Fair enough, but there was an AQ team available, so I'm not understanding the connection here. I'm sure I missed a comment along the way that will explain the significance of this.

You guys can continue to argue all you want, but if Massaro says we were wronged, you aren't convincing me of anything to the contrary.

I would like to point out that I didn't start this thread or any other "whining" thread and have been pretty quiet on the matter until recently and I'm far from outraged and I'm still defending the Belt...just not Benson.

This thread is the perfect combination of mad, extortion, and acrimony. Predicting 7 pages, will read.

Because it basically gives him credibilty and justifies his wait and see approach. It would also prove that Benson was lying to us and ASU about the possibility of both liberty and godaddy being available.

Sounds like the folks running the liberty bowl are the ones who screwed teams over.... they apparently told La Tech that they too were in, only they were told that regardless of whether or not a B12 school was available

stAte fans already hate Benson with a boo-worthy passion. This would send them through the roof. Benson already lied to us about the Q Lee suspension on local radio this year.

I wonder how many MTSU fans think LaT's AD is full of it.

Most Tech fans think their AD is full of it. Actually, they think he's an idiot.

He has not grown in popularity down in Lafayette over the past 48 hours as some things come to light.

What things are those?

1.) His push to increase the exit fee.
2.) His continued promises to improve the television contract (while those with contacts at ESPN and Fox Sports say it will not happen)
3.) His statements in regards to adding Sam Houston and Lamar on this side of the conference

Those were just a few bulletin points Scott Farmer tried to sell to Cajun supporters earlier this week in discussing Benson's plan for the Sun Belt.

Oh, great. Massaro's mad.

So THAT'S your evidence MT got screwed.

Is this the same Massaro who tweeted about point spreads (how professional of an AD to do that), sent out a pic of a newspaper article to p!ss people off and then suggested people in Arkansas couldn't spell??

THAT Chris Massaro

THAT bastion of integrity????

You got nothin.

All he pointed out that your stAte educated people misspelled Tennessee. I wasn't shocked though coming from the shithole of the country.

Ok go ahead and laugh because I am lost as to what y'all are laughing at? If you are suggesting country should be capitalized in that sentence you are wrong. Other than that if you've even been to Arkansas you know I'm right. That state sucks.

I don't get it either, but Massaro DID mispell a word in a tweet that was posted very near when he pointing out ASU's spelling flaw. I believe he tried to say "will" and said "wii" instead. That's what's so funny about it. It was twitterpic'd on gotroytrojans so we all saw it:

I know what I need to know and if you believe in your AD the way we do in ours, you'd be saying the same thing.
