  1. Scotty also wanted to play baseball potentially and that I believe is why he chose La Tech.
  2. Since when was TCU and Baylor "body bag" games?
  3. Coach Chico tweeted that there was 270+ in Round Rock/Austin Today. That's the biggest turnout I believe. There is alot of talent untouched in that area. RR stony point, Georgetown, Westwood, Westlake, Lake Travis, Leander, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Liberty Hill, Wimberly.
  4. That might of been our new DB coach Noah Joseph from Montana State. He's a young guy and from what I heard is really active hands on.
  5. This is huge, this will help with our desperate need at DT depth. This will also open up a recruiting scholarship for our 2013 class. I just hope we diddnt lose someone from our 2012 class
  6. Is this the first year we ever did this big of a tour?
  7. An hour show about Cowboys , Rangers, Mavs, NBA finals and about 4 min of Tony Benford. I'll take it, said we will be looking to fill 6 scholarships (5 seniors and TM). Post presence is the biggest need and will need to be an immediate impact, also a combo guard
  8. I imagine well host one soon enough. I'd like to see New Orleans and Dallas switch every other year. Wishfully thinking
  9. Can we start a "Shave the Stache" campaign ?
  10. Ummm, wow. No Thanks. Congrats UTA, enjoy that "wrestling"
  11. Imagine the mess they will have when they get a new HC at Troy. (eventually) All the grey-shirts, broken promises when they don't get the schoalrship. I don't understand their over signings year in and out.
  12. Wow, lol enjoy the BE suckers
  13. Whenever I run out of toilet paper, I just print out some bleacher reports articles to wipe my ass.
  14. wow, if we drew 1000 weiners on the roof of the super pit it would look light years better.
  15. Football Coach Dan opened up and is so passionate. we honestly have the best coaches in the country and I wouldn't trade all the Coach K's and Bear Bryants for what we have now after tonight. -All the players besides 1 scholarship athlete received above a 2.0 this semester. the 1 is still eligible. -*when Dan first interviewed all the players when he arrived, 50 players only had 1 division offer and that was UNT. He said that is going to change and the philosophy of who we go after. Jimmerson is his offensive to look out for this season. Akunne is his defensive guy to look out for. CUSA will really benefit us in recruiting and rivalries Womens BBall Mike Peterson I can't say enough about this guy, I got to have a 20 min conversation with him before everything started. I first got to thank him for coming here because what he was leaving behind at Wake Forest is an amazing accomplishment. He reiterated that we really need the practice facilities, overall what we have as athletics is on par of the top universitys in the Pac-12, ACC, Big 10 but having that continuity and selling point to recruit will really help the program. My buddy asked him, would you rather have a practice facility or renovations to the super pit? "We only use the super pit on game days, we use the practice facilities around campus every day" "Not only will that improve us but it will help sell the recruits. recruits like nice new shiny things but we have the bare necessitates, we just need the place to call home." -We will have home games vs Arizona, Texas State, UT-Arlington. Away @ Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arkansas* Practices will have two shot clocks. One for 30 seconds(shot clock for women's bball) and one for 3sec. "if we get a rebound, I want the ball in the front court within 3 sec. If we dont its a turnover to me." "I told the ladies, I want to play fast, my fast is faster than your fast. If you come to our open practices, sit high up because balls are going to be flying until they adjust to the tempo." Tennis The head Tennis coach made a quick appearance. -Team GPA was 3.6! -we never have beat TCU in 45+ years of competition and we almost beat them this year but because of rain, we never got to finish competition. Great guy and quite the comedian. Sounds like they are on the verge of signing him to a long-term contract. over 500 were on hand to watch them win the SBC championship Mens BBall Tony Benford If you had any doubts from the press conference on him as a public speaker, NOT SO FAST MY FRIEND! He got everyone up in a circle and gave the most powerful speech of the night. Opening up with a story that will SHOCK you all and prove how much of an influence he has on the players. He had 2 weeks to work out the players and get to know them. One of the first practices, two showed up late. Benford told one of the guys, i know you're 5 mins late but you cant practice today. When you need to be somewhere, especially practice, i EXPECT YOU TO BE THERE, or else you are letting the rest of the team down. That player apologized and asked what can I do coach? Benford allowed that player to stay but he had to give 100 touches. motivating his teammates under the basket. After he did 100 touches, he asked coach, what can i workout now? Benford walked this player across the street to Fouts and asked him to run 5 miles. This will be you're workout. This player was Tony Mitchell. He sat down with Tony and his mother and showed him what his strengths and weaknesses are. "When you get drafted next year and Doc Rivers gives me a call, its not going to be about any tardiness, dribbling off the ball. Apparently Benford is close friends with Doc Rivers He believes he will get Tony to the next level and we will not recognize this team next year. He went down the roster next year and confirmed UDOH and Forrest are gone Udoh has academic issues and will not be joining the team. Forrest LEFT the team after not panning out after the workouts. ALL the players will be eligible this Fall!!!!! This brought a huge applause from the crowd, SO YES!!!! Chris Jones, Justin Patton and Jordan Williams are GOOD TO GO! No word yet on scheduling, still in the works but he is not afraid to bring in any team to the super pit. SMU most likely wont want to play us. lol Feel free to ask me any questions, there is more i will add later once I can remember but this was GREAT event. If you get a chance, go to the last show in Fort Worth. The coaches genuinely appreciate all the support we give them. GO MEAN GREEN! Click here to view the article
