When Nick Saban started getting the big money boosters back in action in Tuscaloosa for their 2008 class it was obvious that the wins would shortly start piling up after. They'd been scared to bring out the big money guns because they nearly got the death penalty in the early 2000s for getting caught paying a 5 star lineman, Albert Means, out of Memphis. With that hesitancy out of the way, they went on to sign the #1 class in 2008 and 2009. Those classes paved the way for 3 out of 4 National Titles.

A&M is doing the same thing, although legally, this go around.

As for saying Fisher hasn't been a winner, please. He won a Title at FSU and had six 10+ win seasons. The only year that wasn't successful was when their starting QB went out for the season in game 1 in 2017.

A&M is about to be an absolute force. Get the jokes in while you can I guess.

I agree with you. Texas A&M spending that cash will net them championships. Too bad.

So you posted a picture of a cadet who is now an officer in the Air Force and was the Wing Commander his Senior Year at A&M.

Not sure I understand the point.

Looking at that uniform, I see:

3 diamonds = Cadet Colonel, which means he's a Brigade or Equivalent Unit Commander.

Air Force contract pin = Assuming he's not a current student, he is now an officer in the Air Force

Wings underneath his contract pin = Either a pilot or a nav, I don't know which.

Distinguished Student Ribbon = 3.25 or higher GPA

Ross Volunteer Ribbon and Cord = Part of the Texas Governor's Honor Guard

Best-drilled Cadet Ribbon = At some point, he was one of the best in his class in Drill and Ceremonies

If you wanted to troll with a picture of an A&M Cadet you should have found one that was a complete shitbag instead of what appears by all indications to be a top leader.

So what the frick is Auburn’s problem? Do y’all intend to sit back and watch another SEC program pass you by without putting up a fight?

How many schools have the kind of cash A&M have - or how many are willing to spend that kind of cash to buy players to win football games? It will be interesting to see who the powers of college football are in 5-10 years.

Aggy should definitely be better, alot better but you can't really compare them to Bama because of Saban.

Fisher is good but he isn't Saban.

Sounds like AU and their fans have given up on trying to be successful in football and have resigned to hoping another team can dethrone Alabama.

Jimbo lost 5 games this year. He’s not Nick Saban. Aggys are allergic to winning.

Last year they lost 1 in an all SEC schedule with far less talent that they will have in the future.

AU has stuff in the works but we're not going to match what A&M is currently doing.

Aggies have always had money and never produced. Transfer portal gonna eat them alive after another underwhelming season in 2022/2023.

Death, Taxes, and the Aggies getting bent over. (No pun intended)

Yeah? Les Miles had a title and seven 10+ win seasons at LSU. While a good coach, nobody would confuse him for Saban.

Winning 10 games in the ACC doesn’t mean a whole lot.

Fisher lost starting QB in week two for the season. So went out and got an experienced backup and has the best QB since Manziel coming in to compete in the spring. Next season the expectations will be higher

The OP is an Auburn fan, you are asking way too much of him.

A&M winning a championship was coming once JF was hired. NIL is just probably speeding up the pace.

It will be nice to give the middle finger to SEC insiders who F’d A&M over to let in ‘sips. I hope we soon let in FL St. , Clemson, Ga Tech, and matbe Louisville.

You are spot on. I said this in an earlier thread. AM is going to be a national force. Hell of a recruiting class. People are in denial
