MAC West or MAC straight up, 2011 Toledo was MAC West-Co Champs for going 7-1.

So... UT lies on their business cards and recruiting pamphlets?

Good to know.

Do you call the Glass Bowl a Dome, too?

It really is not that hard to comprehend - UT has a total of 16 MAC titles. 10 Conference titles, plus 6 Division titles. Cheesy? Yes. A lie? No.

Man, people are really dumb.

How do you claim most winning MAC program in that video when it is also not close to being true? (Not even top 3)??

I don't know what you are talking about. The video says one of the winningest programs. And it says 10 championships

So I'm guessing you count every MAC Player of the Week from Toledo and promote them all as MAC Players of the Year.

I mean, you are the *ahem* "most winning program in the MAC".

Directional Fan,

No, we call the Glass Bowl the best stadium in the MAC.

Best Regards.

"We" don't do anything. Did you somehow believe that the fans on this board were allowed to put a recruiting video together? They pretty much discourage that sort of thing-hell, we'd say our basketball team was the best in the nation for the last thirty years. If you have a problem with the video you might address it with our AD. I think we're all a little embarrassed by the BS that is in the video. Ragging on the fans is a little silly, no? Even the video's staunchest defenders admit the playing fast and loose with the facts was "cheesy'.

I think the video is great. I see that changes were made after editing. Making corrections to errors is all one can do. That has been done, we move forward.

The sin no longer belongs to the videographer. It belongs to those who won't let it go.

RE: The Rocket Experience (video)
Finally got to a fast connection. Loved the video: the pacing, framing, choice of action and campus shots and the choice of music, all could be felt. The moire' patterns on the stadium seating along with the music gave an etherial feel to it, though the patterns may have been a result of my screen resolution and not on the actual video.

I really just have always wanted to use "moire'" and "etherial" in the same sentence. I've no idea what they mean.

terrific video.


Re: number of championships

Honestly, no offense to the conference since I'm not a "leave it" guy, I'd remove the references to the conference and to the "team down south" at the beginning of the video. They took me out of it. A more fanatical fan or a player I could see thinking otherwise but as a "newish" fan, it was a distraction. I'd probably keep the conference references towards the end.
