this is interesting. But, if any of you know world soccer... this is nothing knew. Soccer clubs had contracts with many different soccer brands such as adidas, puma, kelme, asics, nike, etc. But, a more famous cleat that most pros liked awhile back was called the adidas copas. Most here that own soccer cleats from adidas usually have copas or a similar in appearance but weaker quality that doesn't have the supple kangaroo leather called mundials. Anywho, players on clubs that had contracts with other companies refused to give up their copas. SO they would rip off the three stripes on the side of their shoe and then sow on the brand of their teams contracted company. That and a little marker to manipulate the appearance of the cleat made it appear that it was company brand and company made. Most didn't even notice they were doing this and got away with it. However, i think the most famous cleat these days is still from adidas... but, they are now called "preditors".

La Tech-24 UNT- 10 I will be there... see you at the game.

you all that are criticizing him for this are just mad that he called you all idiots a few weeks ago. Because there is no way you can say that what he said was wrong. He is right on. so quit your whining.

Yeah, we would have to put forth alot of money to bring him here. And i wonder if we could just bite the bullet and get him on. But, i bet he would also bring ALOT of money back in return. Everybody keeps asking us to present a coach. i was just presenting one off the top of my head. I am sure there are many many many viable candidates that would just love to have a D-1A head coaching job. And i am sure there are many that are more capable than DD. so, the arguement that there is just no one out there to replace him just doesn't seem true. It just requires some investigating and a bit of luck.

Why not see if R.C. Slocum would take us up on it. Solid coach fired even during after a winning season. he is still at aTm as an advisor.

overreacting indeed.

Barnett's back?! isn't this like his 3rd year of being a senior?!

this is just sad if true.

your right... Very well then... He can do it. and did. and you, the evil moderator, took action. Way to stick it to the man shaft!

What i am trying to say and keep failing to do it.. is this... he can say what he wants... there are just consequences to that. i.e. you deleting the thread. and for the umpteenth time having to post the rules to the board.

Cerebus, whether you have the right to delete his stuff, even at his approval... Doesn't mean he still doesn't have the right to say it.

Talking to a WR the year we moved into SBC he said, "thank God we are going into the SBC. It is much easier and we have a chance to win this thing now that we are gone from the BWC." At least in the mind of this individual he thought the SBC was a step down in competition. Plus, it seems that way anyhow.

You guys are too thin skinned. So, his opinion is different from yours. He has that right.

the attendence will be no where close to that come our next home game. All i heard from everyone near me is how they will not be returning to see such crap again. Besides... trend shows that we never maintain such numbers.

Ummm.. i am not quite sure what you mean by this statement. doesn't make any sense what so ever. About the ncaa rushing championship thing... kinda makes you wonder about our running back talent with such a crap year as this one is obviously turning out to be.

Wow... I would love for us to get 16 points. But, i don't think that will happen.

based on our play so far this season... i fear every game we are playing this year.

So true.

Philosophy about to begin grad school... Th.M. Theology masters

I was a philosophy major.... First day of my Existentialism class... The professor, whom i have taken before and knows my opinions on certain things, walked in to class looked around and stopped for a second when he saw me and a close friend of mine (whom he also knows his views). He then said to the whole class while looking at us, "There are a few people in this class that I encourage not to be here. Some people may not be able to handle the things discussed because of their prior views. You need to drop this course and add another." needless to say, i didn't drop the class and I finished with a B in the course. My friend finished with an A. Man, he didn't like our opinions.

Yeah, i played football in middle school with him. He was in my class.

From stories i have heard... DD has always shot straight with his potential recruits. DD is probably right. If this guy has it... then the bigger schools will come calling.

TEXAS STATE?!?! hell, we might as well set up a rivalry with North Central Texas College. Way to set that bar!!!

Exactly.. it isn't youth. It is our coaching style/philosophy. We need to change this. People have us figured out. We will only beat those that are worse than us... never on par. We must change up our style...

Yes, we and SMU need to change.
