Rumor

Postby ponyte » Wed Apr 22, 2015 8:45 am

Just heard from my daughter in Dallas the the DMN had a story about SMU renovating Ford and adding an IPF. Any information on theses alleged improvements? Thanks

I spoke directly with Hart about it. If you want the story you have to come back and take me to the FB games.

Or if you will scan down a bit you will find all the info. Bottom line is that it will happen in the near future.

The line "with Board approval" always makes me a little nervous considering how much money has been mentioned; although, if someone (or a couple someones) have already agreed to write the lead check, I don't see why there would be an objection. Sorry, too much positive energy from HCCM and Co coming too fast; my mind needs some time to recalibrate to good news that's not bball related.

sounds good but I already thought the offices where in the NW section of the building ? NE doesn't have anything that I can think of. But I do like the Party Deck. Sign me up already.

I am starting to get the impression this will all happen a bit sooner than it would have about a month ago.

Would probably have happened long ago if JJ was as brave as the tennis coaches are in regards to street crossing.

Chad Morris said from the git-go that we MUST pony up $$$ to get in the game. I'm pretty sure he meant business. I imagine he got some assurances before he signed on.

Probably not an issue getting board approval when they will be the ones paying for it.

I also would not rule out some corporate sponsorship of some of this stuff - its time for us to embrace corporate Dallas in these athletic facilities, plus it shows a P-5 that we can deliver some Dallas corporate dough. ATT practice facility has a nice ring to it.

Speaking of rumors, the sports world is blowing up with rumors in the last hour. The Twitter world we live in today.....

Nothing I like better than a Pony Fans post with the word "Rumor" in the subject line.

Rumor has it, June has asked SMU for his 2004 Handycam back. He says that he was offended that HCCM said it was dated. I mean it records straight to a DVD for pete's sake.

Honestly, they should probably give it back to him.

Considering SMU'S policy of getting 80% before a shovel goes in the ground, I don't see this happening that quickly. Hope I'm wrong.
