You clearly have watched about as many A&M games as I have watched longhorn games in the last 20 years, which for me, were the 4 that happened when I was a student. Trolling is fine but at least act like you’re able to recall any rational characteristics of the teams you’re focusing on. Any football fan with half a brain can acknowledge the differences in our teams of the last 5 years, as opposed to the previous three coaching tenures

They prematurely fired Jimbo without a viable back up. Then hired Elmo. What are the odds that Elmo brings a natty to Aggie? I mean seriously. Maybe this is a move to transition and he will be gone by year 3. Who knows? The problem lies with Aggie believing they’re a traditional football power because they’re rich and have shiny toys. Stop being unrealistic and delusional and you’ll be happy with 8-9 wins. That’s your station in life.

I think the biggest issue with aggy hiring Elko is the fact that spell check keeps changing his name to Elmo.

t. That stuff is just what idiots online like to make fun of.>>>>>>>>>>FlyingAggy


So you believe WE are the only ones making fun of your queer boy cheerleaders? Players/friends from other schools never tease anm players about their cult status? Recruits/friends going to others schools never jokingly ask anm recruits if they’ve lost their virginity to a sheep yet?

No I’m sure you’re right, it’s only us assholes online that ever mentions any of Aggy’s most embarrassing moments! Right?

So you say, but Aggy’s mediocre season record says you’re the one with a half a brain.

Their fans seem to be blaming the unraveling of their recruitment class and lack of offers in the transfer portal on NIL. They’re saying that programs like Syracuse and Ole Miss are beating their asses in NIL.


They are trying to pay the note on that big mortgage they just took out...

Dude stfu with this bag game shite. Tx plays that game too you self-righteous prick.
Not nearly to the level of the SEC and your own aggy...and not only after joining the SEC. Do you truly think if we were heavy into the bag game pre-NIL we would have wandered the desert for a decade? Amazing coincidence how all of sudden we're doing much better 3 years into NIL.

One of the co hosts at TexAgs made the comment, the week after Jimbo was let go, that one of Jimbo's biggest problems was that "he never knew who his boss was". The implication being it wasn't anyone in the athletic office or school administration.

Fisher didn’t answer to anyone but those who paid his salary. He thought he could do no wrong. He needed to go

When you're by far the highest paid employee in a state like Texas (guaranteed contract no less) can you blame him for thinking he has no boss?

Here’s the reality on Jimbo. He was exactly what you hired. After Winston he went 14-10 in ACC play. He left Tally in flames. Aggie bought fools gold. And paid a then record amount.

I know, it’s not like he didn’t get paid. They paid him 77m not to coach. Should have ridden it out a while longer. I mean they hired Coach Elmo of the Jimbo coaching tree after all.

Fisher was post-Colt McCoy Mack Brown.

Elko is their Charlie Strong. Very good defensive coach with a very small HC sample size and is making very meh initial hires.

The issue is 100% culture so it's idiotic to bring back a coach that was part of that shite culture. I know they did it with the expectations they could try to hold onto Robinson and try to keep their current players around but it's a stupid approach. Like rust on a car, the program has rot. Instead of bringing in a proven coach and letting them take the time to cut out the rot and do it the right way, aggy is trying to slap bondo over that shite and throw a quick coat of paint on it Maaco-style.

Why are you spending time on another school's fan site? That's your big problem.

It's really becoming apparent that you UT people really are the assholes we have all been warned that you are. It'll be fun watching the rest of the SEC come to despise all of you in the coming years.

We just got fricked with an "Alabama clone" fan base in the conference.
