I did enjoy a nice long run of "guaranteed" wins facing South Carolina and Arkansas since joining the SEC. But both of those streaks have been broken in recent years and SC is actually quite scary.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if ya'll score 40+ on A&M this year, which, to Elko's defense credit, has rarely happened since he has been the DC and HC at A&M.

love the GIF.

But this game is going to be a mud hole in the gut and arse of Elmo, and he will still keep his golden boy OC and QB.

Because he knows there's absolutely no chance of him getting shitcanned, so why bother trying to improve or play the next guy up so that he has real experience going into next season. Heck, he will trot out Reed even next season and he will piss on my fellow Aggies' legs and say it's rain, and demand that we believe him.

same caste as yours, American.

LSU's top country of origin for its international undergrad students is-- checking Gemini -- Bangla-fing-Desh. And even then, LSU doesn't draw as many. Geaux Tigers...into a ditch!

Fat arse and his team of homos got fricking stomped

Fat arse is fine, but if the team is homos then think about it-- your team fricked them good, so what is your team if not a bunch of homos too? Especially that ghey-arse head coach of yours. He probably still goes around Red Stick with that gay Joey Freshwater pseudonym! :rotflmao:

If I were him, I’d look to the middle class/upper middle class programs where I’d still be surrounded by decent talent and coaching, a likely starting job, and less pressure.

Connor Weigman has done well at Houston after not being a good fit in Colin Klein's offense and getting injured. Sadly, he would likely be a better player than status quo under Wiggins' playcalling which expects a better passer than Reed.

You'd really be doing us a solid by beating us at Kyle.

You know getting a W in that game alone would salvage this season for many fans and many Big Money Ags. And of course, as a fan, I have a "burning desire" for that W too. But strategically, I hope we lose. Especially if dumbfrick Elmo still have Reed at QB or has not made any substantive changes to the O scheme, playcalling, etc.

If that W saves Sark regime in Austin, let's do it. And honestly, statistically I think your team better off in most categories right now. A&M has a rebuilding year with worse playcalling and playmakers than your team. I can't see A&M scoring much because Reed and this piddly Wiggins playcalling has been figured out by all competent defenses. There are many ways Texas can win this game, but the path to a W for A&M is quite narrow.

I think Elko stays at A&M another year. If he has two down years in a row then I could see them turning the heat up there.

In my experience being a fan for 20+ years, there's no way A&M fires Elmo this year, or next year, or even a year after that. There is no big burning desire to win and win now, no established culture of excellence which expects high number of wins year in and year out. Elmo will win 8+ games next year, and if schedule gods smile maybe he can reel in a 10 win season...and that will solidify him at A&M for longer, and with fatter paycheck.

A&M gave Mike Sherman several years, and Sumlin (Stumblin?) got a year or two more still. Fisher's firing is probably still costing the department some drag too... probably the only reason they haven't shitcanned the absolute abomination of the women's bb coach who has pushed the program into a ditch.

My fellow Ags hate Schloss for how he left the program (I do too) but he wanted excellence and changed some traditions to make his baseball program have a wider appeal to players as well as fans. And he wasn't rewarded. A&M rewards people who bow down to its culture and traditions, winning isn't the top priority. And it shows.

He should....but he won't. Haven't you heard...Elko is so much smarter than us nonballers. He's Ivy league smart.

Serious question - do you really think TAM is so bad they can't get their act together and get better?

---

All that Mizzou has to do is stack the box on D and keep a spy on Reed. He can't throw the intermediate pass, and as soon as he takes off running, the spy can chase him down. The Aggie RBs are ok, some are better than others, but will need TEs blocking in addition to the OL. So the WR corps though talented won't have much action... because the trigger man sucks.

On O, Mizzou can pass underneath routes and run over the weak Aggie DL all day long.

Unless MiZzou turns the ball over, they're going to win this by multiple touchdowns before the 4th quarter starts...

Fat fart Elmo will ride Reed until he gets injured or until the end of season.

Look at athletic revenue per school and rank the respective AD. That will probably be a close approximation.

Then you'd only be measuring a program's input, not its output.

If revenue is your thing, at least measure revenue growth over time. If an AD at a smaller school has managed to raise revenue during his tenure then fine.

Better yet, if that increased revenue led to more winning and a demonstrably bigger profile for their university, that's where the AD earns his keep.

Practically anybody can keep a preexisting large ship floating. Perhaps that's why the Directors Cup leaderboard is the way it is.
