This will also be used in recruiting against them for the next few years until they can afford to fire him.

"They extended him to keep it at 10 years before. Why do you think they haven't extended him the last few years? He's not going to be there your whole career, guaranteed."

Also, another reminder of this brilliance:

The notion of A&M being able to "afford" to buy him out at some point is hilarious.  It's still the same amount of money.  His annual salary chips away at the buyout, plus/minus.

Beyond that, any austerity plan in which A&M doesn't extend or give raises is, in the current environment, tacit admission that they are just riding it out.  It's a bad look, and it furthers @Huckleberry's notion that recruiting will suffer.  Not that recruiting isn't already suffering, or that they're doing anything with the talent they've signed.

I’m really torn about the reports of a divided locker room and impending mass portalling of the bestest ‘crootin’ class evah. 
On the one hand, I want the mediocrity to stay around as long as possible, leaving aggy in perpetual CFB purgatory. 
On the other hand, I always want complete and utter aggy collapse. Every year. 
So it’s really a win-win situation.

That pep rally, or cult propaganda video, or whatever the hell that was I saw a couple of weeks ago was literally the weirdest thing I may have ever seen.

It borderline made me wish football didn't exist, just so that wouldn't either.

Heard about this tweet on Jim Rome today:

 

 

 

This is funny because Jace was drafted 1 spot before McLaurin, and this aggy TE (who Looch said was their Gronk) is already out of the NFL after 3 years and 4 teams. 

Speaking of which, looks like their other "great" TE Wydermire went undrafted this year and is already out of the NFL after 2 teams. 

Jimbo's just killing it with the NFL player development for his favorite pass catchers.

By the way, I do want one of those shirts.  I believe it would be fun to wear around my aggy acquaintances.

Im ordering one for the deer lease. 5 aggys and me. Will be worn plenty as this situation isn’t getting better.

They have just never come close to experiencing it.

That's not true. They got to celebrate a national championship AND Hitler invading Poland all in the same season. It's just every year since then that's been not so good for them.

My bad I forgot I had to refer to all those 90+ year old internet posters that were old enough to experience it.

You know things are bad when Liucci admits on his podcast this week that they should have lost to Arkansas. 

Played out meme, but fitting:

Twitter rumor is they were smoking weed in the locker room. Lmao if true 

This would seem to make it very difficult to dispute the charge that "he has lost the locker room."

In all honesty, I'm impressed that an Aggie knows the word "apotheosis. "  Probably did his undergrad at an Ivy League school.

I believe aggy offers a degree in Vocabulary.

Other twitter rumor is that one of the Aggie trainers caught two Aggie players tag-teaming a woman who was not associated with the team in the locker room.

Could it have been the player who was DMing a chick on Friday about getting together in Columbia?

Do we even want Harris? He seems like the biggest fuckup in a class full of big fuckups. I'm serious.

 

Absolutely not, he is the leader of the dipshits. Bryce Anderson (6th ranked run defender in the nation regardless of position) is the one who we need to be in contact with.

I still can't believe they distribute tickets to students in that manner when they're going to be begging people to fill up that monstrosity. Do any fellow olds remember standing in line at Belmont and handing over your IDs for your group and watching them spin the wooden box full of tickets like lotto balls? Mind you kids, this was 1985, or 2022 in bryan/college station.
