GERALD J. FORD STADIUM In the history of the SMU football program, June 13, 1997, and Sept. 2, 2000, may stand out as the most significant days since the program’s inception in 1915. The first date is when University officials announced that significant funds had been raised to begin construction on the brand new Gerald J. Ford Stadium. The second is the date that Mustang football returned to campus with the inaugural game in the stadium against Kansas. The state-of-the-art facility would not have been possible without the generous donations of Gerald J. Ford, Lamar and Norma Hunt, Ray L. and Nancy Ann Hunt, and Sherrill and Jo Ann Pettus, all of whom are SMU alumni. Gerald J. Ford Stadium, finished in August of 2000 on the former Ownby Stadium grounds, has a horseshoe configuration with an open south end zone adjacent to Mockingbird Lane. The architecture is consistent with the Collegiate-Georgian style of the entire SMU campus and features traditional, yet state-of-the-art design concepts. The stadium has a seating capacity of 32,000 with the possibility for future expansion to 45,000. The 32,000-seat configuration includes nearly 600 preferred club level seats and 240 seats in 24 spacious luxury suites housed in a custom, three-level press box. In addition to housing preferred club and suite seating, the air-conditioned press box provides excellent sightlines and comfortably accommodates more than 125 working print, radio and television media. The playing surface is 25 feet below ground level, with half of the stadium’s seats sunk below grade, ensuring a smooth transition into the surrounding neighborhood and the remainder of the SMU campus. Ford Stadium was designed by the sports and entertainment design division of Ellerbe Becket, Inc., an architectural firm based in Kansas City, Mo.

GAMEDAY AT SMU From pregame "Boulevarding" to the postgame celebration of an SMU win, nothing compares to the pageantry and excitement of Mustang football on the Hilltop. On a warm Saturday night in September or crisp day in November, fall Saturdays in Dallas mean only one thing - SMU football in Gerald J. Ford Stadium. Kickoff may be in the afternoon or evening but gameday on campus is an all-day affair on The Boulevard. Bishop Boulevard, which runs through the heart of the beautiful SMU campus, turns into a hub of activity for alumni, students, fans and friends of the school. Groups can bring a picnic, ďŹ re up a grill for a barbecue or visit food vendors that are stationed along The Boulevard. Local and regional bands play live music and there are activities for children as well. As tailgating festivities wind down, fans join in the Mustang Band's Grand March to Ford Stadium. Forty-ďŹ ve minutes before kickoff, the band marches from Dallas Hall down Bishop Boulevard, turns left on Schlegel Street and heads into Ford Stadium. SMU home games have an all-day collegiate atmosphere as fans rekindle old relationships and establish new ones. By combining a great tradition with a new stadium and The Boulevard, SMU football has established itself as THE way to spend a Saturday in Dallas.

1935 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS G 12-1 DICKINSON & HOULGATE SYSTEMS BIG GAME BREAKDOWN MUSTANGS TOP HORNED FROGS EN ROUTE TO 1935 NATIONAL TITLE Fort Worth - The SMU Mustangs improved to 11-0 with a 20-14 win over second-ranked TCU before more than 40,000 fans on Saturday, Nov. 30, 1935. The win snapped TCU's 10-game win streak and ended the Frogs' bid for the Rose Bowl. SMU moved one step closer to the Pasedena-based contest, a Southwest Conference title and a National Championship. SMU opened the scoring midway through the first quarter when Bob Finley plunged in from one yard out. Mustang kicker Maurice Orr added the extra point and SMU held the early 7-0 lead. SMU stretched the lead to 14-0 early in the second quarter when Bobby Wilson scampered in from 14 yards out for the score. Orr's PAT gave the Ponies the two-TD edge just over one quarter into the game. After two TCU scores knotted the game at 1414 with eight minutes to play, the stage was set for SMU's dramatic win. Wilson returned the kickoff to the SMU 40-yard line and after two carries the Mustangs had the ball at midfield. Following a three-yard carry by Shelly Burt, Finley heaved a 47-yard scoring pass to a leaping Wilson amid a group of Horned Frog defenders. Orr missed the point-after, but the game ended when TCU's drive stalled at the SMU 35 and the Ponies had held on for the win.

ABOUT THE DICKINSON & HOULGATE SYSTEMS The Dickinson System (1926-40) is a mathematical point system devised by Frank Dickinson, a professor of economics at Illinois. The annual Dickinson ratings were emblematic of the national championship and the basis for awarding the Rissman National Trophy and the Knute K. Rockne Intercollegiate Memorial Trophy. The Houlgate System (1927-58) is a mathematical rating system developed by Deke Houlgate of Los Angeles, Calif. His ratings were syndicated in newspapers and published in Illustrated Football and the Football Thesaurus.
1981 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS G 10-1 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP FOUNDATION BIG GAME BREAKDOWN MUSTANGS RALLY WITH 20-POINT FOURTH QUARTER TO CLINCH SWC CROWN AT ARKANSAS Fayetteville - SMU finished the regular season 10-1 and clinched the 1981 Southwest Conference championship with a thrilling come-from-behind victory over Arkansas in the final game of the season on Nov. 21. With the Pony Express held in check for most of the game, the Mustangs managed only one touchdown - a Russ Washington 10-yard interception return - to go along with two Eddie Garcia field goals through three quarters of play.
12
Trailing 18-12 entering the fourth quarter, SMU tied the game at 18 with 7:41 remaining on another Garcia field goal. On the ensuing Razorback possession, SMU’s Eric Ferguson jumped in front of a Brad Taylor pass and returned it inside the Arkansas 20. The Ponies only needed two Craig James runs to score the go-ahead touchdown with 6:30 remaining. Following the kickoff, the Mustang defense held again and forced an Arkansas punt with 3:49 remaining and SMU wanting a score to seal the victory. Eric Dickerson delivered with 27 seconds left, when he scampered 31 yards for the touchdown to give SMU the 32-18 win. Dickerson and James each ran for more than 100 yards in the contest and Dickerson set an SMU record with his 19th touchdown on the season.

1982 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS G 11-0-1 HELMS ATHLETIC FOUNDATION BIG GAME BREAKDOWN MCILHENNY MANEUVERS MUSTANGS TO 7-3 COTTON BOWL WIN OVER MARINO’S PANTHERS Dallas - With the temperature in the upper 30s and a light rain falling at game time, 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 nineyard touchdown scamper around right end on the third play of the fourth quarter. Following the ensuing kickoff, Pitt quarterback Dan Marino engineered a drive which put the Panthers in scoring position at the SMU seven. On thirdand-goal, 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 and giving SMU its third national title.

ABOUT THE HELMS ATHLETIC FOUNDATION The Helms Athletic Foundation (1941-82) was established by the founding sponsor, Paul H. Helms, Los Angeles sportsman and philanthropist. After Helms’ death in 1957, United Savings & Loan became its benefactor during 1970-72. A merger of United Savings and Citizen Savings was completed in 1973, and the Athletic Foundation became known as Citizens Savings Athletic Foundation. In 1982, First Interstate Bank assumed sponsorship for its final rankings. Thereafter, Schroeder, who died in 1988, then chose, with the assistance of a Hall Board, the annual national champion after the bowl games.

With the arrival of June Jones, SMU may need to install a red carpet in the Mustang locker room as SMU has become “the place to be” in Dallas. Among the celebrities, Mustang legends, pros and former pros that have attended practice or stopped by the stadium are: Former President George W. Bush, Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman, Daryl “Moose” Johnston, Terrell Owens, Jeff George, Reggie Dupard, Eric Dickerson, Craig James, Jerry Ball, Devin Hester and Deion Sanders. The positive energy permeates the entire campus. SMU recently launched the largest fund-raising effort in its history – The Second Century Campaign. With a goal of propelling SMU to a new level of excellence regionally, nationally and globally, the University is well on its way to its goal of $750 million. SMU Athletics is in a construction boom of its own, having embarked on a $60 million plan to build new facilities and improve existing ones. Football office renovations are being completed for the 2009 season, the $13-million, 43,000 square-foot Crum Basketball Center, a basketball-only practice facility adjacent to Moody Coliseum, opened in February 2008 and the Turpin Tennis Stadium opened in April 2008. Ground has also been broken for the SMU Payne Stewart Golf Learning Center and renovations to Moody Coliseum, which began in 2008 with the installation of a new $900,000 videoboard and redesigned court, continue.

HERITAGE HALL Along with Gerald J. Ford Stadium and the Paul B. Loyd All-Sports Center, SMU’s Heritage Hall opened its doors in September 2000 as a lasting monument to the athletic excellence and tradition at SMU. The 3,000 square foot exhibit highlights the accomplishments and personalities of SMU players and coaches ranging from the Mustangs’ first football coach, Ray Morrison, to Heisman Trophy winner Doak Walker, to the swimming dynasties of Red Barr and George McMillion. A 1928 leather football helmet, a football-shaped train menu from the Mustangs’ journey to Pasadena for the 1936 Rose Bowl game and one of golfer Payne Stewart’s 7-irons are among the artifacts displayed in the museum. Items such as photographs, uniforms, trophies, newspaper and magazine clippings, game programs, and jewelry tell the stories of various eras in SMU sports. In addition, there are six 16-foot banners in the Loyd Center atrium honoring SMU’s National Championship teams, while the perimeter displays focus on different sports and historical events, including SMU's 1956 Final Four appearance. These displays capture the spirit of sport and present the vitality of the on-going programs, teams and traditions of Mustang athletics. 17
"It is the goal of the SMU Strength & Conditioning program to help each student-athlete reach his/her full athletic potential by providing him/her with training programs that are scientifically-based and founded on modern methods of strength & conditioning. Our motto as a strength & conditioning staff is simple, 'Stay in the Eye of the Storm.' The most fundamental and important aspect of the SMU strength & conditioning program is that our coaches will always be on the floor coaching athletes. No athlete is left to train on his or her own. Every workout, every exercise, every set and every rep will be monitored by a coach. The coach will teach, instruct, provide feedback and motivate the student-athlete. The objective of the SMU strength & conditioning staff is not only to produce stronger, better conditioned student-athletes, but also to build discipline and mental toughness in each student-athlete through the implementation of a very structured and organized environment. Student-athletes are held accountable for the commitment and effort that they put into the program, and lifting and conditioning must be viewed as a vital element in the training program for student-athletes of any sport. The SMU strength & conditioning staff also plays a major role in the nutritional counseling and the implementation of healthy diets for each of our student-athletes. Our staff is responsible for selecting NCAA-approved supplements that we deem the most beneficial to our student-athletes. On a daily basis, our strength & conditioning coaches weigh-in student-athletes to help monitor changes in bodyweight that may be associated with dehydration, illness, skipping meals, overeating, eating junk foods, etc. This is all done in an effort to help our student-athletes reach his or her ideal playing weight and to keep energy levels high and hydration levels sufficient."
VIC VILORIA, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach

With attention to detail including customized iron grip weights emblazoned with the Mustang logo, the Salvino Strength and Conditioning Center services over 500 athletes and 17 sports. Much of SMU’s program is based on the Hatch Training System, which was developed by Olympic coach and USA Strength & Conditioning Hall of Famer Gayle Hatch. The system focuses on explosive strength training and factors in explosive power, absolute strength, muscular endurance, speed, quickness, flexibility, agility and cardiovascular fitness.

SMU assistant coach and coaching legend Frank Gansz passed away on April 27, 2009. He was 70. “Frank has been a second father to me for the past 30 years and he has touched the lives of many, both at SMU and throughout the National Football League,” said SMU Head Coach June Jones. “I was lucky to have known Frank, and not only was he a wonderful person, but he was a father to everyone he has ever coached. He will live on with us. My team will miss him as a coach and mentor, but most of all, I will miss him as my best friend.” Considered perhaps the top special teams coach in the history of the NFL, Gansz was starting his second season on the Hilltop. Gansz was a veteran of 38 seasons of coaching - 24 in the NFL and 14 in the collegiate ranks. “While we were only blessed with Frank’s presence here on the Hilltop for 14 months, SMU is a better place because of his time here,” said SMU Director of Athletics Steve Orsini. “We will miss him.” Prior to coming to SMU in 2008, Gansz was with the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he was special teams coordinator in 2000 and 2001. Prior to his time with the Jags, he served as the special teams coach of the St. Louis Rams for three seasons, helping the team to its victory in Super Bowl XXXIV. In 1986, Gansz’s first year as the assistant head coach/special teams for Kansas City, the Chiefs blocked or deflected an NFLrecord 10 kicks and scored five touchdowns. Because of his success with the special teams, Gansz was promoted to head coach of the Chiefs, a role he served from 1987 to 1988.
74
He left the Chiefs to become the special teams coach of the Detroit Lions from 1989 to 1993, a period in which Mel Gray developed into the NFL’s all-time leader in combined kick return yardage. In 1989, Gansz was named NFL Special Teams Coach of the Year by his peers. Gansz then spent three years as the assistant head coach/special teams for the Atlanta Falcons from 1994 to 1996. Gansz’s NFL career began in 1978 as special teams coach for the San Francisco 49ers. He coached special teams and tight ends for Cincinnati (1979-80), Kansas City (1981-82) and Philadelphia (1983-85). After serving as a pilot in the U.S. Air Force for nearly seven years, Gansz began his coaching career at the Air Force Academy (1964-66). He also had coaching stints at Colgate (1968), Navy (1969-72), Oklahoma State (1973, 1975), Army (1974) and UCLA (1976-77). Born November 22, 1938, in Altoona, Pa., Gansz attended Taylor-Allerdice High in Pittsburgh, and was inducted into the Western Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame. He played center and linebacker for the Naval Academy from 1957 to 1959 and graduated in 1960. Gansz is survived by his wife, Barbara, and two children, Frank Jr., an assistant coach at UCLA, and Jennifer. “I remember the first day Coach Gansz spoke to the team. He stressed being a successful ‘man’ - not just a football player, but a man. He knew that every player’s dream is to go to the league, but he also knew the reality of the matter. Not everyone goes to the league, and he stressed the importance of good men in society - doctors, lawyers, pastors and businessmen. They’re all needed and they all make a difference. He stressed the importance of making a difference and I can tell you this – Coach Gansz made a difference.” - Kelvin Beachum “He was the finest football coach I ever worked with. The quality of the human being matched his coaching skills. His vibrancy will live forever in the people that he touched.” - Dick Vermeil

JUNE JONES Head Coach Second Season New York State Regents College June Jones is in his second season on the Hilltop after nine years at Hawaii, where he resurrected a downtrodden Warrior football program to make it one of the most exciting and competitive squads in the country. In a little over a year at the Mustang helm, Jones has transformed the SMU football program. After installing his Run-and-Shoot offense, the SMU offense took off in 2008, as the Mustangs finished the season ranked 17th in the nation in passing offense despite starting a true freshman at quarterback. The Mustang QBs combined to throw for a school-record-tying 29 touchdowns and two receivers combined for over 2,000 receiving yards and 20 TDs. On the heels of the season, Jones and his staff put together their second-straight stellar recruiting class in February 2009. The class included eight three- or four-star Rivals.com recruits, equaling the number of such recruits in the 2007 and 2008 classes combined. Football analysts took notice. Of the Mustangs, Jeremy Crabtree, Rivals.com’s national recruiting editor, wrote, “They are undoubtedly headed in the right direction and received commitments from individuals who had Big 12, SEC and Pac 10 offers. The influence of June Jones after just one full year is very obvious.” Bill Conley of Scouts, Inc., added, “This could be the surprise class of the nonBCS schools...”. A former National Coach of the Year, 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. SMU Director of Athletics Steve Orsini, who led the search for the Mustangs’ coach, said Jones has the mix of experience, expertise and credibility SMU needs. “As a head coach, June Jones excels at building football programs and SMU is committed to rebuilding its football program” Orsini said. “I truly believe that we will be successful in reaching our goals with Coach Jones as our leader.” 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.
76
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 on Feb. 22, 2001, that nearly claimed his life. 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. 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 wild-card 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 “SMU has a great coach in June Jones. He knows football and more importantly, he’s fair. We developed a special bond when he was my head coach. I’m looking forward to watching the Mustangs play, because I know they’ll win.” - Junior Seau, NFL Linebacker, Nine-time All-Pro, 12-time Pro Bowl Selection “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 “June Jones is the right man to make SMU a real football program… Jones’ presence has energized SMU.” - Jean-Jacques Taylor, The Dallas Morning News “SMU Athletic Director Steve Orsini made a hire that was more than worth the wait...

TOM MASON Defensive Coordinator Second Season Eastern Washington Tom Mason joined the SMU coaching staff after spending seven seasons at Fresno State, where he coached linebackers. While at Fresno, Mason developed numerous standout line backers 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 (199396). 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.

DAN MORRISON Assistant Head Coach/Offense Second Season UCLA Dan Morrison is in his second season at SMU after spending nine seasons as quarterbacks coach for Hawaii. 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, 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. 79
JOE HAERING Linebackers First Season Bucknell Joe Haering enters his first season as SMU’s linebackers coach after spending the last 12 seasons with the Buffalo Bills, where he served as a college scout. 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.

From 2001 until 2005, Hill worked in private business in Dallas and coauthored several books on the discipline of strength and conditioning. From 1990-2000, Hill was on the staff of the Detroit Lions. During his first eight years with the club, he served as strength and conditioning/assistant defensive line coach.

Klemm was the 46th overall selection in the 2000 NFL Draft after a standout career as a four-year starter at Hawaii. He played under Jones during his senior season (1999), and was a part of the biggest turnaround in NCAA history, as Hawaii improved from 0-12 to 9-4, and won a bowl game that season. Following the season, Klemm was selected as the starting left tackle at the Senior Bowl and also earned invitations to the East-West Shrine Game and the Hula Bowl. “I’m happy that we were able to hire a talented, up-and-coming coach like Adrian,” said Jones. “Adrian was a positive, impact player and I know he will be a positive, impact coach. Having played in the NFL, he knows what it takes to get to the next level and he will relate well to our young players.”

DERRICK ODUM Secondary Second Season Utah Derrick Odum is in his second year in the Lone Star state after spending three years at Utah, where he coached the Ute safeties. Odum coaches the Mustang secondary, working with the cornerbacks and safeties. At Utah, Odum tutored a defense that finished number one in the nation in pass efficiency defense and fifth in the country in scoring defense in 2007. 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. His off-field duties included serving as the team’s pro liaison. Odum’s first full-time coaching opportunity was with the defensive backs at Montana from 1998-99.

From there, he went to Utah State (2000-02) where he spearheaded a 25place improvement in pass defense. The Aggies placed second in the Big West Conference in interceptions his first year there. Odum spent the summer of 2002 interning with the Tennessee Titans, working with their defensive backs and linebackers. He left Utah State to coach the defensive backs at Houston, where he stayed from 2003-04. The secondary accounted for 13 of Houston’s 14 total interceptions in 2003 and Odum produced a Conference USA All-Freshman team selection both years.

2008 GAME RECAPS Game 1 • Rice 56, SMU 27 Aug. 29, 2008 • Rice Stadium • Houston, Texas
Chase Clement threw six touchdown passes - three to Jarett Dillard - to lead Rice to a 56-27 victory over SMU. Clement was 24-of-37 for 258 yards, helping the Owls overcome an early 13-point deficit. Clement added 87 yards rushing on 13 carries. Dillard caught seven passes for 89 yards, including scores of 21, 9 and 8 yards. The Owls defense also got in on the act, as Andrew Sendejo returned an interception of Bo Levi Mitchell 55 yards for a touchdown. Rice forced two fumbles and had three interceptions. Mitchell, a true freshman, was 25-of-43 for 244 yards and three touchdowns. He helped the Mustangs to a 13-0 lead in the first 13 minutes, hitting Aldrick Robinson and Bradley Haynes with 26- and 19-yard touchdown passes. Mitchell hit Emmanuel Sanders with a 22-yard touchdown on the third play of the second half to make it 28-20, but that was as close as the Mustangs would get. The Owls added three scores in the next 97 seconds to take a 49-20 lead. Scoring Summary SMU Rice 1st 10:55 2:00 0:52 0:00 2nd 9:11 4:26 3rd 13:57 9:08 8:41 7:31 0:33 4th 2:10

touchdown passes of 21, 8 and 35 yards in the first half alone. Aldrick Robinson also had a 32-yarder mixed in as SMU went up 30-6 in the second quarter. But Texas State scored with 2 seconds left in the half and kept inching closer. The Bobcats cut it to 40-29 in the fourth quarter on Cameron Luke’s third touchdown catch. Then it was Mitchell’s turn again. Facing third-and-9 from his 29, the true freshman hit Sanders for 24 yards, then hit Robinson in the end zone from the 34. Texas State scored again with 2:41 left, but Sanders snagged an onside kick attempt. The Mustangs drove just shy of the goal line but opted to take a knee rather than trying to crack 50 points. Mitchell was 24-of-37 for 370 yards. Robinson had 172 yards receiving and Sanders had 138, each with eight receptions.

Game 2 • SMU 47, Texas State 36 Sept. 6, 2008 • Gerald F. Ford Stadium • Dallas, Texas
Bo Levi Mitchell threw five touchdown passes and SMU beat Texas State 47-36, ending an 11-game losing streak and making coach June Jones a winner in his first home game. Jones is the first SMU coach to win a home opener since Bobby Collins in 1982. Offense is Jones’ specialty, and his touch was evident from the start, with Mitchell and Emmanuel Sanders hooking up for

Graham Harrell threw for five touchdowns to help No. 12 Texas Tech top SMU 43-7. SMU fell behind early after the Mustangs turned the ball over on three of their first four possessions. Bo Levi Mitchell drove the Mustangs to the Red Raiders’ 26 and 1 in the first half, but came away empty. Mitchell, who was 13-of-24 for 155 yards, found his greatest success through the air to Emmanuel Sanders. Sanders caught eight passes for 125 yards. It was his fourth-straight game going back to last season in which he had at least eight catches and 100-plus yards. Mitchell went out midway through the third quarter and was replaced by Logan Turner, who threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Aldrick Robinson late in the fourth quarter for the Mustangs’ lone score.

Kevin Moore passed for three touchdowns and Andre Anderson ran for 219 yards and a score, leading Tulane to a 34-27 victory over SMU. June Jones’ spread offense continues to be a work in progress at SMU, but showed promise in spurts. Bo Levi Mitchell was 21-of-44 for 256 yards and three TDs. Tulane gave SMU hope with a pair of turnovers in the third quarter. Kasey Stelly’s fumble, recovered by Derrius Bell on the Tulane 33, set up Thomas Morstead’s 25-yard field goal. The Green Wave then drove to the SMU 18, only to turn the ball over again when Moore’s first-down pass was intercepted by Justin Smart and returned 35 yards to the SMU 45. That led to Morstead’s 49-yard field goal. Facing fourth-and-3 on the Tulane 31 on its next series, SMU converted when Mitchell found Emmanuel Sanders for a 13-yard gain. Mitchell went right back to Sanders on the next play for an 18-yard score that pulled the Mustangs to 31-20 early in the fourth quarter. Tulane managed only Ross Thevenot’s 33-yard field goal in the second half, which gave the Green Wave a 34-20 lead with about four minutes to go. Mitchell’s 13-yard touchdown pass to Terrance Wilkerson pulled SMU to 34-27 with 2:03 left. SMU then chose to kick deep, but couldn’t stop Anderson, whose 40-yard run to the SMU 42 on the second play of Tulane’s final drive sealed the victory. Scoring Summary SMU Tulane

2008 GAME RECAPS Mitchell’s 77-yard touchdown pass to Emmanuel Sanders had given the Mustangs a 31-24
Game 6 • UCF 31, SMU 17 Oct. 4, 2008 • Brighthouse Networks Stadium • Orlando, Fla.
lead. The Mustangs drove to the TU 26 in the final minute. Mitchell threw toward an open Cole Beasley in the end zone, but Beasley dropped the pass that would have given SMU the lead. Mitchell’s fourth-and-2 pass was just beyond the outstretched hands of Sanders, and Tulsa got the ball back on downs and ran out the final seconds.
Despite 351 yards passing from Bo Levi Mitchell, SMU was unable to overtake UCF, falling 31-17. UCF’s Michael Greco took over for starter Rob Calabrese at the start of the second half and engineered three scoring drives to break a 10-10 halftime tie. He hit Brian Watters with a 56-yard scoring pass in the third quarter and then sealed the game with a 15-yard strike to Khymest Williams with 1:34 left in the fourth. SMU receiver Aldrick Robinson had 10 catches for a career-high 210 yards, including a 94-yard scoring pass from Mitchell that drew the Mustangs within 24-17 with 13 minutes left in the game. The Mustangs could not convert an onside kick attempt on the ensuing kickoff and UCF put the game away when Greco found Williams in the end zone with 1:34 remaining in the game. Mitchell finished the game, going 29 of 45 for 351 yards a touchdown. The teams traded field goals and long scoring drives in a first half that ended 10-10. SMU’s Andrew McKinney bulled in from 1 yard out to finish off a 77-yard drive and Thomas Morestead booted a 33-yard field goal to give the Mustangs a 10-3 first-quarter lead.

Case Keenum threw a 26-yard touchdown pass to Tyron Carrier with 24 seconds left as Houston rallied to beat SMU 44-38. Houston trailed 35-23 heading into the fourth quarter before engineering a comeback. Trailing 38-36, the Cougars got the ball at their own 15 with 1:58 left. Keenum capped the comeback with a TD pass to Carrier, who made a nice over-the-shoulder catch in the end zone. Bo Levi Mitchell was 29-of-39 for 365 yards and four touchdowns, and Aldrick Robinson had 186 yards receiving and two touchdowns for the Mustangs. Keenum’s 9-yard touchdown run brought the Cougars within 35-30 early in the fourth. After an SMU field goal, Beall scored on a 1-yard run but Houston’s two-point conversion attempt to tie the game failed. The Mustangs were forced to punt on their next possession, setting up the Cougars’ game-winning drive. Mitchell’s desperation pass from near midfield on the final play of the game was intercepted. SMU jumped out to a 21-7 lead thanks to Mitchell’s first TD run of the season and two scoring passes to Emmanuel Sanders, who set the SMU school record with 26 touchdown receptions. The Cougars crept within 21-17 early in the third. Mitchell tossed a pair of touchdown passes to Robinson, including a 70-yarder on the final play of the third quarter to extend SMU’s lead to 35-23.

Ricky Dobbs ran for 224 yards and four touchdowns on 42 carries as Navy bettered SMU, 34-7, on Oct. 25. The game was played in a downpour, and the second half was played before a crowd of just several thousand. Dobbs, a third-string quarterback, replaced Jarod Bryant, who injured his right shoulder on a 20-yard run in the first quarter, and quickly directed the Midshipmen to two touchdowns on runs of 2 and 5 yards. He carried the ball on his first eight plays. Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo reinserted Bryant early in the second quarter, but he was hurt again six plays later. Dobbs returned and two plays later ran for 38 yards, and scored from a yard out on the next play. He added a 7-yard run early in the fourth quarter. SMU, which began the game 11th in the nation in passing, averaging 302 yards per game, was held to 144 yards - 27 in the second half - and trailed 27-0 at halftime. Bo Levi Mitchell, the Mustangs’ freshman quarterback, had a pass intercepted by the Mids’ Jeff Deliz in the first half. He’s had 19 passes picked - most in the nation. Mitchell, who threw four touchdown passes in each of his last two games, was 16-for-28 for 157 yards.

RETIRED JERSEYS The 2000 football season saw SMU honor five former Mustang greats by retiring their jerseys. Pro Football Hall of Famers Lamar Hunt, Forrest Gregg, Raymond Berry, Doak Walker and Eric Dickerson were honored. Hunt (No. 80) played wide receiver at SMU from 1952-55 and was the owner of the Kansas City Chiefs. Gregg (No. 73) was a two-way standout on the Hilltop from 1952-55 and went onto a 14-year NFL career in which he won two Super Bowl rings. Berry (No. 87) was a Mustang wide receiver in 1953 and 1954 who became one of the greatest pass catchers in NFL history. Walker (No. 37), the greatest player in SMU history, became the first junior to ever win the Heisman Trophy in 1948. Dickerson (No. 19) finished third in the 1982 Heisman Trophy balloting and is the program's all-time leading rusher with 4,450 yards. Don Meredith's No. 17 jersey was retired in 2008. Meredith was a two-time All-America selection (1958 & 1959) on the Hilltop, setting a Southwest Conference record with 69.6 completion percentage in 1957.

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 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, a tri-captain and fullback on the 1935 team, 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
SMU & Stanford fans packed the 1936 Rose Bowl.
Matty Bell led SMU to the 1935 National Title and later coached Doak Walker to the Heisman Trophy.
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-America 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 All-America 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-America following the 1950 season. As the Walker-Rote era came to an end, so began a new era 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-America in 1958 and 1959 and his .610 career completion percentage is the greatest of any passer in Mustang history. One of his greatest 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 .653 winning percentage both rank second all-time among 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.
144
• 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
John Roderick (23) scored twice in SMU's upset of fourth-ranked Navy in 1963.
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-America and Academic All-America. 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 of 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-America and Academic All-America 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
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. Under Hayden Fry, Chuck Hixson set numerous records on the Hilltop.

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
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-Americas 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 over 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 taking over as 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
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.

1990s
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
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.
Emmanuel Sanders was named to The Sporting News' Freshman All-America squad in 2006.
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 like 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. The 2006 season showcased a bright future for SMU football. The Mustangs increased their win total for the third straight season, posted their highest win total in a decade and reached bowl-eligibility. SMU student-athletes filled a Conference USA-high six spots on the All-Freshman team and SMU also placed the record-setting pair of quarterback Justin Willis and wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders on The Sporting News’ Freshman All-America squad. 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. 147

SMU entered the 1936 Rose Bowl as the nation’s topranked 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 one-yard 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. SMU Stanford

The 1948 Cotton Bowl featured a matchup between two unbeaten teams in SMU and Penn State. Led by All-America 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. The Nittany Lions, however, missed the extra point, and the game ended in a 13-13 tie.

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. SMU put the game away just three minutes later when Chicken Roberts scored on an eight-yard run to push the lead to 21-6.
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 two-point 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 four-yard touchdown run with 14:33 left in the game.
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.

1983 COTTON BOWL SMU 7, PITTSBURGH 3
San Diego, Calif. December 19, 1980
Dallas, Texas January 1, 1983
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.
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 2yard 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.

1983 SUN BOWL ALABAMA 28, SMU 7
1984 ALOHA BOWL SMU 27, NOTRE DAME 20
El Paso, Texas December 24, 1983
Honolulu, Hawaii December 28, 1984
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.
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.

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 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-ofthe-Year, the Sealy, Texas, native owns 14 school rushing records, including career yards (4,450), season yards (1,617 in 1982), career touchdowns (47), season touchdowns (19 in 1981) and 100yard 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.
A Southern Methodist University 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 of the 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 Southern Methodist University 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-ound 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.

SMU student-athletes excel in the classroom, as a remarkable 96 percent of the scholarship studentathletes who entered SMU between 1993 and 2003 and exhausted their eligibility at SMU earned degrees. Football student-athletes play a big part of SMU’s academic success, as 26 players made the Conference USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll and three won Commissioner’s Academic Medals in 2008-09. In addition, SMU's Mitch Enright and Pete Fleps were selected to the 14-man C-USA All-Academic Team and Enright and Thomas Morstead made the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District Football Team.

As a team, SMU won the American Football Coaches Association’s 2006 Academic Achievement Award (right) after recording a 100 percent graduation rate. Although it was the Mustangs’ first win, SMU has been named to the honorable mention category 11 times. School-wide, six of SMU’s athletic programs scored a perfect 100 percent in the NCAA Graduation Success Rates (GSR), and all 15 of SMU’s programs rated by the NCAA were equal to or better than the national average.

SMU ADMINISTRATION STEVE ORSINI Director of Athletics
Arriving on the Hilltop with over 25 years of experience in athletic administration, Steve Orsini began his tenure as the Director of Athletics at SMU on June 1, 2006. A little over three years into his tenure, Orsini has created a tremendous sense of excitement for SMU fans. Orsini made an immediate impact by hiring 2001 Associated Press National Coach of the Year Matt Doherty to lead the Mustang men’s basketball program even before his first “official” day on the job. In January 2008, Orsini brought a new spark to the SMU football program, hiring former National Coach of the Year June Jones to lead the Mustangs. SMU is one of just seven schools nationally to have National Coaches of the Year at the helms of its football and men’s basketball programs. Mustang teams won five conference championships in 2008-09, and in addition to their successes on the field, SMU student-athletes also succeeded in the classroom. SMU continues to boast a remarkable 96 percent refined graduation rate and 209 student-athletes were named to the Conference USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll. SMU is also seeing a construction boom under Orsini. SMU has embarked on a $60 million plan to build new facilities and improve existing ones. The $13-million, 43,000 square-foot Crum Basketball Center, a basketball-only practice facility adjacent to Moody Coliseum, opened in February 2008 and the Turpin Tennis Stadium opened in April 2008. Ground has been broken for the SMU Payne Stewart Golf Learning Center and renovations to Moody Coliseum, which began in 2008 with the installation of a new $900,000 videoboard and redesigned court, continue. These facility projects and the hiring of June Jones have been made possible through Orsini’s fundraising prowess. 2008-09 was SMU’s best fundraising year to date, as the Mustangs added over $4.5 million to the coffers in annual gifts. To land Jones, Orsini convinced over 20 donors to join his creation, “The Circle of Champions,” and commit $100,000 a year for five years, giving SMU the ability to compete financially with top-25 institutions. “I am here because SMU has a very successful program and is committed to providing all of the ingredients to build upon that success into greater success,” said Orsini. “We can be successful on a national level. My philosophy on how to have fun in athletics is spelled W-I-N. Our goal in every sport is to be in the top 25 in the nation - and for the ones that already are, I want them to be in the top 10. Collegiate athletics can excite the whole community, build school spirit and really create a sense of community.” Orsini came to SMU from the University of Central Florida, where he served as A.D. since June 2002. At UCF, he helped transform UCF into a top athletic program. He guided the Knights to Conference USA membership and established the UCF Athletics Association, Inc., a private, non-profit, direct-support organization of the University of Central Florida. As part of a 70 percent increase in the department’s budget during his tenure, Orsini increased funding for all sports while at UCF and the Knights achieved immediate success under his leadership. During the 2004-05 academic year, six UCF teams advanced to NCAA play, including the men’s basketball squad, which made its second consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament. Competing in their last season in the Atlantic Sun Conference, the Knights swept the league’s all-sports awards, given to the top program in the conference, for the third straight year. UCF followed that up by advancing to the inaugural Conference USA Football Championship Game and its first-ever bowl appearance in the fall of 2005 after winning the C-USA Eastern Division crown. In all, 25 teams competed in postseason play during his time at UCF, and the Knights posted their highest-ever NACDA Cup finishes in 2003-04 and 2004-05.
Orsini’s tenure at UCF was marked by growth. He oversaw major facility additions and renovations at UCF, including the completion of the Wayne Densch Sports Center and the Nicholson Fieldhouse, two of the top athletic facilities in the nation. He also initiated plans and secured financing for a new on-campus football stadium, a softball stadium complex, a rowing boathouse and a convocation center and arena as part of a $270 million mixed-use development - all of which opened in 2007. Orsini expanded the Golden Knight fan base, with UCF setting all-time records in football season ticket sales and in revenues generated through ticket sales, corporate sponsorships and fundraising. He also saw UCF set attendance records for football and men’s and women’s basketball contests. Prior to his appointment at UCF, Orsini spent three years as senior associate director of athletics at Georgia Tech. In that capacity he was responsible for administration and business affairs for the Yellow Jackets. He played a pivotal role in the expansion of the football and baseball stadiums and also served as the tournament manager for the 2002 NCAA Final Four in the Georgia Dome. Orsini, 51, joined the Georgia Tech staff after five years as the Associate Athletics Director and Treasurer at the U.S. Naval Academy Athletic Association. A native of Hummelstown, Pa., Orsini graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 1978 with a degree in Business Administration, majoring in accounting. He was a three-time letter winner at fullback on the Fighting Irish football team and was one of four team captains on the 1977 national championship squad. After graduation, he spent three years as Senior Assistant Accountant and became a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) in the New York office of the national accounting firm Deloitte, Haskins and Sells. He began his career in athletics administration in 1981 as Assistant Business Manager and Ticket Manager at Notre Dame and remained in that capacity for three years until leaving to join the Dallas Cowboys as ticket manager in 1984. He became Director of Administration for the Cowboys in 1989, serving in that capacity until 1993 when he went back into private business as the Sales Controller for Fujitsu-ICL Systems, Inc. in Dallas.
