All I know is I’m kinda worried about the Texas gun laws with Kline and Ole Sarge around. Hope they live in Jersey or some where else.

There’s such a thing as gun laws?

It is disturbing that that's not a basketball score

Whatever dude. LSU will finish in the final Top 10 for the 21st time. A&M has accomplished this how many times? I know only once in the last 30 or so years.

"Outside ROTC, the school must establish a corps of cadets in which all students wear military uniforms. The corps of cadets involves a military environment in which the students live constantly, not just during the school day, and in which the students are subject to military discipline. The SMC must have as an objective the development of character through military training and the regulation of cadet conduct according to principles of military discipline (a cadet code of conduct). The SMC must maintain military standards similar to those of the federal service academies. "
All this tells me is that you can get recognition as a SMC if you have a bunch of sexless dorks dress up in military fatigues, live in campus barracks, do light PT, and march around campus in a simulated military environment like morons without any future military obligation. But...ya know.....if you want to put your money where your mouth is, you can join ROTC.

A&M has 11 Top 10's.. one in the last 25 years.
Last 25 years have not been kind to aggy. Based on how much chirping and attention seeking they expel now, the board may crash if Jimbo can get a sustained run like they had 80's/early 90's.

i dont have a dog in this hunt as i know many UT and A&M fans, however i do think its ironic that when you tell an Aggie about the huge gap in head to head vs UT, they point out that it doesnt count before the 50s because they were an all male school and it wasnt even, yet they claim their last NC in 1939.
Odd
Yeah, that's the problem with any century-old head-to-heads. It doesn't mean anything today, but they love to throw it out there like it's some sort of current measure.
And, I know NOBODY gives a shite about century old results but the fricking longhorns, but since we're on the topic, did you know that for the first 22 meetings, the game was not once played in College Station?
From 1894 to 1911, the game was played in Austin 12 times, San Antonio 4 times, Houston 4 times, and Dallas 1 time, but no College Station. As you can guess, the series started with Aggies in the hole 4-15-2. If that don't matter, fine. If and when we restart the series (hopefully never), they can play us at Kyle for 22 years straight.
After the first 22 away games, we didn't play again until 1915, which was the first game in College Station. From 1915 to 1939, we played 25 times, during which A&M was 11-12-2. Pretty even.
When WWII started, the school's primary focus shifted and stayed that way for the better party of 40 years. From 1940 to 1980, the record was 7-31-2. During that time, the school was nearly closed for at least the 2nd time during its history.
During that 40-year span from 1940 to 1980, a bunch of things happened that changed A&M. A&M President James Earl Rudder (yes, that guy, the Rangers commander at Point Du Hoc on D-Day) pretty much saved the school by changing it from The Citadel to the number 1 research school in the state.
The 30 meetings since 1980 resulted in 15-15.
Aggies-Longhorns
They love bragging about the results they amassed decades or a century ago, when they were basically what LSU is to all the other Louisiana schools.
So, whatever. They can keep their huge head-to-head. In fact, I think it should stay right where it is today.

"Outside ROTC" means outside the 2-day a week plus quarterly field problem CLASS.
For the record, the only school that's not a service academy or a senior military college that can put themselves on par with A&M is LSU, because they gave the world John LeJune.
A&M has a military base named after one of its graduates (Schriever AFB) as does LSU (Camp LeJune)

You are a know-nothing on the topic.

I'm using your own posts. Cadets are not ROTC. Cadets are under no obligation to serve like ROTC. It is a simulated environment, according to your own links. It isn't what you make it out to be to your friends here, or anywhere else. It is a pretend scenario.
Your cadets are no more military soldiers anymore than civil air patrol are fighter pilots.

Everyone knows this is skewed by Jackie Sherrill and R.C. Slow-cum's shenanigans that resulted in two major NCAA probations in 7 years.
Sherrill immediately got the attention of the NCAA, and eventually he was run out of town on a rail. Why do you think your godsend Jackie Sherrill only lasted six seasons?
R.C. Slow-cum was Jackie Sherrill's bagman. He would meet boosters in the underground garage at Northpark Mall in Dallas and get paper sacks full of cash.
Slow-cum started fricking his secretary, so his then-wife showed up at practice and threw his clothes all over the field. He eventually landed on probation with the NCAA when a booster was paying players for summer jobs they never worked, with federal HUD money.
So you won 10 of 11 games from 1984 until 1994. But all you got was major sanctions. It was a blip on the radar.
Since then, TEXAS led the series, 12-5.
So frick you, you aggy bitch.

There are lots of areas to smack talk A&M but lack of military prestige is not one of them. A&M is the highest rated SROTC program which is also the largest and typically commissions the most officers of any school outside of the Academies. There were more Ags that served in WWII (over 22K) than all of the Academies combined. A&M also has 8 MOH winners.
Might as well tell Bama they suck at football.

So a cadet wearing this patch on his/her left shoulder
is not ROTC?
Good to know. Navy/Marine and Air Force have custom patches based on the program, but the Army patch is universal.
Of course, what do I know...I only went through the program.
Here's a little lesson for the frequent dumbasses on this forum.
Army ROTC:
Navy/Marine ROTC:
Air Force ROTC:
If there's anything other than one of the above three patches on the left shoulder of a cadet's uniform, that cadet is not an ROTC cadet.

Since 2010, little boy A&M has a 1-7 record against lowly, pitiful LSU. Discuss.
Posted on 1/7/19 at 2:05 pm to KaiserSoze99
Minor stuff, like giving Marcus Dupree a pair of cowboy boots or buying a plane ticket for a poor player to go home for a funeral.
No bowl or television ban. No federal money used. No scandal. No coach run out on a rail. No flirtation with the death penalty. No Federal Expressed cash payments as hush money when contacted by NCAA investigators. No Datsuns in Eric Dickerson's driveway.
Try again, stupid aggy.

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. -- Texas A&M University avoided the 'death penalty' Wednesday but was placed on probation for five years by the NCAA Committee on Infractions for major violations in its football program committed from 1990 to 1992.
Texas A&M's football team also will be excluded from playing in a bowl game or appearing on television during the 1994 season. The NCAA did not take away any football scholarships, however, or place limits on the recruiting program.
The violations cited by the NCAA include the paying of athletes for work that was not performed, providing financial aid for prospective athletes and providing extra benefits to athletes. Several players, including star running back Greg Hill, were suspended during the 1993 season for receiving pay for work that was not performed. Hill missed the first four games of the season.
David Swank, an Oklahoma University law professor and chairman of the Infractions Committee, said the NCAA's harshest sanction -- the so-called death penalty for repeat violations -- was considered because of similar rules violations concerning the summer work program in 1988. Read more: LINK
