At the President’s Staff Sack Lunch just now in jest, paraphrasing:

“We gotta keep them humble - they did just make it past community college status after all.”

As soon as the live stream is done and posted, I’ll linknit here.

Also addressed the ESPN/Sparty controversy. I love this guy. Grant McCasland now up.

Throwing objects at UTSA players is uncalled for.   Unless of course the objects are college applications.  Then it's just helpful.

LOL, so we get called out by your fans when ours have social media battles with rival schools like Texas State, but when your own Vice President and Director of Athletics makes a preemptive and unwarr

Does anyone have a timestamp for when approx in the video he said that? Might want to make some GIF magic out of that if I have enough time (probably not).

I am guessing that WB wouldn't want that quote/video splattered all over the internet to be used as bulletin board material, no matter how indisputably true it may be.

That would be very foolish if he did say that. 

On that subject, there was a quote on the USM broadcast that a NT coach say something to fire up USM.  Apparently, its effects only lasted one quarter; but does anyone know what was said.

Call someone who'll listen, or might give a damn
Maybe one of your sorted affairs
But don't you come 'round here handin' me none of your lies
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares

Won’t matter at all if we rise up and pound the Runners due to our excellent game plan, revenge juices and breakout athletes.

prepare, win, celebrate on camera, repeat!

It was in an effort to encourage attendance for this game. He doesn’t say things lightly. This was for effect.

If it gets butts in seats, I’m hyped about it.

Yeah I’m sure it will amp up the UTSA crowd contingent. It may be a 60-40 crowd.

Ha!  Yeah, I remembered that too and was just going to post the same thing.

I have to assume that Baker made that comment as a little joke not realizing it would become public.  Regardless of the accuracy of the statement or not it's just not the way to treat a fellow conference member.  I would not be surprised if Baker releases an apology tomorrow.

and that's the problem with society...we can't say what we think without worrying about being offensive...say what you mean and stand behind it...heaven forbid someone gets offended or doesn't like what you say

I love the sentiment, I just wish this didn’t end up on here or Twitter. Those ratbirds in SA already pretend this is their SB, don’t need any more motivation.

Let it get posted. Half of them can't read unless it's a picture book.

What did Wren say that was not true?

Does it matter?  No.  You can tell your wife she looks fat in a certain outfit and even if it's true you're going to regret it.  You could tell your kids they are stupid and you could be correct but it's a stupid thing for you to say.

There's also the matter of being respectful towards others.  This was just a little joke that looks much worse in black and white and isolated from all context.

      Not thrilled about playing State

      Dude flunked out at UNT and ran back home to his mom in Houston and flunked out again, and trolls the UNT message board trying to act big time, because he's been run off the Houston board. Imagine how big of a douche you have to be that other UH fans can't even stand you.

      JUCO players will have 4 years NCAA eligibility remaining

      Nope from the beginning of this (end of College Football Alliance). It has all been about cut throat capitalism with the schools competing as individual business that happen to operate sports teams connected to academic institutions. Come on, you have Cal and Stanford in the Atlantic Coast Conference. The NFL stopped that madness as soon as they added franchises in geographic locations to fix that mess (Carolina Panthers, Arizona Cardinals). College Football in comparison is going backwards. Imagine if the Los Angeles Rams and 49ers were moved to the NFC East because they were big markets like New York. 🤣. The same reason that NIL is a mess; not paying players will always be more profitable if your organization doesn't have to pay them directly and they aren't employees with rights and access to collective bargaining (Look up stories on the problems with the Gig Economy ie Uber, Grubhub and etc.) They should roll everything back to being in line with salaries for everyone in College Athletics being on par with academic administrators, professors and the players as amateurs getting scholarships and regional conferences. But we all know that all those people will not agree to take massive pay cuts (excluding the athletes because you don't need them to agree because the structure would be self evident the teams are not operating as if they are seeking profit). In this every conference/program for themselves model nobody has the desire or power to fix things on a macro level. And any entity that does will immediately be sued or have to allow for some sort of collective bargaining. 🤷🏽‍♂️
