Actually heard it was very amicable and half of what we owe him.

I hope you don't start playing better without him . Im looking forward to a blowout vs SMJ after the three-game stretch my Pirates are in the middle of lol.

I hear that Skip Holtz is available! :D

JUNE JONES RESIGNS SMU COACHING JOB--June had felt for some time he had accomplished mission to turn around program and needed a break.

Someone who knows how to do the Photoshop should graft June Jones' head atop George W. Bush's in the Mission Accomplished photo.

Congrats SMU, nothing better than getting rid of dead weight. It always seemed to me June wanted to coach SMU from Hawaii.

For years? He was hired in 2008.

He was almost hired at Arizona State after the 2011 season, in such a way that a lot of SMU fans never forgave him.

He no longer has the edge he used to, and got complacent. Easy wins for CUSA this year. Might help some other teams get to bowl games?

Who's on deck SMU???? Inquiring minds want to know.

He was just tired of coaching "fall ball". If SMU and the rest of the American were playing "spring ball", June would've stayed until the day he kicked the bucket.

Congratulations SMU Fans. The process of rebuilding starts now. Now its up the AD to make a bang with a hire.

I hear that Lou Holtz's son can be bought of his contract and love Texas brisket. Might be a good fit.....

Seriously....I know how you guys feel when a program killer is relieved of his duties.
