Really?
Mike Doocy just quoted Bennett on his sports cast. First its funny he said computer but the internet was a useful tool by 2007-wasn't it. Wait that means he never read our bitchin' on ponyfans. Damn

We had streams going by 2005.
That's pretty remarkable if true.

In 96 we had to buy Ethernet cards to plug in to the dorms so the Internet was in play in his day.
JJ had a hard time with transparencies and passwords, so this new regime will be sooooo refreshing.

I discovered mustangmaniacs while in LA and I thought it was the coolest thing ever.

The real question is did PB turn on an overhead projector while at SMU.

Yes. It is the same one that has been in the department for years. Matty Bell used it.

What's a "computer"? Is it like an iPad?

It's not that unreasonable I guess.
There was no twitter, I think at that point facebook was still limited to students. Yeah, he would have had email but I'm sure he had an assistant who could handle that for him. PCs at the time would not have been very good at handling game film.

Take a trip back in time to Mustang Maniacs in 2000...takes some time to load - just like back in 2000...
http://web.archive.org/web/19991012165450/http://www.mustangmaniacs.com/There is a story on front page about SMU being left out of CUSA.
Analysis of Signing Day 2000 can be found here:

A lot of similar names to this board - but a few ones that have disappeared along the way - Anyone remember Paul Hugg, Rich Alum, Prof X,
