Who is beating their chest little brother since 1876?

Stating facts is not necessarily chest beating. Which facts offended you? If none then why post on every Aggie thread? Obsession?

Once again, you do not have a $10 billion endowment. That is system-wide and shared with the likes of Prairie View A&M.

Your academic budget is $1.88 billion and your athletics budget is $147 million.

TEXAS numbers are $3.1 billion (with fewer students) and more than $200 million.

Your athletic revenue and endowment numbers are inflated, much like your crew-cut head. Both will soon pop.

Once again you are a F'ing idiot. The Texas A&M University System endowment is $12.7 billion dollars. The Texas A&M University in College Station is over $10 billion.

One-third of the Permanent University Fund is not the only endowment that Texas A&M has. The Texas A&M Foundation founded in 1953 exceeds $3.24 billion by itself. It is expected to exceed $4 billion in the near future. The Lead by Example campaign is the most ambitious fundraising effort by Texas A&M and the LARGEST ever in the state of Texas at $4 billion. You might want to peruse the 2018 Texas A&M Foundation annual report.

Suck it sip...Texas A&M has a larger endowment than sippy! Texas A&M is not going to rely on the PUF and the state legislature and the U of H and TT folks that want part of the PUF.

Again, if your endowment is so high and you have so many more students, why is your budget ($1.88 billion) a fraction of the UT Austin budget ($3.1 billion)?

I know the answer... Your endowment is a fraction of UT Austin's.

why does your alumnus prefer to play with fake black penises instead of firearms?

It is beyond hilarious that you would make this wild claim that's so easily disproved.



For those struggling with this graphic, "This campaign encompasses all private gifts benefiting Texas A&M, including gifts from individuals, foundations and corporations through the Texas A&M Foundation, The Association of Former Students, the 12th Man Foundation and the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library Foundation."

Yet aggy claims it's all "Texas A&M Foundation endowment." It's not even cash in-hand, and it goes to several entities, including paying off long-term debt for your football stadium.

Yet after all that fundraising, your endowment is $1.99 billion.

Google the Texas PUF Fund.

Also we hold numerous patents and have an extremely deep alumnae base (multiple billionaires who give back in major ways).

Does this mean LSU can finally afford to have the visiting teams band at the games? Was just a few years ago they tried to prevent them because they needed to sell tickets for revenue.

Google University of Texas SYSTEM Permanent University Fund is divided among 6 medical schools and 16 universities. The majority of that fund does not belong to anyone who calls themselves a Longhorn.

This is why the US News and World Report article about endowments by CAMPUS DOES NOT HAVE the University of Texas Austin campus in the top 10. It is not a typo or mistake or bad research.

Top 10 University Endowments by Campus

The article came out October 16, 2018 meat head!

By the way, Texas A&M has greater research expenditures than your liberal whiny school as well. Texas A&M is number 16. You didn't even make the top 25.

Top 25 university research expenditures

This is a 2015 list. Texas A&M's research expenditures are over a billion this year. In June of this year the Texas A&M was awarded a contract to co-manage and operate Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Go home sip! Your piss ant school can't keep up!

So, you're laughing at Texas for sharing the wealth to the betterment of the U of T System members (much like LSU and the other U of L System members)

...and proud that Aggie keeps every dime to look rich, since you can't win at anything else more than once every thirty years.

that fricking tracks.

Fuxk you and every gaping a-hole in Desperation Station.

That’s a quaint opinion.
Do you know how much revenue Alabama football brings in?

You came into the conversation a few decades too late. The point of the post is that the University of Texas lies to the world telling everyone how rich they are. They aren't.

Texas A&M University's endowment is split between 1 medical school and 11 universities. The system spends a lot on their universities. The medical schools soak up a huge portion of UT's endowment. These medical schools are not Longhorns and don't claim to be.

Also, Texas A&M has the Texas A&M University Foundation which was founded in 1953. This endowment alone is approaching $4 billion. This is from generous giving of alumni and has nothing to do with the turds in Austin or the 21,000,000 acres set aside for higher education in Texas (Permanent University Fund).

SEC folks, I hate to keep this fire stoked, but aggy has been lying about their endowment for years (claiming the entire system endowment as belonging solely to College Station).

This peckerwood I keep responding to originally whipped Wiki out as proof, and I shot that down fast. All he has now -- despite evidence taken directly from aggy websites -- is something that little-dicked aggy self-reported (read: they lied out their arse).

Here's that Wiki he quickly avoided.

Notice the distinction between "system" and individual campus.





Here is the true value of aggy College Station's endowment ($1.99 billion, it has gone up since that Wiki page was last edited).

Go ahead, aggy, jump on that wiki page and change it.

Sorry but you’re wrong. I hate to get involved in these type of discussions but you’re spreading blatant lies. His numbers are correct.

I know.

That's a not a very convincing argument.

My graphics are not lies. Other than the last set from Wiki, they come directly from A&M websites.

He conflated a multi-foundational drive that's accrued $3.24 billion in promises (not necessarily assets) with the Texas A&M Foundation endowment, which stands at $1.99 billion in assets in 2018.

That is just one of his many errors.
