Unlike you, I want SMU in a BCS conference to compete in Football. Basketball is not as important in getting us to a BCS conference.

Hoops is always important. It's doubly important when it might aid in dragging football's limp, sagging as* in to a better conference down the road. Memphis and Temple sure didn't get in to the 'Murica based on football merit alone. Nor did 'Cuse, Pitt and 'Lousville get in to the ACC based solely on it (although Louisville had built a very strong football program for a number of years before their invite.

Love this comment on the thing:

OUT: Reporters who tell us what's cool. IN: Not being a follower.

On one line you said Katy Trail Icehouse was out, but on another you said Plano was in because it had a Katy Trail Icehouse.

So fried anything is in AND eating healthy is in? Hmmmm

Food truck parks won't be very "IN" if the food trucks that server them are "OUT".

Am I over-thinking this whole list?

You are part of the apathetic crew that leaves the team in the dust when we have bad years. Attendance sucks and we have to work on it. 2014 is a new year so let's get to work on getting people in there ASAP!


:lol:

You know this how?

Calling out your weak flame thread makes me an apathetic fan how?

By all means continue you pull things from your posterior. It's quite amusing. :D

unt attendance is not at all better than SMU when the size of the schools is considered. In fact, UNT is an embarrassment on attendance, and their school is truly awful in every way except maybe the jazz band.

No one takes in to account the size of the school. Who gives a crap about that, really. "Oh their stadium is 1/4 full, but you know, it's a small school so great for them!"

UNT averaged 21k at home. We never touched 21k (except when we hosted a home game on our campus for tech)

We should be embarrassed (disclaimer: not speaking to ponyfans as I know everyone here is extremely dedicated)

What I want to know is why ECM doesn't "want SMU in a BCS conference to compete in Football" like FTH? Why aren't you more like FTH who clearly says "I want SMU in a BCS conference to compete in Football"
"With a quarter of a tank of gas, we can get everything we need right here in DFW." -SMU Head Coach Chad Morris

My ultimate goal is for us to go the way of the University of Chicago and drop all athletics down to the D3 level. /sarcasm

You have suggested SMU becoming a "Basketball School"...what a boatload of crock.

Goal is BCS-AQ or Playoff berth conference status.

Conferences most likely to add SMU due to many factors: Big 12, ACC
Conferences less likely to add SMU: B1G, Pac 12
Conferences that would never add SMU (or anyone really...): SEC
