Re: What's with the power outages?

I think you are being way to harsh on the students (although they might need the pacifier for other things). the first messages from the university were to get out of the dorms, without telling the students where they should go. only hours later were they told to go to the towers or to the ...

Re: What's with the power outages?

Related question: what in the world is wrong with the parents of these kids?? Heard about the outage on Facebook last night, and by the response from these helicopter parents you would have thought SMU dropped their poor, defenseless children in the middle of the jungle with no food, no clothes and ...

Re: Semi Testing the NBA Waters (Did not hire agent)

do not fret

I don't think anyone is fretting. I hope he does well. Are you saying do not fret because you think he will do badly or something so that he will come back to SMU?

I think he's assuming that people on ponyfans seeing the words "Semi" and "draft" in the same sentence will go into ...

An interesting read, but do the Green Meanies really think Jank is going to take a 60+% paycut to go coach a crappy team in freaking DENTON just for nostalgia's sake? I love some people's delusions; they help reaffirm my sense of mental stability.

Re: @Houston bigger than Cincy Game

A loss to Tulane would certainly be worse than a Houston loss.
Ding ding ding, we have a winner! In my mind, we're on the back half of a double-sided trap: first was overlooking Temple in anticipation of High Noon with Cincy (OK, 3pm but you get the point); we navigated that pretty well. Now, you ...

Re: Top 25

Still no SMU in his Top 25, is this a joke?

Wow. I hate Oregon but now I hate them even more!

FWIW, here's his "explanation": I think SMU is awfully close, though I didn't technically drop them, as I didn't have them ranked last week.

But, I just need to see a bit more -- which I know to ...

Re: The Big 12 Board Just Slapped Baylor

Makes you wonder if this exasperates the divisions in the Big 12 - even though the Big 12 is only temporarily withholding the money - it still must put a strain on Baylor's budget. Baylor has zero leverage, but there has to be lots of behind the scenes wheeling and dealing power plays.

Isn't this ...

Re: UH Official: Briles Not on Interview List

Speaking of Fertitta, someone really should tell him to keep his mouth shut:
The school is looking to fill after Tom Herman left for the University of Texas after two years and a 22-4 record as head coach of the Coogs. Herman is the third coach to have a winning record with the school to jump to a ...

To be fair, he did rebuild the program; they just conveniently left off the part where he nuked it back to square one on his way out the door.

Re: Chad to Baylor a done deal..

As many have posted before, losing HCCM is a Cadillac problem. We haven't lost a coach to another school in over 30 years.... He will be leaving us on the upswing, we pay top $ AAC salaries, we have a competent AD, (three things we haven't had until HCCM) so we should be able to identify and ...
