Texas has at least one more school like gainsville, it is Giddings State School, about 50 miles from Austin... A movie was made about a school, if memory serves, in California, former Miami player "the Rock' played the headcoach

The game was between Grapevine Faith Academy and the Gainesville State School, both in TX . Faith is a Christian school and Gainesvi...

Many thanks! Have been a Greenie since 1948 (when TU was in the SEC). Had the pleasure of seeing a lot of games in old TU Stadium. Got to see the great Eddie Price play and was in Miami and saw the infamous 5th down play. Avid fan may not be strong enough to describe my love for TU football. Freaki...

I agree...a redshirt and the proper workout program could do wonders for this young man

near to my Heart...NCAA Officials in all sports should be hired and goverend by the NCAA and not individual conference's !!!! I hate when a game between two teams from different conferences is being played and one of the subjects or topics by an announcer "The officials for todays game are from...

also the "L.A. Law" marathon

If we add the 2 now we get a conference champ. game and more tv $ I'm not sure about that. Not enough more $ to offset the two additional shares. For instance, If the contract at 10 teams is for 30m a year (3m/team), then the contract at 12 teams would need to be OVER 36m a year. Given the limited ...

Vandy, Stanford, Northwestern, Rice, Baylor, SMU, Tulane..."one of these, is not like the others"

Quoting an unamed Moutain West souce, the conference will not be changing its name to "The Big Boise and some other Schools" ...the Mountain West feared a lawsuit from the producers of the movie "The Big Lebowski' and after paying the BSU exit fee from the Big East, it could not affor...

As a season ticket holder I got a call a few weeks ago about some rescheduling of games for TV purposes. The Wofford game was moved from Saturday to Friday but I don't see it listed for TV anywhere. Anyone have any info. on this. Now the game goes up against the Cotton Bowl and Johnny Football. wow...

The market prefers stability which even as is the MWC has over the big east. With Boise st. and San Diego st the MWC will have a championship, which will increase its market value. The big east took Houston and Smu for their market value, which is transportable to whatever conference they join. At ...

Neither of those articles state that Smu and Houston are leaning toward the MWC which was stated above. Just that they are possible targets. Hope it doesn't come to that. BE needs to get aggressive fast. I realize the basketball coachs at both SMU and Houston do not have lot's of input, but if aske...

SMU and Houston going to the Mtn West is "Exposure suicide"...for teams fighting for as much "ink" as they can in cities with pro franchises, playing in Laramie Wyo is not the best option, hell playing in Boise Idaho is not much better !!!!

I can't see San Diego St. staying now. Whatever happens happens, we had to leave the new CUSA no matter what the NBE ends up being. The reality is we didnt move up, we just didnt get left behind completely. I would hope USM is trying to get in, I also hope we can prevent Houston and SMU from boltin...

If San Diego state stays....add San Jose State... not so sure we need to be in a conference with Marshall.. Nothern Illinois makes more sense just because of the TV set's involved

If I am the Big East Commish.. I grab the TV sets in Chicago...and invite Northern Illinois !!!!!

hopefuly the Wofford game wil not be a woeful beginning to 2013
