aTm has a 20 year history of finishing 3rd or worse in the Big12 South/SEC West

aTm is the most underachieving football program in America

aTm finishes a comfortable 5th or 6th in the SEC West

No, they don't.

That's debatable.

We'll see.

Tied for first in the Big 12 South in 2010. Oh course you are nothing but hyperbole and bullshite so it doesn't matter.

Meh, I would think someone like a Michigan would win that over us recently. Not many expect much of us, which makes it hard to underachieve.

Great, we will get the red carpet ready for Herman.

They have an 80 years history of being a .500 team, why would you suddenly expect them to change that? If it's one thing that people should have learned by now with CFB it's that not much really ever changes. The same 10 teams have been winning national titles over the past 100 years, with a few exceptions such as LSU and FSU being fairly new powerhouses.

You need to be more specific, because A&M is not a .500 team historically.

We are talking about the same Aggot team that got blown out by Jermery Johnson in their own stadium.

Floor 0-12
Ceiling 2-10

Add another loss because Prairie View's band will blow Aggie Band out (along with everyone else's)

-only SEC program in Texas

what does that even mean? does Florida or Kentucky use that as a recruiting tool? weird to use that as meaning anything, as aTm cannot out recruit other Texas teams

-half billion dollar stadium

the stadium is also weird, non uniform, and looks like like lipstick on a pig

-willingness to pay a coach top 3 money

congrats on overpaying mediocre coaches

-nicest training facilities in Texas

i have no idea, but again, appears this does not translate into recruiting advantages over other Texas teams or SEC West team


How about Championships?

Not a Kentucky fan. A t-sip with a UK logo and a username that is supposed to imply LSU.

Curious what your thoughts on Herman are. I'm personally not a fan, but hes only coached one year, so who knows.

I was all on his nuts when I thought Les was gone. I think he would do really well at A&M.

Hopefully Sumlin gets like 9 wins

Teams in aTm's neighborhood like LSU, Texas, & OU all have Conference Championships and National Titles this Century

With aTm's money, facilities, and being the only SEC team in Texas, how is this possible?

The thread has been civil for the most part and I'd like it to stay that way. I understand he sentiment and normally agree, but let's stay on topic.
