It would be nice to see/hear LB on the TV/radio this coming week. I know Norm or the Hardline would love to have him on for a segment. Also, it 'd be great to see a few billboards around the city. We've got our best athletic team in 30 years, we need to let DFW know. Get the buzz started!

Agreed. I'm a little surprised. And I haven't been able to find any intro videos yet.

I might have to come up for the Arky game.

Saw him on FOX 4 several times last week feeding the students in line for tickets donuts. He was very happy to see the students interest in the program.

Trying to sell tickets for football. Non-issue for hoops.

more from a branding standpoint I would think. The digital billboards can't be too expensive.
Of course, season tix are sold out.

Yes, it's more about branding. Pushing people to watch SMU basketball on TV. Like TCU is currently doing with football. If you want to get a P5 conference's attention, start pulling a decent number in the DFW market. It would be very smart of SMU to get on the digital billboards the day of each game advertising the opponent, time and whatever ESPN channel the game is on.
