    Charlie has brought down a long list of rules that will change
    the Longhorn program for the future.........


    1. Players will attend all of their classes and sit in the front two rows of all of their classes. GAs, academic folks, position coaches will be checking constantly now.
    2. No headphones in class. No texting in class. Sit up and take notes.
    3. If a player misses a class, he runs until it hurts. If he misses two classes, his entire position unit runs. If he misses three, the position coach runs. The position coaches don't want to run.
    4. No earrings in the football building. No drugs. No stealing. No guns. Treat women with respect.
    5. Players may not live off campus anymore, unless they're a senior who hits certain academic standards. The University will buy out the leases for every player currently living off campus and put them in the athletic dorm.
    6. The team will all live together, eat together, suffer together, and hang out together. They will become a true team and learn to impose accountability on each other. The cliques are over.
      This is just some of the rules ............................

    Rod Babers said today that Strong's new rules aren't too different from Mack's.

    We shall see...

    As a college educator, the worst students I have are athletes. Regardless of whether the athlete is smart or stupid, save for those nerdy cross country runners, they almost all suck.

    And I don't teach anything as difficult as college math or science.

    interesting to see how this will work at UT. UT being such a stoner and slacker place, hence why I'm a proud alumni, but hopefully this new coach can create a winning culture there. I've been on the fence about hiring Strong but maybe the program does need to bring down the law more.

    could be babers is covering his and mack's ass, or it could be that there are the written laws and the laws as they are actually applied (sort of like the ten commandments)

    "UT being such a stoner and slacker place".... da fuq? I can understand the stoner part, but slacker? Just about every program (business, engineering, advertising, geology etc.) is ranked in the top ten nationally.

    I think he is referring to Austin in general.

    So the team won't really live together.

    Senior off campus cliques are forming as we speak.

    this. but it seeps into UT as well. I busted my balls there, graduated with good grades, but in my experiences, there was a stoner and slacker vibe. Of course that could just be who I hung out with and my own personality. West Campus felt very pronounced in this regard. But the school is huge and eclectic so that's just my experience.

    yeah right. never joined one of those. I was Riverside almost the entire span, even lived at the gloriously terrible Metropolis. Some of my best friends lived on West Campus so that was my main exposure.

    I regret not going to those street vendors. I've been to some since then though. Whenever I went into HEB, I was like the sole gringo at times. I sort of hated Riverside, but I ended up staying there for like 3+ years so I guess I just got used to it. I don't spend as much time in Austin as I like but driving through there, it seems Riverside is getting more classy. It was a hole when I was there. Oh well, +1 for gentrification.

    for the best tbh. I remember at Metropolis, my room was by the pool and I heard some yelling and then what sounded like firecrackers, but then I realized those were bullets so I hit the floor because those walls were beyond paper thin. tiest place imaginable imho. though because of thin walls you could hear the hot neighbor getting banged tbh. the next day I heard from front office that some druggie was so high they started firing a gun by the pool but cops were there and about to blow this dude's ing head off. like I said, hole. good they are cleaning it up.

    sorry for thread derail. go Charlie Strong
