At least it is not an open bar tab at Ozona's, right.

Someone should call. My biggest (and only) concern is that I don't care to contribute to an awesome $5k YouTube video...how will it be used???

Put it on a video billboard outside Froggy High's stadium.

Athletic marketing department?! Is that a joke? I was unaware we had one.

Pretty sure that's the point. Marketing department was nuked a few years ago. I assume that was written with tongue planted firmly in cheek.

If we do this, let's do it right. I see no way with the steps that need to be taken that even someone skilled like Thad has anything available for UTEP. Perhaps later in the year, but it would not disappoint me if we did a serious Ponyfans fund raising and try to get to higher level than $5,000 and get a product that will have people buzzing even if not ready until next season.

Just my thoughts. As I have already said, when the green light is given by the athletic department, I am in, but I think genius may take more time than we would like.

Nick,

I guess you missed my previous post on this. In that post I wanted to be sure to credit you and thank for for getting this whole thing started. I did hear back from Tim on Sat. He is traveling so will get back with me when he gets back.

Additionally, I heard back from Brad Sutton as well (On Sunday no less). I did not have a chance to visit with him today, but will try tomorrow. I will give give an update as soon as I have some more info.

Thanks again.

Jimbo, that looks a great tool. We may have some options with the University, but not the Mustang Club, since those funds must be unrestricted. I will know more in a few days. Depending on what info I receive from Tim, we may take advantage of that site. Thanks for the link.

You've got me for $100. But has anyone contacted Ray Washburne or one of those guys with real money? Then again, I really wouldn't want a Mi Cocina ad smack dab in the middle of the thing.
