No. Us owning Auburn over the last 5 years is why we're talking shite. Just the way that we have owned A&M for the last 4 and all-time.

Heismans don't mean shite. Baylor has a Heisman. Navy has at least one. Those aren't what I'd call good programs.

I know I get it. AHL is yalls standard.

I love it as according to that standard we will never lose to Ole Miss.

Army has three.

Yale, Navy and Wisconsin have two.

Chicago, SMU, TCU, Minnesota, Priceton, Stanford, Pitt, Carolina, Boston College, BYU Colorado, Baylor, UCLA Syracuse, and Oregon State all have had a player win one.

It is apparent it is all Aggy has.

Your logic is that aggy will now get Texas' recruiting classes because they now have all the edge in recruiting over Texas.


No black magic involved there. rivals.com has A&M #7, Texas #16. I don't remember that ever happening.

There is two flaws in this logic, one is that every kid grows up in Texas wants to be an aggy and not a Longhorn.

The other is their best players chose the aggys over the Longhorns.

Neither one is true, had Texas offered Manziel as a QB and not a safety, he'd be sitting the bench at Texas right now.


Beyond the 3rd grade grammar error, there is a lot of nonsense there. For one, Manziel was recruited by Sherman when A&M was still firmly a Big 12 team. Your latter comment is telling about Texas' wasting talent though, and I think might actually be correct. If Manziel had gone to Texas he'd likely be sitting 3rd behind two awful quarterbacks. And you seem to think this is a positive for Texas? OK.

quote:

Playing in the SEC might matter to some recruits, just as playing at LSU, Arkansas, Oklahoma, OSU, etc might be the difference to Texas kids who didn't get a Texas offer.


It obviously matters to more than a few, based on our recruiting. But you go on with your delusions. It's all entertainment, after all. FWIW, rivals.com shows 3 non-SEC teams ahead of A&M: Notre Dame, Michigan, and USC. I can live with that. And I can certainly live with Arkansas not being in the top 25.

Damn Wincy had two like us. That makes me respect them more. How many were due to Bret?

Thank God Arkansas decided not to go after Art Briles. The flagshippers might have been able to back up their smack talk in a couple of years. Instead, the world gets to watch Arky bask in long-term mediocrity. Don't lose hope though, shippers. Sail on.

Auburn's recruiting classes ranked ahead of Bama's a couple times this time of the year as well, because Rivals is infallible like the Pope and their opinion matters.

I'm not sure what y'all are talking about now but:

Arkansas > A&M
Ole Miss > A&M

Hypotheticals, apparently the SWC patch, wait no it was the Big12 patch holding aggy back from all their built in inherit advantages, the SEC patch on their jerseys will now allow them to take advantage of them.

It has nothing to do with them being a second rate program like Baylor, TTU, SMU, Houston and Rice, it was the Patch on the jersey, and now "they" have a Heisman, it was another thing "they" were lacking this whole time, wait "they" already had one of those too...

Nope AHL is the rule for this thread. All time record is everything. Anything Arky does have- Heismans, decent recruiting classes- is not important.

By that Ole Miss has never beaten A&M and never will.
