Coincidence? I think not. These oil companies are absolutely killing it right now. If you ask them about the high gas prices, they will give you an aw shucks, it's Russia, COVID, labor shortages, Joe Biden's fault. Hogwash. These fat cat A&M boosters are eating good and making it rain on these high school football players. So think about the Aggies when you support their football program while dropping a C-note to fill up your F-150.

Yes
Oil companies are just now rich, just now.
Actually you are kind of clueless. O&G has been in a down turn for over 7 years now.

Commodities run in cycles and if you don't prepare then you're up isht creek. Ask Houston how the 1980s was.

This is an ignorant post, and you should do some independent research and ask people that are in the oil industry how bad it is right now.
It's difficult to drill anything but deep offshore because feds have put an extreme restriction on banks loaning money for oil and gas ventures.
So you have to find a group of private investors that are willing to back the prospect.

Look dont question me on this, I got my GED in Chemical Engineering and worked at a BP for two years. Seriously tho I'm trying to attack A&M here, the oil companies are just collateral damage. You're getting off point.

Yeppers
This is the state. And even deep water is hurting bc those projects costs a lot more.
A&M boosters make money in a lot of other areas than O&G. Moving to the SEC got a boost from donors. Hiring Jumbo got an additional boost. Texas saying they are coming to the SEC gave another a boost. And I have no doubt this crap Saban pulled is going to provide another boost.
Please by all means, other schools keep doing things to galvanize our fan base!

Cam turned out okay for yall, no? No telling how many innocent trees were destroyed by Yella Fella for that natty.

Programs have been "making it rain" for years. Oil isn't the only profitable industry in the country. The problem here is that a&m showed up like new money with all of this grandiosity and just laid it all out there for everyone to see. This was an incredibly stupid move, but you can understand it given the desperation for relevance that a&m feels everyday.

Wow that’s some conjecture.

This is a football message board and not a graduate program you dumbass. Pretty much every single post is conjecture.

Saban would be proud of you. Maybe you should become a Bama fan. Did you read it in the paper? We’re those your sources?
