TCU projected to reach playoff on some projections

Have to pay attention to someone who says he graduated from High School with a 4.0 grade average. High point in life, up to this moment, I guess.

i hope you didn't actually graduate from SMU bc you're lack of reading comprehension and ability to articulate anything supported with actual facts is just baffling.

You prefer someone to pay attention to someone who misrepresents reality? I corrected you on your false statements and blatantly false stats.

If you want to get personal, that's fine. I like intellectual debates. But I'm certainly not expecting one from you.

Very funny to piggyback off of a lame attempt at flaming. But then again you never provided much original context except your endless rambling and blatant animosity towards SMU and its alums.

Try looking at the root of the problem and see how you like that diagnosis.

[quote="redpony"]Koehler also played a major role in strengthening the management and effectiveness of TCU athletics, almost unheard of among university academic officers. When the Southwest Conference disbanded in 1995, he was a leader in charting a plan to revitalize the athletic program, hiring key administrators and helping attract top-notch coaches.

Wait....someone had a plan?!? Who the hell came up with that zany idea and how did it not get them fired?!?

In the meantime, we took the Pye route which still has us in the 50's ranking with TCU and Baylor rapidly closing in...while we remain stuck at 58

Shhhhhh......blasphemy

And the most frustrating thing is that the TCU president who hired (promoted) fatterson and believed they should put more emphasis on fball is an SMU graduate. How ironic!

Michael R. Ferrari (TCU Chancellor 1998-2003)
Undergrad: Michigan State
Graduate: Michigan State

Victor J. Boschini (TCU Chancellor- 2003-present))
Undergrad: Mount Union College
Graduate: Bowling Green, Indiana University

TCU has never had a Chancellor that was an SMU graduate.

Sadly, your post wasn't any more inaccurate than many others in this thread.

[redpony]

OK- purple fuggie- he is some info for you. I was incorrect that I called him the president. Perhaps you need to go back to remedial reading. I don't believe I ever said he was Chancellor.

Bill Koehler- He was the first Provost.
Here is some info from a TCU mag about his retirement etc.

Koehler also played a major role in strengthening the management and effectiveness of TCU athletics, almost unheard of among university academic officers. When the Southwest Conference disbanded in 1995, he was a leader in charting a plan to revitalize the athletic program, hiring key administrators and helping attract top-notch coaches.

"We have some outstanding administrators and coaches because Bill Koehler had a vision of a nationally respected Division I-A athletics program and worked to fulfill it," says Athletics Director Eric Hyman.

Koehler was the bridge between the academic and athletic communities. "TCU doesn't have two campuses -- one for athletics and one for academics," Munson says. "We have one campus. That's special. Not everybody has that, and Bill Koehler accomplished that."

Timeline of Dr. Koehler’s career
• 1960: Graduated from Southern Methodist University
• 1962: Received M.S. degree in physical chemistry from SMU
• 1968: Earned Ph.D. in inorganic chemistry from UT-Austin
• 1969: Joined TCU faculty as an assistant professor of chemistry
• 1976: Became director of TCU’s Office of Research and Sponsored Projects
• 1977: Promoted to Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research
• 1980: President of the TCU Research Foundation
• 1980: Became the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs
• 1994: Added title of Provost

I for one AM happy for the frogs.

Me too NavyCrimson...
in fact I hope TCU wins the National Championship
as a big ole F-YOU to all the excuse makers at SMU

The Metroplex already has the Cowboys
The Metroplex already has the Mavs
The Metroplex already has the Rangers
The Metroplex has too many other entertainment outlets
A small private school can't really compete
Too small of an alumni base....
blah blah blah blah

GO TCU! (except when they play SMU)

I hate to admit it, but I have to agree.

Sounds about right.

I respect the froggies for what they have done and have accomplished. They did it the hard way and was not given a free pass like that school in wac-hole. However it will be a cold day in hell when I ever root for them.

We have found a point of agreement.
