Saddened to hear the news of the passing of Coach June Jones.
I had the privilege of working alongside June during his first two years at SMU before transitioning to TCU.
June loved the Lord, and he saw coaching as his mission field. His purpose went far beyond winning football e an impact in the lives of young men that would last long after their playing days were over.
I’ll never forget his first team meeting with the SMU football team. At the end of the meeting, June played a video of Wintley Phipps sharing the powerful story behind the hymn Amazing Grace.
Phipps talked about John Newton, a former slave-ship captain whose life was transformed by the gospel and who later wrote the words to Amazing Grace. He also shared the possibility that the melody had roots in the sorrow songs of enslaved Africans.
June used that video to share how the same gospel, the message of Jesus Christ, had transformed his own life.
What a powerful way to begin his time at SMU! He was letting those young men and coaches know from day one what mattered most to him and why he did what he did.
June was a great football coach, but what I appreciated most was his heart for the Lord and his desire to impact lives beyond the game.
Thankful I had the opportunity to work alongside one of the greats. While saddened by his passing, I find joy in knowing that his faith was rooted in Jesus Christ and that he is now home with the Lord.
Rest well, Coach June. Thank you for the impact you made on so many lives. Praying for his family and all those who loved him.

Had two tough losses to start district. But we keep moving forward and focus on attacking the next team. Prepping for a very explosive game against Vandergrift!
