I think you are right about slow playing...but why do you say Easter? Just curious as I have no idea.

Besides the usual talk of Cougar Kitty High School, how does UH rate compared to TTech in academics? I know how they were when I was at SMU, but that is getting to be a long time ago. Are they better? Worse? About the same?

According to US News, Tech is in the 160s while Houston is in the 180s. I would be thrilled if SMU and UH went to the Pac-12.

easter is just a guess. they come back together for conference meetings so they dont like to do back room stuff until after they dont have to confront anyone face to face.

I think Sand Aggies (aka Tech Fans) is the best nickname in sports.
