I'm not moving the goal posts, I'm just pointing out that aggies like to talk about their ROTC requirement without regard to the fact that they ended their requirement before LSU ended theirs. aggies like to blame their miserable football past on their military school history without realizing that LSU was a military school before A&M was - and you don't hear us throwing it around as some sort of excuse.
That shite may have worked in the SWC/B12 (although I doubt it), but it will certainly not work with the Old War Skule.

It was just a play on One Hundred Years of Solitude.
Okay, so I was reaching.

Because you don't need to, because this man was born:
I bet a LSU without a Nick Saban in its history would be fighting us for that excuse.

When was LSU entirely Corps of Cadets? I honestly had no idea.
I don't know where you're getting excuse out of simply articulating the fact that times in College Station have changed drastically--a paradigm shift to which few other universities can relate.
We're not the least bit defensive about it; it is what it is.
For historical discussion purposes, it makes sense to frame events around the pre- and post- women and mandatory military service eras.
We're talking about two completely different periods.
Why does that bug you so much?

I honestly have no idea what the deal is with your confrontational approach to this, but I wasn't "making it work;" it's a conversation.
