Honestly I'm probably going to sit 2022 and 2023 out as well. If there was a vaccine against giving a shite about A&M athletics I would take triple the dosage. Please either anchor or remove my front page topics as I'm not going to update them. I've accepted that A&M will never win anything meaningful when I'm alive.

I'm glad I didn't watch the shite show ending live.

I'm glad that the dipshits on texags will now have to work overtime to spin this bullshite and get their garbage shoved in their faces.

EDIT: Not being able to play in the Gator Bowl is the PERFECT ending to this season.

What is so infuriating is that the fan base, big money, etc have stepped up big time. Time and again. At some point we need a title for the return on investment.

What an abortion of a season. I won't even watch the who gives a shite bowl game. Please tell me that Calzada will portal out before the spring is over. We know what he is

I don’t understand what everybody is scapegoating calzada? LSU and Arkansas both had worse qb’s and we lost to them. It’s the coach!

I’m baffled that, of all the games that could have drawn this kind of ire, some of you are throwing in the towel over this one.

Would your opinion really be THAT much different had we stopped LSU and won 24-20 to finish 9-3 instead of 8-4? Really?! That’s completely illogical in every way.

Wait, what?

That’s the dumbest fricking thing you’ve ever posted my dude. We go 11-1 with either Johnson or Jefferson

Yes, because under every coaching staff from Slocum to Fisher we have had at least one, if not multiple games, in which we appeared to finally turn the corner, taking the lead late, only to choke it away at the last minute.

Slocum

1998 t.u.
2002 Texas Tech

Franchione

2004 Baylor
2006 Texas Tech
2006 Nebraska

Sherman

2009 Colorado
2010 Oklahoma State

Sumlin

2013 Auburn
2014 Missouri
2016 Ole Miss
2017 UCLA

and now Fisher

2021 LSU

Tonight's game told me that we will never turn the corner, so I'm just simply going to opt out.

RESPECT MY DECISION

No, it really isn't.

1. It's obvious that even though Bama is ranked #3 right now that they are nowhere near what they have been in years past and are extremely lucky to not be sitting on at least 2 or 3 more losses. Our win against them kicked arse at the time. It's also very likely fool's gold just like last season where we lucked out getting pretty much every bad SEC team on our schedule and a bowl opponent who had nearly all their starting skill position players sit for the draft.

2. Had we beaten LSU we'd have a shot at winning 10 games for the year which is something that has only happened one time (2012) since the turn of the century. The last coach to have multiple 10 wins seasons was RC Slocum back in the 90s w/his last being in '98. Scoff all you want but winning 10 games is still a big accomplishment and after 4 years of the $100m man we have yet to achieve that baseline.

3. This LSU team is AWFUL. Their HC was fired mid season. They are running w/a mediocre backup QB same as us. They are down so many starters on defense that we should have been able to do whatever we wanted on offense. Instead we got the same old same old predictable offense that is painfully scripted to the point that Jimbo loses track of his best offensive weapons for entire quarters as he doesn't ever do wild concept such as let the hot hand get the ball.

4. This is the 3rd time this season Jimbo completely stopped using an RB in the 4th who had been the main catalyst for getting the team back in the game w/big runs in the 3rd of tight games. All three were losses. It happened with Achane and once with Spiller. Jimbo had a nonsensical answer for why it happened with Spiller. Then he said he'd look at how it happened with Achane and would do better in the future and yet here we are a second time. It's now clearly a pattern with his play calling.

5. We are in year 4 of a guy who was given a national title trophy case when he got here and in year 4 we are still a middling 4 loss team staring at a year 5 that will 100% be billed as a rebuilding year. Most of the defensive standouts will be gone, we'll be rolling w/either a true freshman or a redshirt sophomore who played essentially one game at QB, the line is still a mess, and our WRs drop passes like the ball is on fire.



Right now our best case scenario is that Jimbo ends up like Mack Brown or Dabo and gets a title in year 8 or so but even Brown and Dabo were winning 10-11 games a season by year 4.

the only important pieces we lose on offense are Spiller, and I think we can all agree that achane has proven to be the better player as the season has gone on, green who is a legitimate loss, and wydermyer who has had a massive regression this year. And while we do lose some pieces on the defensive line with some questions on the effectiveness of people like shemar turner and Mckinnley and like diggs and Raikes, we have encouraging young players elsewhere in johnson and cooper and chappel

Thats before we get into how incoming freshman like walter nolen and evan stewart will help

I feel a lot better about next year than I did this year and the retroactive thought that this was somehow going to be our true "breakthrough" year is whatever

This was always going to be a 9-3 team before king got hurt. Then we had to go through the whole year with calzada

And had Jimbo not called a roll out to the left on 3rd down and short we still may well have finished 9-3. SMH

This is kind of where I sit. Although I tend to think wydermyer issues were as much on QB play. With Haynes and Connor W we'll have a couple dual threat guys which, if one of them wins the job, should elevate all other groups WR, RB, and OL with the loss of green.

TE *could* be weaker but Donovan green will be really good and Baylor cupp might be, and maybe we can grab someone from the portal.

Hopefully we hang on to the CB from Georgia. We really need more elite talent there. Maybe you look to the portal for a CB transfer as well.

A special season needs special QB play, and with Zach more experienced, Haynes healthy, and Connor W being as awesome as he looks, our prospects are much better than most fans are feeling today.

Next Sept can't come soon enough! Hope Cupp gets a TON of reps in the bowl game.

Cool, sounds like you need to step back and get perspective on life. In the meantime please don't come back constantly and shite all over the program here talking about how you don't care and have opted out. If you are going to quit then just quit.

Oh, and say what you will but I think this team wins a Natty within 3 years. I've been following Aggie football since the early Jackie era. Jimbo is the best fit we have had at HC since Jackie and that includes RC. He doesn't make excuses and he knows how to build. It isn't easy though when you have to do it in the strongest division of the strongest conference in CFB history though.

His Arkansas presser from this year says otherwise w/his god awful attempts to explain away why he stopped giving Achane and Spiller the ball right after they started busting open big runs.

1. I don’t think you can stay away

2. You’re a valuable contributor to this board’s conversations, so take a deep breath and then stick around

After every loss Jimbo pointed to himself first and not his players. He clearly was pained about the mistakes HE made and what HE needed to do to improve. Did he also call out players for mistakes? Sure, but he always made it clear it was his responsibility to solve it.
