The Ben Hicks to Hogs thread locked & moved

[Webmaster]

Not sure why the thread was moved. My apologies to anyone this inconvenienced.

I can assure you that PonyFans is the very definition of a non-profit organization. We're hoping that with the Ponies solidly in the Top 25 this season, we may have a shot at paying off Steve's bar tab at Snuffers.

Maybe Ben Hicks and Kapernick can hold workouts together.

His knack for throwing to the other team and the exact wrong moment will not impress NFL scouts.

Do pick-6s count as negative YAC?

Thanks for stepping up to the plate. How about, you combine the responses on this thread, with the original post and reinstate on the football thread. That sounds fair to me.

He said he went to Arkansas to better prepare himself for the NFL. I do not see that happening but I think he will go wherever he can to try out. Then maybe reality kicks in. Of course I always said Banjo was too small for the NFL so my logic is tainted.

Hicks should have taken the McCown route and dropped to FCS where he could have had a stellar final season and maybe been invited to try out somewhere. If Gilbert is struggling to play professionally, I give Hicks very little hope. If he was more mobile, maybe he could go to CFL?

I will never understand the unrelenting obsession with Chad and Hicks while we're in the midst of our best season in decades.

Because some of us can handle more than one thing at a time.

I don't care one bit about Hicks but it was thoroughly enjoyable seeing Chad get what he [deleted] deserves!

Not because of how he left or flirted with other schools, but because he is a fraud and totally incompetent as a D1 head coach.

1. It had long since lost any relevant tie to SMU football.
2. It was moved to Around the Hilltop — feel free to weigh in there.

PF - Another silly stunt ! No wonder you have lost so many fans !

But Ben Hicks isn't around the hilltop....

Thank goodness!

This guy wins!

Reverse click!

Even though I posted in it, I agree with Pony Prides decision. Is a bad look.

Correct......Obviously the readers and people posting, would disagree with "relevant" comment. The deciding what was "relevant" for us, and the gradual sneaking the post under the rug, is what has bothered me. Intentionally locking and pushing it to the middle of the page, (hoping nobody would notice)...then, less than a day later, moving it to page 2, even though it was getting current responses....once again, hoping no one notices. I certainly like Ponypride and Webmaster personally, and it's obvious by my post count, and not to mention, the high volume of threads I bring to this board, that I enjoy and appreciate Ponyfans...but, I do not appreciate the #fakenews tactics.

Alex you are the greatest ever!
