Who did the collapse better: aggy 2022 recruiting class or this aggy baseball team

 

 

 

According to this guy on Aggie 247, the answer is ... yes.

The collapse of the 2022 class was easily expected, before they even took the field. The 2023 class was showing insane cracks by June, you need consistent recruiting not a flash in the pan class that was deeply unbalanced, Anthony Hill was their only 23 verbal commit of note headed into the 2022 season, and well they had a losing season. To players with NFL ambition abandoning ship was inevitable even if took a year or two.

What Earley is doing is turning a slow burn, into a Titanic like sinking, just 3 hours.

They cling to the 2020 “top 4 finish” for dear life. Embarrassing 

To be fair, most schools would do the same if that was their top football accomplishment over the last 85+ years.

Oh you mean the year that the entire B1G and P12 canceled their football seasons and half the SEC was barely practicing while Jimbo brazenly broke every practice and recruiting rule imaginable? Yeah, that was a totally legit final 4 finish. 

Member how Herm Edwards got fired for hosting recruits during lockdowns, yet there were pictures taken of Jimbo hosting kids at his ranch? I member.

As should the “we couldn’t compete for most of the 20th century because we were a male-only military school.”  That’s the easiest to disprove, simply by looking at the actual military academies’ success during the same period.

Thanks @Longhornfrenzy for posting the birth and afterbirth of an Aggie generated fact based on the musings of SEC Mike!

 

Irony deafness is never amusing:

These posts are their moral victories. Of course, somehow we lost to ND who A&M almost tied. I think that says all you need to know about how A&M measures up to t.u. I don't think the guy at the bottom has a fix on "counterintuitive," but I'm probably wrong. He has a college degree, after all.

Fuck your notion of "fair". Why does them claiming a top 4 finish connote "fair" to you? It's aggie pravda bullshit.

They didn't finish in the top 4 in 2020. There was, you know, this weird thing called a 4 team playoff to crown a champion. ATM wasn't invited, largely because they were blown out by 4 TDs to an actual playoff participant and their opponents' collective record was something like 30-50.

The only time anyone ever cites an AP finish for college football, from 2014 onward, is when they talk about ATM finishing at 4 in 2020. It's fucking bullshit and it should be disputed every time anyone cites it, anywhere. 

Yeah. That's literally my point.

That they have to make up some shitty "top 4" result that's fake as hell because their football team ain't done shit in 85+ years.

What the actual fuck? “None of that talent made it to the NFL?” Toward the end of that decade there were more NFL players from Texas than any other school. Texas also had the best W% among all power conference schools during that decade.

So - the most NFL players, the best W/L record, but the recruiting classes were completely and intentionally overrated. Got it.

When you wade through just a bit of the aggyness, you can often find new material for the books of Surly Motto, Surly Bands, and/or Surlyisms.

Today's item is "head over heals". It fits all three volumes.

There are probably more, but I'm heading on over to the Baseball Forum to check on the Earley birds.

And to add further to everyone's point, comparing their COVID season to our 2024 season. Both teams had 1 regular season loss... They didn't play in the SEC championship game or the playoffs where the other 2 losses came from. It's an apples to oranges comparison to begin with.

Texas 8 & 4 isn’t going to work when the conference goes to 9 games and schedules home and homes with the Big 10. That bitchass FCS game isn’t going to get it done anymore. Can’t wait. 

Texas 7 & 6 just doesn't have the same ring to it. 

Also, Liucci's assertion that A&M ever had Texas in a position that wasn't entirely self inflicted is comical. They got stupid (er) in one cycle and pissed off just about every major program in the SEC. They have been a smoking crater ever since.

I don't hear folks here say we are the most dominant force in football. I hear optimism but also disappointment that Sark did not have the special play needed to get us to the final two years in a row. So why do they think that we think we are football gods and are celebrating? I suspect it is little brother syndrome since they know we are flagship for this state. Just like little brothers often view their older brothers as infallible role models, aggy suppresses that admiration deep down, leaving only envy and resentment to be spewed all over TexAgs.

Well by that logic, they’re in year 1 of a new HC in baseball and *were* positioned for a run to Omaha. Of course, they now might be considering disbanding the team and paving over blue balls field but they were…..stand in awe and behold you t-sips. Thus is the greatness of aggymandias.

It could be worse. 
 
I was talking to a friend that went to the game in CS last November. He said he tried to get “Poo-oo-oor Aggies!” Going in the 4th quarter, and it just didn’t take. It is possible that, with a 13 year break in The series, younger Texas fans don’t know that we do that, when the win is almost certain?

We need to do that next year, and remind them why they hate playing us so bad.

i carved out some time to rewatch the aggy game minus emotions and whiskey.  I knew in real time that it was an ass whooping, I just didn't realize what a well whooped ass they walked out of Kyle with.  It takes a special person to get online and search for data points to prove out some type of parity between the programs after getting physically overpowered like that.  That's real good bull right there

I can assure you that the poor aggies chant was alive and well in the UT section at the end of the game.

They keep referring to our “easy” schedule, which it was compared to OU’s, but the aggy schedule was only perceived as tougher than ours was the fact that they had to play US. Playing aggy lowered our SOS.

Ok, so since aggy joined the SEC, which SEC teams have made the Playoff in consecutive years?

1 - Alabama

2 - Georgia

That's it. 

We did NOT have the benefit of the expanded Playoff. Under the 4-team format, we would have been in in '24 as well.

So, what the FUCK is that moron babbling about?
