If your niece wants to get drunk every night and find a husband that will make slightly more than minimum wage his entire life, Texas Tech is the place for her
You really should stop trying to blame other schools for things done at TAMU
.
Well, thankfully abusing drugs only means a one game suspension, and you've got perennial bottom feeder New Mexico State.
It'll be interesting to see who carries the ball. Maybe one of those walk-ons will step up and earn a scholarship.
And better drugs.
Interesting what they are taught in these Institutions of Learning.
We're actually staying in OKC (Bricktown) but my Dad is legendary for getting antsy and wanting to be at the stadium hours before the game. Hanging out somewhere within walking distance of the stadium means that I won't get suckered into sitting IN the stadium hours and hours early.

Heh, I'll have to tell her that. She just started Juco this year, and is trying to figure out where to go next. I told her as long as it isn't UT Austin, she would be ok. Darn tea-sippers.

Hey hey, You are taking advice from TTU from an Aggie.
Tech is a good school. The campus is pretty just it is a long walk to about anywhere on campus. The campus is HUGE.
As for stuff to do well it is like any college and really it is get involved. Mostly it is just learning about what is in the area but lets face it most of the time life revolves around the campus any how and one big school to another there is not much that changes in that department.
The walk unless it is a very cold windy day. Personally I liked TTU over the other schools in Texas.
UT was too big.
A&M is a cult.
Tech size and area is what fit with what I liked.
Wow never seen a school rack of 60 points and still loose. I have seen a few 50 points games lost but that was either TTU or the school TTU was playing but at the time TTU had the number 1 rated offence and the last rated defense.

Which JUCO?
Translation: I went where I could get in.
(Not that there's anything wrong with that)

Tarrant County College. I figure she'll probably wind up at UT Arlington because I don't see her going all the way to Lubbock. I've been encouraging A&M, since it's not too far from DFW, and they have awesome school colors.

It's about a four hour drive. UNT is much closer, if you're looking for a public school. Texas Woman's University is also in Denton, and has a beautiful campus.

It really kind of just depends on what she wants to study.
A&M is about 180 miles from Fort Worth (so roughly a three hour drive), but if she wants to go there she should really move to College Station and go to Blinn instead. They have a joint program (affectionately known as Blinndergarten) where you can go to JUCO and earn your way into A&M if you get good enough grades.
There are several good schools in the DFW area. As Tomorrow said, The Univ of North Texas has several good programs. UT-Arlington is actually one of the big up-and-coming public schools in Texas, and though it's a commuter school (for the most part), they are dumping money and resources into the school to change that.
She should also take a look at TCU. Though it's a private school (and thus much more expensive), it's not as hard to get into as some of the others and they do have a lot of scholarships available if they think you bring something to the table.
Tell you the truth I could of gotten in to either school no problem. I choose TTU for the exact reason I stated. A&M is way to cult like for my taste. For the majors I was interested in TTU is among the best in the country.
Try is still in weekend drive home range and the driver can easily be done in 4-5 hours no problem. I have made the drive from Lubbock to DFW quite a few times. I would encourage you all to visit the schools as you get a much better feel for them. I really like TTU's feel. That is the most important part. Each school has there own traditions.
Do not forget to figure in cost of living and in that fact Lubbock is a lot cheaper than others because of how far it is from on of the major cities.
It did not fit my brother but it was because it was way to far from home (600 miles)
We have a terrible record in Norman against Bob Stoops, and typically it hasn't been close after the first quarter (and sometimes not even then), but judging on hw these teams have performed in th first halves of games this year, I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see A&M take a decent (~10 point) lead into halftime and blow it in the third quarter.
Based on media coverage, I thought all games were cancelled for the LSU - Bama game
Nah, just moved up to 2:30
Almost there!
...now I remember why 10 years ago I told myself I'd never drive to Vegas again.. Heh.. Spending three hours in a pretty bad snow storm didn't help, either.
And no, I'm not posting this while driving. Heh. I took the first five hour shift. Now I'm kickin back in the back seat of my car while one of my buddies drives.
^^^^
AT&T's coverage is pretty good!
Cause BCS coverage is nowhere to be found on that map
Ha ha ha!
You're a bastard.
I've been to Vegas many times, but this has been the first time I've been here with just my buddies. Wow. Just, wow. I'm very glad I don't drink. Heh heh.
Dawgs win their scrimmage game over New Mexico State in a big way
Now, for the big game tonight
No, not the Bama-LSU game
The Arkansas-SCarolina game!
As much as I detest Bobby Petrino, I will be calling the hogs tonight
Woo Pig Sooie
