Re: Earrrrrrrrrrrly preview

I knew Fast Eddie wasnt going to like this one.

I wonder what fast ed would do to this guy who ranked us 111, if we locked them both in a room and gave ed a rubber hose?

ed feel free to give us some details.

Re: Marketing and Sales Update

there is only so much a mrkting department can do to put people in the seats, it's really up to the teams to produce on the field/court first. only then will the mrking department have a message to get out to the ...

Re: Schedule is terrible next season!!!

we get enough cupcakes in the wac, we need the tough out of conf. teams on our schedule.

as for a bowl bid, there is no way smu will ever go to a bowl with the current setup in the wac. our 3 bowls (hawaii, boise, and silicon valley, which i think will be gone next year) would probley cancel ...

throwing in the towl on smu athletics

somethings have finally sunk into my head after years of denial and false hope.

1. we're in the wac
2. we're never going to get out of the wac (unless it folds)
3. our football will never be very good again
4. our basketball has never been very good, and never will be. (in my opinion good ...

Re: SMU vs WF

holy mother of god!!!!!!! what was that??

it use to be that during football season we could say, "at least we have basketball" but i guess those days are gone now too. i would say "at least we have soccer," but i'm afraid that would most likely send them to a similar fate.

maybe we should move ...

Re: A message to Copeland...

i agree dement hasnt done [deleted] with this program in the last few years, its certainly in worse shape than it was 4 years ago, and the decline is showing no signs of slowing down. i just hope that copeland doesnt let dement run the bball program into the ground like he let cavan do to the ...

dement

does anyone know if dement's job is on the line this year? i know copeland has extremely low expectations for his coaches so he's probley waiting for dement to have another 4 or 5 unsuccessfull campaines before thinking about a change.

while it takes time to develop a football team (although not ...

Re: read this splendid article

nice article rogers, but who picked smu to finish 2nd in the wac? officially i believe they were picked to finish 6th in the wac media guide, while cnnsi picks them to finish 4th.

its not like you to lie rogers, wait, yes it is. (just joking)

Re: The WAC

just reading on espn.com about the wac bowl situation.

it looks like if boise st. gets a better bowl bid than their own humanitarian bowl they wont even accept it, bc the only way the bowl can succeed is if they are in it.

while the the silicon valley bowl hosted by fresno st. might not even ...

Re: Bennett

PK, if they were playing over their heads we wouldnt have the 117 ranked offense in the country, we wouldnt be ranked 114 overall, and we wouldnt be last in the wac. looks to me like they are simply playing the game, i wouldnt say they deserve any pat on the back for over overachievement this season ...

Wow PK, if a lot of our players are playing "over their head" then i guess it really doesnt matter what bennett does b/c these guys really have no business playing d1a football. if you have to play "over your head" in order to go 1-9 in the wac conf. then maybe we need to step back and take a ...

Bennett

nothing new here, but just wanted to express by extreme disappointment with coach bennett's coaching decisions this year.

i personally thought that his decision not to even give bartel a shot at qb until they were something like 0-7 (including the 45-0 halftime osu game) was the worst coaching ...
