  1. So you’re sticking with “back of the baseball card” and “all is well”. This team needs a kick in the ass.
  2. This. Send Espada and Brown packing after the Memorial Day holiday.
  3. Some of us actually like being part of the South and don’t reflexively hate Southern heritage. We’re Texans first and foremost and we acknowledge that we have a lot in common with our neighboring states.
  4. We’re much more like UGA, UF, Tennessee and Alabama than Berkeley. Hopefully, UNC and UVA join the SEC soon. They fit in very well with us. So does Michigan but they won’t join the SEC. Our fans would have hated being in the PAC 12. Thank God that never happened.
  5. And much better football, fan experience at road games and closer cultural fit. It’s a win-win on every level.
  6. You’re delusional if you think our peer schools in the SEC — UF, UGA and Vandy are more racist than UT.
  7. Bama has a very pretty campus, hot girls and a great football program. UGA has the same and is a pipeline to Atlanta jobs. They also have a traditional college social scene with traditional college students (meaning not a lot of part-timers or older students). OU and Arkansas give great financial aid packages to good students from Texas. There is a huge LSU alumni base in Houston and it’s a natural draw for kids of their alums. Ole Miss is a great party school and Auburn has a good engineering program. There are a shit ton more attractive traditional college experiences to be had in the SEC than schools other than UT in Texas. No one wants to go to Lubbock. Cougar High and UTD are commuter schools with lots of non-traditional students. Baylor and TCU are private and Christian which is a turnoff for some. Rice is elite but is a small school with a a crappy football team and nerdy social scene. aggy is fucking weird. It’s a major problem for Texas that we don’t have a bunch of schools other than UT to offer what the other SEC schools provide. Cougar High tried to mandate that all freshman have to live on-campus. Great idea to change their commuter school reputation. Unfortunately for them, John Whitmire and other idiots raised a fuss about no longer catering to non-traditional students and they backed off.
  8. He’s absolutely right. We would have one another one last year if not for Dusty’s stupidity with his lineups
  9. They’ve shown him at least 3 times tonight. Miss his posts. He’s been missing for a several years.
