re: Texas A&M is still the little brother school

A&M is about to become THE SCHOOL in the state of Texas. Anyone that pays attention to football here realizes it and recruits are catching on. Yes, Austin is much more appealing than College Station... But let's be honest, would you rather play for Kevin Sumlin or Mack Brown right now? And who would you rather play with, Johnny Heisman or David Ash?

So you think that Mack Brown & David Ash are permanent fixtures at UT? One of these guys has 2 years left and the other has none. UT will not easily relinquish its position as the premier football program in Texas. Without question, A&M is having a much better year and is more impressive as a team, but as you have seen from last year to this, that can change in a hurry. This isn't the 1980's again, when Texas allowed the program to sink to mediocrity for almost a decade. There is a lot more at stake now. It just won't happen. Both A&M & Texas can be highly successful at the same time. It just hasn't been done before. But don't predict the future by relating to the past. It is no longer a reliable predictor.
