UNLV

I believe there is a 4-5 year moritorium by the NCAA on schools moving up to FBS. A 4 year. It started in the fall of 07, over fall of 2011. UTSA starts football in 2010. Texas st needs to give slc 2 years advance notice or pay $2 Million. There as Lamar begin slc play, some slc teams will be leaving.

Look how messed up the press box is looking. Like a tin tool shed.

I hope they revise a new stadium. The press boxes they are rebuilding looks cheap and sad. A tin roof. C'mon.

Any news on UTSA coaching search.

Rim, If Texas st decide tomorrow to join the Sunbelt. The Sunbelt would take them. They would take 2 additions Southland schools wanting FBS.

When I said 8 figure TSUS, I meant the money already approved.

If we are looking to restoring football to change our perception, we are in pretty sad shape..... Look folks, I am not against football, I am against doing it on the backs on the student body with an additional tuition "fee." If we really want football, let those who want it, pay for it, not the kids, most of whom are working to put their way through college, or they are dependent upon Mom and Dad for tuition, many of which who are working to put their kids through school. Oh puhlease...with a puuuuuuh. We are talking less than $40 a month during school months , $9 a week, or $1.15 a day. How much is a big mac meal? I'll tell you what, that is another $1200-1300 to add to tuition over 4 years, and trust me, tuition prices have shot up like mad over the last 10 years, I know, I have been writing the dang-gum checks. To me, $1200 ain't small potatoes. Maybe YOU can afford it, it is to the point if you have 3-4-5 kids, you just can't afford a college education. And do not preach to me about not having kids, that's really none of your business. Am I tight with a dollar? Yes, I am. I can't see spending $1200 for a GAME. BTW: That same $40 a month could get me an improved health insurance policy at my work. That $40 a month would sure help at Christmas, that $40 would let me take my wife out to a nice restaurant and a movie. I never said anything about your kids so don't tell lies. If the vote had failed, you would insist on us respecting the majority opinion. Please do the same for us. Sucking the air out of this forum won't change the vote.

Everyone is excited about Lamar playing in the slc, yet current slc teams are looking to get out. And when they do leave, and it wont take them 10 years,the slc will not replace them with Texas Tech or LSU. Try Tarleton st and Delta st. Will these teams get the crowd out for Lamar football?

UTSA it is going FBS after 2 years. Texas st voted for FBS SHSU is making moves for FBS. So what will the slc look like in the near future? Will SFA, McNeese, and NW st follow?

Lets hope that it is a lot more than just barely 8 figures if you know what I mean. Lets hope it is at least 2 times just barely 8 figures. Well lets do the math. 8 figures donors + TSUS 8 figures = +$20 Million

It's football man! Yes, I remember the 70s and 80s and the empty seats at Lamar. By 2012, the seats will be empty once again.... Stick that bottom lip in before a sniper take it out.... Lamar Football whoooo hoooooo

Lamar needs to add it to the Lamar sports website.

Beaumont Enterprise reported that number. IF the vote fail... Southland Conference 2013 UT Arlington Mid-western Abilene Christian Centra Ok West Texas AM Angelo State TAM-CC Nichols st Delta st Tarleton st Lamar UC Arkansas

Only 1,000 students voted. Low turn-out means little resistant toward football. Unless students were saying yeah football, then secretly voting no.

I sorta agree with ole Terror except I don't want Lamar playing in the SLC at all forever never.

Any Exit polling...

Look at the teams we use to bring in. UT, LSU, and National Champs Villanova.

Just curious, but is the Montagne attendance record the Lady Cards vs LSU game? I thought it was. But I think Roc was hinting at a Lamar vsd Mcneese game in 85-86 with an attendence of 10,010.

we could use a play in game to pad our 5-5 ncaa record.

Coach, I think their best player is Ford. Focus the defense around him and McNeese shuts down.

Tell everyone you know to tell everyone they know. Tell to give this one game a try. Tell students to come experience D-1 basketball, just try it this time.

Fried Chicken night....And I don't necessary mean Lamar score +100.

the Montagne attendance record of 10,010. Lets help him. Invite everyone you know.
