Didn't Aggie try this in the 80's and still failed to win anything

We didn't win a Natty but we did:

Win 7 Conference Championships.
Set the All Time SWC Record for consecutive wins.
Had entire Classes of kids that never lost a home game.
Beat Texas 10 of 11.
Beat LSU 5 in a Row.
Beat OU 4 in a Row.

I mean it didn't suck even if we couldn't quite climb to the top of the mountain. The problem was we stopped spending and let those 3 schools run right past us. With the SEC move we started to spend again but it has taken a decade to catch up.

Keep holding on to the idea of A&M "never winning" if you like but the reality is that it all comes down to talent and coaching and having the resources to make it happen. The name on the jersey and tradition means next to nothing in the big picture.
