Now, if that bowl win leads to an undefeated streak next season and a playoff spot, then yeah—maybe, just maybe, I’ll consider forgiving the sins of the past.
A guy can dream, can’t he?
If you honestly think what happened to SMU was in any way fair treatment given what other programs were doing at the time (or what has happened in the subsequent 35 plus years since) then are you divorced from reality. SMU was made an example of and it did absolutely nothing to curtail paying players or offering inducements to high school recruits. Nothing. The NCAA has long since acknowledged had they known the fallout from SMU that the death penalty would've never been on the table.
It took all of one year playing in a power conference to see SMU's potential now that the administration, boosters, and athletic department are all in alignment.
It was the highest paid assistant position in all of G5. We're in DFW and its recruiting potential. We'll get looks. I haven't dug into who's available, though. I'm sure NIL budget would play into this, too, but I don't have any insight into that.
