“I learned this as a young, 33-year-old athletic director: VMI people are brilliant. They come to a meeting in a three-piece suit and they leave their brains at home. There are some schools that are more than that; A&M, to a certain extent, had more people like that. They would say things and do things that are mind-boggling.”
"There are some things that I felt because of my ethical standards I was not a good fit. I felt if I had to do it again, I would probably do a lot better job of researching it."
Basically saying A&M leadership is dumb and unethical.

A&M is a weird place, with half the fans still harboring the ideologies of the past.
Things like having to be in the Corps go be a student and not admitting coeds -- are all part of their history, and there are many fans that remember that. They didn't let women go to school there until the 60's, which coincided with ending the mandatory policy of joining the Corps.
And all their weirdo rules surrounding the cadets and so on. It's its own culture and a lot of people don't get it. They used to make fish walk in the gutters, and they weren't allowed to use the sidewalks. All sorts of nutty shite.

This seems like a thread a longhorn fan should probably stay out of.
