Under Jones we're 0-5 against service academies and have been outscored 140-93.

I was worn out after the Maryland situation in 2010 and then the ASU fiasco this year. However, I'm not writing the checks and he's still here, and I want 7-9 wins in 2012 with more in attendance. Go June!

Don't have the answer but I do my part and attend the majority of the games. If I am unable to attend, my tickets are used by someone else.

Because nobody goes to a football game to stadium watch. Joe schmo is far more likely to watch a BUS level team play LSU in a UofH level dump than watch a .500 CUSA team play an opponent they've never heard if in Ford.

By watching the SEMO game -- especially in that sequence between the 17-12 minute marks of the second half -- it just appeared that this group was really more comfortable doing the pick and roll and dribble drive.

Wasn't that time we had Nyuk, Williams, Giles, Smith and Manuel on the floor? Little help on that one.

That's an easy question to answer...what other "game" in town does San Antonio have going on right now? Other than the Spurs, San Antonio has nothing else going on, so why not go to a football game, especially when it's the only game of its kind in town during football season? They had buzz by 1)being a new kid on the block and 2)bringing something that none of the other schools in SA can bring...a D-I program.

Plus its a gigantic school with a billion alumni, most of which don't go to far from home.

It's a double header, I will suspect the Baylor vs Miss State will be a better game overall.

Its a mystery - especially since having a coverup murder. They play the AAU game and grey area very well. Drew has them as a top program. Pretty amazing.
