Looking for I(dio)T’s definitive answer on when the WAC will be FBS.
His answer would probably be 5 years.
My guess would be 10 at the earliest and that’s a maybe. Have you ever watched how slow it takes for construction to get done at Tarleton. Visitor side is still not done as well as multiple other venues that need upgrading. I will say that Tarleton going FBS is in the plans but like every thing else it takes time.
But the food truck court is almost complete.
At least that's almost complete. You need a food truck court.
Maybe we're just not very sophisticated down in Edinburg. Isn't a "food truck court" just a parking lot?

Basically but with picnic tables.

But if the food is good, no one will care it's just a bunch of food vendors in a parking lot. It will become the go to place.

I’m sure that is a major upgrade over cafeteria food. That catfish plate at Montana’s is enough food for three meals in one.
Is it just me or has Montana gone downhill lately? When I was growing up that place was amazing but the last time I went I was kinda disappointed.
Not sure it’s any better or worse. I mean it’s not Babe’s Chicken if that’s what your asking?
If you never wanted to be disappointed just head north of campus about 45 minutes to Mary’s Cafe in Strawn off I 20. I gain weight just thinking about that place.

PSA about Mary’s
Normal human persons should not order the large chicken fried steak. Large means huuuuge.

Different restaurant but same story. After moving from NM to Texas I learned the hard way about ordering the larger portion of chicken fried steak. I could have plated another meal on top of the steak alone. But I still ate it all. And went into a day long food coma. And I’d do it again damnit.
