Interesting. My curiosity is piqued. My guess is we're announcing our admittance into the Big XII.

My bet is on a later model version of the Frisco Cruiser in purple and gold.

That's a lot more likely than any of the ideas that I was thinking of.

Unless we pulled off getting some huge donation, we don't have a lot of money to do much with, so it kinda has to be something relatively visible, yet also fairly inexpensive. The new Rocky suit fits that.

Considering they're showing all different sports, it likely isn't any facility improvement news, since most of those would only apply to one or a few sports.

That was my first thought is the Rocky Suit, I really hope that is not it. I don't think that is that big of a deal. Hopefully it is something better than that.

If they made that big of a production for a new Rocky suit, I will be deleting my account on here. No lie.

A lot of people are saying it might be related to signing day which also happens to be tomorrow. We'll see what happens.

Everything is on the table. Maybe some FCOA bucks for all student athletes?

Damn, I have been watching too much TV news lately. :?

The proposed Performing Arts Center turns into a new Western Hall?
