Yeah I would agree with this. Although, Austin does have an MLS team (but even then, MLS is no where near as popular as the NFL, MLB, NBA, or CFB)
they’re still lame tho…how many recent championships do they have? LOL
the thing is you are threatened because YOUR 1970s Cougar High Commuter School is evolving and you want it back.
You’re like that friend that sees someone improving their life and you criticize them because you see them getting better than you and you can’t keep up but nice gaslighting attempt.
I interviewed the dean of my college at UT but I SELECTED the University of Houston. I wanted to be here but I also made it a mission to improve our University and get rid of old Coog High Dinosaurs like you.
You know there were probably old guard Aggies, similar to you, that WANTED TAMU to NOT be more like a UT Traditional School and keep their All White Male military profile.
History will not be kind on people like you just as in that example…so keep arguing. You make yourself look worse with each post
I have seen the same Ran into UH alums at a bar after a game and asked them if they went. No was the answer. They did not attend games. Local guys.

You’re the only poster that posts that about UH. Multiple times. Again, dotes like you that believe in what other schools say about UH is the biggest threat to UH. You can’t see the progress we have every year. You only see what other schools have with envious eyes and ask, why does UH suck so much.
I that guy is an alternative user for UH1927

Yes, he just changed his name but not his stripes.
I’ll never stop fighting UH haters like you.
I’m no Aggie fan so I don’t know how many championships they have in its history. How many does UofH have in any sport? I admire Aggies spirit. They don’t care if they win or lose. They support the team no matter what. UofH needs more of that on a regular basis.

A&M is a cult
They are bred into that culture as soon as they enter fish camp
Just like Aggie rings, everything Aggies do is cult-like behavior
Is it real culture? Perhaps, perhaps not

Keep Austin weird. In the meantime, we need to be more like The U 2.0 as in “The UofH” and lockdown the city of Houston like the state of Houston the way Howard Schnellenberger did.
Have you heard of the aggie ring dunk
UH has 16 team national championships and 8 individual national championships in golf. Next question.

Nope. I’m not familiar with their traditions. I know freshman can’t walk on the grass, etc.
yes, and there was a time NOT TOO LONG AGO that they did not accept Women or Minorities.
TAMU had to make a conscious effort to become the school they are today… to be more like UT…a Traditional campus.
In the mid 70s, my Uncle attended TAMU then UH and then UT.
The TAMU he went to had NO WOMEN
The UH he went to was 100% a commuter school
and the UT is the one that both have been trying to copy for 50 years now.
UT had the resources to skip the growing pain eras that we are going through now but NO, unlike Norbert, we do NOT need to remain the UH of yesterday.
We have come a loooooong way and still have many more room for improvement.
Doesn’t look like this guy has visited the UH medical school. Or campus in general, he thinks we’re the same school from the 70s. All he can see are the negatives, and doesn’t acknowledge all the progress we have made. Terrible.
I don’t understand what you mean by traditional campus
I’ve already explained to you that UH and UT both have similar number of students living on campus and off campus. The difference is that Austin has historically developed around UT with much more housing/apartments located close to campus.
UH’s situation just ballparking would probably be:
On campus (freshman): 15%
Off campus (near campus): 10%
Off campus (far away): 75%
UT:
On campus (freshman): 15%
Off campus (near campus): 75%
Off campus (far away): 10%
you keep on making it an argument about education…that not what we are talking about…lol
We are talking about creating a family atmosphere…of life long UH connection…of a college experience that high school students want to go…hope to go to.
THAT has far more impact on their lives than just a degree…they leave with a family network
The Med School is great but that’s not what we are discussing here.
So, when 90% of our alums have NO DESIRE to ever set foot on campus again, stay involved, donate, or support their sports teams…we have a major disconnect.
THAT is the goal…not a picture of graduates who never set foot on campus again.
WE have PLENTY of those…i meet them every day. In fact I meet so many of those type of apathetic Cougars that it makes me sick.
