What is the connection between aggy coaches and alcoholism? Sad, sad, sad.

A “has been” coach. But if you add another 25M , they could “steal” coach O.

For A&M a 75 million coach gets you the same amount of Championships a Heisman winning QB does.

I agree with this. The big cigars that steer A&M athletics have driven many sub-optimal decisions over the years.

You sure have an unhealthy fascination with all things A&M. You and Morononthemountain probably talk about A&M while y’all cuddle in bed.

You seem very very interested in another man’s looks. Are you trying to come out?

A$M has a lot of money. That's a double-edged sword.

Tennessee has a similar issue with the diddlings of the Ha$lams. It hardly requires any investigation of a University's athletics decisions to discover they are driven, ultimately, by boosters.

It's just like that, and that's the way it is. I could imagine a big school with an expansive STEM wing like A&M has a plethora of wealthy, successful graduates who mature into big donors.

I figure a nice house, some good connections, and a crippling addiction to alcohol resulting in looking 20 years older than your actual age


you can get that in college station with 3 million. if you have 75 you can get a mansion in houston, austin, or dallas with a helipad and commute.
