JMU's Smith Carson returns to Furman

Congratulations to (former) JMU assistant and Ladyswish Twitter follower Jackie Smith Carson, who on Tuesday was introduced as the new head coach at her alma mater, Furman. Smith Carson will no doubt be a popular choice on the Greenville, S.C. campus - the former two-time Southern Conference Player of the Year finished her career as one of the most decorated athletes in the school's history. And she definitely takes a nice picture. It's just too bad she's out of eligibility - the Paladins finished 7-24 last season and have lost at least 20 games in four of the last five seasons. Here's hoping coach Smith Carson can recruit a couple of budding Smith Carsons - although there aren't many of those running around.
