I guess, as long as you have a student ID I suppose. That is one good deal.

Cool promo. Hell, they should do this for football games too

WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH OUR ATHLETICS MARKETING DEPARTMENT?!

They are getting kind of innovative aren't they.

Isn't is incredible that SMU can be so proactive, smart, engaging, and cutting edge in basketball and be completely blind, ignorant, and flat out evasive in football? Do they not see how each program is trending?

Rick Hart is a fantastic marketer

It boggles the mind

That promo is better than any promo run from 1995 - 2012. I have zero authority to rest the argument on, but it is nonetheless. Bang up job SMU.

good promo. fill those seats students and get rowdy early

Hey but everyone bash Rick Hart, right?

I think Rick had some good football ideas as well- the $19.83 ticket promo for the Rutgers game with the throwback jerseys, free admission for anyone who braved the elements at the UCF game, etc. Football is an uphill climb because of competition for entertainment on Saturday afternoons in DFW and even if we drew a sellout crowd at Moody into Ford it would be 1/4 full. I've never understood the disdain some on PF have for Rick- marketing and in-game presentation have improved 5,000x since he came on board

Because he makes excuses for our lazy ax coach and doesn't hold him to any kind of a standard while full embracing Junes excuses for why we suck

But let's not derail this thread cause In-n-out, that's what a hamburger's, all about.

Also, you gotta try their animal fries if you haven't.

I've never understood people bashing Hart. The bashing is a direct result of wins/losses it seems

You're wrong if you think Rick got his way re: June. At SMU, that call isn't one that the expert in athletics gets to make.

And In-N-Out is good.
