re: Top frauds as football HCs. #1 is easy
Posted by Texas Gentleman on 5/7/24 at 3:18 pm
[quote]I get this in one way, but any time you pay someone $76 million dollars to not coach your team anymore, insinuates that you were sold a false bill of goods and thus, he was a fraud.[/quote]
I know the rant loves to get hung up on the buyout, it’s triple the 2nd place buyout or whatever, bu...
re: Top frauds as football HCs. #1 is easy

So a “fraud” won a national title? What does that say about every other coach who hasn’t won a single one? And I ask that as an A&M who certainly was displeased with the results at the end of his tenure. The game passed him up, no doubt, but frauds don’t usually win it all. And no Aggie seriously sa...

Nice analysis, real interesting to see the data/stats on it. With all the trolling that goes on this site, it’s really refreshing to see posts like this from time to time, keep it up, it’s certainly appreciated.
There’s a poster on Texags that does lots of stats and analysis on college sports (mo...

Oh we know OP is chuckling at his computer thinking he’s some sort of good troll with all his aggy threads he starts that are supposed to rile us up. When in reality we’re all over here laughing at a vandy fan riding some longhorn coattails.
OP likes to throw weak troll threads and disappear from...

Dang, this thread has it all. Xwing back in full form, accusations and denials of avoiding each other pre-sec move, and lots of name calling in between.
Somewhere ol Kyle is smiling at his computer knowing his trolling is getting its intended actions....

Definitely a chance for Elko and company to make a statement. Hope we can pull the upset off....
re: It's been a couple of years now, let's check up on Texas A&M's 'best class ever'
Posted by Texas Gentleman on 4/27/24 at 8:10 am
A really long post that could’ve been summed up as “here’s one of the main reasons why A&M bit the bullet and paid 77 million to fire Jimbo Fisher”.
Yep that class has not had near the impact it should’ve. There’s still some solid players on campus from that class that have a good chance to furth...

Do I detect that xwing is on his 4th account now on the rant? Good lord is that sad, guy needs to learn how to step away from the keyboard. I’m curious what he did to get the vinnerbush one banned. ...
re: Sorry, Rant, virtually no Ags want to leave the SEC
Posted by Texas Gentleman on 4/23/24 at 6:18 pm
I suggest you ask the A&M officials from back then, I wasn’t part of that decision. Do realize that people in charge today are different than the people making decisions 30 years ago. Times change....

Congrats on a right prediction years ago? You got tomorrow’s lotto numbers while you’re at it?
You don’t have to post gifs and pictures of Texas favoritism in the Big 12, I’m well familiar with it as we played them when I was in school and I followed the rivalry since before I got to campus as I ...
re: Sorry, Rant, virtually no Ags want to leave the SEC
Posted by Texas Gentleman on 4/23/24 at 5:35 pm
Color me skeptical some sophomore at A&M thinks he’s plugged into the fanbase more so than most other alumni. Just because you and your buddies are sitting around in Math 142 talking aggie athletics doesn’t mean it’s what most of the powerbroker alumni want.
As someone said in the other thread, ...

Posted by Texas Gentleman on 4/23/24 at 10:27 am
[quote]Why do aggies keep saying Texas “followed them here”? Yall know you weren’t founding members of this league, right?[/quote]
Probably because it seems to bother longhorn fans like yourself.
Did my post say anything about being a founding member of the SEC?
But mainly because when we ...
re: Aggys taking their ball and going to Big x
Posted by Texas Gentleman on 4/23/24 at 9:51 am
The big 12 < Sec, but you knew that. It’s why yall followed us here.
Everybody knows the Big 10 and the SEC are the two top conferences right now, doesn’t make a lot of sense for teams to switch between the two.
Now a Big 12, ACC, etc type team jumping to B10 or SEC on an invite? That makes s...

Interesting, will have to look into those guys. I remember the hype about Diesch since we had been struggling to get high ranked o-line guys for a while.
And for the Bryce haters, yall can breathe easy, this was posted either on TA premium or 24/7, had a buddy send this over.

Not this crap again. It’s been objectively proven Swain doesn’t know much and is batting like .005 in most of his CFB predictions.
While I guess you never say anything is a full 0% chance, the odds that A&M moves to another league less than 15 years in its current one are extremely low. Not sure ...

Dang, just saw Isaiah Raikes is back in the portal from USC, that didn’t last long.
Has anybody that’s transferred out from our program the last few years crushed it somewhere else? There was that defensive end that went to tech and got drafted in the first round a few years ago, but that’s all I...

Ah, is it time for the yearly Foster shouldn’t be doing shot-put in the spring and be committed to football arguments? Certainly an Aggie tradition at this point.
Play the best player, no doubt, if that’s still Foster then it says a lot about our depth at the position. But I think that’s why we’v...
re: 247 Sports ranks the best CFB coaches without a natty win
Posted by Texas Gentleman on 4/19/24 at 11:15 am
I’m too lazy to google ages, but basically B Kelly and K Whittingham are the two old guys of the list, most of the rest would be “younger/up and comer” guys. Looks pretty straightforward to me.
But as y’all lsu fans like to say to us, go ahead and print the cups! Number one offseason coach witho...
re: Worst defense SEC history: 2013 A&M or 2023 LSU?
Posted by Texas Gentleman on 4/17/24 at 12:49 pm
Gotta be us in 2013, no?
Such a waste, offensively we were even better than 2012, Johnny put up better numbers than in his heisman year. We just flat out sucked on defense. In his Netflix documentary Johnny even said “that team was better than 8-4” but I don’t think it was his partying that held ...

He’s been hanging around Desmond Howard too much.
Our schedule isn’t terrible, and there is a lot of talent still on the roster, but we haven’t been developing players well over the last few years. Elko has a fair amount of work in front of him....
