Lazeek Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Not basing it on that one game you bunch of idiots!!! ;D ;D ;DThat comment was all in good fun also!!!!Of all the schools in the SLC, HBU likely has the best recruiting base other than UTA!!!!! Now that they are adding football, they will be able to get good kids. Just like UTSA has been able to do, even though they are moving to the WAC!!!Have any of you ever been on HBU campus???? It is very nice, it is small, but very nice. There facilities will be as well. I agree about there current gym. I know of 20 area high schools that have nicer gyms!!!!

How does that help Lamar and the SLC as a whole? The Louisiana schools in the SLC can't find enough talent because there's so many FCS and FBS schools in that state. With UTA thinking about starting up football in a few years the same thing could happen in Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puddin tane Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Incarnate Word would be a better pick up than HBU---I've read they are wanting to join the SLC in a couple of yearshttp://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/article/UIW-s-football-goal-Division-I-2175261.php-they are wanting to move up-have nicer facilities--nothing enormous, but nice-major growth in last decade , up to 8,000 undergrads-[b]Owner of the N.O.

Guest beechnut Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I watched a d-3 school beat HBU by the name of ETBU. Tonight on the local news they announced football is coming starting next July. I talked to some folks out there last week and their numbers are down so where is Dr Sloan getting the money? Where are they going to play the football games Tully? :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geezer Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 TA&M CC might be why HBU got in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
