  1. That's a really weird way to put it "Oregon State, Washington State Will Expand to the Big 12" It sounds like those two schools are absorbing the others.
  2. Max will travel. Jimbo will give the job back to Weigman next year to cover for this year's record.
  3. Pure tuition at Ivies tends to be exceedingly cheap. Look at the Best Value list on USNWR and it’s Harvard,MIT, etc
  4. My son’s first grade teacher went there. Sorority girl type. She parlayed that into marrying a divorced dad and becoming a mom in the same class
  5. That’s a great school but exceedingly tough to get into. Our kids’ college counselor puts it up with the schools like Scripps, Bates, and Williams for selectiveness.
  6. Engineering may be different but for my business school ass and for my friends in Liberal Arts, Journalism or what have you, where mattered more than what by a gigantic margin. I specifically recall a Big accounting /consulting firm offering jobs to UT English majors but telling BBAs from directional schools to go to grad school.
  7. That TEDCUXYZPDQ Stadium is so weird. On TV it looks gigantic. But when you see it in person it looks like they took a 100,000 seat stadium and just shrank it. All the decks have like 10 rows and all the rows are short.
  8. I guess I simply have a different philosophy on college than most here. I don’t want my kids to look at majors based on earning potential. That’s what grad school is for. They’re looking at small Liberal Arts schools, primarily on the East Coast.
  9. Most states are like that. One year out of state and three years in if your parents aren’t dumb enough to do stuff like take the tax exemption
  10. FWIW, public schools ranked above Texas is last week’s USNWR ranks in order Berkeley UCLA Michigan NC Virginia UC Davis UCSD Florida
  11. You really only have to watch 3 minutes to get the idea. Especially if you got an earful of “Everything goes through Lubbock” and “Dark Horse Conference Champs” all summer from your company’s assistant office supply manager. These guys were all in on that They can’t wait for 2023 to be over and it’s week 4.
  12. That Blake Bost guy looks like the real deal
  13. That channel has delivered two weeks in a row. The Chris Level guy might just throw his mic and walk off set at some point.
  14. This is what happens when you marry a woman a decade older. She thinks of her husband as the toy in her nightstand drawer.
  15. I'm pretty sure their football will go back to its pre-Briles mean, but I'm honestly curious what happens to their basketball program. The 2024-on Big XII is full of tough basketball teams no one really cares about and Kansas. I assume baseball will be OK.
  16. I wish I had watched the Oregon-Tech game. I cannot understand how they almost beat/should have beaten Oregon given what I saw against Wyoming and WVU. Home vs. road? Extra tortillas?
  17. There was a Bix XII ad during the Baylor game that focused pretty heavily on both Texas' and OU's championships and Heismans as proof of the conference's right at the big table, and then another ad that basically said "we're gonna be bigger and better next year without them." Seems a bit inconsistent.
  18. Some drunk at the Wyoming game told me Murphy has “a deal in place” to transfer to Utah. So I believe we need to play him more.
