On North Texas not being able to find a hotel in Baton Rouge for Saturday...

“That’s disappointing. I hope that they’re not too inconvenienced. I hope that they find a comfortable plan to get here and play. I understand why. I think the governor signed a bill into effect that says that no one can take you out of your hotel room is you’ve evacuated, need a place to stay and are paying your bill. I do understand that hotel rooms in this state have become a commodity and that those without power are gobbling up those rooms with power. I hope that our opponent isn’t terribly inconvenienced, and I mean it sincerely.”

The team is staying in New Orleans and busing to Baton Rouge.

What arrangements were made prior to the hurricane ? I made hotel rewervations about 6 months ago. At RV's suggestion, I called to make sure I still had reservations. I did. No problem.

I believe the original plan had the team flying back home after the game on Saturday night. It sounds like they are trying to find a place to stay on Saturday tnen fly back later. That is smart and the safest thing to do. I hope it can be made to work.

North Texas officials were informed Tuesday that the team hotel was no longer available after Gov. Bobby Jindal issued an executive order last week to clear up hotel space for out-of-state utility workers who have converged on Baton Rouge to help with recovery.

...I did not see where they were "preparing" for NT, but I had visions of them running a few gassers and then spending the rest of the practice time in the players lounge playing Madden football on the PS2 and sipping on gatorade while foam footballs are being flung around the room!!!
