Shit. That means I'll have to get up at 5:00. May sleep in until the third quarter.

When you need to escape your roommate at 2:30 in the morning, yes.

I think he was asking if there was sex with another person....

My mom was at freshman orientation in Batts when Whitman did his thing.  She graduated with a Sr season national title.  Kind of deserved that I guess with the entry point being what it was.  

look!....No matter what your Mom tells you I didnt promise her a thing....

Do y'all think they'll eventually make the west side tie into the SEZ and east side?

No. There were some kind of elevation issues.

Gotcha, they definitely need to renovate that side somehow and upgrade the restrooms and concessions.

Dont disagree, but I imagine fixing plumbing THAT old will be expensive as fuck. Probably wouldn't expect it until after a couple winning seasons.

Just curious, whats our official capacity now?

[Armybrat 40744]

Biggest crowd was 103,000 for the USC game in 2018, I think.

can't wait to see renderings. Need to get the weightroom above ground and give the players a skyline view.

God the way he writes is infuriating. I wish he would succumb to whatever STD he is suffering from.

Are they gonna make Waller Creek a tunnel with San Jacinto running over the top? I don’t see how they make it fit without moving or getting rid of the street.

Isn’t the plan to move them to mccombs, move mccombs to Dobie? I feel like I read that here.

Got an email that Robert Dedman on the East Side of the stadium will be closed due to cranes operating for a stadium lighting upgrade this week. So I guess the new LED lights are finally getting installed.

I don't know what's going on over there, but they're taking down the entire light poles.  Two of the four are now gone, and they're working on a third.

Are the LEDs so bright that we're only going to use the lights on the west side?  I would think there'd be an issue with shadows, but maybe not.

He said in another tweet that they didn't turn on the ribbon leds.  Just testing the lights up high.

There are so many quality bermuda hybrids these days...no reason for us not to switch back. If aggy can do it, surely we can figure it out.

[CoachTex 2620]

I prefer we go with a hybrid. A cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sinsemilla. The amazing stuff about it is, that you can play 8 quarters on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus-belt that night on this stuff.
