They do a horrible job.

I hated how commentators and uninformed writers would talk about Joker being on the hot seat, and how he just needed time to turn the program around. That you couldn't give a guy just 3 years at a place like UK and expect him to win.

Even though the Joke inherited a UK program in the best shape it has ever been, he ended the longest bowl streak we have ever had. Then each year his teams got steadily worse in every way.

Yet many members of the media acted like we ran the dude out of town.

When A&M joined the SEC, the national media and Texas media pretty much raked A&M through the mud nonstop for months.

It's been pleasant to see some positive press for a change.

That was the point of the move - to improve and increase the Texas A&M brand nationally.

The success on the field this season has really helped in that regard...
