Because A&M has never won and never will win crap. And he chooses to go somewhere that he knows he won’t win a flipping thing. Apparently it’s not all about winning with some guys. Some guys don’t care about the possibility of a championship. I understand he wants to stay close to home but don’t waste your career at A&M. I mean at least go to Texas if you gonna stay home.

Money is more important than winning, right?

Oh wait. Frick no it isn't. Hope he enjoys those weirdos and keeps an eye on his cornhole.

Look man I hate A&m as much as anyone but Texas A&m in 2024 >>>> LSU in the 90s

LSU averaged 5.4 wins and had 3 total winning seasons in the 90s.

A&m has top of the line facilities and has had 1 losing season in the last decade.

They're not at LSU's current level (or really even close to it imo) but they are lightyears above where LSU was in the mid 90s.

I hope this isn't the ramblings of someone who considers themselves to be an adult? If you are 13, 14, 15 years old, I get it. You're immature. You'll mature as you age. We all do. If not, I'd be a bit embarrassed.

Why is it any of your concern which school a kid you don't know chose to attend? Is he not supposed to make the decision he thinks is best for his life? Do you feel random people you don't know should criticize you for your life decisions?

Maybe he had a good relationship with the coaches there. Maybe he just really liked what the school/atmosphere had to offer him. Maybe he felt that if he, and other good players, attended the school, they WOULD win something. By your logic anyone who signed with LSU prior to 2003 was a fool because LSU never won crap (outside of a championship, at that time, 40 years prior). Thank goodness there were kids who didn't accept that mindset.

Signing day snubs always bring out the worst of any fanbase. Adults so pathetic that they get angry because a teenager chose to attend a school.

We have no idea if that is the case. This is apparently a good kid and he has never decommitted from A&M.

Our fans are the shitty ones here for saying stuff like this.

I love this site
Kinda my thoughts too, it would've been awesome but he'd been committed to them for awhile. Him spending his freshman year in aggotslund doesn't mean much.

They didn’t hire him to be a defensive coach, he was hired as a Head Coach, big difference.

As for Bussey, I wish him the best.

We'll get him when he hits the portal. College Station is like 2 hours from his hometown.

. I wouldn’t call A&M subpar. They are what LSU was until Saban came here and showed us the blue print. A underachieving, sleeping giant. They are no different than LSU ( except for the whole gay milkmen thing ) they just haven’t found the formula yet.

No, College Station is closer. If he hits the portal, we should give him the cold shoulder!
