Question here. When I called in and renewed my football tickets I asked when season BB tickets would be on sale for new fans. I was told it would be around August. I plan on getting 4 season tickets and assumed I had to wait until then to buy them. Has this changed?

I'd like to see some combo marketing with both our coaches. Something along the lines of "Dallas Loves a Winner" campaign. Landry. Johnson. Brown. Dallas Loves a Winner. Larry Brown, SMU Basketball Head Coach. Then a phone number and website info for tickets. Then do some things with June June's, national coach of the year, Larry brown hall of fame coach, NCAA and NBA champion, the best in the business coach at SMU because Dallas Loves a Winner. Or, "Jones and Brown......at SMU we now pay the coaches and not the players."

Tickets aren't open to the general public yet but you can put a down a deposit right now.

Was that from the "dream" season when Hawaii went undefeated during the regular season but looked like a junior high team in their bowl game? LB's credentials are much more legitimate than JJ's are.....

No, that was from the season when Hawaii won 9 games after winning none the previous season but you're right Brown's credentials are far more legitimate than June's.

Brown's are more legitimate than anyone's. Doesn't lessen what a great coach June Jones is.

"Welcome to Town, Larry Brown"...is this the campaign we're rolling out with?

It had huge pictures of TCU football players, coaches, etc. On both sides, it stated that Chicken Express supports TCU athletics. The design on the truck really grabs your attention. They did a good job with it.

Chicken Express might want to do a little self-promotion as well as I've never heard of Chicken Express.

Billboards, everywhere. Let's do it. Create a presence in DFW. No stupid [deleted] gimmicks like "June cometh" either. It's an athetic department, not a porn studio. We're going to the Big East for God's sake, lets do this right.

Imagine all the Dr Pepper trucks in Dallas advertising the Ponies on the back.

Or American airlines planes!!!!

Guerilla Mktg: smu flags on stripper poles in high end clubs all over town!

Seriously, my nephew is a freshman in the Dallas area. He lose going to SMU games when I am in town. . We should be running promos for adults to bring kids cheap for ll the non-conference games.
