Couldn't disagree more.  I think they found the perfect gomer.  He's as fucking hayseed as it gets.

 

Oh i think he'll fit in just fine...and STILL leave when he's given a better job opportunity.

Where do all the Texas State grads get jobs with the demise of casual dining restaurants?

 

Well, my sister  is a hospital administrator (undergrad and masters at Texas St. - called Southwest Texas back then). She's done pretty well for herself. Makes more money than I do with my UT degree and masters. 

 

 

Of course, I'm kind of a fuck up.

IMO - the young Bucky hire can do big things for aggy. I am surprised that Trev reached down to that level of a hire, considering the $$$ they espouse.

His intro/PC was pretty good for a youngster. I’ll sit back and watch, as maybe aggy has their next guy for two decades.

Hook’em!!!

in today's version of "so many of them lack self awareness" (there are a couple that seem to have become self aware)

Our wealthier fans don't usually make a show of lighting money on fire. But the day is early!

We had the number 1 recruiting class OF ALL TIME 4 years ago. Those guys are now seniors. Tech can't compete with that.

Ah yes, the Mennonites are know for being big college boosters. That’s why poor ol’ TAMU can’t compete. The Mennonites.

I'd hate to rely on the Mennonites for my road game travel arrangements.  They probably play all the home games in daylight, gonna be hard to light the field with oil lamps and candles.

 

don't forget about the measles. 

And the cheese. They got some pretty damn good cheese. The cheese might make up for the measles.

Marcel Reed ranked embarrassingly low in list of SEC quarterbacks; Why he can rocket up similar lists in 2025
It's no secret that Marcel Reed had a tough start as the quarterback for Texas A&M football when he was forced to step in for Conner Weigman two games into the season. Reed's passing ability was eyebrow-raising in a pretty negative way, and I personally was numbered among the doubters at first.

But something changed midseason. The guy who held onto the ball at all costs, taking hardly any risks, and therefore limiting the potential of the offense, all of a sudden looked like a completely different player after he came in against LSU.

He didn't really pass the ball all that much against the Tigers, but in the ensuing games— and despite losses— you'd be hard-pressed to see the same guy as you did before. It's that improvement that caused me to declare he had a chance at a top-3 designation among QBs in the conference going into 2025, but apparently not everyone shares that opinion.

image.png.508fe3d229c9e4638fc4a409b38e2840.png
There are a couple of confusing placements on this list, for sure. For example, here are the numbers of no. 2 on the list, LaNorris Sellers: 8.5 YPA on 65.6% completion and 211.2 YPG. For Reed, since coming on after the LSU game, his numbers look like this: 7.6 YPA on 64% completion and 241.8 YPG.

The rushing threat is a factor for each guy, of course. And it should be said that Reed and Sellers have vastly different styles when they're carrying the rock: Sellers more resembles Cam Newton, while Reed's elusiveness makes him look like a shifty receiver when he pulls the ball down.

While I'm not saying that Sellers should be ranked below Reed, I don't think the gap is as large as it's being made to seem in this listing. I also think a lot is being taken for granted with a guy like Austin Simmons, and especially the strange placement of Bama's either/or at QB.

If nothing else, I think this speaks to the fact that Reed's progression over the course of the season is being largely ignored thanks to the Aggies' losing streak down the stretch. That's understandable, on one level, but the encouraging progress he showed should keep Aggie fans excited— even if he does have something to prove to the rest of the nation.

Who knows if it's true, but when I was a kid, I heard the story about Shelby finding out one of his players got 4 F's and a D on his report card. Shelby's response: Son, you're spending too much time on one subject.

Moses found that one on Mount Sinai--that one and "If you'll help me find my keys, we'll drive out."

Maybe the saddest thing about aggy is that the vast majority of their time is spent trying to compare themselves to us, usually with excuses about mistreatment unfairly causing them to fall short... while our references to them are 99.9999999999% of the form "I could use a good laugh, let's see what aggy is up to."

The worst part of that list is Arch is at least 2 spots too low.  I'll give them Sellers, Nuss, and even the Tennesse Guy...Vandy QB maxed out last year, but it's not a travesty to have him above Arch either.

Arch will be the best QB in the SEC this year. Sellers is his best competition.

But that's the thing.  It's not we.  Graham isn't even an Aggie.  He's just auditioning hard for Billy's succession plan.

Bucky's received his Texags talking points.  NIL changed everything.  TAMU has the best fans and the most resources in the country.  Everything is possible.
