Isn't this supposed to be a TOS to SMU thread? I guess traditions do unfortunately die.

Nonetheless, will be interesting to see the NCAA posse on this one

Good Call. I'd forgotten about that in my haste. What if the job is already filled by the associate head coach? (credit to Jeff McKinney on that thought)

Gotta give TOS a fighting chance to apply for every job. I mean we all can't get to the CIT and proceed to leave for a better job after all.....

TOS in a 10-gallon hat.

Hate to see Larry Brown's career end this way (assuming at age 75 he doesn't try to get another job in college or pro...of course, the NCAA may put out a "show cause" that will keep him out of college coaching.).

Wonder how personally involved he was in shady activities at SMU? But, even if it was a staffer, he has responsibility for oversight of these matters. Still, he's been a brilliant coach and it's a shame to see this happen.
