I don't remember tmc giving us information that was later contradicted. His track record is pretty good. Better than the inside info I have gotten for sure.

I apologize for contributing to the derailing of his thread. It was good while it lasted.

Either way I think it is fair to say that tmc doesn't throw around information to impress us. I think at first he did it to have a conversation with a group of Aggies he liked, and then after the Malik Melt (tm) he has mostly done it correct us when we try to read too much into his statements that aren't full of leaked information.

To be honest I don't give a damn if tmc or anyone has real inside info or not. tmc tries to have real football discussions and even sometimes thinks of the bigger picture like this thread. I appreciate a different and educated perspective, not just from him but from all who contribute.

Actually if I can rant for a minute I think overall we are way too negative about the community on here. The actual "trolls" are minimal to none (I don't think anyone is purposefully trying to be annoying which is what a troll is), and overall we have pretty indepth conversations even if the information we discuss is hearsay. I appreciate this board and realize that it very well could be full of "let me tell what is special about Aggieland" Aggies that you normally run into.

Sorry for all the words.

I actually enjoy for the opposite reason. This board isn't filled with sunshine pumpers. For example, go to TA and say that Manziel is a bad NFL QB and you'll get eaten up alive. There's just a time when people forget to take off their maroon colored glasses. This place is pretty level-headed.

In return, he hasn't seemed to take the offense seriously since Kingsbury left (just believed that his system was so awesome it would roll up points no matter what), there are rumors of all sorts of misconduct, and he's still flirting with the fricking NFL. The fact that our fanbase is pissed about this is a sign that that their brains are still working. They answered the call and they deserve to have a coach that acknowledges their financial sacrifices and honors them by taking the job seriously. Hiring a 28 year old and then watching him struggle mightily for two years does not seem to show that commitment.





Agreed. We pay for this fricking circus. At least we can get our money's worth. Right now, the fanbase is pissed because we pay like Alabama but play like the teasips.

Closing the gap on the sips on a $$ spent per win basis.

Trend reversal needed.
