'You got to think outside the box' -- How Chad Morris uses his math degree to give SMU an edge

UNIVERSITY PARK -- Chad Morris enters the Hall of Champions at Gerald J. Ford Stadium dressed in a navy, plaid jacket, a pair of glasses in his hand. As he sits at the podium for his weekly press conference, he puts on the rectangular spectacles to read his notes off a college-rule manila folder. If you didn't know better, you might think he was a Dedman College professor who lost his way on campus.

The handwritten notes are full of stats and figures that Morris believes can tell the story of SMU's previous game and its upcoming opponent.
