What will SMU bring to BIG EAST conference?

[sbsmith]

We need to tone down the arrogance on here.

Tone down? You do know this is Ponyfans.com right?

You are a special kind of stupid.

Is this all you got? Considering how you SMU folks think of yourselves as the 2nd coming of Harvard, I was hoping for more elegant and elaborate smack talk. Something witty...similar to what one would see in The Onion, but of course it comes to show that your [deleted] stinks like everyone else's.

We are a very charitable school and keep it simple for the simpletons like you and the UCF fan! Otherwise you wouldn't realize you are being insulted lol!

Houston is number 184? I thought i was exaggerating. I kind of feel sorry for them now.

4 year graduation rate is...........wait for it.......drum roll........15%? Really? Not a typo?
Just wow! Why even bother?

Why are we dragging these guys into the B.E.? There had to be someone better.

Its where you go if you didn't get into LSU or Texas Tech.

cougar king: "is that all you got? i don't think the facts are good enough to show me that my school is very much below your own. remember that we have basketball players and that alone makes us better than you. good thing you didn't hire any good basketball coaches or we'd be in trouble. cougar high will ride our marginal success in the small things all the way to 7-11 since the HUGE number of 15% of students graduate on time. suck on that."

There, I wrote the response for you. Saved you some time so you can get back to stocking shelves.

This is funny. BE invited us but only dragged you guys along to be a traveling partner. But of course, this site is as delusional as the UNT board.

That is actually incorrect. Marinatto stated that SMU was brought under consideration to be a travel partner for TCU. When TCU decided not to join, the Big East made the decision to get into Texas with two markets, so they brought on SMU and Houston. You can find the video of Marinatto saying that on the Ponyfans YouTube channel

Let's just lay it out there. On a national scale:

Nobody gives a damn about SMU football.
Nobody gives a damn about Houston football.
Nobody gives a damn about UCF football.
Nobody gives a damn about SMU basketball.
Nobody gives a damn about Houston basketball.
Nobody gives a damn about UCF basketball.

SMU brings a market, a recruiting bed, ridiculously deep pockets, tradition, and academics to the Big East. How far does that go? Debateable. One thing that isn't debateable is that SMU has made huge strides in the last few years to upgrade facilities, bring in the best available coaching talent, and we have spent-spent-spent. Are our results on par with our spending? Not yet, but we're on our way and we have every tool we need...and we've put our money where our mouth is.

UCF. Houston. Welcome to the Big East where nobody gives a damn about you either. I love how good it feels to have gone to SMU, and not your school.

We were supposed to be TCU's travel partner and rival, but of course we couldn't expect you to have some semblance of knowledge on the subject now could we?

what will SMU bring? another warm weather location for late season football games; an escape from brutal winter weather in hoops; more TV exposure for the league in Dallas...and better looking coeds than a lot of those northeastern schools

I would feel bad if you brought something, anything really, to this conversation but all you've shown is that you're a little bi tch from cougar high and that you won't ever amount to anything. I feel for you, really. It's hard to get a job at a decent convenience score with the rest of the dropouts from your high school.

Please tell me they don't let him operate motor vehicles.
