Equinophobia - FEAR THE HORSE!

I declare that the SMU Mustangs will come back this season. I declare that our team will become competitive in and out of conference. We can make this happen. We are a tradition rich school and have great attendance for being a mediocre program in recent years. We can start packing 50k fans in our stadium once we start winning again.

Hail to the red and the blue
We’re the Mustangs from SMU.
Give a cheer, show your might,
Get the victory in sight.
For our battle cry will be:
FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!
Spirit’s the best in the land,
And right to the end we’ll stand
For the M-U-S-T-A-N-G-S!
FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

I'm down. It can be done. I will be a fan through the good and the bad.

50K LOL, you know there are Big 12 teams that can't touch that number right?

TCU does not even lie about attendance that high.

Shouldn't you be devising the game plan for the Memphis game June?

Back to SMU putting 50,000 fans in seats...I'm not sure SMU administration is ready for innovative thinking on building fan base. That's what I think is required. I ran some things by to them this past week and I think I met with death ears. I didn't feel they were interested in even thinking about change let alone 'picking up the ball and running with it'. I would like to see some well laid plans of fan growth by those in charge. But, I can't see it happening.

SMU needs a PR campaign. How about a song with a catchy beat like Blurred Lines that you can't get out of your head. Lyrics and a rap track that refer to SMU, e.g., girls on the Dallas hilltop or SMU girls or da kick [deleted] pony. Get an up and coming band/rapper to record it. A legit song that you pay to get airtime on rock stations. Make SMU a cool school. Something to overcome the perception that SMU is boring old school blue bloods.

This board is developing its own version of the Tea Party.

Neato.

Ponyboy's hero is Ted Cruz-the Man who is about to destroy the party of Lincoln. The Republicans have about 48 hours left until the Bomb goes off

I take it death ears are worse than deaf ears... :)

But I take your point

48 hours until the heroin addict throws a hissy fit and
demands more heroin be printed on the printing press?

Yes deaf ears (silly me)...but death might be more appropriate. Either way I don't think they're to the point of making a plan.
