have so much anger and negativity in your life?

Seems unlikely JJ would leave b/c I can't imagine another school giving him the money and control he has here.

Really, I'm not angry and negative EXCEPT when it comes to people who don't have SMU's best interests at the core of what they do. I don't June has ever really put SMU at the forefront of his mission here -- whatever that is. I know others strongly disagree with me and that's fine.

I can tell you that while Matt Doherty's stay has been a failure, I actually believed he wanted to be here for the right reasons.

Call it just a getting a vibe on people.
