JUNE JONES HEAD COACH FIFTH SEASON NEW YORK STATE REGENTS COLLEGE After four seasons at the helm of the SMU football program, June Jones has proven again that he is a master architect in building and rebuilding football programs. In 2008, Jones took over an SMU program that had not been to a bowl game in nearly a quarter century. Despite its rich tradition, SMU had struggled since the early 1980s and the days of the "Pony Express." Jones and the Mustangs changed all that in 2009, however, snapping a 25year bowl drought, claiming a Sheraton Hawaii Bowl Championship, and earning a share of the Conference USA Western Division Championship. SMU finished the season with an 8-5 mark, the largest turnaround in the nation in 2009 (+7 wins). A winner of three National Coach of the Year Awards in his career, Jones was named Conference USA Coach of the Year by The Sporting News in 2009, marking the fourth Conference Coach of the Year Award for Jones in his 11 seasons as a head coach, and, following SMU's 45-10 destruction of Nevada in the Hawaii Bowl, was also named Coach of the Bowl Season by College Football News. The 2010 season featured another first, as SMU made its first appearance in the Conference USA Championship game, earning its second straight C-USA Western Division title. SMU also earned a bowl bid for the second straight season, reaching the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl. The 2011 season produced another eight wins and a BBVA Compass Bowl Championship as SMU thrashed Pitt, 28-6. Along the way, SMU beat rival TCU, giving the Mustangs and Jones the coveted Iron Skillet. Recruiting has also been a huge success for SMU under Jones. The 2011 incoming class had 21 three-star and above Rivals.com recruits, nearly a 30% bump from the 2010 class, which had 16 such signees, a figure which itself surpassed the number of such recruits in the 2007 (4), 2008 (4) and 2009 (7) classes combined. Further reinforcing this point, Scout.com ranked SMU's recruiting class as No. 1 among all non-BCS AQ schools. SMU's 2012 class of 20 student-athletes featured two PARADE All-Americans and state Players of the Year as Jones continued to raise SMU's talent level. Jones came to the Hilltop after nine years at Hawaii, where he took a downtrodden Warrior football program and built it into one of the most exciting and competitive squads in the country. Jones led his Hawaii teams to 76 wins - the most by any Hawaii coach - two Western Athletic Conference Championships and six bowl-game appearances. In 1998, Hawaii suffered its first-ever winless season. The following year, the first under Jones, the Warriors went 9-4, marking the biggest turnaround in NCAA history. He developed six All-Americans and produced 17 NFL draft picks, with a school-record five in 2007. In the five years before Jones' arrival, Hawaii combined for 12 wins and not a single draft pick or bowl game berth. Jones catapulted the Warrior program into the national rankings in his nine seasons, with Hawaii ranking in the top 40 in seven of his nine years, including a top-10 ranking in 2007. For his efforts, Jones was ranked as the top non-BCS coach in the nation by The Sporting News in the spring of 2008. The 2007 season proved to be the pinnacle of success for Jones at Hawaii, as he led his team to the national spotlight with a top-10 national ranking, a BCS Bowl berth and the school's first Heisman Trophy finalist. Hawaii finished the 2007 regular-season undefeated at 12-0 and was the only team in the Football Bowl Subdivision to earn that distinction. Along the way, the team shattered dozens of NCAA, conference and school records as Jones became just the third coach to lead a team to a BCS Bowl from a conference without an automatic BCS berth. For his efforts, Jones was named the 2007 WAC Coach of the Year and was one of seven finalists for the 2007 Paul "Bear" Bryant College Coach of the Year Award.
Jones is the mastermind of one of the nation's most prolific offenses and was one of just 14 head coaches in the nation to also serve as offensive coordinator in 2007. Jones' run-and-shoot attack led the Western Athletic Conference and ranked in the top five nationally in each of his nine seasons at Hawaii. In 2006, the Warriors averaged 46.9 points and 559.2 yards of total offense per game, with 441.29 yards generated through the air, leading the nation in all three categories. Hawaii was potent in 2007 as well, leading the nation in scoring at 46.2 points per game. Under Jones, the Warriors broke more than 400 school records and 50 NCAA records. Jones-tutored quarterbacks have secured their place among the all-time greats in collegiate football, with Timmy Chang and Colt Brennan holding several NCAA records. In 2004, Chang made NCAA history by becoming the all-time passing leader with 17,072 yards, and in 2007, Colt Brennan, who finished third in the Heisman Trophy race, broke 29 NCAA records, including passing touchdowns in a season (58) and career (131). Jones was named the 1999 National Coach of the Year (CNN/Sports Illustrated, American Football Coach/Schutt Sports & The Sporting News) after leading the Warriors to a share of the WAC Championship and a 23-17 win over Oregon State in the Jeep O'ahu Bowl. It was the program's first bowl game since 1992. The 1999 season also marked the first of three Conference Coach of the Year awards for Jones (1999, 2006, 2007). On the heels of an injury-plagued 3-9 season in 2000, Jones was involved in a car accident that nearly claimed his life on Feb. 22, 2001. The accident kept Jones out of the entire spring session, but his tireless effort to recover allowed him to return to the field in time for fall camp. In 2001, receiver Chad Owens led the nation in kickoff return average (33.6 yards) and Chang led the nation in total offense (349.7 yards) before bowing out to a wrist injury as Hawaii went 9-3. The 2002 campaign saw Hawaii post a 10-win season and claim a victory in the ConAgra Foods Hawaii Bowl. The 2003 season marked the first with a roster comprised of all Jones' recruits, and Jones led the team to a successful 9-5 campaign as the Warriors won the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl with a 54-48 triple-overtime victory over Houston. That gave Jones his second bowl win and third bowl appearance at Hawaii, both the most of any coach in the 96 years of the program. The 2004 season marked one of the best finishes in Hawaii football history. The Warriors won their last three games to earn an invitation to a bowl game and Jones and crew capped the comeback season with a convincing 59-40 win over UAB in the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl. While the 5-7 2005 season was plagued with injuries, the 2006 campaign brought about renewed enthusiasm. In 2006, the Warriors posted an 11-3 mark and finished second in the WAC with a 7-1 league record. The only blemish in conference was a loss to eventual WAC Champion and BCS bowl team Boise State. During the season, Brennan caught the nation's attention as the junior tossed an NCAA-record 58 touchdowns while the squad went on to win the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl a fourth time.

JUNE JONES' PLAYERS IN THE NFL
Jones has also led players to success in the classroom, as his Hawaii teams produced 27 Academic All-WAC honorees in his first eight years at the Hawaii helm. Before joining the Warriors in 1999, Jones enjoyed a 12-year coaching career in the NFL, including head coaching stops at Atlanta (1994-96) and San Diego (1998). With the Falcons, Jones guided the team that he once played for to a playoff wildcard berth in 1995. Originally from Portland, Ore., Jones graduated from New York State Regents College after playing quarterback at Oregon (1971-1972), Hawaii (1973-1974), and Portland State (1975-1976) and went on to play professionally for the Atlanta Falcons (1977-1981) of the NFL and the Toronto Argonauts (1982) of the Canadian Football League.
WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT JUNE JONES “June has great communication skills. He is so good at dealing with different people and personalities. He was the best coach I had in 15 years of professional football. Until I played for June, I never had a full understanding of the quarterback position or paid attention to detail. He taught me everything…” - Bobby Hebert, NFL/USFL Quarterback, 1993 Pro Bowl, USFL Champion “Before Coach Jones, nobody had ever spoken to me in such a straight-up manner. In the past, I had just worked people to get my way. June just spoke the truth. It was simple, but it was exactly what I needed to be told.” - Pisa Tinoisamoa, NFL Linebacker “June Jones is a special guy. He relies on Xs and Os, but it’s his strong relationship with his players and coaches, as well as his deep faith, that make it all work.” - Bobby Beathard, Former NFL General Manager, Seven Super Bowl Teams, Four Super Bowl Champions “Coach Jones is my mentor. The success I have experienced is because of him.” - Colt Brennan, NFL Quarterback and NCAA Record-Holder “June Jones is a heck of a coach. He gets you prepared and he’s patient and thorough. He’s also a great guy and good friend.” - Brett Favre, NFL Quarterback, Three-Time MVP, Super Bowl XXXI Champion “June is the guy who’s most responsible for the success I had in the NFL.” - Warren Moon, NFL/CFL Quarterback, Pro Football Hall of Fame and Canadian Football Hall of Fame Member, Nine-Time Pro Bowl Selection, Three-Time All-Pro, Five-Time Grey Cup Champion “June Jones is an innovator and a football genius. I could go on all day about Coach Jones’ abilities as it pertains to coaching and leading young men. The thing that separates him from the others is that he truly cares for the young men who play for him. He is not one of those coaches who cares only about churning out players. He helps make men out of them. June Jones is integrity.” - Billy Joe Tolliver, NFL Quarterback “In my 19 years in the NFL, I benefitted the most from my time with June Jones. He refined my game mentally, physically and emotionally. I always felt 100 percent prepared to play under Coach Jones. I only wish I had been with him earlier in my career. June not only has a great understanding of the game, but he also communicates to his players in a way that they understand while making it fun to play. Coach Jones is a proven winner on and off the field and anyone would love playing for him.” - Wade Wilson, NFL Quarterback and Coach, 1988 Pro Bowl, Super Bowl XXX Champion

ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR/LINEBACKERS FIFTH SEASON EASTERN WASHINGTON
ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH QUARTERBACKS FIFTH SEASON UCLA
Tom Mason is in his fifth season on the Hilltop where he serves as SMU's Associate Head Coach, Defensive Coordinator and Linebackers Coach. In his tenure, he has transformed the SMU defense into one of the nation's best. In 2007, the year prior to Mason's arrival, SMU finished the year ranked 116th in total defense. In 2011, SMU ranked 26th, an improvement of 90 spots. Mason has also guided numerous Mustangs to All-League honors. The 2011 season alone saw eight Mustangs defenders earn All-Conference accolades first-teamers Richard Crawford and Taylor Thompson, second-team Ja'Gared Davis, Marquis Frazier and Taylor Reed, honorable mention selections Chris Banjo, Margus Hunt and Torlan Pittman. The season was capped off with a BBVA Compass Bowl win that saw the Mustangs limit Pitt to just 10 rushing yards and a Bowl-record-low six points. In the summer of 2012, Mason coached a group of former Mustangs and local players in the New Era Bowl in Osaka, Japan, defeating a squad made up of former Oregon State players and local Japanese players, 17-7. The 2010 season saw Davis and Thompson tabbed first-teamers, while Banjo and Youri Yenga were second-team picks. Honorable mention picks were Crawford, Pete Fleps, Hunt and Taylor Reed. In 2009, Mason transformed SMU's defense from a 4-3 scheme to a 3-4 and the results were immediate. In SMU's 45-10 win over Nevada in the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl, the Mustang defense held the Wolf Pack's No. 1-ranked rushing offense to a season-low 137 yards - more than 200 yards below its average. Under his tutelage, SMU linebacker Chase Kennemer was named first-team All-C-USA and seven other Mustangs were tabbed for honorable mention AllConference honors. Mason arrived on the Hilltop after spending seven seasons at Fresno State, where he coached linebackers. There, he developed numerous standout linebackers including 2007 WAC Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Riley, 2006 first-team All-WAC honoree Dwayne Andrews and 2003 first-teamer Bryce McGill. Mason joined the Bulldog coaching staff in 2001 after spending one season as linebackers coach with the Las Vegas Outlaws of the XFL. He also spent time in the pro ranks as receivers coach for the British Columbia Lions of the Canadian Football League and as defensive backs coach for the Scottish Claymores of NFL Europe. Mason also boasts an extensive collegiate resume, having served as defensive coordinator (1999) and secondary coach (1998-99) at Nevada and defensive coordinator at both Northern Iowa (1997-98) and Boise State (1993-96). At Boise, Mason helped coordinate a Bronco defense that reached the 1994 NCAA Division I-AA national championship game and then served as Boise's interim head coach from August through November 1996. Prior to his time in Boise, he was defensive coordinator at Portland State (1982-86), helping lead the Vikings to four playoff appearances and two national championship games. He also served as the linebackers coach at Eastern Washington (1981-85) and was the defensive line coach at Walla Walla (Wash.) Community College (1978-80). As a player, Mason began his career as a linebacker at Idaho before transferring to Walla Walla (Wash.) Community College. He finished out his playing career at Nevada from 1976-77. Mason received his bachelor's degree in physical education and a master of science degree in physical education and post-secondary education from Eastern Washington. Mason and his wife, Jami, have a daughter, Brenna.

Dan Morrison is in his fifth season at SMU after spending nine seasons as quarterbacks coach for Hawaii. Along with June Jones, Morrison has brought the Run & Shoot to Dallas. In 2011, Morrison helped new starter J.J. McDermott to a great season, as the senior transfer threw for 3,421 yards, second-most ever at SMU. In the summer of 2012, Morrison coached a group of former Mustangs and local players in the New Era Bowl in Osaka, Japan, defeating a squad made up of former Oregon State players and local Japanese players, 17-7. The 2010 season saw Kyle Padron notch SMU single-season records in passing yards (3,828), total yards (4,072), touchdown passes (31), completions (302) and attempts (508). The 2009 season saw Morrison develop Padron, then a true freshman, into the team's starter after then-starter Bo Levi Mitchell was lost to a shoulder injury midway through the season. The development culminated with Padron's school-record 460-yard, two-TD, Game MVP performance in the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl. With Morrison's guidance, Padron was named to the Conference USA All-Freshman Team, went 5-1 as SMU's starting quarterback and posted a 159.9 passer rating - fifth-best in the nation. As a team, SMU finished ranked 15th in the nation in passing offense. In his first season at SMU, Morrison tutored a pair of freshmen quarterbacks and led the pair to pass for a school-record-tying 29 TDs on the year. The SMU offense ended the season ranked 17th in the nation in passing offense. Morrison produced All-Conference performers in five of his nine seasons at UH, mentoring NCAA all-time passing leader Timmy Chang and NCAA all-time touchdown pass leader Colt Brennan. In 2004, Chang made NCAA history by becoming the all-time passing leader with 17,072 yards, and in 2007, Brennan, who finished third in the Heisman Trophy race, broke 29 NCAA records, including passing touchdowns in a season (58) and career (131). In 1999, Morrison developed a talented, but unproven quarterback in Dan Robinson. Robinson was never allowed to settle in one system, as he played for three different offensive coordinators in as many years. He found a home in the run-and-shoot offense, however, and Morrison coached him to success, as he passed for 3,853 yards and 28 touchdowns. Robinson eventually earned second-team All-Conference honors. In 2000, Morrison guided Chang, a true freshman, through a rebuilding season that earned him WAC Freshman of the Year honors after passing for 3,041 yards and 19 touchdowns. When Chang was granted a medical hardship in 2001, senior Nick Rolovich finally got his chance and, under Morrison's tutelage, became one of the top passers in the country. Rolovich threw for 1,548 yards and 20 touchdowns in his last three games, including an eight-touchdown performance against thenundefeated BYU in the final game of the season. The experienced reserve finished second in the WAC and fourth in the nation in total offense (336.5) and third in the WAC and 10th in the nation in pass efficiency (150.5). In 2002, Chang returned and led the Warriors to a 10-4 record, as he passed for 4,474 yards and 25 touchdowns. Morrison has a strong background as an educator and utilizes those skills to teach the intricacies of the Run-and-Shoot to his quarterbacks. In nine seasons, Warrior quarterbacks passed for over 40,000 yards and 350 touchdowns under Morrison's guidance. During Morrison's tenure at Hawaii, the Warrior offense ranked in the top five nationally in passing each year. He and his wife, Karen, are the parents of Nikki, an SMU graduate. Nikki is married to former SMU standout Donald Mitchell and the two have a daughter, Malia.

Joe Haering enters his fourth season as SMU's assistant linebackers coach, having arrived on the Hilltop in 2009 after spending 12 seasons as a college scout with the Buffalo Bills. In 2011, two of Haering’s linebacking crew - Ja'Gared Davis and Taylor Reed – earned second-team All-C-USA Honors. The season was capped off with a BBVA Compass Bowl win that saw the Mustangs limit Pitt to just 10 rushing yards and a Bowl-record-low six points. The 2010 season was an award-winning campaign for SMU's linebacking corps, with all four starters earning All-C-USA honors. Davis was a first-team selection, Youri Yenga was a second-team choice and Pete Fleps and Reed each garnered honorable mention accolades. In Haering's first season on the Hilltop, Chase Kennemer earned AllConference honors, as the senior notched 135 tackles, the most for an SMU player since 1995. Prior to joining the Bills' scouting staff, Haering was an assistant coach with the Atlanta Falcons from 1994-96. Haering oversaw the Falcons' linebackers, and also served as defensive coordinator in 1995 when they earned a spot in the playoffs. His NFL coaching career began in 1978-79 with the New York Jets, where he served as the Linebackers/Special Teams coach. After his first stint in the NFL, Haering became offensive coordinator for the CFL's Hamilton TigerCats in 1980, and helped lead them to an Eastern Division Championship. He coached in the USFL for all three years that it existed, starting in 1983 under Hall of Fame coach George Allen with the Chicago Blitz. He then moved to become defensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Maulers in 1984, and was defensive coordinator for the Denver Gold in 1985. He later served as head coach for the Pittsburgh Gladiators and the Cincinnati Rockers of the Arena League. Prior to his pro coaching career, he spent ten years at the college level, starting out as the Linebackers' coach at his alma mater, Bucknell. Over the next ten years he had stints at Kentucky, Boston University and Kent State. Haering was an All-Conference linebacker for Bucknell, and was a quarterback in high school. After graduating from Bucknell, he received a commission in the United States Army and served as a first lieutenant and company commander in Vietnam. Haering was inducted into the Western Chapter Of The Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame in the spring of 2010. Haering and his wife, Sandy, maintain homes in Dallas and Atlanta.
Frank Gansz, Jr., is in his second season as SMU's special teams coach, having joined the Mustangs in the spring of 2011. Gansz, Jr., was set to begin his fourth season in charge of special teams at UCLA before he got the call to come to the Hilltop. Gansz, who has an extensive background at the professional and collegiate levels, was the special teams coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens in 2006 and 2007, prior to his time in Los Angeles. In 2010, UCLA ranked second in the nation in net punting and redshirt sophomore punter Jeff Locke ranked fifth in the nation and first in the Pac-10 with an average of 45.8 yards per kick. Placekicker Kai Forbath tied the school record for field goals and was invited to the Senior Bowl along with long-snapper Christian Yount. In 2009, Gansz led Forbath to the Lou Groza Award and consensus first-team All-America honors, as he made 28 of 31 field goal attempts. UCLA also blocked five kicks and scored a touchdown and two safeties on special teams. In 2008, Aaron Perez led the Pacific-10 in punting, Forbath tied for the league lead in field goals and Austin set UCLA marks for all-purpose yards and kickoff return yards. UCLA also blocked two punts for touchdowns and one extra point for a defensive conversion. In 2007, Baltimore placed ninth in the NFL in punt returns and 10th in the league in kickoff returns. In addition, place kicker Matt Stover made 27 of 32 field goals and all 26 PATs. His 27 field goals tied for 10th in the league. In 2006, Stover led NFL kickers with a 93.3% conversion mark, making 28 of 30 field goals, and ranked fourth among all kickers with 121 points. He was named a first alternate for the Pro Bowl. In addition, linebacker Gary Stills led the NFL with 44 special teams tackles, the second most in NFL history, and was also named a Pro Bowl first alternate. Rookie punter Sam Koch produced just three touchbacks, and downed 30 punts inside the 20 (fifth in NFL). He was second in the league with 12 punts inside the 10. Gansz, spent the previous five seasons (2001-05) as special teams coordinator with the Kansas City Chiefs. During that span, Dante Hall was named to the Pro Bowl in both 2002 and '03 as a kick returner and also led the NFL in most kick returns for touchdowns (10, six on kickoffs and four on punts). Gansz-led units excelled in blocking punts and kicks, recording four blocked punts from 2001-02 and Kansas City batted away three field goals in two seasons (2002-03). In 2003, Gansz's units excelled, leading the NFL with four special teams touchdowns, as Hall scored two kickoff returns and two punt returns for scores, en route to his second consecutive Pro Bowl appearance. Hall became the first player in NFL history to record a score on a kickoff return in four straight games. His touchdown in the divisional playoff game vs. Indianapolis gave him five overall returns on the season. Hall also broke a single-season franchise record with 2,446 combined net yards. Kansas City led the league in both punt return average (16.4) and kick return average (25.4), the first team to do so since Washington in 1995. The 16.4 punt return average broke a 43-year-old team record. In Gansz' second season with the Chiefs (2002), Hall scored on three kick returns (two punts and one kickoff) to earn his first pro bowl berth. In 2001, the Chiefs blocked two punts and partially blocked a third. Prior to his tenure in Kansas City, he coached special teams for the Oakland Raiders for two seasons (1998 and 1999), tutoring standouts Desmond Howard, Darrien Gordon and Napoleon Kaufman. Gansz spent five seasons (1993-97) as tight ends and special teams coach at the University of Houston, setting a school record for kickoff return average in 1996. His units set another school record with an 87-yard punt return vs. SMU en route to the ConferenceUSA championship and a trip to the Liberty Bowl vs. Syracuse. He spent one season (1992) with the New York/New Jersey Knights of the World League (NFL Europe). The Knights led the league in punt returns, kickoff returns, kickoff coverage and special team touchdowns (four). Gansz spent two years (1990-91) as tight ends/special teams coach at West Point, two years at the University of Pittsburgh, coaching special teams and the offensive line in 1988 and special teams and the secondary in 1989, and one season (1987) as a graduate assistant at Kansas, working with the wide receivers. Gansz was a four-year defensive back at The Citadel, graduating with a B.A. in history in 1985. Gansz, Jr., is the son of Frank Gansz, Sr., who served as Special Teams Coach at SMU in 2008 before passing away on April 27, 2009.

Derrick Odum enters his fifth season coaching SMU's secondary having come to SMU after three seasons at Utah where he coached safeties. The 2011 season saw the continued development of the SMU secondary, as Richard Crawford earned first-team All-C-USA honors and Chris Banjo was honorable mention. The season was capped off with a BBVA Compass Bowl win that saw the Mustangs limit Pitt to just 10 rushing yards and a Bowl-record-low six points. Following the season, Crawford was selected by the Washington Redskins in the NFL Draft. In 2010, Odum led Banjo to second-team All-Conference USA honors and Crawford to honorable mention accolades, while helping SMU rank second in the league in pass defense efficiency. Another SMU corner, Sterling Moore, would go on to start for the New England Patriots in 2011. In 2009, Odum helped guide a defense that notched 17 interceptions, a number which tied for the 16th-best total in the nation, and led defensive backs Rock Dennis and Bryan McCann to honorable mention All-Conference honors. At Utah in 2007, Odum tutored a defense that finished number one in the nation in pass efficiency defense and fifth in the country in scoring defense. Among the standouts he helped develop were Joe Dale, the 2007 Poinsettia Bowl MVP, Steve Tate, a first-team All-Mountain West selection, and Robert Johnson, who was named the ESPN National Player of the Week after his performance against UCLA. Odum also turned a pair of one-time walk-ons into All-Conference-caliber players while at Utah. In 2005, Casey Evans led the league in interceptions and earned second-team All-MWC honors and Steve Tate led Utah in tackles in both 2005 and 2006 en route to honorable mention (2005) and first-team (2006) All-MWC accolades. Odum also played a role in the emergence of one of the greatest defensive players in Utah football history in 2005, when Eric Weddle manned a safety position for the first eight games of the season before moving to corner. Weddle, a 2006 consensus All-American and two-time MWC Defensive Player of the Year, became a second-round NFL draft pick of the San Diego Chargers. Odum also assisted with the Ute kick returners and the punt team - the latter of which ranked No. 1 in the nation in net punting in 2006.

JASON PHILLIPS
ASSISTANT COACH OFFENSIVE LINE FIRST SEASON DAYTON
ASSISTANT COACH CO-OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR/WIDE RECEIVERS FIRST SEASON HOUSTON
Bob Palcic was named SMU's offensive line coach in March 2012. Palcic, who has coached three Outland Trophy winners, came to SMU after four seasons at UCLA, where he was Associate Head Coach - Offense and offensive line coach. Prior to his time in Westwood, Palcic spent the 2006 and 2007 seasons coaching the offensive line at Wisconsin after 12 years in the National Football League. In all, Palcic possesses 40-plus years of coaching experience. Among the players Palcic has coached are Outland Trophy winners Gabe Carimi, Jonathan Ogden and Joe Thomas, and All-Americans and NFL veterans Tony Boselli, Mike Flanagan, Craig Novitsky, Vaughn Parker and Ray Snell. In 2007, led by the offensive line, Wisconsin finished 9-4 overall and played in the Outback Bowl. There, Palcic tutored Carimi, who went on to win the 2010 Outland Trophy and was a first-round selection in the 2011 NFL Draft. In 2006, he coached Thomas on a Badger team which won 12 of 13 games. Thomas went on to become the No. 3 pick in the 2007 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns. Palcic went to Wisconsin from the NFL's New Orleans Saints, where he coached tight ends from 2000-05. His previous professional stops included coaching offensive line for the Cleveland Browns (1999), tutoring the tight ends for the Detroit Lions (1997-98) and leading the offensive line for the June Jones-coached Atlanta Falcons (1994-96). Palcic also coached at UCLA during the 1993 season, working with Ogden as the Bruins won the Pac-10 championship and played in the 1994 Rose Bowl. Palcic tutored the USC offensive line in 1992 and helped the Trojans to a Freedom Bowl appearance. He was offensive line coach at Ohio State from 1986-91, a period during which the Buckeyes played in two Hall of Fame Bowls, a Cotton Bowl and a Liberty Bowl. Arizona's offensive line was under Palcic's direction from 1984-85 as he helped the Wildcats to a Sun Bowl appearance. A two-year stint (1982-83) with the Canadian Football League's Toronto Argonauts, which included a Grey Cup title in 1983, was preceded by a four-year (1978-81) stop as Wisconsin's offensive line coach.

Jason Phillips joined the SMU football coaching staff as co-offensive coordinator and assistant coach in January 2011. Phillips came to the Hilltop after completing his ninth season at Houston, where he served as offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach. Phillips had also served as UH's recruiting coordinator. Phillips capped a successful 2011 season by helping UH to a dominating 30-14 win over Penn State in the TicketCity Bowl, with his offense finishing with 600 yards of total offense. It was the eighth time in 2011 that the Cougars reached that total. In all, the 2011 Cougar offense was one of the most prolific in NCAA history, averaging nearly 600 yards per game in total offense, ranking second all-time. A huge reason for that production was the play of Houston's wide receivers, which was the country's most productive group. Houston had a number of record-setters on this year's team, including Patrick Edwards, who led the country with 20 touchdown catches. Edwards also ranked second nationally with 1,752 receiving yards and is the school and Conference USA all-time leader with 4,501 career receiving yards. In 2011, Tyron Carrier also ranked in the top 20 nationally in receptions per game and senior Justin Johnson ranked 16th in the nation with a 1,229-yard season. During his tenure at UH, Phillips worked with stellar wide receivers like Carrier, Edwards, Johnson, and Donnie Avery, the first wide receiver taken in the 2008 NFL Draft. In just the past four seasons at UH, Phillips produced seven 1,000-yard receiving seasons from four different players. Phillips also directed an offense led by quarterback Case Keenum, whom Phillips helped to numerous NCAA records. Phillips was a consensus All-America wide receiver during his playing days at Houston. As a coach, Phillips has shown that he has the ability to communicate his ideas and pass on the benefit of his experiences to young players. Phillips was selected to participate in the 2008 NCAA Coaches Academy Program and the 2010 NCAA Champions Forum, both of which were designed to identify and nurture minority future head coaching candidates. A native Houstonian who played at Ross Sterling High School, Phillips first made his mark at the University of Houston by hauling in passes from Heisman Trophy quarterback Andre Ware during the Cougars high-flying, high-scoring Run `N Shoot heyday. Phillips led the nation in receiving yards in 1987 (875 yards) and 1988 (1,444), the first player since Tulsa's Howard Twilley accomplished that feat 23 years earlier. In 1987, Phillips not only was an All-Southwest Conference pick and the SWC Newcomer of the Year, but was also selected to the UPI All-America team. The following year Phillips was named to the All-SWC First Team, was the SWC CoOffensive Player of the Year and a consensus first-team All-America pick. Phillips was also selected to the SWC's All-Decade Team for the 80s, and, in 2006, Phillips' contributions to the program were recognized when he was inducted into the Houston Hall of Honor. Phillips was drafted by Detroit in 1989, where he set a rookie record with a 10-catch, 155-yard performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Phillips enjoyed an eight-year professional career, playing six seasons in the NFL and two in the CFL before moving into the coaching ranks. In 2001, he coached as an offensive intern for the Minnesota Vikings, working under head coach Dennis Green and offensive coordinator Sherman Lewis. In that capacity, Phillips worked closely with wide receivers Randy Moss, Chris Carter, Jake Reed and Chris Walsh. The following season, Phillips served in a similar capacity with the Atlanta Falcons, where he worked under head coach Dan Reeves. Phillips began his college coaching career in 2001, when he served as an offensive assistant at Houston. He spent the following season coaching wide receivers at Texas State before returning to the Cougars as wide receivers coach in 2003. He spent the 2007 at Baylor, serving as the recruiting coordinator and wide receivers coach. He returned to his alma mater in 2008 as Co-Offensive Coordinator/Wide Receivers Coach and Recruiting Coordinator before being promoted to Offensive Coordinator/Wide Receivers Coach in 2010. Phillips, who is married to Kimberly, writes about coaching and has published articles in American Football Monthly Magazine. Phillips earned his bachelor's degree in kinesiology from UH in 2001.

RANDY ROSS
ASSISTANT COACH RUNNING BACKS FIFTH SEASON LINFIELD
DIRECTOR OF FOOTBALL OPERATIONS SIXTH SEASON ST. BERNARD
Wes Suan is in his fifth season at SMU, and his work with Mustang running backs has been vital to the success of Jones' Run-and-Shoot offense. In 2011, Zach Line was again among the national leaders before suffering a season-ending foot injury. Despite missing the final three games of the year, Line still led Conference USA and ranked seventh in the nation in rushing at 122.4 yards a game and 5.88 yards per rush. He posted eight 100-yard rushing games in 10 games played and set a school-record for rushing touchdowns in a game with five against Northwestern State. He finished with 1,224 yards for the year. Once Line went down, Suan turned to a pair of true freshmen, Jerad Williams and Rishaad Wimbley. The duo racked up 358 yards and five scores on 82 carries and helped SMU to a win in the BBVA Compass Bowl. The 2010 season saw Line explode for an unexpected 1,494 rushing yards, which ranked 11th in the country and trailed only Eric Dickerson for most singleseason rushing yards in SMU history. He was named first-team Conference USA, averaging 6.1 yards per carry and scoring 10 touchdowns, as he became the second 1,000-yard rusher under Jones. In 2009, Suan helped Shawnbrey McNeal earn honorable mention AllConference accolades and become the first collegiate 1,000-yard rusher under June Jones. As a freshman, Line also had a breakout season, scoring seven TDs on just 49 carries. Suan, who spent nine seasons as an assistant at Hawaii, spent his first six years with Jones' staff as a running backs coach before moving to the offensive line in 2005. He moved back to the running backs in 2006 and 2007. During his tenure, he developed a well-rounded group of runners and blockers who learned to recognize and identify various defensive schemes and blitzes. In 2007, two Suan-coached running backs were selected in the NFL Draft - Reagan Mauia and Nate Ilaoa. Mauia went in the sixth round to the Miami Dolphins, while Ilaoa was selected in the seventh round by the Philadelphia Eagles. Suan began his coaching career at Leilehua High School as an assistant for the junior varsity squad in 1975. He moved on to serve as an assistant football and basketball coach and head track coach at Waialua High School in 1976, where he stayed for four years. Suan took an assistant coaching job at Linfield in 1979, where he also served as assistant athletics director (1992-98). He stayed at Linfield for 19 years before returning to the islands. An avid golfer, Suan lives with his wife, Judy, and their two daughters, McKenzie and Madeline.

Among C-USA’s 5,000 student-athletes, there are champions off the playing field as well. In 17 years, 169 student-athletes earned national Capital One Academic All-America honors, while 588 were named All-District. In addition, more than 22,000 student-athletes have been named to the Commissioner’s Honor Roll or received the Commissioner’s Academic Medal, indicative of outstanding achievement in the classroom.
C-USA ON TV
C-USA enjoys significant television exposure through partnerships with FOX Sports Media Group, CBS Sports Network and ESPN. The multi-tiered selection process that is rooted in partnering with all three networks has substantially increased the number of national and regional appearances for football, men’s and women’s basketball, and all other conference sports.
C-USA DIGITAL NETWORK
The C-USA Digital Network officially launched in August of 2011. Network programming includes live streaming of non-televised events, video on demand, a weekly C-USA studio show, podcasting, regular-season and championship event highlights and conferenceproduced feature stories. In its first year, 1,164 events were streamed live and 8,126 videos were posted and available on the C-USA Digital Network, and that number just keeps growing. Monthly and yearly subscriptions offer fans access to events offered on all 12 of the C-USA member institution’s athletic websites as well as C-USA network programming.
C-USA IN THE COMMUNITY
The conference’s footprint is concentrated with 12 members in nine states and a combined area population of nearly 17 million. More than 1.1 million living alumni represent C-USA schools across the nation. With a renewed commitment to community involvement, the conference has begun development of several initiatives to maintain strong ties in C-USA cities, as well as with fans and alumni across the country. C-USA schools also place a priority on giving back to their communities through volunteer service with local and national organizations.
GOVERNANCE
Conference USA has significant representation in the NCAA governance structure. The Presidents of the member institutions serve as the league’s Board of Directors.
A PROUD HISTORY
Conference USA was formed in 1995 and quickly emerged as one of the nation’s top conferences. The conference unveiled its name, logo and commissioner April 24, 1995 in Chicago. The league’s charter members included Charlotte, Cincinnati, DePaul, Houston, Louisville, Marquette, Memphis, Saint Louis, Southern Miss, Tulane, UAB and USF. Eleven of the institutions began athletic participation in 1995, while Houston joined competition in the fall of 1996. The league’s headquarters were established in Chicago and after nine years, relocated to the current office in Irving, Texas. Britton Banowsky was named Commissioner in October 2002, succeeding Mike Slive, the league’s first commissioner. C-USA added East Carolina (September, 1996) and the United States Military Academy (March, 1997) as football members. ECU began league competition in 1997; Army in 1998 and UAB began football play in 1999. The league added TCU and ECU (1999) for all sports and they began competition in 2001. USF started C-USA football in 2003. After celebrating its 10th Anniversary during the 2004-05 season, Conference USA began a new chapter in 2005-06 when its current membership came together.

Cyrus Gray and Christine Michael ran for two touchdowns apiece and Ryan Tannehill threw for two more scores to help No. 8 Texas A&M beat SMU 46-14. The Aggies intercepted SMU quarterback Kyle Padron on SMU’s first two possessions to jump out to a 14-0 lead. SMU coach June Jones replaced Padron with backup J.J. McDermott after the early miscues and he helped the Mustangs cut it to 20-14 in the second quarter. But the Mustangs couldn’t do much offensively after that and the Aggies scored 26 straight points the rest of the way to secure the win. McDermott finished with 254 yards passing and a touchdown, but was sacked seven times. Zach Line ran for 128 yards and a score and 6-foot-8 defensive end Margus Hunt blocked two extra points for the Mustangs. Line had 101 yards rushing with 10 minutes left in the second quarter, but managed just 27 the rest of the way. Scoring Summary SMU 7 A&M 20 1st

UTEP SMU
Zach Line rushed for 114 yards and two touchdowns and J.J. McDermott was a winner in his first start at quarterback for SMU in a 28-17 victory against UTEP. Line scored on 1- and 7-yard runs for the Mustangs. McDermott, a senior who relieved Kyle Padron at Texas A&M, was 18 of 31 for 244 yards and an interception. UTEP lost starting quarterback Nick Lamaison to a shoulder separation in the third quarter. The Mustangs sealed the win when quarterback Jay Hall’s fumble in the end zone was recovered by Ja’Gared Davis for a TD, making the score 28-17 with 2:39 remaining. Scoring Summary UTEP 10 SMU 14 1st

J.J. McDermott threw for three touchdowns and 357 yards to lead SMU in a 42-0 rout of Memphis. The Mustangs dominated from the outset, as J.R. Richardson returned the opening kickoff 33 yards before the offense drove the final 63 on seven plays. Zach Line finished it off with his first of three consecutive 1-yard TD runs. Line finished with 136 yards on 20 carries to set up McDermott’s passing game. McDermott went to the air 44 times, completing 28 passes. Darius Johnson caught 10 of those for 116 yards and two touchdowns, and Der’rikk Thompson had six catches for 104 yards and a 44-yard touchdown. Memphis got into the red zone just once, reaching first-and-goal from the 10 late in the first half. However, Reed threw three straight incompletions. Scoring Summary Memphis 0 SMU 14 1st

40 33
SMU hasn’t enjoyed many stampedes since the days of Eric Dickerson and the Pony Express. The Mustangs relished one on Oct. 1. SMU stormed the field after a fourth-down pass from No. 20 TCU fell incomplete in overtime, clinching a 40-33 upset of the Horned Frogs, just the second win over a ranked team for SMU since it was banished from football by the NCAA’s so-called death penalty in the 1980s. It looked like the Mustangs would cruise to their biggest win in four years under coach June Jones, one of college football’s most noted turnaround artists. But SMU coughed up a 16-point lead in the fourth quarter before J.J. McDermott started overtime with a 19-yard scoring pass to Jeremy Johnson, McDermott’s fourth TD pass of the game. SMU won it when TCU quarterback Casey Pachall couldn’t get his team in the end zone after throwing three fourth-quarter touchdown passes. His toss on fourth-and-2 was tipped and bounced off the chest of TCU’s Brandon Carter, prompting a wild SMU celebration that also marked the end of TCU’s school-record 22-game home winning streak. Even though TCU scored 23 fourth-quarter points, the Mustangs also were moving the ball behind McDermott and Darius Johnson, who repeatedly teamed up for big third-down completions, starting with a 13-yard touchdown on the game’s opening drive. The pair hooked up on a 21-yard score to put the Mustangs ahead 33-17 barely a minute after Pachall had thrown his first TD pass on the opening play of the fourth quarter. McDermott and Johnson did it again on a 32-yarder on third-and-17 midway through the fourth before TCU finally stiffened. After forcing a punt, the Frogs drove 77 yards to a field goal, then SMU’s Kenneth Hacker hesitated a yard deep in the end zone and was tackled at the 10 on the subsequent kickoff. The Frogs held and had to drive just 46 yards to the tying score, a 4-yard pass from Pachall to Luke Shivers with 1:16 remaining. SMU’s Zach Line entered the game second nationally with 11 touchdowns, but the biggest play from the linebacker-turned-running back came on the kickoff coverage team to start the second half. He stripped TCU’s Greg McCoy inside the 10, and Chris Parks recovered in the end zone for a 24-10 lead. The Mustangs rode the momentum swing from that play until TCU’s big rally in the fourth quarter. The Horned Frogs couldn’t stop SMU on third down and were having trouble getting first downs themselves for the most first half. The problem was best illustrated early in the second quarter when TCU had second and less than a yard and couldn’t keep the ball. Ed Wesley lost 4 yards, and Waymon James fell down short of the first-down marker after catching a short pass from Pachall. Wesley turned things in TCU’s favor in just one play, though. He ran through a huge hole in the middle of the line and skirted through the secondary before he was caught from behind on a 63-yard run to the SMU 3. Matthew Tucker scored two plays later to cut SMU’s lead to 17-7. Scoring Summary SMU 14 TCU 0 1st

The Southern Mississippi defense turned in its best performance in three years, helping the Golden Eagles to a 27-3 win over SMU in Conference USA play. Southern Miss held the high-powered SMU offense to 330 yards and 14 first downs and forced two late turnovers to put the game away. Trailing 13-3 at halftime, SMU drove into Southern Miss territory twice in the second half. The Mustangs were forced to punt the first time, then Golden Eagles cornerback Markese Wheaton intercepted a J.J. McDermott pass in the end zone for a touchback. He intercepted McDermott again on the next SMU drive and returned it 41 yards for a touchdown with 6:54 left. Southern Miss quarterback Austin Davis was 27 of 37 for 266 yards and a touchdown.

NAVY SMU
24 17
Navy quarterback Kriss Proctor rushed for 107 yards and John Howell scored the go-ahead touchdown as the Midshipmen -- who didn’t complete a pass all game -- beat SMU 24-17. Navy rushed for 335 yards in what served as a preview of sorts if the two teams wind up in the Big East. Zach Line rushed for 135 yards, his eighth 100-yard effort this season, and Cole Beasley scored two touchdowns as SMU lost its third in four games. Beasley’s 2-yard run with 3:40 left pulled SMU to 24-17, but the Midshipmen ran out the clock with the help of an 8-yard run on third-and-6 from Gee Gee Greene, who was sent airborne on the play.

Case Keenum threw a touchdown pass and ran for another score as No. 11 Houston stayed unbeaten with a 37-7 win over SMU. Keenum completed 30 of 45 passes for 318 yards, a modest day for the nation’s leader in total offense and pass efficiency. SMU gained just 263 yards on offense and didn’t score until J.J. McDermott threw a short touchdown pass to Darius Johnson with 8:33 left in the game. The Mustangs had 93 yards and six first downs in the first half and trailed 13-0. McDermott got the Mustangs moving early in the third quarter, and found Cole Beasley down the sideline for a 27-yard gain to the Houston 4. But on third down, linebacker Phillip Steward intercepted a McDermott pass in the end zone. Scoring Summary SMU 0 UH 3 1st 9:02 2nd 14:10 0:46 3rd 6:32 0:30 4th 8:33 6:17 1:18

BBVA COMPASS BOWL
J.J. McDermott ran and threw for first quarter touchdowns and SMU beat Pittsburgh 28-6 in the BBVA Compass Bowl. Rishaad Wimbley ran for two scores for SMU, which tied a school record by playing in its third straight bowl under coach June Jones. McDermott completed 16 of 26 passes for 239 yards and a touchdown, to Darius Johnson early in the first. Pittsburgh was held without a first down and fell behind 21-0 in the first quarter. Kevin Harper kicked field goals of 32 and 34 yards. McDermott beat Pitt’s blitz when lobbed a 50-yard touchdown pass to Darius Johnson for the Mustangs’ first touchdown. Johnson had seven catches for 120 yards. The 50-yard catch was the longest in the six-year history of the bowl. After McDermott’s 1-yard run capped an eight-play drive to push the lead to 14-0, Ja’Gared Davis hit Pitt quarterback Tino Sunseri, forcing a fumble that was recovered by Taylor Reed at the Panthers’ 27. McDermott’s 19-yard pass to Cole Beasley set up Wimbley’s 2-yard touchdown run. Wimbley added a 1-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. With SMU still leading 21-3 later in the quarter, Pitt drove from its 16 to a first and goal at the Mustangs’ 10. On third down from the 5, Sunseri’s pass bounced off tailback Isaac Bennett. The deflection was caught by SMU linebacker Stephon Sanders for an interception. The half ended with Pitt again coming away with no points at the end of a long drive. Harper’s 47-yard field goal attempt hit the left upright to end a 14-play drive. Scoring Summary SMU 21 Pitt 0 1st

LEVIAS BREAKS DOWN WALLS Jerry LeVias has overcome many obstacles in his life to achieve his success. At the age of 12, LeVias suffered a stroke which left him unable to walk for five years, but he rebounded to become a barrier-breaker in college football. The turbulent 1960s saw a huge change in the SMU football program when LeVias accepted the Mustangs' offer to become the first African-American football player to earn an athletic scholarship in the Southwest Conference. LeVias, who chose SMU LeVias earned All-America and All-SWC honors while on the Hilltop... largely because of its accounting program, eventually was named All-America, Academic All-America and Southwest Conference Player of the Year in 1968 when he set the SMU record for receiving yards in a season (1,131). A coach of a high school all-star team of which LeVias was a member said of the wide receiver, “He’ll make a good coach out of someone.” That coach’s name was Doak Walker, the same man who would see many of his own collegiate records broken by LeVias. The Houston native was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in December 2003. Starting in 2009, a deserving student-athlete on the SMU football team is chosen annually to wear the number “23” on his jersey to And was later honored for his honor LeVias for his contributions induction into the College Football to America, the sport of football Hall of Fame. and SMU.

THE MUSTANG LEGEND
Legend has it that when Ford Motor Company was preparing to introduce the sports car that would gain fame as the Mustang, it was considering other names such as Cougar, Bronco, Cheetah and Colt. But during the 1963 football season, SMU took an undersized but quick team to Ann Arbor to play a massive Michigan Wolverine squad. Michigan gained the early advantage, but had to fight off the feisty Ponies for a 27-16 win. After the game, Ford’s Lee Iacocca entered the SMU locker room and addressed the disappointed Mustangs. Iacocca said, “After watching the SMU Mustangs play with such flair, we reached a decision. We will call our new car the Mustang. Because it will be light, like your team. It will be quick, like your team. And it will be sporty, like your team.” Ford’s new car got its name, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Legend has it that Ford's signature car, the Mustang, got its nickname via the SMU football team following this 1963 game at Michigan.

THE 1915 MUSTANGS On the morning of Sept. 14, 1915, coach Ray Morrison held his first practice, thus marking the birth of the SMU football program. A former All-Southern quarterback at Vanderbilt, Morrison immediately installed the passing game at SMU. Morrison came to be known as “the father of the forward pass” because of his use of the passing game on first and second downs instead of as a last resort. A local sportswriter nicknamed the team “the Parsons” because the squad was composed primarily of theological students. SMU was a member of the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which ruled that neither graduate nor transfer students were eligible to play. Therefore, the first SMU team consisted entirely of freshmen. The Mustangs played their first game Oct. 10, 1915, dropping a 43-0 decision to TCU in Fort Worth. SMU bounced back in its next game, its first at home, to defeat Hendrix College, 13-2. During the 1915 season, the Mustangs posted a record of 2-5 and scored just three touchdowns while giving up 131 points.

THE IRON SKILLET During the post-World War II college football boom, the SMU and TCU student bodies created a traveling trophy called the Iron Skillet that was presented to the winner of the annual football game between the archrivals. The tradition eventually died, and the skillet was lost. In 1993, however, the tradition was revived as the president of the SMU student body painted the face of the TCU student body president red and blue following the Mustangs' 21-15 victory in Fort Worth. The engraved skillet is presented to the winning team after each game.

THE HISTORY OF SMU FOOTBALL 1910S
On the morning of Sept. 14, 1915, coach Ray Morrison held his first practice, thus marking the birth of the SMU football program. Morrison came to the school in June of 1915 when he became the coach of the University’s football, basketball, baseball and track teams, as well as an instructor of mathematics. A former All-Southern quarterback at Vanderbilt, Morrison immediately installed the passing game at SMU. A local sportswriter nicknamed the team “the Parsons” because the squad was composed primarily of theology students. SMU was a member of the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which ruled that neither graduate nor transfer students were eligible to play. Therefore, the first SMU team consisted entirely of freshmen. The Mustangs played their first game Oct. 10, 1915, dropping a 43-0 decision to TCU in Fort Worth. SMU bounced back in its next game, its first at home, to defeat Hendrix College, 13-2. Morrison came to be known as “the father of the forward pass” because of his use of the passing game on first and second downs instead of as a last resort. • During the 1915 season, the Mustangs posted a record of 2-5 and scored just three touchdowns while giving up 131 points. SMU recorded the first shutout in school history with a 7-0 victory over Dallas University that year. • SMU finished the 1916 season 0-8-2 and suffered its worst loss ever, a 146-3 drubbing by Rice. The Mustangs were outscored, 455-27, by their opponents while managing ties against Austin College (0-0) and Southwestern (9-9). Ray Morrison left SMU following the 1916 season to work with the Army YMCA at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., as Director of Sports and Recreation. He returned to SMU in 1920 to organize a Department of Physical Education. • J. Burton Rix became the second head football coach in 1917 and guided SMU to its first winning season (3-2-3). • In 1918, SMU became a member of the Southwest Conference, joining Baylor, Rice, Texas, Texas A&M, Arkansas and Oklahoma A&M (which later became Oklahoma State). Record for the decade: 14-21-6
Ray Morrison was SMU's first football coach and also coached the basketball, baseball & track teams on the Hilltop
Ownby Stadium was built in 1926
1920S The 1920s brought the first two Southwest Conference football championships and a new stadium to the Hilltop. After Rix led the Ponies to a combined 4-11-3 record in the decade’s first two years, Ray Morrison returned as coach in 1922 and guided SMU to the first of 10 consecutive winning seasons. Sportswriters billed the Mustangs the “Aerial Circus,” in reference to Morrison’s passing offense. At a time when most teams threw the ball five or six times per game, SMU passed between 30 and 40 times per contest. The Mustangs recorded a perfect 9-0 mark and won the school’s first conference title one year later in 1923. In 1926, Ownby Stadium was built, named after SMU alumnus and strong supporter of athletics Jordan C. Ownby. SMU defeated North Texas State Teachers College, 42-0, Sept. 24, 1926, in the first game at Ownby. Quarterback Gerald Mann, known as “The Little Red Arrow” because of his strong, accurate passing, was a member of the first Mustang team to play in Ownby Stadium and, as part of his scholarship chores, helped plant the grass on the stadium playing field. SMU steamrolled over its first three opponents that year, shutting out North Texas State, Trinity and Centenary by a combined score of 127-0. Missouri was the only roadblock for the Mustangs in their 8-0-1 season, managing a 7-7 tie. • In 1922, end Gene Bedford and back Logan Stollenwerck were named first-team All-Southwest Conference, becoming the first Mustang players to achieve that honor. Bedford became the first player from SMU to play professionally when he played for the Rochester Jeffersons in 1925. • The Mustangs made their first bowl appearance in 1924, playing against West Virginia Wesleyan in the Dixie Classic on New Year’s Day. The game, played at Fair Park Stadium in Dallas, was the predecessor to the Cotton Bowl. WVW spoiled SMU’s 18-game unbeaten streak with a 9-7 victory. • In the spring of 1926, Morrison decided that it would be important to find a left-handed quarterback for the upcoming Southwest Conference season. Gerald Mann, who was the Mustangs’ right-handed quarterback, told Morrison that he would have his left-handed quarterback before the season began. Not eager to lose his duty as signal-caller, Mann reported to fall practice ready to throw left-handed. • Guard Choc Sanders became SMU’s first All-America player in 1928. Sanders was also the Southwest Conference's first All-America selection. Tackle Marion Hammon became the Mustangs' second AllAmerican one year later. Record for the decade: 56-22-16

1930S
The Mustang football program continued its rapid ascent to national prominence during the 1930s. SMU won its first national championship in 1935 after posting a 12-win season under the guidance of first-year head coach Matty Bell. Known as a player’s coach, Bell brought discipline to his team, and he spent time listening and talking to his players. Fullback Harry Shuford and tackle Truman “Big Dog” Spain were two prominent players on the national championship team. A tri-captain, Shuford was the Mustangs’ best running back during the 1935 season, but injury forced him to miss the season’s most critical contest. The Mustangs, ranked No. 1 in the country, played second-ranked TCU and its star quarterback, Sammy Baugh, for the unofficial national championship and the right to play in the Rose Bowl Jan. 1, 1936, against Stanford. Bobby Wilson scored two touchdowns to give SMU a 14-0 lead before Baugh rallied the Horned Frogs to a 14-14 tie. Early in the fourth quarter, Bob Finley connected on a long pass to Wilson after the Mustangs faced a fourth down at the TCU 39. Wilson caught the ball at the five and rolled into the end zone as the Mustangs held on to win, 20-14, and earned a trip to the Rose Bowl. Despite entering the game as heavy favorites, the Ponies were upset by Stanford, 7-0, with Cardinal quarterback Bill Paulman scoring the game’s only touchdown on a first-quarter run. While the loss constituted the only blemish on a 12-1 season, SMU was able to pay off its 10-year debt on Ownby Stadium with the check the University received from competing in the Rose Bowl. • Prior to becoming the head coach at SMU in 1935, Matty Bell served as the head coach at TCU (1923-1928) and Texas A&M (1929-33). Bell arrived at SMU in 1934 and served one season as the line coach. • Three SMU players earned All-America status in 1935: tackle Truman Spain, guard J.C. Wetsel and back Bobby Wilson. Wilson, who scored all three Mustang touchdowns in the dramatic 20-14 win over TCU, went on to play one year of pro football for the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1936. • SMU won its third Southwest Conference championship in 1931 after finishing the season with a 9-1-1 mark. The Mustangs struggled the next two seasons, posting a 3-7-2 record in 1932 and a 4-7-1 record in 1933. • Harry Shuford was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in 1936 and, despite the team’s efforts to sign him to a contract, opted to attend law school at SMU. Shuford overcame the prevailing thought that a football player could not succeed in law school and finished first in his class in 1939. Record for the decade: 64-38-9

1940S
While the 1930s established SMU’s position on the national football map, the 1940s ensured its permanent inclusion. A conference co-championship in 1940 served as a solid beginning to the new decade, but was followed by six consecutive losing seasons from 1941 through 1946. World War II resulted in the loss of Bell for three years (1942-45) when he left the Hilltop to join the Navy reserves. Bell returned to SMU in 1945 and took on an additional role as the University’s athletic director. The 1947 season brought new hope and the emergence of a legend in Doak Walker. The only three-time All-American in SMU history, Walker led the Mustangs to consecutive Southwest Conference championships in 1947 and 1948. Over the course of his career at SMU, Walker rushed for 1,954 yards, passed for 1,638 yards, scored 288 points, punted for a 39.4 average, and kicked field goals and extra points. He is also the Mustangs’ all-time leader in punt return yards with 750. Walker’s exploits earned him the Heisman Trophy in 1948 and led to his number, 37, being retired at SMU. Led by Walker, Kyle Rote, Dick McKissack and Paul Page, the Mustang backfield combined hard running with tricky reverse and gadget plays to wreak havoc on opposing defenses in the latter part of the decade. • Walker was a high school teammate of Bobby Layne at Highland Park High School in Dallas. The two were matched against each other in Walker’s first collegiate game in 1945 when Layne was the quarterback at Texas. Although UT won the game, 12-7, Walker scored the Mustangs’ only touchdown and kicked the extra point. Walker and Layne were reunited as teammates when both played for the Detroit Lions in the early 1950s. • After playing their home games since 1926 at Ownby Stadium, the Mustangs moved to the Cotton Bowl in 1948 and remained there for 31 years. For almost a half-century, the last game played at Ownby was Oct. 2, 1948, when SMU defeated Texas Tech, 41-6. Because of his immense popularity, the Cotton Bowl became known as “The House That Doak Built.” • Following the 1947 and 1948 seasons, SMU played in back-toback Cotton Bowls. The Mustangs were matched against Penn State in the 1948 game, tying the Nittany Lions, 13-13. Walker threw a 53-yard touchdown pass and scored on a two-yard run, but Penn State’s Elwood Petchel matched Walker by tossing scoring passes of 38 and six yards. The 1949 Cotton Bowl paired SMU with Oregon and its star quarterback, Norm Van Brocklin. The Mustangs won 21-13. Record for the decade: 58-46-10

Kyle Rote (44) was named an All-American following the 1950 season
1950S
After playing alongside Doak Walker the previous two seasons, Kyle Rote was given his chance to be the featured back in 1950. Rote, who led the Southwest Conference with 777 yards rushing in 1949, was named an All-American following the 1950 season. As the Walker-Rote era came to an end, so began a new period of Mustang gridiron greats including Fred Benners, Forrest Gregg, Raymond Berry and Don Meredith. One of the most prolific passers in Mustang history, Benners completed 109 passes in 108 minutes played in 1950. A two-time All-Southwest Conference selection, Forrest Gregg was a two-way player at both offensive and defensive tackle from 1952-55. At first, he was not offered a full scholarship by SMU upon graduation from Sulphur Springs High School, and was leaning toward attending Texas A&M. However, chief recruiter Herman “Sleepy” Morgan, recognizing Gregg’s infinite potential, ultimately lured him to the Hilltop with an offer of a full scholarship. Despite the fact that Berry caught just 11 passes for 144 yards during his junior season and had never started a game in his career, his teammates elected him as a co-captain in 1954. With that vote of confidence, Berry went on to earn All-Southwest Conference and Academic All-America accolades. He was a 20th-round draft choice of the Baltimore Colts in 1955 and was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1973. Don Meredith was a two-time All-American in 1958 and 1959, and his 61% career completion percentage is still among the greatest of any passers in Mustang history. One of his best attributes was his running ability, which increased the pressure on opposing defenses. • After Bell decided to relinquish his duties as head football coach to devote himself full-time to his responsibilities as athletic director, three different head coaches guided the Mustangs in the 1950s: H.N. “Rusty” Russell (1950-52), Chalmer Woodard (1953-56) and Bill Meek (1957-61). Bell's 127 career wins and 65.3% winning percentage are among the best in SMU’s coaching records. • While Meek’s teams won just 17 of 50 games during his tenure, he was responsible for installing an early version of the Run-and-Shoot offense during Don Meredith’s sophomore season. Meek employed a spread formation, using a receiver wide to each side and one in the slot on each side.
• In his first varsity season in 1957, Meredith set an SWC singleseason record by connecting on 71 of 102 passes for a .696 completion percentage. During his Mustang career, Meredith also returned kickoffs, punted and kicked. • Quarterback Fred Benners led the Mustangs to perhaps their greatest win of the decade when he completed 22 of 42 passes for 336 yards to beat Notre Dame, 27-20, in South Bend Oct. 13, 1951. Record for the decade: 47-48-5

1960S
The first two years of the decade found the Mustangs shackled with mounting losses and sagging attendance. In 1960, SMU finished 0-9-1 and average home attendance fell below 30,000 for the first time since 1946. Following a 2-7-1 season in 1961, SMU introduced Hayden Fry as the Mustangs’ eighth head coach. Fry lifted SMU back to national prominence in 1966, when SMU was ranked ninth in the nation and won its first conference championship in 18 years. Jerry LeVias became the first African-American player in the Southwest Conference to receive an athletic scholarship in 1965 after choosing SMU largely because of its accounting program. As a senior in 1968, LeVias caught 80 passes for a school-record 1,131 yards when he was selected both an All-American and Academic All-American. Combined with quarterback Chuck Hixson, LeVias helped lead the Mustangs to a 28-27 win over Oklahoma in the 1968 Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl, giving SMU its first bowl victory since the 1949 Cotton Bowl. Hixson was just a sophomore in 1968, but he finished the season as the nation’s leading passer by completing 265 of 468 attempts for 3,103 yards. October 11, 1963, provided the SMU football program with perhaps its most memorable game when the Mustangs hosted fourth-ranked Navy and its heralded quarterback, Roger Staubach at the Cotton Bowl. On its way to a 4-7 season, SMU was given little chance to beat the Midshipmen. Little-known sophomore John Roderick rushed for 146 yards on 11 carries and scored on touchdown runs of 45 and two yards for the Mustangs. The SMU defense, led by Bob Oyler, Martin Cude, Bill Harlan, Harold Magers and Doug January, sent Staubach to the bench twice with a dislocated left shoulder. Trailing, 28-26, with 2:52 remaining in the game, SMU had one last chance to pull off the upset. Quarterback Danny Thomas threw to Billy Gannon, who ran to the Navy 46. On the next play, Roderick took a pitchout 23 yards to the 23. After a pass interference penalty against Navy put the ball on the one-yard line, Gannon plowed over right tackle for the winning touchdown with 2:05 left. The SMU defense held off Staubach’s valiant effort to rally his team for one last score, as the Mustangs pulled off the 32-28 upset. • Jerry LeVias and John LaGrone were the only three-time All-SWC selections of the decade. LaGrone was also the first Mustang player to be selected as both an All-American and Academic All-American when he was honored following the 1966 season. • Led by LeVias and Chuck Hixson, the 1968 Mustangs eclipsed the 300-point barrier for the first time in school history, scoring 311 points. In addition to his 1,131 receiving yards, LeVias set school records for receptions in a game (15 vs. Ohio State) and receiving yards in a game (213 vs. N.C. State). Record for the decade: 35-65-3

HISTORY
Defensively, Robert Popelka, Louie Kelcher and Putt Choate starred for the Mustangs in the 1970s. All three were two-time All-Southwest Conference performers during their careers at SMU. Ron Meyer was hired as SMU’s 10th head coach in January of 1976 and was given the responsibility of establishing a championship reign on the Hilltop. His ability to recruit players such as Mike Ford and Emanuel Tolbert helped build the foundation of “Mustang Mania.” A highly-touted quarterback recruit from Mesquite High School, Ford was the nation’s second-ranked passer in 1978, when he threw for 3,007 yards. His main target was Tolbert, an All-American with blazing speed. Home attendance jumped from 26,000 to 52,000 in 1978 and “Mustang Mania” ushered a new era in SMU football the following season, when the Mustangs began playing all of their home games at Texas Stadium. Accompanying the move to a new stadium in 1979 was a freshman class which would lift SMU football to new heights. Freshmen Eric Dickerson and Craig James combined to rush for 1,239 yards in 1979, and the “Pony Express” was born. • Tailback Arthur Whittington finished second in the nation in allpurpose running to Pittsburgh’s Tony Dorsett in 1976 with 167.5 yards a game. Whittington finished his SMU career in 1977 as the Mustangs’ all-time leader in kickoff return yards with 1,649. • A four-year starter from 1973-76, Ricky Wesson became the first Mustang quarterback to accumulate more yards rushing than passing in a single season in 1974. Wesson rushed for 885 yards while passing for 688. He became the fourth player in SMU history to lead the Mustangs in rushing and passing in the same season. • Putt Choate became the first Mustang defender to record more than 200 tackles in a season when he made 253 in 1978. Choate finished his career with 649 stops. • Despite coming from different backgrounds, Eric Dickerson and Craig James shared similar success before arriving at SMU. Both led their high schools to undefeated 15-0 seasons and state championships as seniors. In three years at Sealy High School, Dickerson rushed for 5,875 yards and 84 touchdowns. James collected 2,411 yards and 35 TDs during his senior season at Stratford High School in Houston. Record for the decade: 48-59-3
1970S
Over the course of the 1970s, the SMU football program was shaped by outstanding individual performances and the birth of "Mustang Mania" on the Hilltop. Chuck Hixson ended his SMU career in 1970 as the Mustangs’ career leader in total offense with 7,179 yards. Alvin Maxson helped fill the void left by Hixson’s absence by becoming the first Mustang to rush for 1,000 yards in consecutive seasons when he rushed for 1,012 in 1971 and 1,005 in 1972. In the process, he helped the Mustangs to back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 1958-59.

1980S
There was a great deal of optimism surrounding the SMU football program in 1980. Eric Dickerson and Craig James gave the Mustangs one of the nation’s top backfield duos and Mike Ford returned to the team after a knee injury limited him to just two starts in 1979. Leading the defense were future All-Americans John Simmons and Harvey Armstrong. The Mustangs parlayed their talent into an 8-4 record and the school’s first national ranking (20th) since 1968. A 10-1 record the following season vaulted the Ponies to their second National Championship and their first conference title in 16 years, as a new quarterback took the reigns of the Pony Express. Lance McIlhenny was the perfect leader for SMU’s option attack, using his running ability and leadership capabilities to guide the Mustangs to a 34-5-1 record after becoming the starting quarterback in the seventh game of his freshman season in 1980. After Ron Meyer was named head coach of the New England Patriots prior to the 1982 season, Southern Mississippi coach Bobby Collins was named the Mustangs’ new head coach. Dickerson, James and McIlhenny led SMU to an 11-0-1 record and its second-consecutive National Championship in 1982, highlighted by a victory over Pittsburgh and its star quarterback, Dan Marino, in the Cotton Bowl. With the loss of Dickerson and James to the National Football League in 1983, the Mustangs found a capable replacement in Reggie Dupard, a tailback from New Orleans whose blazing speed made him the first SMU running back to gain over 1,000 yards in three consecutive seasons. Dupard was the nation’s eighth-leading rusher in 1985 with 1,278 yards, and he became a first-round draft choice by the New England Patriots the following spring. After NCAA sanctions forced the cancellation of the 1987 season and University officials cancelled the 1988 campaign, SMU welcomed one of its former gridiron greats back to lead the resurrection of the Mustang

football program. Forrest Gregg returned to accept what he called “the ultimate challenge” when he was named as the Ponies’ head coach Jan. 14, 1988, after having coached the Green Bay Packers since 1984. He was given the responsibility of guiding a team consisting of 74 freshmen, 16 of whom were starters. One of those freshmen was quarterback Mike Romo who, on Feb. 10, 1988, became the Mustangs’ first signee since 1985. Romo engineered one of the most exciting wins in Mustang history when he led SMU from a 17-point deficit in the final five minutes to defeat Connecticut, 31-30, in just the second game of the 1989 season. He completed a four-yard pass to Michael Bowen on the game’s final play to give the Ponies their first win since 1986 in a game that came to be known as the "Miracle on Mockingbird." • One of the most memorable plays in SMU football history took place Nov. 13, 1982, when Bobby Leach took a cross-field lateral on a kickoff with 17 seconds left and raced untouched for a 91-yard touchdown to give the Mustangs a 34-27 win over Texas Tech. The play helped preserve the Ponies’ undefeated season and forever branded Leach with the nickname of “Miracle Man.” • As a freshman in 1989, Mike Romo broke four school passing records which had stood for over 20 years. Romo set SMU records for yards passing in a game (450), passes completed in a game (40), passes completed in a season (282) and passes attempted in a season (503). • Jason Wolf set an NCAA freshman record when he caught 61 passes in 1989. • After playing their home games in Ownby Stadium from 1926-48, the Mustangs returned their home games to the on-campus facility in 1989. SMU hosted Rice in the season opener on Sept. 2, marking the return of Mustang football to Ownby exactly 40 years and 11 months after SMU’s last game there. Record for the decade: 63-28-1
1990S
Forrest Gregg assumed the role of athletic director April 11, 1990, while announcing that he would relinquish his coaching duties following the 1990 season. Tom Rossley, who served as offensive coordinator at SMU from 1988-89, became the 13th head coach in Mustang history in December 1991. The orchestrator of the Mustangs’ run-and-shoot offense, Rossley returned to the Hilltop after one season as the quarterbacks coach of the Atlanta Falcons. The Mustangs went 5-6 in 1992 and Rossley was named Southwest Conference Co-Coach of the Year. Another significant accomplishment occurred that season when Jason Wolf ended his career with 235 receptions, making him the Southwest Conference’s career leader in that category. Mick Rossley then emerged as the Mustangs’ top receiving threat. A sure-handed receiver, Rossley broke Jerry LeVias’ school record for receptions in a season when he hauled in 83 passes in 1994. The winds of change swept across the Hilltop following the 1994 season as SMU prepared to begin its 77th and final season of play in the Southwest Conference after announcing that it would accept an invitation to join the Western Athletic Conference beginning in 1996. Coinciding with the final SWC season was the return of SMU football to the Cotton Bowl. After playing most of its home games the previous six seasons at Ownby Stadium, SMU made “The House That Doak Built” its home stadium in 1995. The Mustangs made their return a memorable one when, in the 1995 season opener against eventual SEC Western Division champion Arkansas, Wilbert Mitchell recovered a Razorback fumble on the SMU two-yard line in the game’s final minute to preserve a 17-14 win.

The Mustangs showed they could compete in the Western Athletic Conference by fashioning a 4-4 record in their new league. SMU posted a 30-0 victory at UTEP in 1996, marking the Ponies' first shutout win since 1984. The Mustangs also won at Arkansas, exploded for 52 points against New Mexico and upended crosstown rival TCU, 27-24, before a national television (ESPN) audience in the 1996 season finale at the Cotton Bowl. Mike Cavan was named the 14th head coach of the Mustangs Dec. 20, 1996. Cavan led SMU to a 6-5 overall record in 1997, marking the first winning season for the Mustangs since 1986. After a 1-4 start, SMU won five consecutive games, marking its longest winning streak in 12 years. Cavan was named the WAC Coach of the Year by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram for his efforts in 1997. Among SMU's victims in 1998 was Metroplex rival and bowl-bound TCU on "Doak Walker Day" at the Cotton Bowl. The game was played in memory of the Mustangs' greatest player, who passed away Sept. 27, 1998, at the age of 71. SMU dedicated its season to Walker, who won the 1948 Heisman Trophy. • John Stewart became the first SMU All-America selection since Reggie Dupard in 1985 when the Mustang kicker was honored following the 1993 season. A former walk-on who never had attempted a field goal or extra point prior to his senior season in 1993, Stewart converted on all 23 of his extra point attempts, as well as 13 of his 17 field goal attempts, including a 55-yarder. • Quarterback Ramon Flanigan became SMU's all-time leader in total offense (7,437 yards) and touchdowns responsible for (57) with a solid senior season in 1997. He was granted a sixth year of eligibility prior to 1997 by the NCAA. • Linebacker Chris Bordano was named the 1997 WAC Mountain Division Defensive Player of the Year after leading the team in tackles with 120. Bordano became just the 10th player in SMU history to be named all-conference three times. • In 1999, SMU great Eric Dickerson was inducted into the Professional Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, becoming the fifth Mustang to be enshrined. • Defensive end Luke Johnson recorded 11.5 sacks in 1999 while helping lead SMU to a 4-6 record, and concluded his career as the program's all-time sack leader with 23.5 sacks from 1996-99. • In 1999, the Ponies closed another chapter of Mustang football at the Cotton Bowl and prepared to move into their new on-campus home, Gerald J. Ford Stadium, in 2000. Record for the decade: 31-76-3 Record for the century: 416-403-56

The 2002 campaign was also the last for two of the best players in recent SMU history: tight end John Hampton and linebacker Vic Viloria. Hampton concluded his career as the program's all-time leader in receptions at his position with 114. Viloria was SMU's leading tackler during his final three seasons and finished his career ranked eighth on the school's all-time tackles list with 372. He earned All-WAC honors three times. The 2005 season brought a new highlight to SMU football history as the Mustangs stampeded into Conference USA. SMU finished the 2005 season with a 5-6 mark, its highest win total in eight seasons. The year was full of highlights such as SMU’s first win over a ranked team since 1986, a 3-1 record against bowl teams and a three-game win streak to end the season - SMU’s longest since 1999. In 2006, SMU increased its win total for the third straight season, posted its highest win total in a decade and reached bowl-eligibility. SMU continued to win off the field as well, as the Mustangs received the American Football Coaches Association’s 2006 Academic Achievement Award after the school recorded a 100 percent graduation rate. After a disappointing 1-11 season in 2007, Bennett was dismissed as head coach. Former National Coach of the Year June Jones was then lured away from Hawaii to coach the Mustangs, creating a sense of excitement not seen on the Hilltop in decades. Jones' first season was a record-setting one, with the Mustangs setting numerous passing and receiving marks. The 2009 season was a true breakthrough. SMU went 8-5, posting the biggest turnaround in the nation, and winning the Conference USA Western Division Co-Championship and Sheraton Hawaii Bowl. It marked SMU's first bowl berth and win in 25 years. Record for the decade: 34-84
2010S
In 2010, SMU continued its run of success, earning its second-straight bowl berth and claiming another Conference USA Western Division CoChampionship. The season saw running back Zach Line explode for an unexpected 1,494 rushing yards, which ranked 11th in the country and trailed only Eric Dickerson for most single-season rushing yards in SMU history. The 2011 season produced another eight wins and a BBVA Compass Bowl Championship as SMU thrashed Pitt, 28-6. Along the way, SMU beat rival TCU, giving the Mustangs the coveted Iron Skillet. Line was again among the national leaders before suffering a season-ending foot injury.
2000S
Sept. 2, 2000, may stand out as the most significant day in the history of the storied SMU football program. That was the date that Mustang football returned to campus with the inaugural game in $56-million Gerald J. Ford Stadium. SMU christened the facility by whipping Big 12 foe Kansas, 31-17, before a sellout crowd of 32,267. It was the first capacity home crowd for Mustang football since 1990. Former Kansas State defensive coordinator Phil Bennett was named the 15th head coach in school history Dec. 5, 2001. Bennett's first season on the Hilltop saw one of the greatest statistical rushing seasons ever produced at SMU, as junior back Keylon Kincade rushed 327 times for 1,279 yards with eight 100-yard rushing games. Kincade's attempts number was a school season record while his yardage total and number of 100-yard games ranked third on the SMU season lists.
The Mustangs made their third-straight bowl appearance following the 2011 season, winning the 2012 BBVA Compass Bowl.

BOWL GAMES 1925 DIXIE CLASSIC WEST VIRGINIA WESLEYAN 9, SMU 7
1936 ROSE BOWL STANFORD 7, SMU 0
Thanks to a 19-game unbeaten streak, the 1924 SMU football team was invited to its first postseason bowl, the 1925 Dixie Classic. The Dixie Classic was a college football bowl game played in Dallas following the 1921, 1924 and 1933 seasons. It was the precursor to the Cotton Bowl Classic, which has been played every year since 1937. The Mustangs faced West Virginia Wesleyan in the 1925 Classic on New Year’s Day at Fair Park Stadium in Dallas. The 1924 Mustangs entered the Dixie Classic with 5 wins, 0 losses and 4 ties. The SMU-West Virginia Wesleyan University game was a match-up of two schools started by the United Methodist Church. In fact, some football historians have referred to the game as the very first “Methodist Bowl.” The game was a low-scoring affair, with both teams fighting for field position. After a scoreless first half, SMU’s George Watters blocked a punt in the third quarter, which he recovered in the end zone to give SMU a 7-0 lead. WVW battled back, though, answering with a 40-yard field goal to pull to 7-3. In the fourth quarter, the Wesleyans took the lead on what the Dallas Morning News would call a "luck pass." WVW quarterback DeLong lofted a long ball which SMU's Logan Stollenwerck batted down. Unfortunately for the Mustangs, he knocked the ball directly to WVW's Gale Bullman, who raced into the end zone for a 66-yard score. The PAT, though, was missed. SMU battled back and had a field goal try in the game's final minute for the win. Lawrence Reisor's 30-yard try was no good, however, and Wesleyan prevailed 9-7, handing SMU its first loss in two years.
SMU entered the 1936 Rose Bowl as the nation’s top-ranked team, sporting a perfect 12-0 record and a defense which had shut out eight of its 12 opponents during the regular season. Led by first-year head coach Matty Bell, the Mustangs were matched against a strong Stanford team which took a 7-1 record into the game. Due to a traffic jam, the SMU team bus did not arrive at the Rose Bowl until 20 minutes prior to kickoff. Stanford quarterback Bill Paulman scored on a oneyard sneak in the first quarter to give the Indians the early lead. It proved to be the only score of the game as SMU lost its best scoring opportunity with a fumble on the Stanford 5-yard line. The loss was SMU's only blemish in its first national championship season.

The 1948 Cotton Bowl featured a matchup between two unbeaten teams in SMU and Penn State. Led by All-American Doak Walker, the Mustangs jumped ahead early. Walker tossed a 53-yard scoring pass to Paul Page and later scored on a two-yard touchdown carry. The Nittany Lions struck back when, just before halftime, Elwood Petchel connected on a 38-yard touchdown pass to Larry Cooney which cut the SMU lead to 13-7. Penn State scored the only points of the second half when Petchel threw his second scoring pass of the game on a six-yard toss to Wallace Triplett in the third quarter.

Two of the nation’s most powerful offensive teams met in the 1949 Cotton Bowl. Doak Walker and Kyle Rote led the Mustangs to their second consecutive Southwest Conference championship in 1948 while Oregon rode the right arm of quarterback Norm Van Brocklin to the Pacific Coast Conference cochampionship. The difference in the game was the use of the quick kick by SMU. Walker booted one 79 yards and Rote launched an 84-yard kick to pin the Ducks deep in their own territory. In addition to their quick kicks, the Mustangs’ star running backs each scored touchdowns to give SMU a 14-0 lead. Answering the call for the Ducks, Van Brocklin threw a 24-yard touchdown pass to Dick Wilkins early in the fourth quarter.

1966 COTTON BOWL GEORGIA 24, SMU 9
In a rematch of the 1949 Cotton Bowl, SMU entered the game with a 4-6 record and had received a Sun Bowl berth largely on the basis of its 32-28 victory over fourth-ranked Navy in the third game of the season. SMU had a talented QB duo in Danny Thomas and Mac White, and both were counted upon to rally the Ponies in the fourth quarter after falling behind 21-0. Thomas led the Mustangs on a drive which culminated in a two-yard touchdown pass to John Roderick. Later in the quarter, Roderick was on the receiving end of a seven-yard scoring pass from White to pull the Mustangs within nine points. After White ran for the twopoint conversion, SMU trailed by a touchdown, 21-14, but could not pull any closer.
After winning its first Southwest Conference crown in 18 seasons, SMU earned a trip to the Cotton Bowl to face Georgia. Kent Lawrence set the tone early for the Bulldogs when he raced 74 yards for a touchdown on the game’s second play. The sophomore running back finished the day with 149 yards rushing on 16 carries, as the Mustangs were unable to contain the Georgia ground attack. SMU cut the lead to 7-3 midway through the first quarter on Dennis Partee’s 22yard field goal. Georgia responded by scoring 10 unanswered points before Mike Richardson scored the lone SMU touchdown on a one-yard dive with 1:14 left in the first half. Leading 17-9 at halftime, Georgia shut down the SMU offense and its outstanding sophomore receiver Jerry LeVias in the second half. The only score in the final two quarters came when Bulldog fullback Ronnie Jenkins, who rushed for 88 yards on 23 carries in the game, scored on a fouryard touchdown run with 14:33 left in the game.

1968 ASTRO-BLUEBONNET BOWL SMU 28, OKLAHOMA 27
1980 HOLIDAY BOWL BYU 46, SMU 45
The 53,543 fans who gathered in the Astrodome on New Year’s Eve night for the 1968 Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl comprised what at the time was the largest crowd ever to see a football game played indoors. They also witnessed one of the most exciting college bowl games ever as SMU and Oklahoma combined to score 35 points in the fourth quarter before the game was decided. OU scored on its first possession of the game when Bob Warmack carried on a sweep to the right for an eight-yard touchdown. Warmack’s touchdown stood as the game’s only score until the third quarter when Mike Richardson scored for SMU on a one-yard dive. The Sooners retaliated by driving 80 yards and scoring on a 21-yard pass from Steve Owens to Johnny Barr. The fireworks began in the fourth quarter when SMU’s Chuck Hixson connected with Jerry LeVias for an 11-yard scoring pass to tie the game at 14-14. Richardson scored his second touchdown with 7:35 left in the contest to give the Mustangs a 21-14 lead. After OU answered with a touchdown to tie the game, SMU linebacker Bruce Portillo intercepted a Sooner pass on the OU 22. Hixson put SMU on top, 28-21, after a 19-yard pass to Ken Fleming with just three minutes remaining. After driving the length of the field, Oklahoma cut the Mustang lead to 28-27 when Barr caught a 30-yard touchdown pass from Mickey Ripley with 1:16 left. SMU held on to the lead when Ripley was stopped short of the goal line on the Sooners’ two-point conversion attempt.
The 1980 Holiday Bowl featured two teams with distinctly different offensive philosophies. SMU relied upon the running of Eric Dickerson and Craig James, while BYU boasted an explosive aerial attack led by Jim McMahon. The Mustangs jumped out of the gate early, racing to a 19-0 lead in the first quarter after touchdown runs by Dickerson and James, a safety and a 42-yard field goal by Eddie Garcia. SMU had increased its lead to 29-7 in the second quarter before BYU’s Vai Sikahema returned a punt 83 yards, pulling the Cougars within 16 at halftime. Entering the fourth quarter, SMU led 38-19, and with four minutes remaining the Mustangs held a 45-25 advantage. With his team trailing by 20, McMahon led BYU to two quick touchdowns to cut the SMU lead to 45-39. With 18 seconds remaining, BYU's Bill Schoepflin blocked Eric Kaifes’ punt to give BYU possession at the Mustang 41-yard line. After two desperation passes by McMahon fell incomplete, the Cougars had one final opportunity with just three seconds left. As time expired, McMahon found tight end Clay Brown in the end zone for a 41-yard touchdown pass, guiding BYU to one of the greatest comebacks in bowl history.

1983 COTTON BOWL SMU 7, PITTSBURGH 3
1983 SUN BOWL ALABAMA 28, SMU 7
With the temperature in the upper 30s and a light rain falling at gametime, playing conditions were anything but ideal when undefeated SMU met Pittsburgh in the 1983 Cotton Bowl. Accustomed to playing in inclement weather, Pittsburgh appeared to have the advantage in the early going, driving to the SMU 1-yard line on the game’s opening series. Panther halfback Joe McCall fumbled away Pitt’s best touchdown opportunity when Mustang safety Wes Hopkins fell on the loose ball at the 2-yard line. SMU was not able to capitalize and after two quarters neither team had scored, marking the first scoreless first half in the Cotton Bowl in 22 years. On their first possession of the second quarter, the Panthers scored the game's first points when Eric Schubert booted a 43-yard field goal. SMU responded with an 80-yard drive which resulted in Lance McIlhenny’s nine-yard touchdown scamper around right end on the third play of the fourth quarter. Following the ensuing kickoff, senior quarterback Dan Marino engineered a drive which put the Panthers in scoring position at the SMU 7-yard line. On third-andgoal, Marino threw a pass which was tipped by Hopkins and intercepted in the end zone by Blane Smith, thus ending Pittsburgh’s chance of handing SMU its only loss of the season.
SMU squared off against Alabama in the 50th Sun Bowl on a cold and windy afternoon in El Paso. The temperature at kickoff was 28 degrees, with winds gusting up to 35 miles per hour. Alabama jumped on the Mustangs in the first quarter, scoring on touchdown runs of one and 11 yards by Ricky Moore. The Crimson Tide defense forced three SMU turnovers in the first half, and Alabama was able to stretch its lead to 28-0 by halftime. Jeff Atkins helped the Mustangs get on the scoreboard early in the third quarter when he broke loose for a 58-yard run, setting up Lance McIlhenny’s 15-yard touchdown pass to Marquis Pleasant. Pleasant’s touchdown represented the only points of the second half as Alabama held on for a 28-7 victory. After giving up 303 total yards in the first half, the SMU defense limited the Crimson Tide to just 96 yards of offense in the second half.

1984 ALOHA BOWL SMU 27, NOTRE DAME 20
2009 HAWAII BOWL SMU 45, NEVADA 10
Between 1949 and 1958, SMU and Notre Dame battled each other on the gridiron eight times. When the two schools met in the 1984 Aloha Bowl, it represented their first meeting in 26 years. SMU, playing in its fourth bowl game in five seasons, scored on its first two offensive possessions. A seven-yard touchdown carry by Jeff Atkins and Don King’s 12-yard pass to Cobby Morrison gave the Mustangs a 14-0 lead. Notre Dame responded with 10 unanswered points before Brandy Brownlee connected on a 47-yard field goal to give SMU a 17-10 lead at halftime. The Fighting Irish tied the game on Mark Brooks’ 11-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, but SMU regained the lead on its next possession with Brownlee’s second field goal of the game. The Mustangs were able to work on the clock for most of the second half due to the strong running of Atkins and Reggie Dupard, each of whom ran for more than 100 yards in the contest. Dupard’s two-yard scoring run gave SMU a 10-point lead with six minutes left in the game and the Mustangs held off a late Notre Dame rally to win, 27-20.
Freshman Kyle Padron threw for an SMU-record 460 yards, leading the Mustangs to a 45-10 victory over Nevada in the Hawai’i Bowl - SMU’s first postseason appearance in 25 years. It was a triumphant return to the postseason and paradise for the Mustangs and second-year coach June Jones, who left Hawai’i after nine seasons. The 18-year-old Padron, who was 32 of 41 and completed two touchdown passes, was confident and composed on the biggest stage of his young career. The 12-point underdogs dominated from the opening bell, jumping out to a 17-0 lead in the first quarter and building a 38-0 advantage by the third. Padron had 303 yards passing in the first half alone, breaking SMU’s bowl record of 281 yards by Chuck Hixson in the 1968 Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl. Shawnbrey McNeal added 63 yards rushing and three touchdowns, including two in the first quarter. He also had seven catches for 53 yards. On the second play of the game, Padron found a wide-open Cole Beasley near midfield. Beasley was dragged down from behind at the Nevada 9 for a gain of 71 yards. It was the longest pass in SMU bowl history, breaking Doak Walker’s 53-yard pass to Paul Page in the 1948 Cotton Bowl. McNeal scored on the next play. The Mustangs got the ball back on the next series by stopping the Wolf Pack on fourth-and-two. Padron then connected with Sanders for a 58-yard gain, setting up McNeal’s 1-yard TD that put SMU up 14-0 less than 6 1/2 minutes into the game. After completing a 53-yard pass to Aldrick Robinson in the third that setup a 3-yard TD run by Zach Line, Padron looked at Jones and just shook his head in disbelief. Robinson finished with nine catches for 176 yards.

2010 ARMED FORCES BOWL ARMY 16, SMU 14
2012 BBVA COMPASS BOWL SMU 28, PITT 6
Josh McNary scooped up a fumble and returned it 55 yards for a touchdown as Army held on to beat SMU 16-14 in the Armed Forces Bowl. Army had a 16-0 halftime lead on SMU’s home field, then ran out the final four minutes after Matt Szymanksi was wide left on a 47-yard field goal attempt that would have put the Mustangs ahead. Army got the ball back with 4:05 left and quarterback Trent Steelman converted a pair of third downs. He ran for six yards on third-and-five after SMU called its final timeout, then later rolled right and threw a 22-yard pass on third-and-four for only his second completion in the game before a final kneel-down. SMU faced fourth-and-six after Padron scrambled to avoid a sack and dumped a three-yard pass to Darius Johnson. After a timeout, and coach June Jones exchanging a fist pump with Szymanski, the kick fluttered wide left.
J.J. McDermott ran and threw for first quarter touchdowns as SMU beat Pittsburgh 28-6 in the BBVA Compass Bowl. Rishaad Wimbley ran for two scores for SMU, which tied a school record by playing in its third straight bowl under coach June Jones. McDermott completed 16 of 26 passes for 239 yards and threw a touchdown to Darius Johnson early in the first. Pittsburgh was held without a first down and fell behind 21-0 in the first quarter. Kevin Harper kicked field goals of 32 and 34 yards. McDermott beat Pitt’s blitz when he lobbed a 50-yard touchdown pass to Johnson for the Mustangs’ first touchdown. Johnson had seven catches for 120 yards. The 50-yard catch was the longest in the six-year history of the bowl. After McDermott’s 1-yard run capped an eight-play drive to push the lead to 14-0, Ja’Gared Davis hit Pitt quarterback Tino Sunseri, forcing a fumble that was recovered by Taylor Reed at the Panthers’ 27. McDermott’s 19-yard pass to Cole Beasley set up Wimbley’s 2-yard touchdown run. Wimbley added a 1-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. With SMU still leading 21-3 later in the quarter, Pitt drove from its 16 to a first and goal at the Mustangs’ 10. On third down from the 5, Sunseri’s pass bounced off tailback Isaac Bennett. The deflection was caught by SMU linebacker Stephon Sanders for an interception. The half ended with Pitt again coming away with no points at the end of a long drive. Harper’s 47-yard field goal attempt hit the left upright to end a 14-play drive.

HONORED JERSEYS SMU honored the legendary Don Meredith by retiring his jersey at halftime of the SMU-Houston football game in 2008. Meredith, who wore number 17 during his playing years at SMU (1957-59), was a two-time All-America selection on the Hilltop, setting a Southwest Conference record with a 69.6 completion percentage in 1957. The Chicago Bears then selected Meredith in the third round of the 1960 NFL Draft, but traded him to a young Dallas Cowboys franchise for future draft picks. Throughout his nine-year career with the Cowboys, “Dandy” Don was one of the Cowboys’ most recognizable stars, leading his team to three straight division championships and trips to consecutive NFL Championship games following the 1966 and 1967 seasons. During the 1966 season, Meredith was named the NFL Player of the Year, throwing a career-high 24 touchdown passes that season. He was also named to the Pro Bowl that year, his first of two career Pro Bowl selections. In 1976, Meredith was inducted into the Cowboys’ “Ring Of Honor.” Following his playing days, Meredith had a successful TV career as an analyst on ABC’s “Monday Night Football.” He was known for singing “Turn out the lights, the party’s over” when the game appeared to be decided. Meredith was selected as the 2007 recipient of the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Pete Rozelle RadioTelevision Award. Meredith also had an acting career, appearing in multiple movies and television shows, including a starring role on “Police Story,” as well as a series of commercials in the 1980s.
As one of the greatest running backs in college football history, Eric Dickerson had his No. 19 SMU jersey retired Nov. 24, 2000. Dickerson earned All-America honors as a senior in 1982 when he rushed for 1,617 yards and 17 touchdowns on 232 carries (7.0 yards per carry), helping the Mustangs to an 11-0-1 record and a No. 2 finish in the final Associated Press national rankings. He finished third in the Heisman Trophy balloting that year behind Herschel Walker and John Elway as SMU captured the Southwest Conference championship and defeated Pitt, 7-3, in the Cotton Bowl. A two-time Southwest Conference Player of the Year, the Sealy, Texas, native set numerous school rushing records, including career yards (4,450), season yards (1,617 in 1982), career touchdowns (47), season touchdowns (19 in 1981) and 100-yard games (28).

Doak Walker epitomized leadership, sportsmanship, and academic and athletic achievement during his storied career at SMU in the late 1940s. Gracing the covers of numerous national magazines, “The Doaker” was a national phenomenon. The versatile Walker, who also punted, returned punts and kickoffs, and kicked extra points, earned All-America honors in 1947, 1948 and 1949. After starting as a freshman in 1945, he missed the 1946 season due to his service in the Army; however, by his junior season, his exploits on the field had become legendary, and in 1948, Walker became the first junior to win the Heisman Trophy. In addition to winning the Heisman, Walker was a consensus All-America three times and also won the Swede Nelson National Sportsmanship Award while at SMU.

An SMU leader as a student and an alumnus, Forrest Gregg saw his No. 73 jersey retired Oct. 7, 2000. Gregg was a two-way player on the Mustang football team from 1952-55. Gregg was a dominant force on both sides of the line as a collegian and earned All-SWC honors as a junior and senior in 1954 and 1955. He also served as SMU co-captain in his final year. After his career on the Hilltop concluded, Gregg moved on to a 14-year career in the National Football League. He played for the Green Bay Packers for 13 years and closed his NFL career in 1971 with the Dallas Cowboys. While with the Packers, Gregg won a pair of Super Bowl Rings in 1967 and 1968. He long held a Green Bay record by playing in 187 consecutive games, was chosen All-Pro eight straight years from 1960-67, played in nine Pro Bowls and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1977. When football returned to the Hilltop in 1989, it was natural that Gregg would play a part. He served as head coach in 1989 and 1990, and served as SMU’s athletic director (1990-94). He received the Distinguished Alumni Award in the fall of 2000. The award represents the highest honor the university and its Alumni Association can bestow upon an alumnus of the institution.

A great friend of SMU and one of its most distinguished alumni, Lamar Hunt had his No. 80 football jersey retired Sept. 23, 2000. Hunt was a member of the Mustang football team from 1952-55 and wore No. 80 as a wide receiver his senior season. After graduating from SMU with a degree in geology, Hunt had a distinguished career as a sports entrepreneur. He remains perhaps best known for helping turn professional football into America’s No. 1 sporting pastime and was credited with accidentally naming the NFL’s championship game the “Super Bowl.” He was an original organizer of the American Football League (AFL), for which the Texas Sportswriters Association named him “Southwesterner of the Year.” In 1960, Hunt founded the Dallas Texans, who later became the Kansas City Chiefs, and was a principal negotiator in the AFL/NFL merger that paved the way for much of the game’s modern growth. For all his efforts, Hunt was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1972. As a tribute to his contributions to professional football, the AFC Championship Trophy carries his name, and in 1993, the NFL gave Hunt its Lifetime Achievement Award.

One of the greatest wide receivers in National Football League history, Raymond Berry had his No. 87 SMU jersey retired Oct. 28, 2000. Berry was a two-way player who earned two letters for the Mustangs in 1953 and 1954. The Corpus Christi, Texas, native earned All-Southwest Conference honors and was an Academic All-American during his senior year. He was a 20th-round NFL Draft choice of the Baltimore Colts in 1955 and became one of the greatest draft selections in league history. Berry led the NFL in receptions in 1958, ‘59 and ‘60. He helped the Colts win the 1958 league championship by catching 12 passes for 178 yards and a touchdown in the title game. When he retired from the game after the 1967 season, Berry was the NFL’s all-time leader with 631 catches for 9,275 yards and 68 touchdowns. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1973.

MEDIA
MEDIA INFORMATION GENERAL PRACTICE REPORTING GUIDELINES
Practice Information Once granted admission to practice, SMU makes the following requirements of reporting across all media platforms (print, television, radio, online or other) mandatory. Failure to adhere to the following policies will result in the revocation of practice access. NO reporting of specific plays (trick or other), personnel groupings or special/unusual formations. This includes the reporting of individual players as part of sub packages or special formations across offense, defense and special teams. It is incumbent upon media to ask a member of the P.R. staff about any information that may be close to violating these policies BEFORE it is reported. Private Team Communication SMU asks all media to refrain from reporting and/or recording/filming any team communication meant solely for the team. This includes the post-practice team huddle, in which Coach Jones addresses his players. It also includes midpractice and/or post-practice communication between any coach and his players. In general, reporting that the conversation took place is acceptable, just not the details of those conversations. Details are not to be relayed to the public either directly (through first-hand hearing), or indirectly (through interviews, even if the subject answers the question). If media has any question as to whether communication should be kept private, please contact the P.R. department before writing or airing such conversations. Injury Information All information concerning player injuries will be issued by Head Coach June Jones.
PRACTICE ACCESS & PHOTOGRAPHY GUIDELINES
Practice Credential Information All media (news departments, etc.) must receive clearance from the public relations department before attending practice. No exceptions can be made. Practices are open to the media, but videotaping opportunities will be limited to a few periods at the beginning of practice. Boundaries All practice guests, including members of the media, must remain within the boundaries established by the team.
LIVE BLOGGING/TWITTER POLICY
SMU asks that members of the media utilizing such technology adhere to the following guidelines, similar to policies already in place: NO live reports can be filed from the practice field. NO detailed speculation as to the potential nature or severity of an injury or level of practice participation until Coach Jones has addressed it following practice. Once again, acknowledging that an injury occurred and providing general details (i.e. ‘Right leg...’ or ‘Left wrist…’) is permitted, but anything beyond that would be purely speculative and possibly inaccurate, likewise with levels of practice participation. NO entries that violate the team’s policy in regards to practice information (schemes, formations, etc.) or private team communication.
COACH & PLAYER INTERVIEWS
All interviews must be arranged through the SMU P.R. Office. During the regular season, SMU coaches and studentathletes will be available after practice (around 9 a.m.) on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. On gamedays, SMU Head Coach June Jones and select players will be available in the postgame interview room approximately 15 minutes after the game. Any requests to interview coaches and/or players other than at the aforementioned times should be directed to a member of the SMU P.R. department.
