It's cool that a Austin commie snowflake does. The original SEC doesn't have cry rooms and safe spaces.

The portal is why I'm no longer in front of the TV. I've gone from watching 80% plus SEC games to maybe two or three a season because I enjoyed watching players develop as a team through their years playing together. The portal ruins that.

Crying is a deep blue Austin thing. You probably have cry rooms and safe spaces on campus.
Y'all should've joined the PAC 14 so you could visit sister Commiefornia several times a year. And Oregon State is pretty close to Portland where snowflakes regularly have tantrums and throw things. That fits your fan base as evidenced by this weekend.

SEC Rant is hardly the entire conference. I bet your league office and college presidents love adding Texas and OU. And the broad swath of fans who watch games on tv and go about their normal lives probably don't give a thought about the new members other than a vague positive feeling.
Check other SEC individual school message boards and read back several years. No fans in the SEC were happy with the announcement y'all were joining up. No one ever will be. Your fans are obnoxious and you don't fit SEC culture.

Sigh. Yes. Even badass special forces guys.
The TAMU folks look more social club than gay though it's said about them on a lot on message boards. Kudos to the students who accept their commission and actually do serve in the military regardless of sexual orientation.

TeLeFaWx never answered. Maybe you will. How are you getting military hate from my posts? Our family went from Adopt a Troop care packages to providing a home for one of the guys for six months when he was having trouble adjusting back to civilian life. He was a grunt and it was rough.

How did you come to that conclusion reading my OP and subsequent posts?

I saw a shot of a group of TAMU ‘cadets’ during the game last night. Looked like a bunch of pasty white pussy nerds that wouldn’t know the business end of an M4 from a pumpkin spice latte.
Some do look goofy, but the ones that stay with it all four years do get offered a commission and props to those that go on to serve. Never meant to imply that finishing it out isn't an accomplishment with an excellent opportunity for service. Maybe the goofy looking ones are the ones who sign up for the social aspect.

1. There are only three schools that aren't capped by federal law in the number of commissions they can grant. Those are the academies and even they are capped by class size.
2. Each ROTC program is given an allocation of how many total commissions they can grant as a portion of the total year group. It's not legally possible for every cadet in a class group to commission.
Thanks. Good info. Which two of the five service academies are capped?

There's a linked citation in the Wikipedia entry for United States Senior Military Colleges that states 220 cadets were commissioned in 2018. Cadet corp annually is over 2,000 so the numbers don't look that good.
The URL of the link cited is LINK / ...but... TAMU has taken it down.
Now there's no info about numbers available on the school site ...just a message to contact the Office of the Commandant for more info on the school military commission link. LINK
I get that they commission more officers than any other non service academy, but that's only because they have a much larger student body overall than the other senior military academies.
From the numbers above, it looks more like a cheer/social club than a serious path to military service. Probably are taught some good life skills and have the option to accept a commission, but it looks like most do not.
Would like to know figures with documentation if anyone has the info.

Again...believing a long term side effect will occur is silly based on the known science.
The 'known' science is that all mRNA therapeutics studied pre Covid19 vaccines have failed long-term clinical trials.
"Long-term" in medical research refers to occurrences over a span of yearS plural; we are barely at a year. Denigrating healthy, well-educated people who have reservations about an emergency approved vaccine based on technology that has never yet passed regular clinical trials by attributing imaginary lifestyle practices to them does nothing to strengthen your argument but does show its weakness.

No mRNA delivered therapeutic has ever passed regular clinical trials. Testing has been initiated and shut down every time due to adverse events.

Exactly. My niece in high school has it. She can't smell, has had earaches, low grade fever and nausea ...for four days. Yesterday was day six. She started feeling much better Friday.
The more this age group gets it, the closer we get to natural herd immunity.
And they'll have it behind them and can safely go to Grandma's for Thanksgiving dinner without fear of infecting her.

You're an early contender for dumbass of 2020 to obsessively ridicule the guy's coaching experience, then start a thread that he's been hired as a HC in the NFL. Arky hillbillies and their meth ...sheesh.

It’s a risky hire but nobody can predict the future. He may go out and hire great assistants and be the CEO.
It’s risky and I wouldn’t bet on it but who knows.
He wouldn't have NFL HC interviews without known managerial strengths. Naval Academy wouldn't have accepted him had he not ticked their leadership boxes; he turned them down to walk on at Mississippi State because his goal even then was to be a football coach so add focus and persistence to the list.
I'm not thrilled with his thin college coaching experience, but he apparently has intangibles that go beyond job experience. And he's undoubtedly learned a few tricks from the most successful cheater to ever coach the game.
