USM's Head Football Coach Todd Monken Just Resigned

[Cool Hand Clyde]

I think it is a bit like looking in the mirror

Hell no. USM is a glorified JUCO.

Say what you want but they know how to run a gameday.

Not overly impressed with gameday at Hattiesburg. What impressed you?

Yet, they do have a school of hospitality and hotel management. Plenty of bartenders in the area.

It was well put together. Felt a lot bigger than the school actually was. Part of that was how close the stadium was to campus.

Yeah....wish Aillet was closer to our campus.

Not saying we have to copy them exactly. I like Aillet where it is. But it was definitely a great atmosphere and a lot of fun to go.

I like where Aillet is too. That was my point. As Tech grows.....to 15,000 students and beyond, a lot of that growth will be west out Alabama Ave. Aillet/TAC are perfectly positioned where they are.

Excellent point.

And my main thing wasn't necessarily about the location of their stadium (although I think it helps). Perhaps familiarity breeds contempt.

Excellent observation. Green for you!

R Walker and the good people of Ruston should change the name of Alabama Ave. To Terry Bradshaw Blvd - today!!!!!

I couldn't believe that when we spoke to Ronny Walker about this issue, he said nobody had ever (there's that word "ever" again) mentioned re-naming Alabama Ave to Terry Bradshaw Blvd.

Now they have. You and I made sure of that.

It really makes you wonder if the leadership in Ruston is just clueless, or is it deliberate? This step is long overdue. We have one of the most beloved --and recognizable-- football names in American history sitting in our alumni base, and we're not taking care of HIM or the UNIVERSITY. Every piece of mail our recruits receive should show a return address of Terry Bradshaw Blvd.

Someone will probably "amend" such an act to W. Alabama and only if E. Alabama = Burt Jones

It's Bert.

[OLDBLUE]

Thans for clearing that up.

I like it as Alabama Ave. Put a building at address 2621 Alabama and at 2928 Alabama.....and/or put a couple little stars on the street sign.
