For those getting tix, are you getting as many as you had seats at DKR? i.e. if you have 4 season tix, are you getting 4 seats?
No mention of number of tickets in my email, but I’m assuming the same number as my season tickets (4).

I’m just guessing here. My rank is 4,200ish and I was lucky to get tickets should we make it. I saw a poster somewhere who was 4,700 rank and they didn’t get tickets. So, my guess is cutoff was around ~4,500. So, you should be good at 4,000. I would call the foundation if you’ve gotten no communication because they are sending emails to everyone who did and did not get tickets.
For anyone keeping track of the cutoff, my rank is 4,187 and I DID receive tickets.

Not sure…I think my rank is like 4000+ and I got in if we make it.
Can you expand upon this?
I’m right at the 4,000 rank and I haven’t received any notification yet.

you mean 8000 acct rank not points right?
I'm about 5500 rank out of 40,000 but my points are nowhere near even 1000.
Yeah, same question. I’m right at the top 10% and not even at 1,000 points.

Not sure where else to put this, but I have a good friend who has opened a Brewpub in The Cedars in Dallas.
It’s within stumbling distance from Lee Harvey’s.Has a ton of great beer on tap. About 25% his own stuff and the rest from Dallas-area brewers.
Give him a try if you are in the area.

Scholarships, cool. My “worthless” comment touches more on their overall indifference in even being willing to let NIL folks make a pitch. The original take from leadership around the fall of 2021 was even worse, in which they said they were going to run an NIL program too and then tried stir up shit with the AD about what we were actually doing. They never did shit on the NIL front and haven’t been otherwise helpful. I get that it’s not their remit, but we weren’t asking them for money, either. I stand by my position as it pertains to NIL.
Point taken.
My limited interaction with the TE leaders in Austin is spotty at best. I can see how they could totally F up any NIL endeavor.

I mean they have not done a fucking thing and don't seem to actually exist for any real purpose other than happy hour. I'd love for someone to explain what it is that they are supposed to do. The biggest thing is having the LHF and the AD aligned with the NIL efforts. That alignment is real and helping break things down.
Remember, I've said this before, there are some major $$$ people/groups who have zero interest in ever providing a dollar towards NIL. They don't think student athletes should be getting paid. They also, coincidentally, tend to be the type that likes seeing their name on things and getting credit for as much as they can.
I can only speak for the Dallas Texas Exes, but we have raised millions for scholarships. The chapter has funded three Forty Acre Scholars, which provides a full ride based on academics, stemming the flow of top students in Texas going to schools like Duke. Additionally the chapter has given out countless need-based scholarships. I believe Houston has done pretty much the same. Smaller chapters do what they can, providing need-based scholarships to local students.

If I get my butt in the road early enough, I’ll bring some kolaches.

I grabbed a couple tickets for a buddy yesterday. Section 113 row 25 were the "best available". $175 face
Yeah, it’s a little scary hitting the order button without having any idea of what seats you’re going to get.

Oh man the frat boys did not enjoy Longhorns taking pictures with the Gary Patterson statue after the basketball game, even put a hat on him. Quickly devolved into 'fuck you's' and 'faggots'.
I was the guy that put the hat on him and got a picture with my arm around him.
Yes, let’s just say the frat boys did not see the humor.

Come on man. That’s the vocal minority. I’m in our most redneck base and almost everyone I fly with is happily vaxxed.
As for Bob, nobody knows shit about him. Most of us had never even heard the name before until he was announced last year. Turns out he was in charge of all our IT stuff a while back, and that’s umm… cause for concern. Didn’t know he was an Aggie until I read this thread.
I worked in IT at SWA back when Gary was Controller. My group actually supported Finance so I got to interact with Gary a bunch. You could tell he was special. I also worked with Bob J. Seemed nice enough and not a red-ass, but then again he was nothing special either. Night and day difference compared to Gary. Hopefully SWA is on auto-pilot enough to survive this.

I guess that is how it looks while you sit on it watching your old get worked.
What kind of cheesy-ass bling watch is that??

I haven’t been following in a while so I don’t know if it has been discussed, but if we want to start another fund for another position (Oline ?), I’m in at the top level. I flipping tired of losing.

Dad is a prick, sure. He deserves what this board dishes and then some. That said I'd still take Tommy if he saw the err of his/dads ways.

Total Wine in Los Colinas has it.
I’ll check it out. Total wine a mile from my house has never has it, only the Rye.
I also might be looking for some Garrison Brothers Balmorhea when we get Urban. I’ve read great things about it.

I might need some lessons. I want to get started but fuck it seems impossible
1. Get a good, heavy offset smoker
2. Memorize Franklin’s videos (or buy his book, or his Master class)
3. Profit

I'm of the opinion that I don't give one fuck what something is called in the Czech Republic. Here, in this state, kolaches have meat in them. When some hipster or foodie dipshit who overrates themselves and their importance pipes up pedantically to tell a room what they're actually "supposed" to be called during a breakfast meeting, they're shouted down and told to shut the fuck off, and we take their fucking kolaches away.
So then I guess you are ok when someone from outside Texas says that they are “Bar B Queing” when all they are doing is slapping some hamburger patties and hot dogs on a grill.

Thanks for posting the number. I couldn’t find it anywhere on the web site. Poor lady sounded beaten down but renewal complete.
