Also hearing Todd Graham is very likely the possible replacement at SMU

Wow.   Wonder how the Arkansas boosters/fans are going to react here.   Hope the pigs are ready for some more mediocrity, but if he has a NFL caliber WR, he's going to smash us next season...     ...probably why they hired him.

 

Graham is a great replacement for him at SMU.  They needed a little more sleaze down there.

Morris can recruit Texas!

Looks like he is targeting Brent Venables as his DC.  

 

Why in the world would you leave Clemson (probable back-to-back national champ after this year) to go to Arkansas where you have to face the SEC?

Crap!   I think Todd Graham would be an improvement for them.  I'm hoping Todd Graham goes somewhere else.

Poll on PonyFans regarding who they want as their next head coach.  Kevin Sumlin is the front runner.

Someone should inform Sumlin.  I am sure he would enjoy a good laugh.

Sumlin was waiting for the Oregon opening now Mario may get a crack at it! Always wonder what happened to the FIU stud!

Graham can recruit.   I can’t stand him but I have to admit -the guy can bring in talent.  That would be an improvement in my mind for SMU.

Yuck, does not sound like good news for us then.

Todd Graham to SMU makes perfect sense to me.  

Chad Morris to anywhere upward doesn't.  He's really not done anything at SMU that I find remarkable. 

As for SMU, they seem to fancy themselves a destination coaching position.  Soooo...yeah....no.

Morris was definitely ok at SMU. The team improved every season, but neveer to an eye popping amount. Not sure he would have ever gotten them to greatness though, so I think SMUs loss is bearable for them. I mean his record is 14-22, and he will leave before ever coaching a bowl game there.

Now if they can get Graham, that is scary... unless he turns in a June Jones performance and starts mailing it in as he sees that he will likely not travel upwards anymore. But I am not so sure Graham really wants to jump back in immediately. If they can't get Graham it might get more difficult and interesting. Maybe the Troy coach? If they make that happen,I'd like them to do it before the bowl ;)

I am almost certain Sumlin will take a year off. If he'd really wanted a job, he'd have it already. He has the money and will be in a chip Kelly situation where he can pick his spot before all the other coaches can. Doubt he wants to go west coast, and why wouldn't Oregon turn to Christobal? Feels like the perfect fit to me: HC experience (which arguably was the best HC FIU ever had), learnt from Saban, had some other stints as OC. 

I^d be laughing sooo hard if SMU ended up hiring Frank Wilson.
