And speaking of SMU, according to a report published by Bill Embody of ON3, SMU is firmly in the mix to join the Pac-12 at some point in the future, once the media rights deal and final decisions on expansion are wrapped up.
Once that contract is completed, expansion is expected to occur and the expectation is an invitation will head the school’s way. A couple industry sources did confirm that SMU remains in good position to be included in expansion, along with San Diego State.
Smart move, start young, coaches son I think.. Coaches pay is great nowadays, he already overcame the hardest part which is get your foot in the door, now its time to learn and grind..
My son actually just had the opportunity to attend an SMU camp. Rhett Lashlee spoke to all the kids at the end and we could have sworn that DK met up with him afterwards. I think this is awesome and wish nothing but the best for DK moving forward.
He's got his foot in the door in what I feel will be a long and successful career. He's one of the good guys and I'm thrilled that he's getting a shot!
I joked at the very beginning of last season that, based on the one drive during the Spring game a couple years ago, Mario should have taken King as OC over Gattis.
In time, I think that might turn out to have been a lucky guess.
