I'm annoyed that an event staffer told me I couldn't use my e-cigarette. At the fence behind the wing. In the back corner. 100 feet from a living soul.

Those put out vapor, not smoke. You should be able to use those wherever you want. That's just ignorance...I don't mean that negatively.

I think they are a bit loud, but I have great hearing for an old grad.

Our PA is the soft purring of a sleeping kitten while he naps in the windowsill during a soft spring rain compared to THE JET ENGINE TESTING CENTER that is LaTech's PA.

Holy. Balls. I think some graduate assistant was screwing around and accidentally broke the volume knob off at 11 and they couldn't afford to fix it because their mascot needed heart-worm treatment.

Were you there? WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO BE MY FRIEND??

I sit in section 104 and a man sits in his seat and smokes his. although last night for the first time a event staffer asked him not to. to be honest that event staffer was drunk with "power" he was talking to people all night.

also, there's a saying, if it's too loud....you're too old. ;)

In all my years so far that was the worst.

Actually, no. For the size and dimensions of that stadium, that is a perfect level.

For ways in which to ruin a game day experience by field sound system volume, I'll refer you to the folks in Ruston, LA.

That stadium was THE WORST. Jeez. You're so right.

      Looks like it has been upgraded to be on ESPNU. Or maybe it always was. Nevertheless, national television game. We need a great environment and better outcome. gmg

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      I think it has very little to do with what you're implying, but rather the Belt schools being a cheaper option due to the AAC having to disintegrate before individual entities cut 27M checks. Given the schools that are in the PAC they will be placed just fine in this hierarchy. Also, the Belt is a much better conference than we were in it.

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      Are we assuming a school has to have $27M cash on hand in order to make a more? Not sure that's the case. It's never clear how much really exchanges hands. Did Marshall, Southern Miss and Old Dominion ever pay the full amount to CUSA when they bolted early? It seems that once a school and conference have accepted that separation is a fait accompli, they work something out. Pay over time, give up distributions, negotiate a reduction, etc. Either way, it's probably financed anyway.

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      Interesting questions. I wonder...and this is not meant to disparage any school or conference, but I wonder from a purely perception perspective if some of the hesitancy (if that's what it is), is due to elevating a SBC school over other options? Historically, there has been a hierarchy or pecking order when it comes to schools moving up the conference food chain. Usually, the raiding conference looks to those schools in the adjacent conference (one level below) for replacements. SBC plucks from FCS, CUSA plucks from SBC, AAC plucks from CUSA, B12 plucks from AAC and so on. If the new PAC is somewhere between AAC and P4 and they need to dip down 3 levels to the SBC for a replacement what does that say about their placement in the hierarchy of college athletic conferences? Again, I'm not bashing Texas St or the SBC, I'm just thinking about the psychology of this and the egos involved. I think the overall perception of the conference hierarchy is still out there especially for those that don't follow the moves closely. Separating the SEC and B1G on the top level, the new PAC (certainly WSU and OSU) desperately want to be seen as on the same level as the Big12 and ACC. If their only choice is to elevate a SBC school (and let's face it, a relative newcomer on the scene), then it may be perceived as weakness (fairly or unfairly) and prima facie evidence that they are no longer peers with the B12 and ACC, but with the AAC and MWC.
