The SEC is tougher than that shite conference you left, and even in the Big 12 you weren’t good enough.


They convinced themselves via groupthink that coming to a better conference would make them better.

Somehow Slive fricking up our beloved SEC would magically want to make recruits be part of thier overtly homosexual cultish traditions.

Sumlin is 3-12 against Division Opponents at home


So it sounds like the A&M problem isn’t with the coach as he wins on the road - but can’t win at home. Sounds like A&M problem stems from its stadium, its home crowd and/or some sort of strange game day traditions that weird out the team when they play at home. Keepa better than average coach by Aggie standards. Fix the bad mojo jinxing your team at home.

Sumlin literally changed the entire Kyle Field environment upon arrival and the AD acquiesced to every change he wanted.

They have everything they need to be elite other then a coach . They need a coach to coach up the players .

This. And it's been the case since Sumlin was at Oklahoma and then Houston.

60-16 if he was a good coach


So in its total history, A&M has never had a good coach as no Aggie coach has sniffed anywhere close to a 79% win %? With no history of ever having a good coach per you, what makes Aggies think they should get one? Better to keep your best coach ever maybe instead.

True. But you also got blown out by Jeremy Johnson at home in front of your fake RoTC crowd.

Just because someone hasn't been historically where they want to be is no reason to give up trying!



For example, just because Alabama has always been among the fattest and least educated of all US States, I still support yall trying to cut back a tad on the number of illiterate, fat-arse, redneck, bro country listening morons in your population.

Be careful what you wish for, change isn't always for the better.

And every Aggie poster celebrated everything Sumlin changed upon his arrival because it was correlated to more winning than Aggies ever dreamed about when joining the SEC.

Perhaps worse thing that happened to A&M was catching Bama napping after its close emotional win vs LSU in 2012 and that fluke win created unrealistic expectations by Aggies that they had arrived as SEC contenders. Aggies don’t suck - just not going to consistently challenge top 4-5 SEC schools as a contender and not likely to consistently outperform others in SEC aside from maybe 1 or 2 schools by changing to any coach willing to be the HC at A&M.

Sorry.

you must be very young. you aggies are still in the top tier of programs caught for cheating by the NCAA. so is auburn. I don't know if this is still a fact, but not long ago, y'all and auburn were tied for #1 cheaters in the land. you haven't been caught in a while so maybe you've cleaned you act up.

I think Bruce Feldman is good buddies with Kevin Sumlin.

Of course he's going to stick up for his buddy.

Only SEC record mayters. Not games against Rice, Sam Houston St, SMU, Nicholls St, PVAMU, etc.

I think Paul Bear Bryant was the best coach A&M ever had.
