  1. This guy totally would, also very shifty thru the airport line bollards...
  2. Yeah kinda hope they fuck that up, would be very fitting way to end the Mets season
  3. Super Bowl back on! Please fire Tunsil into the sun
  4. Paging Dana Brown and Jim Crane...Bringing Goldy home would be pretty neat.
  5. Tech grad friend send that in our group chat last week, something about "Texas fans classy as always..." and got several prompt responses that I think can apply to OP as well: For real
  6. Think this would likely be a nonstarter for most if not all of the G5/6 leagues, they don't have much but that 1 access spot (or just the possibility of access to the "Big Boy" playoff) is something they will not want to ever lose if they can possibly help it. Feel like they would all try and fight that out in court and make it as painful as possible for the P4 to pull the plug on that. Sure it's likely guaranteed to be a 12 seed going up against a 5 but the exposure that 12 seed gets, and the low chance of one of them eventually ambushing a 5 seed is worth way more than any "kill fee". A G5/6 playoff of the "best of the rest" outside of the one chosen champion to who gets sent to trial by combat in the "Big Boy" playoff would be interesting and I personally would be all for it, think you have the right idea of running it week ahead and between games of the other playoff but feel like you would run into some of the same issues that currently exist with bowls a-la opt outs since it's not the "real" playoff and don't know how you can work that out and whoever is going to pony up the money to support a G5/6 playoff won't be very enthusiastic towards that.
  7. I kinda assumed Texas State would only ever be able to slowly grind away to correct the mistakes and setbacks put upon us by the previous University Admin (President Dr Trauth aka "The Bun") and Athletic Director (Larry "small time" Teis), but suddenly you have a total change in leadership to a University President like Dr Damphousse who is a legit rockstar and new AD Don Coryell who are both on the same page of wanting to push the University forward and looks like we got a chance to make a pretty big leap and get right back to where we should have been all along, exciting times... I have read rumblings about that but I really don't see it as being a front burner thing, all their other fan facing sports facilities on campus (think basketball gym, baseball and softball fields) are like crappy high school/D3 college level and need serious improvements before they need to worry about an on campus football stadium. One of the many frustrating things about UTSA appearing to "jump way ahead" of Texas State is that it's all football (what really matters) but they got zero serious investment in any other sports.
  8. Texas State riding the sinking ship that was WAC football in our 1st FBS season in 2012 and then getting thrown the ultimate life ring by Uncle Karl Benson, Sunbelt Commissioner (who may or may not have sunk the WAC ship the year before as WAC commissioner) and joining the Sunbelt in 2013 to save Texas State from likely CUSA purgatory next to Louisiana Tech and WKU to a decade of wandering the football wilderness to today, year of our lord 2024, being courted by the PAC, MWC and maybe to a lesser extent the AAC, and possibly holding the fate of the PAC and/or MWC in our hands is just as everybody expected CFB realignment to play out, right?
  9. Have low key always thought that at some point in the future, Texas State should do a "Necessary Roughness" game and be the Armadillos for a day, maybe see if you can get Scott Bakula to come down to San Marcos or something along those lines. Would for sure get North Texas, Texas Southern, and Aggy in a litigious mood and among other reasons is prob never going to happen tho... But how fun would it be to see this logo on something in a real game:
  10. Said it yesterday but with Waffle House closing up shop in Tallahassee for the storm it rings even truer...321nole really should have just ate the dog shit...
  11. Me, a Texas State fan seeing that we apparently have all options on the table for this round of realignment: EDIT: It's only been a few minutes but think I'm already drunk with power...
  12. The FSU guy prob should have just ate the dog shit before god started to send the real bad stuff...
  13. I think Pete found at least 1 college head coach that sees NIL like some of us do, very thinly veiled pay for play and the "rules are rules and law is law" hogwash doesn't really mean much...
  14. So when do the players start getting their cut of that money? NIL deal of an NIL deal...
  15. Is it just me or is their NIL collective abbreviating their name with "UNILV" in this statement just kinda silly?
  16. Could have a lot more fun with that $100K in Vegas than you would in Woostah at least
  17. Now if you had figured out a way to explain NIL in terms of Moises Alou pissing on his hands around the same time then we would really be getting somewhere...
  18. Possibly the biggest life lesson of this whole saga (other than don't hire a moron to represent you...) is "Get that shit in writing. Period."
  19. Apparently, Barry Odom don't have $12 for a mustache... Yeah that "It's all fixed next season" reminds me of the bit at the end of "The Big Short" where "all the bankers reasonable for the financial crisis were held accountable and went to prison...just kidding only one poor shit head ever went behind bars" Gonna be so much fun when pay for play via revenue sharing is a thing and there is a salary cap and everyone goes back to having bagmen meeting players at Mcdonalds to get around the salary cap...
  20. It would be real unfortunate if something happened to that college football team of theirs...real unfortunate lolz because that's not what it looked like before when he transferred from Holy Cross to UNLV ??
  21. Yeah but that all went down during the off season, not after going 3-0 heading into October on a team with legit CFP chances...
