All he does is win.

When I look at OK States ENTIRE body of work I don’t see the same thing as you...... From the final rankings I see 4 wins over teams in the top 25 (Texas, K State, Baylor, and OK) vs. Alabama's 3 (Penn St, Arkansas, Auburn) Then there are each team’s loss...Ok State vs. unranked 6-6 team and Bama's loss to #1 ranked team. Let’s not forget that after Alabama lost (while only dropping to number 3) 4 other teams had to choke for Alabama to get back in. I think the BCS sucks just as much as you do, but this time the cards were in our favor. It’s better to lose early in the season (and to the number 1 team) than late (to a 6-6 team). ...and yes I will be in Nola. Roll Tide edit to add link- good video on how the SEC tried to help out the Big 12, but they didn't want any help https://sportsillustr...ated/index.html

As a Bama grad, I think they should be in the NC game. (no bias ) If Alabama beat LSU and their only loss was at the hands of a 6-6 Vanderbilt team, would they even be in the NC talk? No, so why should OK State when they lost to the Big 12 Vandy counterpart?

conditionals are given out for a number of reasons. One being if you fail, another if you have to repeat a class. If you pass the class with a D but have to take it again because it is a pre req, then you get a conditional.

It's never a wasted effort. So you put in for this board and don't get picked up...Well your phsical is good for 5 more years and you know where you need to improve. Better case, you get picked up...then was it a wasted effort? I always say...whats the worst that can happen, they say not this time? If you don't get picked up, you are right back where you are now.

If you have the money get a few flight hours in too. I’m getting ready to retake my TBAS in 2 weeks, and I am going to see if I can get in about 5-10 hrs before that. Did you apply for the last AD board? You should put in a application for this upcoming board also, it couldn’t hurt.

What did you have trouble with?

Yes, cross-town cadets have every opportunity that the local cadets have. Face time/optional activities isn’t going to get you a pilot spot. You need to be well rounded…good grades decent scores on the AFOQT/PT and be involved at lab as much you can. Let the cadre know that you have to travel and it is sometime more difficult for you to make events, but let them you want to be there and go every chance you get.

I smell something fishy....
