quarterly meeting?

[NT Drummer]

I received the e-mail as well. I had signed up to receive updates (here: meangreensports.com: A New Home for Mean Green Football) in September I think, and this is the first one I've received. I guess they don't have any specific news yet, but wanted to let us know that things are in progress. And, to let those who didn't make it to Homecoming know that the the student vote passed.

BTW, Chris Cannon, Associate Athletic Director for Major Gifts, is expected to attend the Houston Meet & Greet tomorrow night. Hopefully he can give us some news!

Per Flyer, wasn't there suppose to be a big roll out of plans, a model, and the like this month? Flyer, any news?

[Guest GrayEagleOne]

I would not expect to see stadium drawings or models until AFTER apporoval by the Board of Regents. I believe that the BOR will eventually approve a stadium but they'll want to see how much this one costs, etc. before the submitted design gets their blessing.

my $.02 is to have the external part of the stadium look like the stadium at the China Olympics. Kind of like a nest. The Stadium could then be call the "Eagles Nest" Any takers?

Quoner,

Where did I knock him in my post? He is the one who said to expect big news in November. He has done a lot, I agree, and that is why I asked him the question directly. Nothing more than just wanting to know if he had heard anything. This was not meant to be mean or disrespectful to him at all, honest injun! Given my track record, I know you would think that. Man, now I have to give myself 50 more lashes. Give me a break, please.

Looks like I'll be handing out roundabouts like candy today.

Stupid using precedent to predict behavioral intent. .

Since the "Aerie" yearbook is dying off, the name's up for grabs.
