SMU getting transfer?

[SMU Football Blog]

Hell may have froze.

Even in Junior College the athletes got to get their classes before anyone else. that way we could go to class and not miss practice.

Not the same but SMU should give athletes the best chance to earn a degree intheir desired major.

SMU has had priority registration for athletes for a while. I think it was changed near the end of the Cavan regime.

Does SMU have a degree in Management?

Does SMU have a degree in Management?

In 1972 I got a General Business Degree "With Emphasis" in Marketing and Management. The "With Emphasis" replaced the term "Major". I do not know if that is still in effect or not. But supposedly one of my "majors" was Management.

LB nice to see that someone your age can use a computer.

SMU does offer a degree in Management. Good news for recruits who want to do whatever LB does.

In 1971 we had a one week course in those new things called computers. There was one large one (about the size of a Tahoe) in the Cox Building. We were required to run a punch card program. About 200 of us lined up while a Bill Gateish kid sat at the machine and for $5.00 kicked out a punch card for us to turn in. I predicted then that they would never catch on and I stand by it.

Did you walk 10 miles to school through the snow?

Seriously LB did you play FB then? Were you any good? Did you start?

I ask these questions so I can use them against you later.

The current Management degree is a stepped up version of the "Organizational Behavior & Business Policy" degree of the late 1980s to 2000s. They changed it for obvious reasons...the name was stupid. You could informally pick a strategic management track or the human resources track, or that is at least what they called it back then. I took the strategic managment track of classes.

I was fifth runner up for the Heisman 1971. (This worked well in the bars until the advent of the internet. Damn that Gore.)

Actually, I captained our Freshman team but was injured coming out of my redshirt year and ended up coaching the redshirts my last 2 years. Hayden maintained my scholarship (I was on a year to year) as he promised he would if anything were to happen. Without injury, I was to have been backup to Sherwood Blount starting out my redshirt soph. year.

not true. just changed last year. priorty registration is a means to allow the team to practice together...as a team.

anyone recall the 5-6 Rossley season where Brannon Kidd (center) and Flanigan fumbled against UH in the cotton bowl at least 3 times - Kidd didn't practice the the team every day because of this crap.

We lost.

I think it costs you games here and there. Finally, the fixed it.

We had priority registration when I was there. (68-72)

LB you and I played exactly the same amount of minutes for our alma mater. I'm glad to hear that Hayden honored your scholarship. I would have run you off. A friend of mine spoke with Sherwood the other day. They didn't talk about football. My friend is not much of a football fan but he knew that name. Sherwood is apparently quite a character.

Did Sherwood offer your friend an unscrupulous under-the-table payment at their meeting? Was Bill Clements lurking about in the shadows?

[Nacho]

About a year ago I saw the illustrious Mr Clements myself. He looks to be in fine shape and as happy as a clam.

Wouldn't be the person who makes the payment - not the payment itself - that is unscrupulous?

Well of course he is, he's not the one who got hurt in that scandal, he was just a principal cause of it.
