See they win this game like every 5 years, only an aggy would think (or not think) this is a war worth starting.

It's pretty astounding that they pride themselves on being a military school and an engineering school with their lack of knowing when to start a fight and how to stack logs

Texas A&M continues upward enrollment trend while Blinn sees decline

https://theeagle.com/news/a_m/texas-a-m-continues-upward-enrollment-trend-while-blinn-sees-decline/article_73afcd52-62d5-11ec-acda-db8ed0e94413.html#tracking-source=article-related-bottom

“Texas A&M reported 73,283 total students across the university’s campuses in College Station, Galveston, Qatar and the Health Science Center. In College Station specifically, there were 67,133 students with undergraduates accounting for 53,876 of that total.”

 

”This is an increase of 10.2% and 6.4%, respectively, over fall 2020’s freshman class enrollment.”

 

““We’re not trying to grow enrollment dramatically or anything like that,” Joseph Pettibon, vice president for enrollment and academic services told The Eagle in September. “But the intent is targeted and planned growth in some areas.””

Articulate intelligent commentary from a sophisticated academic. Embarrassing.

Redneck math:

  • With a population of 29,527,941 in 2021, Texas had the largest annual and cumulative numeric gain, increasing by 310,288 (1.1%) and 382,436 (1.3%), respectively.

Everyone in the SEC hates us cause they're skeered of our awesomeness. We're no longer a sleeping giant, recruiting class and $$$ prove that were about to pass Bama. Jimbo, Jimbo, Jimbo! We're the only team that can control tu when they join the SEC and try to destroy it and the other SEC teams are too stupid to realize it. Espin and the college football media is in on it too. LOL

Gabe and Liucci already deleted the thread celebrating the death of Desmond Tutu which expounded at length on how black South Africans have been oppressed by the end of apartheid and how much better off black South Africans were “in the good old days.”

The people of South Africa deserve better than Texas A&M.

People who believe in freedom deserve better than Texas A&M.

This guy wrote this in the midst of taking Continuing Legal Education.

I hope each of you realize that we have a huge target upon our backs like never before; agenda-driven media pundits will most definitely release hit pieces to generate further criticisms of our program, much like the recent Rivals piece. For years we self-fueled conspiracy theories concerning a perceived 'Aggie Bias', and it certainly appears that we now face this reality. Yet we must be mindful that such could potentially drive wedges within our Aggie family if folks concern themselves with the opinions of outsiders, as evidenced by the dribble posted in the Zoo as of late. Furthermore, we are quickly cementing ourselves as 'Public Enemy No. 1' in the minds of our SEC brethren and beyond, who seem offended that "****" has dared to upset the Elites' authority and challenge the status quo.

Didn't quite stick the landing. I guess Weslayen Texas 8T4 law school didn't cover the notion of "drivel" even though their grads seem to specialize in it. 

This is the classic Aggie mindset. Their manly manfulness is so hugely masculine and not at all repressed homosexuality that they are feared: FEARED!!!!. Is there anything more scrawny, pimply-faced, and insecure than this cult's central tenet?

The sound of their terrifying War Hymn, and the Aggie masses led by their Yell-Leaders-(manly)-not-cheerleaders-(girly) roaring over the deathground of Holy Pyle Field will shatter even the stoutest warrior's resolve.

Uncover! and stay off that fucking grass!! You're in a sacred place!

Wow. It’s one thing to drink the off-season KoolAid, but another thing entirely if you start stirring in the meth.

So I can sleep at night I am going to imagine the guy writing that was just cleaning a lawyer's house during the CLE webinar and actually did not graduate from 8T4 law school or any law school for that matter.

what a beautiful quote:

Quote

Sankey's bush-league move this summer of adding t.u. & Okie trash did our university no favors; our win over Bama upset the system and left little Nicky with egg all over his face b/c Jimbo did in fact "beat his ass", and the remaining conference members are extremely jealous of the relatively new kid with all our fancy toys and thick wallets.

yes it upset the system. remind me, did Bama win the SEC West...again? did they win the SEC...again? are they in the playoffs...again?

only A&M would be upset about their conference adding 2 bluebloods lol

edit: more from the thread:

Quote

Until aTm wins something on the field, I don't see a whole lot of fear from the other schools. aTm might be poised to achieve, but other than a Heisman, and this years football, recruiting bonanza, aTm football, baseball, and basketball is not taken as a serious threat. They might fear the money and potential- but that's about it.

and

Quote

Ags don't need to be liked by their opponents. They need to be respected by their opponents.

and

Quote

If Florida State, Miami, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Arkansas State, Troy, U-La La, UCF, FIU, OK State, Tulsa, Texas Tech, Baylor, TCU, SMU Houston, Rice, Middle Tenn. State, Memphis, etc. would make the SEC as much money as adding t..u. and OU, that would happen, no matter what. Hell, they'd even add UTEP if it would make everybody as much more money as the sips and sooners.

and

Quote

Threads like this are why fans from other schools laugh at us.

My god, OP. The most A&M post ever, of course coming fresh off an 8-4 season.

Kicking myself for not printing up those shirts and selling them myself.  Probably coulda made a fortune.  Oh well, gotta keep that in mind for the next aggy moral victory.

I may be wrong. But I’m of the opinion you could print some up after ANY aggy victory, and those dumb fucking rubes would buy them.

We are not back and we are well aware of it.  But for a team who never arrived, aggy believes they are the SEC.   

It was funny how they all ignored our 5-7 season in the BDF, playing nobodies, Drew more eyes than their championship caliber 8-4 season against all the stacked powerhouses of the SRC.

Looks like they’re copying their football schedule.

Yeah, their non-conference basketball schedule is fucking terrible. They play Central Arkansas next. 

I thought the Texas non-conference schedule was weak but at least Texas has played a couple top 30 caliber teams in Seton Hall and Gonzaga. A&M has played absolutely nobody. They've played 1 team in the Kenpom top 50 (Wisconsin at #33).

But we're better because we lost to Georgia and Clemson. Those were QUALITY loses! 

One team played clemson twice and georgia, one team didn’t. Y’all acting like these records are even close to being the same is comical. At least at this point with regards to recruiting we have taken huge steps, now we’ll find out if we squander it as well as texas does.

The Aggies may have found something they can do better than Texas.

Just for fun, let’s evaluate how well the aggys are doing eight years into the development of this facility....

”COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — Gov. Rick Perry and top officials from Texas A&M University dedicated a new 100,000-square-foot manufacturing plant Thursday that's intended to have the capacity to produce bulk flu vaccine that can be delivered to as many as 50 million people within four months of a declared pandemic. 

The Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Facility is a cornerstone of the College Station school's growing center to battle contagious diseases and bioterrorism. Officials say the center — dubbed the Texas A&M Center for Innovation in Advanced Development and Manufacturing — could generate $41 billion in expenditures in Texas over the next 25 years and represents the largest federal investment in Texas since NASA in the 1960s.”
