SMU AD Orsini's past to collide with present
Steve Orsini watched from Arkansas State's press box as Central Florida, his former school, gave powerhouse Texas trouble on national television. It was Sept. 15, and a large, delighted crowd turned out to celebrate the opening of UCF's on-campus Bright House Networks Stadium, a project Orsini helped make happen.
But when the SMU athletic director turned from the TV to the field, the contrast couldn't have been more obvious.
His current school fell, 45-28, on a miserable night in Jonesboro, Ark. It was the start of the Mustangs' ongoing, eight-game losing streak and would lead to the end of Phil Bennett's tenure as coach.
One couldn't help but wonder what was going through Orsini's mind.
