Is there anyone here........

[JayTheClown]

A fan of a college team, but didn't attend the college. I'm sorta a college whore. I went to SMU, LSU, Syracuse, and a summer session at the University of Illinois Downtown, but I consider myself a Texas fan. Is this wrong?

Is there anyone here with the same dilemma?

[DMX7]

You went to four schools?

[DesignatedT]

Don't worry, all of San Antonio is in the same boat... T-Shirt fan capital of the world.

[Fpoonsie]

Grew up in College Station. Moved to Denton to go to UNT for its "esteemed" journalism school. A&M did away with their journalism program years before.

That, and A&M's hella expensive...

[The Reckoning]

woah you didnt go to a&m? craziness.

yeah UT students have alot of animosity toward other college students who rep UT but dont go here. if they arent in college, we dont really care.

surviving the attempt to be weeded out by UT in running the core credit gauntlet is sort of a rite of passage to be a fan.

personally, i only care when UTSA or other affiliated students say they go to UT but leave out the last two letters of the acronym (on purpose).

Yes. When you're a fat beaner in San Antonio who's too stupid and illiterate to attend college, you have no choice but to buy a UT T-shirt at the local gas station and rep UT. When you've actually gone to other colleges (some of which have good DI athletic programs), being a UT t-shirter is worse.

[lebomb]

I only think its lame if you graduated from one college and then root for a different one. Dont be ashamed to root and SUPPORT your alma mater.

Some people only support winning programs as well. No matter if they went to the school or not. They jump ship as soon as said U has a bad season. I have seen about 75% less UT gear in San Antonio since UT had a shitty football season. Dont worry these fans threw on their A&M T-shirts to continue their support. :rolleyes

This describes 95% of uo fans, who live in trailer parks and get their t-shirts from wally world, but have at best an 8th grade education.

[rjv]

you would think with all the UT shirts and caps you'd see in SA that all of UT's grads came to live here. sadly, they are mostly just UT fans who may or may not have ever even attended any college.

I've met people who do the same thing saying they go to A&M when they really go to A&M Corpus, Kingsville, or Commerce. Somehow I find that more pathetic cause who would really lie about which A&M they attend?

As a former member of the A&M journalism school who switched majors before its death, you didn't miss out on anything. It was mostly a bunch of Mrs. degree seeking chicks asking dumbass questions during the entirety of the lectures. To make matter worse, they weren't that attractive and always highly opinionated.

Pretty much identical to how it is in Texas, tbh.

[ChumpDumper]

I kind of understand the animosity, but part of the t-shirt money goes to the athletic program. Makes sense that UT has the highest budget out there.

[jjktkk]

I never attended UT, but became a fan as a little kid. I attended TAMUK for a couple of semesters, but did not graduate.

Yeah. I hadn't heard glowing reviews of the program. I suppose it's not that surprising that it eventually went under.

Still, would've loved to have actually been able to attend and sport an Aggie ring.

Ah, well.

[jjktkk]

Being a San Antonio native, I'm also a fan of UTSA. And alot of Texas schools. So Basically I'm a fan of Texas schools, especially since I no longer live in Texas.

People like this are the ones who deserve to be mocked.

[jjktkk]

Then mocked I am lol. But If I could only choose one college team to root for, it would be UT. Now for pro teams, I only have one team I root for in football, basketball, and baseball.

[Brutalis]

I went to South Arkansas but am a Hogs fan.

[The Gemini Method]

Grew up watching film of Marcus Allen, Traveller, and the history of the Coliseum, so when I went there, I got to see all that history and the life was pretty amazing.

:lmao utsa

You obviously suck Stretches dick, so we will move on with the topic.

Oh, and by the way

Spurs 4 rings > bitch ass My lil Ponys 0 !

Been a UT fan all my life. Will be a freshman this fall.

Congrads!

[LoneStarState'sPride]

My dad graduated from Texas A&M, and my mom from the University of Michigan. Grew up going to Aggie Bonfire and rooting for the Maize and Blue. It was a running joke in my house that we kids could go to any school in the country, provided it wasn't located in austin or columbus, ohio :lol. Obviously, my Aggie allegiances have only gotten stronger now, since I recently graduated from there and my little brother just started as a freshman there as well (and he plays football lol); but still root like hell for UM, too (case in point--couldn't change the channel when I saw UM about to beat sparty in east lansing in bball).

[lebomb]

:rollin utsa :rollin

FAGGOT! :flipoff

[Kermit]

Started at UT in 1997 so I'm old enough to remember when all the t-shirt fans wore maroon.

[Girasuck]

Never attended Utah but I did some work with their golf club back in 2000 and 2001 so I adopted them as my school. I'm now a part time scout for them as well scouting golf and baseball players in the Northern Utah/Southern Idaho area.

well if you work for them, thats a different story :wakeup

go team!

[JoeTait75]

Didn't go to Ohio State but root for them in football. I live in Ohio, the older men in my family rooted for the Buckeyes and their games were always on TV so that's where I gravitated. In basketball I root for my alma mater, Kent State.

To me college football and college basketball are different animals when it comes to fanhood. MAC football is an irrelevant cul-de-sac. Even if you go undefeated the best you'll do is a crappy December bowl game in Detroit against a mediocre BCS opponent. Whereas a MAC basketball team at least has a theoretical shot at a National Championship. They get to play on national TV in the NCAA Tournament against top-flight opposition. It's just a much more rewarding experience.

crofl, OP's one of the biggest bullshitters on the site

no way this is true, imho
