June Jones has a agreed to a 5 year deal to become SMU's Head football coach. The deal is believed to be around $2 million a year. Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle lobbied for Jones to stay at Hawaii, but Jones couldn't be swayed on a return to the mainland.

Colt Brennan or Tim Tebow? June Jones may want to rethink his comments.










After last night's rout by Georgia, I'm wondering if June Jones would care to take back this statement "My quarterback has been labeled a 'system quarterback' for three years," Jones said. "He is the best passer in college history. He is. There is no question about it. Tim Tebow is in a system."

On the biggest stage in his college career, Colt Brennan turned in his worst performance of the year. Not surprisingly it came against the best team he's faced all year. If Tim Tebow is a "system quarterback" than Colt Brennan is a "conference quarterback." Think about it this way, could Tebow put up the same or better numbers as Brennan against competition such as Northern Colorado and Louisiana Tech? Sure he could, Tebow probably would have even better numbers than Brennan if he was going against the WAC. Now think about it this way, would Brennan put up Tebow numbers in the SEC? I dont think so. Last night Brennan proved my theory right. Big gaudy numbers at Hawaii does not make you a great quaterback. Just ask Timmy Chang how his NFL career is coming along. It's great for the record books, but going against Charleston Southern isn't going to get you ready for the NFL. Hopefully the next time June Jones wants to label somebody else's QB something he will think about last night's performance.
