    Increased attendance and perception should be our biggest goals. Winning against TCU will help with both regardless of were we land.

    Revenue sharing should be more, but as I said we have some bills to pay first before the increase takes effect
    I think you are exactly right here, I beleive more of the "casual" fans will be a lot more interested in a match-up between us and Rice or Tulsa who they have at least heard mentioned once or twice on TV as opposed to New Mexico State.

    You would think.

    But we've shared a conference with those particular schools before, and attendance wasn't anything to write home about.

    I am absolutely convinced that the Rice game in 2001 was the highest real attendance we have ever had for a WAC home game.

    Very True, but alot of things have changed since those teams left the WAC. Although there is still more that needs to be done I think Tech leadership has reached the point where they will do more to take advantage of those regional rivalries than they did before.

    I cannot dismiss the thought that a '99 football win over SEC Champ Bama coupled with a Final Four Lady Techsters team (remember those?) did make a difference in the WAC's view and selection of us...

    But its a long time till the end of January first of February and things could change - and we could be back on the outside looking in if a wrench is thrown into the works -

    On a scale of confidence between 1-10, I'm hovering at about a 7
    What makes your confidence level so high?

    Son is going there now, so I have been down there a number of times over the past couple of years. They do have a vision and are working very hard to obtain it. Falwell is great at fundraising.

    Keep dreaming guys, we will not get an invite to Big East or Big 12 and even if we did, we would start losing most likely and not get the support we need. Right now I like he move to CUSA the best.
