More Texas Recruitement Info

woot. At least no one is saying those that couldn't get into A&M and UT go to Tech [not the case for me, I prefer the Lubbock setting over Austin].

Here at Tech we hear that Texas State, U of Houston and [of course] Tech all have chances of being the next flagship [and I agree that either Texas State or Tech should be next]... actually I read an article that pointed out the strengths and weaknesses of both. Besides those schools, I think many people do leave out UT-Dallas [it was waaaaaaay too close to home for me...]. They do have a strong engineering and medical program [I think....] which is due to their close proximity to TI and the "Silicon Valley" in Dallas and various hospitals.
As for UNT, I don't think they are flagship material [I don't even think Tech's there yet...] but with more funding who knows? Their engineering program is not well established, but they have a really strong Music program. Not trying to pick a fight, I think they need to work on bringing up strong programs in all other areas before they can be flagship.

I haven't been to UTEP nor do I know much about them to state an opinion
