I genuinely can't believe they didn't have a plan in place on a shelf from Day 1 for if Texas joined the SEC.

The entire thing was just insanity to me. THEY VOTED FOR TEXAS AND OU TO JOIN after making all that noise. They had no plan in place and I think they legitimately thought that the gentleman's agreement that let teams say no to say Miami or FSU or Ga Tech would also apply to Texas and OU joining as a combo?

here is from an ESPN article about it a few years ago - who in their right mind would ever take any of those schools alone over OU? much less Texas AND OU?

same article:
 

sounds like they should have had the same discussion day 1 with Sankey.

not that it matters, when you can add Texas and OU, you do it.

Again, the fact they had no plan other than to leak it to a friendly reporter (Brent Z in Houston) instead of to some national person says it all. The fact at the end of the day they voted to add Texas says it all. Just a tremendous failure of planning of any kind.

Then again, looking at their University leadership, it sounds like it shouldn't shock anyone.

The thing to realize about them voting to add UT and OU is that they had no real choice. They pissed off Sankey with their childish tantrum in the press when they leaked the story. By Friday night, the goobers were puffing their chests with vague threats and even called an emergency board meeting for the following Monday to discuss their options regarding the expansion. That was what the subject was disclosed as. They had a call with the SEC that Saturday morning and they were told “get right or get fucked”. They a simple choice, vote in favor and get behind it, or leave the conference. At the time there was no exit fee. So of course those idiots voted in favor of expansion with UT and OU. They had their bluff called, brutally.

This is delicious. OU thinks they’re getting him. People involved with the Texas side of things think they’re getting him. Now stumblefuck is hearing that Akana might still be in play and therefore thinks ATM has a chance.

"Mike assured us that they got what they wanted in Texas A&M because they got the Texas market, and they got a school which was very compatible with SEC schools."

Loftin's use of the word "assured" from a conversation that took place well before Texas and OU were even a part of the SEC expansion betrays so much insecurity. Not surprising in the least just interesting he'd say the quiet part out loud.

Decommitted from Piggy today.

I guess that's the flip from another SEC team that Looch was blathering about the other day.

They're in the backup plan death spiral where your backups are going to the schools that actually recruited them and you end up with Max Merril

Catching up on this, I was recalling how smug the Aggies were in the summer. We're going for top guys. If we don't get those, we'll have to settle for 4-stars. Jimbo knows what he is doing.

There was also the rationalization about their small class at the time. Jimbo knows this is a small class, so he's being very picky.

There's still a lag for most of them to see what is really there to see. If you're not the son of an Aggie, you're not hoping and dreaming of playing for A&M. Has anyone ever heard anyone refer to A&M as their dream school? I won't deny that all teams pick up fans and catch the fancy of various players. This goes for A&M, too. But nobody dreams of Aggie. 

Now they're a national joke likely to remain so.

There are 1-4 solid suburban white OL every year that earnestly did dream about playing for aggy. Unfortunately for them, this is a year with only one of them (Thomasson) when they could have really really used 4.

It's an amazing shit fire. I don't think I've ever been anywhere near as low about Texas as I would be about A&M if I were an Aggie. 

I have an Aggie BIL, great guy, and nephews. We never goad each other or talk shit. I never pull for the Aggies, but I do feel good for them when the Aggies are doing well. I can't help but sympathize with Aggies like that. 

Such a nightmare that they can't make a change. I love watching it because of their culture of pathologically hating and demonizing us. No other school obsesses like they do.  It's hard to explain to people who don't know. They think I'm just ragging on a rival. I point out that I don't feel the same way about OU or Arkansas or any other school we play. They're all basically college students just like we are. The differences are subtle between other schools. No such thing as subtle in Aggie world.

They are going to get some guys this week that'll look good to the eye like this QB, maybe the TE from Stanford, and another one or two and Looch and company will boast about Jimbo the great on the recruiting front.

No way that QB stays two years behind Weigman, probably in the portal this time next year.
