  1. This is an accurate assessment, and it reflects the aggy attitude across both athletics and academics. The truth is, aggy is not a destination, it's a stepping-stone for coaches and a lowered expectation for students. It's sad, but it's true, and the sooner aggy accepts that reality, the more respect they will earn.
  2. Welp... if we're going to get all technical about "little brother", let's remember that aggy was created as nothing more than one College, of The University of Texas. It stayed that way for a long time - as realized in their Spirit song, which needed to have its words changed from "... the Aggies are we, we are from Texas AMC" to "... the Aggies so true, we are from Texas AMU" to preserve the rhyme, after they got permission to call themselves a University. They knew. Hell, Texas College of Mines knew they were more of a brother to aggy, well before becoming UTEP. So, aggy, the bottom line is that in fact, Texas is not a brother to you at all, not big brother, certainly not little brother. Texas was, is, and will always be: YOUR DADDY. Hook'em.
  3. Ultimately, it would not be news that your little brother stuffed beans up his nose - again. It's news because a) it was a fifty-pound bag of beans, and b) he's forty years old.
  4. Woulda beeb better if she followed her Life Script and jumped in with "That motherfucker is not real!"
  5. You've spelt "GNP" incorrectly. * Gonna Need Pics
  6. The post-game presser question - and the answer - is being beaten to death without rational responses... thinkable ones, but not rational. Here's the deal: it is absolutely to be expected that such a question will be asked in such a situation. No problem with it being asked. The best answer would have been a form of Lincoln Rileyesque lying-by-truthing, something like "Gentlemen - and Ladies - I tell you, unequivocally, that there is no truth to the rumor that Coach Vitello is going to Austin and I am going to Knoxville. I have neither the desire nor the intention of going to Knoxville. That's all I'm going to say about that. Ask me about the game we just played." I don't fault Coach for the actual answer - even if his heart was on its way to Austin, I am certain that his mind was completely on the game, and aggy or not it was a devastating loss... hard to be angry with Coach for still being wrapped up in it less than an hour later.
  7. Best post since Monday night post-game.
  8. Wait for the portalling to commence. Actually, it almost certainly has already commenced, just wait for the nooze to start flying.
  9. So, let me get this straight. Trev Alberts got hired as new aggy AD (after Bjork bolted for tOSU) and one of his early accomplishments was firing the Assistant AD for Baseball, without discussing it with Schloss or even telling him when he did it? And Schloss has basically not spoken to him since? Shocked. Schocked, I say.
  10. ... especially true when your opponent in the final series finishes next to last. Whoop!
  11. They need to keep their staff in their pocket and not in the news.
  12. Gonna be some heavy-duty incentives, too... judging by Sark's contract.
  13. HC and Assistants seem pretty much done, waiting for confirmation... In the meantime - about the portaleers. Are they able to switch if they've only announced, or "committed" or whatever the terminology is, but not signed any documents yet? You'd think there have to be some who are going to wish they could re-direct their paths.
  14. Spread the News! aggy finishes in Second Place Tennessee finishes Next to LAST Advantage aggy! WHOOP!

  21. Both, one gets torn up, part of the deal.
