re: Jaden Rashada sues Billy Napier, Florida booster over NIL deal

[quote]Kirby would not be behind this in my opinion. This is the kids family probably.[/quote]
My thoughts as well. NIL is not a process of prestigious law firms and sharp penciled analysts negotiating through an M&A deal. It is a bunch of schmuck salesman Cheesed%^k "Agents" and hanger on family...

I was in attendance for A&M's 73-0 victory over Mizzou in 1993. I just assumed that was going to be their worst loss but apparently not.

re: Kellen Mond cut from NFL team
Posted by Windy City on 5/9/24 at 3:51 pm
But he didn't really. He was playing in the SWC when most regional powers were flat on their as and uncompetitive. He had a very bad record against ranked teams.
1987 - He beat a #20 Arkanas who would go on to finish unranked. Beat a good Tim Brown ND team
1988- Played 5 ranked teams and lost...

[quote]I think most who saw them all play would have guys like Johnny Manziel, Kevin Murray, Bucky Richardson, Ryan Tannehill, Jerrod Johnson (when healthy), Stephan McGee, and Reggie McNeal ahead of him. The really old fans would likely ad Edd Hargett and Gary Kubiak to that list as well.[/quote]

This my thought. Overpaid for sure, but he has too much of a career record to be considered the biggest fraud. He could recruit with the best of them and had a career .750 winning %.

[quote]That was an absolute travesty.

[quote]Don't know that it cost them a "national title" but the '75 Aggie team ranked #2 lost to Arkansas 31-6 and most likely cost the Ags the opportunity to play for a national title.

I don't count 1992 as we would have still finished behind an undefeated Bama team who just knocked off #1 Miami.

There are a few that standout but none would have meant a national title game at least
1998 - We had one close season opening loss to #2 Florida State and were undefeated until we puked one up against Ricky William and Texas at the last second.
We still beat #2 K State in the Big 12 title ga...
