LS Ross prevented the university from being turned into a state run mental institution; but that's not a big deal really.

That being said.

Loftin is definitely a stand out leader, I wish we could have him back.
Not a big deal??!! Use your brain!!! It's not there to soley to occupy space in your head. The head on top of your body! Not the one between your legs you do most of your thinking with!

Still have a copy of the "100 Year Decision" on my bookshelf in my office. One of my favorite books to read.

Not sure if this has been talked about on here yet, but this was recently uploaded to YouTube and I believe it's from TEDxTAMU in March. Interesting to hear some insight on what the move looked like from one of the people in charge. Always fun to know that we basically gave the finger to the sips when they tried to handle our affairs for us.
Rock solid post. I'm so glad you posted this. Otherwise, I likely would'n'tve seen it. So glad I did.

Certainly held back his punches. Called sips condescending. Should have called them arrogant *******s.

He said he heard rumors in 2009. Your post is in 2010, and as I recall everyone was talking about it at the time; Chip Brown had started the media firestorm with his report that Texas was considering going to the Pac a few days before this. And it's been stated that Gene Stallings, at the time a regent, brokered a contact between us and the SEC, and I kind of doubt he was taking cues on what to do from posts on Texags. So this is going to sound harsher than I mean it to be, but what exactly are you trying to claim credit for? I'm confused.

thats not the silly emoticon. It's humble/not humble. But if you think it was funny, at least you amused yourself.
