With the football program declining, the basketball program still a dump, and a down year in baseball. Is the program blaming the old AD? Why does your program ruin good coaches?
What is the Aggie opinion on this?

Regardless, according to Forbes anyway, they are the most valuable college football program so that in itself is incredible when you look at them vs actual bluebloods

The surge in contributions is the Texas A&M faithful's response to fundraising efforts started in 2014 to fund some major construction efforts: Kyle Field underwent a $485 million renovation that made it college football’s third-largest stadium, and another $68 million was put toward building new stadiums for softball and track and field.


It's temporary. Still impressive. Must be terrible to spend all that money with terrible returns.

Well taking Ross Bjork won't help. They could've done better with the new AD

Since 2007-08 we've finished in the directions cup:
12
13
6
8
9
5
10
17
12
12
10

Only Florida (maybe UGA?) can top that in the conference.

Aggies end the Gators run of 12 consecutive Gatehouse Media Group All-Sports Awards.

The previous AD was helped out the door when another offer came. Outside of money whipping other coaches, he didn't do all that much. If its just a matter of throwing money at someone then any AD can do that. Basically we held on to Sumlin and Kennedy too long. That is the AD's fault. Its going to take some time with Jimbo and Buzz, but they'll be afforded the time. As for baseball, RC is right in the middle of very good and not elite. We've been to 13 regionals in a row. Over that time we've racked up 7 conference titles, 6 supers regionals, and 2 trips to the CWS. Good, but not good enough.

Not really. A&M being irrelevant and un ranked is pretty much the norm. FSU, Tennessee, Nebraska.... you can say have declined because they were for real at some point.

It's funny how every time someone gets the best of you, it gets chalked up to "it's a sip"....don't you know at least half the college football world hates you?

How much do you charge Texas and LSU to rent that real estate in your brain?

Gets the best? Nah. It is just very clear who when something is coming from a sip. They're all the same. They've had the same talking points for years.
