Sold out season ticket allotment. They should be thinking of expanding to 70,000 as soon as possible

Maybe you can formalize your allegiance and buy two.

Wouldn't it be better to talk about this on a Texas Tech message board?

Our magic number is 45K, an expanded Ford as a result of the reemergence of SMU Football.

Fill Ford!!!

I came to the wrong fan forum. :? I thought I was on Ponyfans, not texastechfans.com. Hmmmmmmm.

Seriously, Stallion why do you do this? I think you're great on here and you know more about the game than a lot of people on here. Why tell us that Tech needs to expand their stadium. :?

Yeah, we'd probably only fill that two or three times a year. :?

But the plans are in place (along with our, IMO, longshot plan of 40,000 students by 2020)...

"Seriously, Stallion why do you do this?"

It's simply a way for him to indirectly take a shot at SMU. He made some comment several days ago about how SMU would need to upgrade to a Big 12 quality stadium. Heck our stadium is nicer and newer than most Big 12 stadiums, smaller yes, but better quality. Stallion wants to highlight that Tech's stadium is full and ours is empty. Stallion wants to highlight Tech's season tickets are sold out and of course SMU's are not. (yet). Any chance to point out a negative about SMU. Hey the guy is smart, and knows lots of facts, and is finally coming around a bit, joining the Mustang Club, but he just sometimes enjoys being an SMU KillJoy. For what reason only he knows.

and filling Ford stadium, then he wouldnt have as

much to complain about.

True, but sometime it doesnt sound like it.
