I really do hope that you guys jump over to the WAC and beat the heck out of Texas State for being so arrogant! Ever since they joined the WAC their fans have been overly arrogant on fan message boards! If only they woud realize that they weren't the first choice to join the WAC. If you guys join and we don't just know that you've got one bearkat on your side!

Not all Texas State fans are arrogant just some of you.  It seems like Texas State is always looking down on LU and SHSU. Whether its academics, athletics or even LU potentially joining the WAC I always hear, “We are trying to get away from those schools. They aren’t our peers!”  But, it could just be a small few that makes everyone look bad though….

Personally, I'll take Texas State fan's over SFA any day.

Actually, a number of Texas State fans want Lamar in the WAC. Much rather them over Utah Valley or CSU Bakersfield. Can't say the same about Sam, but don't take it personally. It's like you get all excited that you're leaving for greener pastures only to have the same dead grass follow you there. See Boise and the MWC. Once they get there; Utah, TCU, and BYU bolt only to be replaced with Hawaii, Reno, and Fresno.

And don't try and act like there hasn't been hatred on yall's side either. Now on Academics, I'll still say Texas State deserves flagship, but I can also recognize engineering is better at Lamar, while CJ and golf instruction is better at Prison U.

I'd almost take anyone over SFA...

As far as academics go, noone really has a leg up on the other.  All are pretty equivalent.  The schools that truly have a leg up are UT and Rice.

Really? LU is a doctoral research university as recently stated by the Carnegie Foundation. But sure, you are right. Jeez, I hope we go over to the WAC to shut at least you up.

All three schools (Sam, TSU, and Lamar) are members of the Texas State University System. They get pretty equal funding. And even though each has their own academic strong suits. They are overall about even.

That is exactly what I have been trying to say.  There is a reason we are peer institutions!!!
