our best chance to be a legit national power in a revenue is hoops, but as you said, tough to see that right now.SoCal_Pony wrote:Our best chance to compete against UT is in BB and we all know how that is turning out.
My parents met at UT so if it weren't for that school, I wouldn't be here. Therefore, I root for UT. That being said - SMU comes first and foremost and if we ever play them in a real sport again, I hope we score 10 times what they do.PonyDoh wrote:I'll never ever understand an SMU undergrad or alum having love for any old SWC foe. I don't care if we recruit against them now, play against them, or not. The best result of a A$M/UT game is the stadium imploding.
Ok, I'll buy extenuating circumstances like yours. Your family gets a pass from any stadium implosionCalallenStang wrote:My parents met at UT so if it weren't for that school, I wouldn't be here.

I bet our Equestrian team could sure give UT a run for their moneySoCal_Pony wrote:Our best chance to compete against UT is in BB and we all know how that is turning out.
Just because an SMU alum hates UT doesn't necessarily mean that he thinks they are our rival. One has nothing to do with the other.StallionsModelT wrote:Almost half of my family went to Texas so I have a soft spot in my heart for them. We are absolutely no threat to them in any way at this point. Hating them seems a bit trivial.

You're right, but I thought that was a closely guarded secret.SoCal_Pony wrote:No need for geldings....we have PerunaPK wrote:...or we can send those two cowboys on our geldings down there to corral ole Bevo.

Careful, or you'll be accused of staying on the original topic.mustangbill67 wrote:I am just glad Jeffcoat decided to go to Texas and not follow his dad to Houston.
Many of us complained about the University's reaction to tje "death penalty," supported a lawsuit against the NCAA that would have possibly allowed us to do discovery into the rampant cheating taking place at UT and elsewhere, and opposed A. Kenneth Pye's insistence that SMU football operate on what was essentially a club sport level. We were told to shut up and not make waves.Stallion wrote:We are less likely to have a recruiting battle with UT or play UT than just about any team in the country. Haven't had a recruiting battle with UT in decades. Its an imaginery rivalry-get over it. You can pretend its 1980 but its not. If you wanted to be competing against UT a lot more of should have opened your mouth and complained when Ken Pye decided to play Ivy League Football rather than compete at the highest levels of College Football.
Just curious, why would you ever feel ashamed of being from SMU????redpony wrote:I was never so ashamed of being from SMU as I was during that period.
