So far Tarleton and newbie West Georgia are the only UAC schools which didn’t announce any signings today. Wonder why?

I did see a Tarleton signee this morning with his post on X but nothing since. He was HS OL 6’6” 330 lb from Ohio.

Really frustrating. We have to play social media detective to learn anything. Maybe things like this will change in April.

UTRGV announced today that they've purchased HEB Park to use as the football stadium. The plan had been to "rent" it, but since the FC Toros disbanded last year it's been fully up for grabs.

So they will only play one game a year at Sam's. Seems like a reasonable compromise for now.

I agree.

Nice! A quick weekend road trip! Same for the HCU game. Very doable.

I may mark the calendar for the first game just to check everything out.

Official statement from the U:

Guessing what this might be, came in the work e-mail today:

"You are cordially invited to a special press conference regarding a historic announcement that will elevate UTRGV. Thursday, March 21, 2024
10:00 A.M. UTRGV Stadium"

Invited to join the Big 12?
Cane's Chicken Fingers opening a booth at the stadium?

Must be one or the other....

Maybe they saw the way the WAC officiating favored one team and they are off to the SLC.

OK, that did make me laugh.

WACfan86 really does have a lot of inside info...probably because he's got a reputation for being able to keep a secret.

Bringing Roy Williams out of retirement as the next MBB coach.

Leaving for the Southland

Holy cow you're not joking! HMMOGOAPS!

And there won't even be a lame duck season, looks like it'll start next Fall.

And after chuckling along with rest of you at the likes of Incarnate Word and Lamar.

Well, I'll miss all of you.
