Texas has 38 members of Congress and 2 Senators. Of that total, only 4 graduated from UT (undergraduates) plus 3 with a UT JD, 0 graduated from A&M, 0 graduated from a Big 10 school, and 1 graduated from Notre Dame. The Big 12 has 3 TX Tech graduates, 2 UH graduates plus 2 UH JD, and 1 TCU graduate. The ACC has a UVA graduate and a Stanford graduate. The majority are graduates of schools that are not affiliated with any of the above leagues including 4 graduates from military academies and 3 Ivy League graduates. The unaffiliated may get contributions from the alums from other schools but I don't believe that support for the power 2 is a foregone conclusion with regards to any legislation. That being said, I am not convinced that if this issue is addressed legislatively that the NCAA will be given sufficient power to accomplish the objective.

The MWC is at this point only attractive to New Mexico State and FCS schools that want to move up. Otherwise, I think they have exhausted their expansion options. If the PAC12 is unable to lure UNLV away from the MWC then I think their best option is to land a Texas Trifecta. I don't see a single Texas School wanting to be an outlier in the PAC (Texas State might go alone but I doubt it). Of course, any big media deal would change my opinion, but I doubt that happens.

I really liked his work ethic and performance. Sad to see him go.

Anyone that refers to himself as TheChosen 1 better produce bigly!

I agree. The key to success next year will be substantial defensive improvement.

Sam Houston 40-39 Texas State (Sep 28, 2024) Final Score - ESPN In the second half of this game TSU was held to 7 points. That seems to indicate that halftime defensive adjustments were effective. I am optimistic about the future of our defense.

I for one was pleasantly surprised.
