TICKETS LEFT FOR TECH

[KillBilly]

I doubt many Tech fans are buying more than a three game plan because a full season plan is $99 (endzone) and $210 (sideline).

I doubt many Tech grads will buy more than a three game plan because the SMU ticket office doesn't accept food stamps.

Actually Tech grads earn more money than SMU grads at mid-career and beyond. No big deal.

And UH has the same starting salary as TCU and a better mid-career salary. If you believe Tech is higher than SMU, then we can all believe that UH is ahead of TCU. Well, I suppose that's not much of a stretch.

SMU graduates a higher percentage of students considerably earlier than Tech, with Tech students struggling to finish their degree. The reason why SMU average salaries are not higher is because there are fewer science and technology students as a percentage of the graduating class. SMU offers a real education with a strong emphasis on the liberal arts. Tech is a vocational school. Many SMU students pursue education for the intellectual value, and there are many graduates in the arts. I question whether these statistics include salaries for the law school and the business school grads. As for SMU's Cox School of Business, I think the Forbes ranking speaks loudest. Tech is not even on the radar.

While my family has strong ties to Lubbock and Texas Tech, fortunately I am a graduate of the SMU Cox School of Business, 1980. I am also a graduate of the University of Virginia, having studied international affairs at Mr. Jefferson's university. I never met any Tech grads at an Ivy league or comparable institution, although I am sure there must a handful - somewhere.

The only reason that those figures exist is that Tech has a medical school, which SMU does not have. If you aren't a lawyer or a doctor, SMU grads are far more affluent.

Well I guess that eliminates one of the potential pyrotechnics areas (I hope).

Great ticket management by SMU. A full south endzone (grassy area) will look great on TV.

According to my buddy who tried to get his SMU staff tickets this afternoon, they went on sale this morning at 9 AM and by the time he got to the ticket office at 1 PM all they had left were the general admission seats. Should be a packed house for ESPN!
