Texas State and UTSA to join the WAC conference in 2012

I think Texas State needs a new head coach to be able to compete on the next level but they have a good quarterback to build around with Arndt from Cuero

Great news at least as far as this Texas State (SWT) alum is concerned.

Where can I get in line for the free stuff?

Distance to travel to games, that plus we're not doing too well in the conference we're in. Good thing Boise State is leaving!

Doesn't matter, I wasn't for the name change either. My ring and my diploma both say Southwwest Texas State University and I'm proud of it!

And life goes on . . . . . . .

I understand, my uncle and great aunt are both SWT alums as well and didn't care too much for the name change either but when I get my ring in a few weeks I'll definitely be proud to have it say Texas State University!
