Texas has won more national titles than any other athletic dept in the past 3 years ? Y’all realize that football is not the only sport that money from the revenue is spent on, right?


What's this Y'all s***? I graduated from University of Texas did you?
Football is the only sport that people really care about. We can thump our chest about swimming championships all we want but football is the only sport that matters. When it comes to football our Administration has proven recently that they couldn't find a great football coach if one kicked them in the nuts and, until we find one, we should keep our mouth shut.

If A$M was so inclined the athletic director could write a check from petty cash to cover that. It’s no big thing.

Lol yes - I graduated from the University of Texas. Not sure how you thought that was some sort of comeback...?

That is simply your opinion, and I'm sorry it's so short-sighted that you can't enjoy the others. You've never once tuned into a basketball or baseball game?

So you're actively rooting against the coach we have because according to you he's not good enough after only 2 seasons?

Are you sure you graduated from the University of Texas?

That pickle moron is just a Troll he's not a real Texas Fan I need to stop responding to that idiot



I have just about stopped responding to trolls. It's the only way to get people to stop. I don't see the draw. I admit at times I slip up and respond anyway, though.

I love baseball but I'm referring to actual Revenue generating sports. We are in the minority when it comes to college baseball. I love it. You love it. Very few others do.
The fact is when it comes to college sports only football really matters with basketball far behind.
.....and no I don't think sark was the right hire but you're going to find that out once we're in the SEC. This is unfortunate that this will take you by surprise.

Stadium expansion. When you take in the kind of money we do, you need some debt. Public debt is not like your credit card with the $300 limit. See, there’s this stuff called oil. Stop me if you heard this one. My fellow Aggies are experts on getting that stuff out of the ground and out of rocks and getting it into the tank of your automobile. When you get real good at that, then people give you stuff called money. We have it, you don’t.

Wait until you see the kind of money our former-soon-to-be-present-rival Texas rakes in. I know it’s seem strange that people give money to their alma maters but it happens all the time.

See, the reason you don’t like debt is because you got in debt because you’re broke. So I can understand how someone who supports a school robbing the hospital fund would look askance at debt.

Now for the finale. Wait to you see what we do with that debt. Yes, I know it’s controversial for you that’s why you raised the issue. We do crazy things like actually pay it off.
