The guy made no excuses and admitted the OP was correct, and you slam his nose right into his own post. I can’t stand the Aggie posters on this site - I think they’re annoying as hell. But if our fans continue making posts like this, then we really can’t complain.


There are a subset of posters spanning nearly all teams on this site hanging around that, well... let's just say they deserve each other.

As for the OP, yeah. Any of us that have been around A&M for any length of time know it. We've lived it year after year. Most of the time it's been because our AD always cheaped out on the program. Also-ran coaches, half-assed facilities projects, cheap ugly stadium upgrades, etc.

I know y'all get aggravated when we bring up how much we're investing in our program, but (aside from the obvious trolls) we talk about it mostly because we've been waiting so damn long to see our Admin actually invest what's needed to compete, and we're happy as hell finally see it happening. Not because we are trying to rub anyone's faces in it (again, aside from the obvious trolls).

Now we just have to see if it'll pay off on the field. Looking forward to the next few seasons.

Also, it's a bit cherry picked to say conference titles have always eluded A&M and only discuss Big 12 and SEC eras, when A&M put up 6 outright SWC titles in the decade immediately preceeding formation of the Big 12 (really 7, but we were on probation in 94, so the second place teams split the title).

Winning a conference outright 7 times in 14 years isn't nothing. We've had some good runs here and there. But the last 20 years have been pretty rough overall.
