His vertical leap is a negative number and his true weight is 137. Listed as a "project". Parents were both under 5' tall but did each weigh over 350 lbs. so there is hope for a weight gain spurt.

Don't get too excited. He is in marketing.

A good marketing expert will always "Tell them what they want to hear".

This might sound like a negative post, but in all actuality, it is positive. Sweet is a good marketing guy, that is why he said what he said. His blog was light, entertaining, pro ponyfans and made you feel good. This is good marketing, and I am sure glad to see it. Can't wait for some real SMU marketing to hit the streets, and I am expecting Sweet to get 'er done.

I fly his old planes to the games.

By the way, I got my marketing degree from SMU so hopefully I understand something about it too. :lol:

Well at least we know someone in the athletic department is hearing our opinions...good and bad. That is good. Hopefully he shares what he reads with others in the department and that some if not all of our dreams for SMU athletics will come true as a result.

BOO!!! What is with the bad puns lately?

That was a paraphrase from his blog, not a pun. Or not one that I made purposely anyway. Anyway, I don't get it--do tell.

You've always been off-track. :wink:

BTW, I just noticed you have quite a few more post than me now. I remember when you didn't want anything to do with Ponyfans because you had to register...man once you got here you took to the site like a duck to water. Guess the registration issue went away, huh? 8)

I'm an SMU junkie. Mustang Maniacs went away, and all that was left was the sunshine board. Got to get my fix where I can.

The registration issue did go away, I guess. So did a lot of the sunshine.

But you always have a seat on the 50 yard line. That should bring you a little sunshine right there.
