I have a good Navy bud who is a red-ass aggy all the way.  His wife is an aggy as well.  She was born and raised in BCS.  The most prominent thing you see when you walk into their home is a giant framed print of two aggy rings joined together.  They have four kids, three of whom have already started or graduated college.  Two of the three couldn't swing the grades to get into A&M and went to Ole Miss.  They posted a bunch of "Howdy Toddy" bullshit on Facebook a couple of weeks ago.  He recently retired from the Navy after nearly 30 years of service and moved straight back to BCS.  It's a fucking mental disorder.    

Couldn't get into AnalM? Friends? You need to re-evaluate everything in your whole life.

I'd laugh my ass off if aggy hires Traylor. He currently makes a living beating up on teams in the bottom quartile of the FBS. Does he even have a signature win? I guess there's a possibility he's the next Urban Meyer, but its far more likely imo that he's the next Charlie Strong, Billy Napier, etc... I'll be thrilled if that's who they settle on. Unless they want to hire Matt Rhule, than Matt's my preferred choice for aggy failure. 

His best wins are probably Western Kentucky or UAB from 2021. So yeah, not really.

39 brings “preferred walk on” to a whole new level. Has to be parental donations to the aggy coffers, as the year he arrived, I’m willing to bet that there were at least 300 RBs in Texas alone, from 5A and below that were bigger, faster, and basically better than that chosen one.

Hook’em!!!

Great googly moogly, Qatar will be uphauled.

with Blinn Team and all of the other deferred admissions they run to keep their freshman metrics artificially high one would think that getting a 2.5 in community college would not be that hard.....but admittedly that does not get you into your major of choice and some like business and engineering are harder to transfer into.....not nearly as hard as Texas.....and while Brenham is probably a nice enough place to live who wants to JuCo there or to JuCo in College Station when you can just go to Arkansas, LSU, OU, OkState, Ole' Miss, Auburn, or Alabama and be at the "top schools in the state" (with WAY hotter girls)

He is Texas high school football royalty. Personifies Friday Nigh Lights football. He kicked ass at recruiting while while at Texas. Plus he is a really likeable person.

 

 

I think that's why but IMO he gives off vibes of a dude that does well with low level school talent. Maybe a nicer, less accomplished version of Matt Campbell. Thing is we haven't seen what he can do without Frank Harris who has been a QB in college so long he's older than damn near every member of the San Antonio Spurs. 

The deck would be stacked way against him. Even seasoned veteran power P5 coaches can't win there with that fucked up culture and cult atmosphere.

I need to create a new Mt. Rushmore photo comp. How about Michigan State’s departed coach as the fourth?

I think he is a potentially very good coach and I do not want him at A&M

Recruiting is the lifeblood of college football and Traylor would make a huge difference for aggy. Who knows what kind of HC he'd be at the SEC level, but he would have no shortage of talent for sure. I'd rather not find out. 

 

For one reason or another, that really hasn't been a problem for them.

Recruiting hasn't been the issue for aggy. Hiring jimbo was the problem.

His recruiting won’t be any better than Jimbo’s.  

I would be pissed if we hired Traylor.  I didn’t like the Strong hire and his resume shits all over Traylor’s.  
 

I swear 90 percent of the opinions on this board are based on regurgitations from Inside Texas.  No more true than the myth of Jeff Traylor.  Outside or Burton and Hamilton, the others there are idiots like most all 995ers

Seriously. No one older 40 will know, but a washing machine used to last 20 years. 30. To buy a comparably set is about 5k now, because of disposable economics. 
Old Jesus was awesome. All about peace and whores and poors. New jesus is about immigration and money and politics. Pour one out for the 50s. Americas golden age. Also, fuck aggy twice. 

I agree with your take; I think the change started when they started allowing dancing in Waco.

However I am disappointed in everyone here for missing my vague Texas cultural reference to the funny guy of early Outlaw music when it meant something. Kinky Friedman and the Texas Jewboys were a mainstay at the Armadillo. Some of the hits, well not hits, notable songs

Exactly. With the money they're willing to throw around to buy players that's not going to be an issue for them. They have to find the guy who can manage a bunch of overpriced ego maniacs. That's a tall order.

I don’t know.  Getting kids to sign hasn’t really been their problem.

I do think Traylor should get a shot somewhere more big time than UTSA.  SMU maybe if Lashlee leaves.

He’s exactly the type of coach they should hire. Up and comer with good resume and would come at a reasonable price. But that would acknowledge that they are not blueblood, it’s how everyone else hires and succeeds. They are obsessed with needing big names to make them feel important. They cherish that more than actually winning games. They’ll go with another $100 million fully guaranteed contract for Urban or even Kiffin to feel like big dogs and it’ll blow up in their face as should be expected.

TLDR: I wouldn’t laugh if they hired Traylor, it means their actually being sane for once.

There's being able to recruit and then there's being able to identify talent. Aggie, in true aggie fashion, thinks that just throwing money at highly rated players will make them a winner. No thought is given to doing real, in-house talent evalutation, nor is there any consideration as to how the pieces will fit together.

They're already seeing this strategy not pan out.  Look at the attrition of previous classes rated so high on paper.  They have no ties or loyalty to the school.  They are mercenaries that will leave at the drop of a hat.  Perpetuating the "we're always young" cycle they keep seeing.

Better than Jimbo? I'm not sure if you remember but aggy bought the greatest signing class in the history of ever in '22. You might have missed it, aggy didn't really say much about it 🙄
