If by "several" you mean two coaches.


S&C guy was supposed to come as well but decided to stay, IIRC

plotting to do so for months, orchestrating their NIL deals and salaries, while using our resources to do so.

I'm not saying which is true and which is not, but you are saying Schloss was doing all of this behind the scenes for months.. but yet landed some portal players 2 weeks ago..

Every school has to buy new teams every year now.

It’s why I could barely care less about collegiate sports anymore

LSU stole Blake Baker from Mizzou..


Did Baker take his top 3 players from defense with him to LSU?

No, A&M just believed they were above it. Also, everyone is overreacting because it's their rival, no difference otherwise. If A&M hires Mingione, no one will feel sorry for Kentucky.


Of all the comments I have read on here over the last 48 hours (and there have been a lot) this here is one of, if not the most, true statements.

Baseball programs cost more than they bring in with tickets, concessions and merch, even the ones who regularly make the CWS. Basketball breaks even or brings in a little, but football is the sugar daddy of all college sports.

Buying a team means burning money tbh.

What most are missing here is the fact that Schloss has been, and continues to lie about the timeline. CDC has as well.

I don’t care about receipts or links, just look at the timeline they have established.

Pierce news breaks Monday morning, Schloss says that CDC contacted him after the game to offer him the HC position. Then Schloss says he meets with his staff Monday evening to break the news of a potential ‘opportunity’. They fly home on Tuesday, Schloss says he had to think about it. News breaks he is the new HC Tuesday evening, and Wednesday morning Schloss and his staff are at a PC in Austin.

So in 24-36 hrs, a coach gets a job offer, tells his staff, decides to take the job, convinces entire staff to go with him, contracts are negotiated, approved by BoR, and finalized. No sane person thinks this is how it went down, but the POS and CDC tell you not to believe your lying eyes

They have the receipts that PoS moved out of his house on Sunday .... so there goes that fallacy. Apparently he never unpacked after moving out of his house in College Station to the ranch in November.

Cold-blooded ...

A&M is the biggest question mark ever. A&M has more money than LSU and Bama combined and still suck, every year.

Boosters need to like, let their wives do the work or something. They are not getting it done. They are terrible.

After this debacle, I wonder if they may change the rules. Taking a coach is one thing, poaching an entire team seems to defy the whole concept of competitive sports.



Wouldn't be surprised if they don't even make it to the CWS

If there’s one thing I miss about Slive, it was his unwritten rule that the conference wouldn’t poach coaches from each other.
It's June 26. Texas is not in the SEC

Did y'all not poach Duke's coach?


Nov 25th, 2023, Duke Football Head Coach Mike Elko said that he will return to Durham next season, after Duke agreed commitments to the program's assistant coach and support staff salary pools that would "future-proof" the financial deals with not just Elko but the people around him.

NOV. 27, 2023. Texas A&M names Mike Elko as new head football coach
