No, Texas State has not reached Tier One status. Right in the article you cite, it says, "Only three universities in Texas are tier-one research institutions: Texas A&M, UT and the University of Houston."

That said, I would much rather be in a conference with y'all than UTSA.

Looks like the Texas Higher Ed Coord/ Board is just handing out emerging reserach university statuses like candy of late. At one time, it was just the Big 3 of UH, Texas Tech and UNT. Whose next, Tarleton State?:)

From all accounts, the last barrier for North Texas to reach Tier 1 is our endowment coffers of which there has to be at least $400 million in it for us to become Tier 1.

Well, UNT fund-raisers have their work cut out for them to get to that $400 million level, but we seem to have passed all the other criteria.

Good God! When did we become SMU? Geez Louise, Texas State has had much better facilities than us since they built their stadium back in the 80's. It's only been since Apogee opened last year that

What I want is for us to not do to others what SMU has been doing to us for decades......sneering at us for no good reason.

If a stadium with a track is just barely under Apogee, then you and I have different definitions of what makes a great stadium. It is not a bad venue, but I wouldn't say Apogee is barely better.
