Re: What happened with Wren?
I miss Ruston all the time. I met the best people there. There’s something about the place you grew up. I was raised in minden and left at 18 for Tech. The next 4 years, I really grew up. I met different people and learned how to think for myself and prioritize what I want. When I go back I drive around town and kinda re-live some things.

I'm the same way. I miss Ruston and would love to move back some day.

People would ask me 'Ruston was dry, what did you do?' Then I would tell them about the things we did like get together at someone's apartment, go to Funroe, go to Wil-Mart (moment of silence) or out in the woods etc and have all these stories and how I know all these people to this day.
Then sometimes those same people who asked would say kind of regrettably 'Oh, I just went to the bars in my town but we never did anything like that'.
This is really good.

Minden to Ruston is a little different than DFW metroplex to Ruston....Ruston is an upgrade from Minden :). I'm sure the red dots will follow....

Yep, A guy from DFW wouldn't want to enjoy Top Golf, Dave and Buster's, a decent round of mini golf, go-karts, multitude of parks, reservoirs…….it's all about bars and alcohol! And yes the high school cafeteria he attended had more food choices than La Tech! But yet we fuss when DD says we sucked when he arrived! We are better but still have a ways to go! Come on Dawgs let's keep moving forward! It will take the entire community of Ruston and La Tech to succeed! We have an unbelievable amount of valuable assets
(graduates). We can make it happen. Go Dawgs!

This is truly a sad day at LA Tech. I hate to see this happen worse than any other recruit from this year's recruiting class. But as someone else mentioned, Wren sure didn't give it much time. We're still less than 2 weeks into fall camp.
HD, when you moving back to Homer? It has so much to offer over McKinney and Franklin.....comeback to your roots! You can eat at Moon's, Port au Prince, and Griff's.....
Re: What happened with Wren?
The kid went to Horn High (mesquite, tx). The town isn't that nice, actually it sorta sucks. I visit every few months to visit family. We would have to drive to Forney for decent breakfast.
Ruston > Mesquite

Really? What’s available within 30minute drive from Mesquite vs. a 30 minute drive from Ruston?
Re: What happened with Wren?

Any city without a Griff's is automatically worse than one so blessed.

You will hang for heresy but I admit the sherbet is good.

When Griff’s and Baskin Robbins join forces they will be better than Braum’s, until then Braum’s is the GOAT! Probably the whole reason Wren left in the first place, there wasn’t a Braum’s!
Re: What happened with Wren?
Who goes to Braum’s for sherbert?
