Just ordered my annual Bull's shirts(say that fast) from the campus bookstore. Had an interesting conversation with a nice guy (poss mgr). He was telling me that a company by the name of Follett is assuming management. They will expand the Adidas line along with other things. They will make it more Alumni friendly( Alum Assoc discount) during the checkout process. So hopefully they will get more shirts, hats, etc. in as they are available. You local guys probably know about this change already. He wasn't aware of TBP. Might be nice to have them post interesting specials, new arrivals, etc as it might pertain to alumni if, that is allowable on this site? The only hiccup in this deal is, he is a UTEP grad however, we worked on the Go Bull's concept so I think he caught on. Texas has bulls so it should be a no brainer.

I'm always amazed at the irony of people looking for cheap.  From gear to seats to fees.  However, when it comes to an OCS cheap will not do.  Amazing how when it's "my money" I'm fiscally responsible

All it takes is one misplaced squirt of mustard to ruin that payback calculation.

Good to hear.  We usually hit up the bookstore to restock on gear before the start of football season.  The alumni discount has been nice.

Well Barnes and Noble ran it prior, so maybe this change will be a good thing...I'll give them a chance.

I’ve never seen an on campus bookstore with cheap pricing. Just is not going to happen.

Have they always had Tommy Bahama shirts? Love my USF gear but my love hasn't reached the point where I'm paying $150 for a shirt ...

That shirt is timeless and very high quality.  If taken care of it will last 10 year's.  $15.00 a year seem like a good return.  

Go Bulls!

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
