What do you mean "some day"?

And thanks

So, I guess you guys are officially the flagship?

Not that I'm aware.
The original intent of the "San Marcos" being added was so there wouldn't be a flagship in the TSUS.
Don't think there would be enough votes to get one named (especially us) either because SAM has too many people in high places.

However, I'll keep you posted.

makes sense I always called them Texas St. ever since the SWT switch. It's not like another school used Texas St. where you'd need the SM.

Armadillos??

Should be entertaining..

They were a spoof off of North Texas St. at the time. They played against SW Texas in the movie

Yes, it was even filmed on UNTs campus and stadium.

I can't go back and find every retort about the movie but even the WAC and SBC forums had someone bring it up.

As for the filming locations:
