Ohhh wait now Texas aTm is a women’s volleyball school LOL


A rare event for me, but I’m giving aggy support for their status as a Women’s Volleyball School, in addition to aggy being a top Meat Judging School.

Actual Texas alumni know that the strongest part of our Director’s Cup winning athletics program are our women’s sports, and Texas has a top women’s volleyball program too. Congratulations to the aggy women for winning the NCAA volleyball title this year!

Women’s collegiate volleyball is played at an exceptionally high athletic level, and I have enjoyed watching Texas play in past NCAA tournaments. If most of the posters on this board actually played a volleyball game against such ladies, I’m sure they could quickly kick your fat whiny baby arses, and those of your tubby pear-shaped friends too!

So props to these aggy women for adding a trophy to the aggy Hall of Champions!

:cheers:

Sounds like the Royals may be next. What a cesspool, teams can't seem to leave that state fast enough.

At least you have college teams. Maybe it will boost your lackluster attendance and fan support at Missouri and Missouri State games? It at least dissolves the BS excuse of "muh we care about pro". From my understanding MO people are not high on anything from Kansas. So I can't imagine they will support the Kansas Chiefs, will they? Darn that would be hypocritical of them!


I just drove past Missouri's KC Chief's stadium on I70, all the way through Kansas east to west this month to Colorado and returned, and am about to do that trip again (I live in North Carolina now.)

I like Kansas, friendly people, small towns similar to the one where I grew up in South Texas, and I have some relatives there. That said, Kansas seems like mostly wide wide open spaces, prairie pasture, wheat and soybean fields for miles and miles and miles.

Are there even enough farmers and ranchers in Kansas to fill an NFL stadium??

These "evaluations" are just guesses.Show me exact revenue/profit along NIL budgets (good luck) What exactly is the evaluation for Texas Tech? You think that billionaire clown who signs all those NIL checks GAS?


Hey man, great that you are exercising your critical thinking skills, but I just re-posted this info. Looks like you will need to set up some meetings with Nick Wright, the author of the underlying article, and debate him about his sources…

If you are talking about who wins a game or how the season went? Sure. If you are talking about the future of college athletics though you couldn't be more wrong. That list shows why Super Conferences can't be stopped and are coming fast. Essentially the SEC and B1G have almost every valuable program, just need to add a few of the stragglers to complete the picture. You can love or hate the idea of Supers but they are happening. Be thankful that in the SEC we are haves. I do wonder if they just blow up the Big 2 completely and add and drop some schools. I am not advocating for it but money is money and NIL has made it so that in order to compete programs have to have monster checkbooks long term. Also those teams with monster checkbooks and the networks that pay to have them want to make sure they are playing. Doesn't help that the 2 G5's were blown out and looked like September warm up games as expected. Doesn't help that they are being treated as farm clubs for NIL and for poaching coaches openly. As to who is #1 vs #20 it doesn't matter much.


Thanks for your thoughtful post… agreed!

How many touchdowns did you score for the ags this year??

And what exactly do these artificial numbers have to do with it?


Artificial? It’s not like Georgia comes out bad in this list… But I’ll have my crackerjack data integrity team get right on that…

Exactly. I will root for our conference leaders, as long as they are not playing us. It makes our conference, and indirectly us, look better, the better SEC teams do in the CFP.

So that’s why you’re sitting next to us watching the postseason right?


Yes, but we are hyped about next year!!

More impressive when you consider the relative population of these 4 states, honestly.


Right, and despite the opposing fan flack they get, these $1B + programs are definitely not “poor”…

I actually hope y’all do. Indiana has not played an SEC schedule…

All that money and didn’t do shite. Congrats I guess


Our Texas non-alters know that we are still gonna have to beat y’all this decade to advance.

I’m actually going to root for y’all, or Alabama, or Ole Miss to win the natty this year. Let’s don’t let the B1G win three years in a row! I don’t want another year of hearing the sports talking heads crowing that the “big tough” SEC can’t get it done…

So you probably won the conf? Got into the playoffs?


No, but like many of the fans on this Board, we’ve still got a perfect season next year…

Nobody cares about this shite


Thank you for caring enough to explain that nobody cares about this topic…

But in the NIL era, there are certainly long term big links between athletic program dollars, hiring and retaining top coaches, and fielding competitive teams.
Texas Dethrones Ohio State as the 2025 Most Valuable U.S. University Athletic Program

Before y’all haterz get too wound up, note that 7 out of 13 billion dollar U.S. university athletic programs (including aggy) are members of the SEC. I’m sure that Sankey’s heart is swelling with pride!

13 college athletic programs valued over $1 billion (2025)

Texas Longhorns – $1.48 billion
Ohio State Buckeyes – $1.35 billion
Texas A&M Aggies – $1.32 billion
Georgia Bulldogs – $1.16 billion
Michigan Wolverines – $1.155 billion
Notre Dame Fighting Irish – Over $1 billion*
Tennessee Volunteers – Over $1 billion*
USC Trojans – Over $1 billion*
Alabama Crimson Tide – Over $1 billion*
Nebraska Cornhuskers – Over $1 billion*
Penn State Nittany Lions – Over $1 billion*
LSU Tigers – Over $1 billion*
Oklahoma Sooners – Over $1 billion*

Would you say that being in the SEC is better than it was in the big 12 or would you go back if you could? Personally, I’m thinking the conference is even better now with both of y’all are in it.


Thanks! Being a part of the SEC is much more fun with its longtime history, traditions, huge fanbases, and love of football. As you may have noticed, Texans have egos, and playing in the “best” conference suits us, and greatly helps our player recruiting.

It’s hard to win this conference, but if we could put together a team good enough to beat the likes of Georgia or Alabama, that also gives us a chance to win a natty again.

Giving credit where credit is due, Texas women’s sports makes up the strongest portion of our athletics program…

Likely our female rowers could out arm wrestle most of the flabby arse dudes who hang out on this Board…
