Thank you June Jones

On Glanville going to Portland State:

"If it had been somewhere else but Portland State, I probably would have never even given him a recommendation. I would have said, 'You don't want to go there.' But when he said, 'Portland,' I knew that it may be Portland State's last hurrah.

"As I told Teri Mariani, the athletic director, I said, 'You need to hire him. He'll bring Mouse back. He'll save the program.'

"That's what's happening. I can see it already. They get more newspaper time than Oregon and Oregon State in the Oregonian."

On losing close friends Glanville and Davis:

"No question, the last two years were the most fun I ever had coaching. ... Just their personality. It was fun to come to work every day. We laughed. We had fun. Get your job done, work hard, and have fun doing it. That's what makes life good."

We owe Junes Jones big time. The program was static and that's not good. Glanville and Davis will bring it to a new, higher level. These are exciting times to be a Viking fan.

You've got that right.

For once, I can't wait for summer to get over.

If U guys want to make it up to us win the National championship and your confrence so you guys can replace Utah st. in the WAC.

Now that's a great scenario. I would love for PSU to be in the WAC, but a lot needs to be done before that can occur. I hope Glanville can get us there, or at least sets the ground work. Go Viks! /users/31/07/37/smiles/595146.gif

We would love to have Portland State join the WAC. I think PSU is already better than a couple teams in the WAC. Good luck to ya'll and have an excellent season. We'll definitely be following your progress here in the islands. /users/31/07/37/smiles/595146.gif

I think PSU could kick Idaho and Utah st's ass right now at their place or at portland.
