I saw SMU play at Navy twice in the 90's, it was a great experience!

If that passes, and most folks think it will, then a major private fund-raising phase will begin. There will be several construction phases, the first a new baseball/softball complex to replace the less that high school quality facility we have now, along with Bobcat Stadium build up and finally an overhaul of Strahan Collesium, the 7400 seat basketball/volleyball arena.
There are several reasons this is being done but in my opinion the main reason is UTSA's move to create a Division 1 FBS program in the next 7 to 10 years. If that happens before Texas State moved to FBS then the university never will and our recruiting will be severely limited, cutting off a lot of talent from San Antonio and the RGV that might come to Texas State.
I'm not ready to take my winter parka out of storage just yet...there's a LOT that still would have to happen before the Bob Kitties were granted Div. 1 FBS status.

Besides we did get to play them at home in 2002 so it would be even for the decade.


are you kidding me? we had two schedule a 2 for 1 with an academy? Heck Army went to Arkansas State last year.
