not that you or any 'sip on the face of the planet would understand the difference, but there is quite a bit of difference between a coach who is being pursued after the season, and one that is secretly leaving his team three months before the end of the season and recruiting his players to another school in the middle of the pinnacle of their season.
I completely agree with you, if that's what actually happened.
There's been no evidence presented that Schloss was recruiting players to Texas, seems risky if he was.
For the record, based on the timeline, A&M absolutely pursued Elko during the season.

Coaches come and go, and these days players as well. Anyone who has issues with that model should probably give college sports a rest.
You dumb tiger frick. Elko was the defensive coordinator at A&M for years. He loved it at A&M and the only reason he left was for a head coaching job. Schlong cheated on his wife, multiple times, and did all kinds of shitty thing to players during his time at TCU and A&M. Schlong never coached at Texas. Your comparing apples to oranges.

This misses the mark. Coaches leave every year. The difference is working for school B while being employed by school A.

That's totally different from saying "Nothing has changed" and then the VERY NEXT DAY leaving for his team's MOST HATED RIVAL.

Elko clearly wasn’t the guy until that middle of the night. Schloss had agreed for weeks (months). While that is scummy in its own way. He also had every opportunity to leave the right way. Don’t lie. Talk to your players. Timeline of the exit stays the same.

ELKO WAS STILL.EMPLOYED BY DUKE WHEN HE WAS BEING TALK TO IN BACK CHANNELS FROM AM...
Am I taking crazy pills? This is just like what's going on in America. The Democrats can't see that Joe biden is a bumbling idiot who doesn't even know where he is half the time, but HATE THAT OTHER GUY SO SO MUCH THAT THEY WOULD NEVER EVER VOTE FOR HIM. But they will tell you straight to your face there's nothing wrong with Joe and he's fine and obviously did better in the debate last night. There is no fricking difference in talking to a coach during the season and then that coach leave right after the bowl game/ championship game. It's fine when you do it. You can money whip whoever you want, but by God don't you dare coming asking about our coaches. Cause that's mean. And it's just different when it's that big meanie who wears burnt orange. It hurts more.
Shut the frick up about it already. Jesus I'm tired of hearing you whine and cry about this. If you don't like it so much then beat us on the baseball field next year. Or football field. Whatever.

How many games did Elko coach after agreeing to become the A&M head coach?
Zero
How many days was he the Duke head coach after agreeing to becomes the A&M head coach?
Less than one if memory serves.
If you really can’t see the difference then there is nothing anyone can do for you. You’re just that dumb.

Did you even read what I wrote? He was talking to them DURING THE SEASON. Meaning while there was more games to be played. So yes he did. Strike 1. There is absolutely no difference. It feels like a difference because it happened to you and it's Texas. I'm not gonna change your mind just like you won't change a democrats mind about that bad orange man.

Great post

Just trying to keep it real here, but you realize that looks a lot worse for ATM than it does for Elko or Schloss, right?
The fact that you have a coach who was willing to leave even if they won a championship is pretty damning. Hell, I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of a coach who lost a championship game EVER leaving for another team the next day (much less a rival). It suggests that something is really off inside of ATM.
The rest of this is just puffery and sanctimony. No one is upset at Aggie fans for being pissed off. Hell I’d be massively pissed off about it if the tables were turned.
What everyone is getting tired of is pretending that Schloss is some kind of lone wolf slimiest of all liars in the world and their proof is to pull out a microscope and try to find the tiniest hair follicle difference between how your AD and Football coach lied to their previous regimes when they left suddenly and how Schloss did it to you where the “clear evidence shows that Alberts and Elko are both moral leaders and Schloss is obviously a maggoty slimeball”. That’s exhausting and completely intellectually dishonest.

I’ll go one further. You’re dead right, and IF Texas and Schloss did recruit for Texas while employed at ATM I believe that all involved need to face the consequences. Don’t shield them—it would have been dirty and dumb and they have it coming whatever those consequences are.
I just don’t see any good evidence that it is at all true, and when evidence emerges that Schloss and Alberts were sideways and it wasn’t as unprovoked as it first seems (see Dallas Star Telegram article) ATM fans claiming “misdeed!” Won’t even acknowledge that it might be true.
Runs in a paper — scam!
Claimed on a forum but a long shot— gospel!

Aggies keep saying this and I have to keep telling you that there's no proof that actually happened.

You are correct that none of the proof has been posted for the public to see. There are enough people saying it exists to blow your assertion out of the water.

Dude… c’mon. This cannot be your first time on the internet. Saban isn’t going to Texas. OU isn’t gonna get sanctioned for stealing signals with Venebles. The NCAA isn’t going to give major sanctions to (insert any major power program) for (insert any tampering with recruits accusation). It never happens. Hell, Baylor’s rape campaign still couldn’t get the NCAA to wake up.
It’s just bitter bones for Aggies who are understandably upset. Y’all lost a championship game (it hurts, trust me, I still believe we should have beaten Bama if Colt didn’t get injured) and a coach in 24 hours. That’s a lot, and ever more so for Aggies because you’d have to be 95 years old to have felt any pain at the last championship game you went to. it sucks. Man does it suck. Hurts like hell. Makes you want to punch a tv or scrape decals off of rivals cars in grocery store parking lots. We get it. Welcome to the big stage. Sucks way more to lose up there than it does lower down.
But man you gotta let it go. Drop the death threats, law suit wishful thinking, threats to injure players and fan next year at the stadium (I’ve read it all from Aggies in the last few days). Just sit down and take your medicine and then get back out there and work to get back there next season.
That’s what the big boys do. You wanna be in that group? Then join us.

Okay, bro. Whatever makes you feel better.
I remember when OU fans said the same about Lincoln Riley.
