UNIVERSITY PARK, Texas — Tim Jankovich has had a tough week.
It started with a once-in-a-hundred-year snowstorm that paralyzed the city of Dallas.
That, in it of itself, was enough to set off a chain of events that had Jankovich simultaneously scrambling to find food for his players and getting a crash course in plumbing. Electricity went out, pipes went dormant and games were postponed.
“You haven’t really lived until it all goes dark when the sun goes down,” Jankovich said on Monday, trying to make light of the rolling power outages that forced SMU to postpone its Wednesday game against Tulane.
