My father just sent me an email saying that SMU has a full page color ad in today's NY Times about the move to the Big East. I will get a chance to see it later. Great publicity!!

We have feelings too. :lol:

But in seriousness, it's good to get publicity in the north east. A lot of good quality applicants in the area.

Without knowing anything about the ad, my guess is that this ad comes from the BE conference. Maybe it'll help our TV ratings.

Received an email with a link to the ad:

http://www.smu.edu/aboutsmu/facts/advertising

You can download a pdf of the ad.

The ad suggests it was sponsored by by SMU, not the Beast.

SMU in Big D is Proud to Join the Big East

It's another milestone in our storied history of educating Nobel, Oscar, Pulitzer and Heisman award winners. The move also reflects the resurgence of Mustang football--including three consecutive bowl games. We're ready to bring the strengths of Dallas and our nationally ranked university to a conference with a shared tradition of excellence. As we enter our second century of unbridled progress, we look forward to a new era of spirited competition.


Then it lists all of the BEast schools.
