Random thought I was having. Why didn’t Fatterson ever get brought up as a target? He’s not done coaching completely is he? 

He's anti-portal/NIL/adjusting to the modern game in general

I think we should put up our record against them in every sport.

Well, we just beat their asses in volleyball tonight at Gregory Gym in the first round of the NCAA tournament, so chalk up another dub.  They brought the yell leaders. We posted this:

For a little while, just out of college, I sold cars. I did okay but it just wasn't my thing.

Knowing there are aggys out there like this ... it kinda makes me want to give it another shot and finally be able to buy that vacation villa in the Maldives.

Same logic as a wife that goes to the outlet mall, drops $5,000 on shoes, and brags about how much money she saved because everything was 20% below retail. No, honey, there’s still $5,000 missing from our bank account.

What years would the unclaimed ones be? I almost wish the powers that be would throw those on the stadium wall right before the A&M home game in 2025. I think they should get a mention in the National Championship trophy room though.

a handful:

  • 1914: 1 selector picked Texas (4 of 7 picked Army)
  • 1941: 2 selectors picked Texas (11 picked Minn)
  • 1968: 3 selectors picked Texas (14 of 18 picked Ohio State
  • 1977: 4 selectors picked Texas (17 of 22 picked ND)
  • 1981: 1 selector picked Texas (18 of 23 picked Clemson)

as a reminder for the ones A&M claim, they had 2 of 15 selectors pick them for 1919 (5 picked Harvard, 5 picked Illinois), 1927 1 of 12 selectors picked them (5 picked Illinois, 3 picked Georgia), 1939 14 of 18 picked Texas A&M (3 selectors picked Cornell) so in reality only one of those is anywhere close to legitimate - 1939

The 1919 and 1927 claims were awarded retroactively by Sagarin, Billingsley, and something called the National Championship Foundation.  Polls that didn't even exist until after all the players on those teams were all dead and gone.

So not only are there no aggy alive today who saw those championships, the players on those teams never got a trophy for those "championships" and none of their peers ever considered that some obscure organization would call them "champions" many decades later.

Was the VB game a conference game? What other sports will be SEC? Baseball?

No that was round 1 of the NCAA volleyball tournament. ATM dispensed and sent back to Collie Station. Texas is a 2 seed. SMU up tonight and they're a 7 seed.

Asjia O'Neal is a joy to watch.

Don't ever try explaining why "50% off" sales simply means the retailer is still making a profit by increased sales, and that 50% is an arbitrary number based on an inflated normal price. Also don't mention how you saved 100% by sitting your ass at home watching football on black Friday. If you're lucky you only get a blank stare.

Sounds like Robinson has an offer out for Syracuse DC under his friend. 

Looch is confirming too

Robinson at some point probably wants to prove himself as a playcalling DC who designs the defense.  You cannot do that under Mike Elko.  Especially with Santucci being the second in command on that defense.

More signs pointing that direction. Says is coaching related, expect news in next couple days.
