OK, sure, I could just wait until Monday, but who wants to wait when it involves the Mean Green?  Both Jalie Mitchell and Grant McCasland have been on Facebook and Twitter hinting at a big announcement coning Monday.  Anyone have any inside scoop they want to leak to those of us not wanting to wait?

I noticed today that the north side of the Pit’s metal roof has some different material over the rusted patina. Not sure what is going on there.

A wild guess - naming rights?

If so, then not-yet-planned major improvements because of that money?

After the recent upgrades that were made to the concourse area, I'm trying to go over possible areas that might be upgraded.

  • Scoreboards on either end of the arena could definitely be changed out. It would be awesome to see an LED ribbon added as well.
  • Wren has discussed the desire to add more Loge box seats in the SP.
  • New playing surface?
  • The guts/underside of the SP needs a desperate update.

There could be other things as well that don't have much fan/spectator visibility.

They already have. Hope they do something with the courtside table and the black boxes in the seating area  and the scoreboards up in the corners. Just take them out!

New playing surface it is! Be sure to go vote for your favorite.

I think anytime you can show the fans you're investing in the program, it can generate excitement.

I love the battle flag, but not sure how I feel about it as the court design. I chose the Light The Tower design.

100% agree... the battle flag looks good on a cornhole board, not a basketball court. 

 

Give me Light the Tower.

Battle flag all the way. It’ll be very popular on social media, and we’ll be the first Texas school to incorporate the flag into the court design. If you want attention from Texans, put the flag on it. It’s pandering, but it’ll get a lot of attention.

Light the tower is a cool tradition, but every single school has a building that looks almost identical to McConnell. It’s not that special.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Here’s the thing, I don’t think even you believe they would have lost the way SMU did. Penn State won by 28, but they could have made it more…SMU was NEVER in that game competitively…and they never should have been in it at all. They dodged the only two “decent” teams in a VERY weak ACC during the regular season and lost anytime they played a decent team.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Look, as for SMU….they’re 30 minutes down the road. You can say “why are we talking about them” they’re in the top 12 playoff. We have to get over it. We’re college football fans. Of course SMU being in the playoff is going to be discussed. But as for their performance….it was expected. They got super lucky with their schedule this year. Just like Indiana. If you plugged Memphis or Tulane in their spot, they would’ve done the same thing. Their QB is no better than most QBs we faced in the AAC this year. Our QB was as good as him. That’s just the truth. so they were a really good AAC team this year that got a super lucky schedule in a bad conference. I don’t hold anything against them for that. BUT We can’t really discuss them for much longer because the current college landscape is set up to make them a national powerhouse. They have a good coach. He is. And he got them in the national discussion. And they can take that with their money and go on an unbelievable run. Their QB won’t be here next year. Of course he won’t. They’ll pay a better one. Their NIL will dwarf every team in the ACC. I would bet their NIL will be top 10 in the country. Maybe top 5. They’ll have more $$ available than Bama. Arguably UT. What do they need? 4 star DE? 3 top OL? QB? 2 WR? There’s no cap to what they can pay. So we have to move on from SMU. They will be in the playoff a lot. So of course we’ll talk about them because they’ll be in the playoff. But we have to get over it. Are they scum bags? Yes. Of course. They have too much money and they will win. The landscape has changed. And they will succeed because they can pay. We have to hope we break off and do our own thing

      My post was sarcasm. Not only would they have to install a new system, but as I said, they would have get to know the players as well. It’s ridiculous to think it should be done or even could be done.
