Fuck aggy. IDGAF about even engaging them in the conversation.  They are such a pain in the ass on every front concerning the subject.  All they care about is themselves.   They have blocked and complicated this on every front.  They do not care about the farmers and ranchers of Texas.  It’s just all about their bullshit.  They can all go die in a gotdam fire for all I care.

I could see aggy maybe (maybe, because I don't know the facts directly, nor do I care to learn them) being ahead for a while, simply because their vet school existed first.

 

But there is zero chance they'll stay that way.

Particularly where it applies to large animal care, which is what matters to the ranchers in West Texas.

It will be a high priority for the senior Tech administrators to give aggy their comeuppance in the world of veterinary braggadocio.

An epic battle of mighty equals if there ever has been one.

A pissing match with Tech over who has the best vet school is a no-win situation for aggy, but it has immense benefits for the segment of the state economy focused on large animal production. Watching aggy overreact every time Tech pokes them with a stick is going to provide endless comedy.

Sharp is such a poor leader, once they start feeling a little pressure from Tech on the vet school front, he'll make another classic blunder, once again making aggy look the fool. Tech will win this battle with ease. And quickly.

Didn’t Tech kick aggy ass in meat judging competition for a few years running?

So if you want to go to vet school in Texas, your 2 choices are 1. a podunk shithole devoid of any culture or substance or 2. Lubbock 

Or, hear me out here, you could choose to leave Texas and go to a better vet school than both and live in ft Collins for a couple of years. 
I think aggy STRONGLY prefers their vet students to have attended undergrad at aggy, so that’s a 6 year decision. Hopefully tech doesn’t care and takes the best applicants it can.

One would hope as the Tech University system develops their veterinary school and education programs, there will be other locations in addition to Lubbock. Amarillo, Odessa, and El Paso make intuitive sense considering Tech has a presence in those cities in terms of having health sciences centers.

Tech having 4 locations for a vet school in that proximity makes no sense at all. Maybe el paso but still. I would guess a lot of panhandle vets are close to 60/40 aggy and Colorado state.

 

It would make more sense for aggy to have vet schools in CS, Houston, and Dallas simply from population density.

aggy prefers that for literally every one of their graduate programs, which is the exact opposite of how it should be.  Sometimes they even make it a formal policy for admission.  Bassackwards fucks.

They kicked everyone's ass.  Someone posted an interesting article a while back about Tech's domination.

You find heavy concentrations of commercial livestock ranching activity in densely populated urban centers, do you? 

Unfortunately for John Sharp, just because College Station smells a feedlot, that doesn’t make it the prime location for a vet school in Texas.

And therein lies the problem.

The Texas Tech vet School will be located in Amarillo not Lubbock

It is going to be on the same campus as the Amarillo HSC (which does not offer an MD degree that is Lubbock and El Paso) and the pharmacy school which is headquartered out of Amarillo and is a part of the Lubbock HSC

The Vet school is going to be a part of the main university though. It will not be a part of the Lubbock HSC (and associated campuses) that is a separate institution from the university or the El Paso HSC which is also a separate institution from both the University and the Lubbock et al HSC.

For a while it looked as though the vet school might be a part of the Lubbock HSC (and associated campuses).

What about a Sterling City branch?

Have you been following this story? Tech wants a vet school to focus more on large animals (livestock) to meet the needs of west Texas ranchers. Aggy already focuses on pets and fucking sheep.

Shit man this hits close to home.  We are planning on moving back to Texas (born and raised in Austin) from VA by summer of 2022. My daughter is hell bent on being a vet and I don't want her to be an aggy.  So we are looking at Tech.  Did not know that the Vet school itself is in Amarillo. Here's to hoping she decides to do something else and she can follow her Uncles footsteps and attend UT.

Regardless....they can both claim to be in "top 10"!

I wonder if aggy will take a World War 1 artillery piece and load it on a train to Amarillo, in furtherance of their tradition?

They had some sound bites from Ross Bjork, former worst member of ABBA and current aggy AD, on the evening news just now. As a side note, we moved to the San Antonio area two years ago and still amazed at the gallons of aggy jizz consumed by those stations.

Anyway Bjork said he expected all “102 733 thousand” seats at Pyle Field to be full. Now they’re just making up numbers

Aggy vet talk not going away.

You know, I could get a good feel of a t-bone by sticking my entire arm up a bulls ass, but I'd rather take the aggys word for it.

The pine tree stump sitting area is really nice.

The worst part is I don’t see a pine tree in the yard. Like they just brought that shit in to pretend to sit on. It’s excusable to have them around if you just cut a tree up.

At a memorial for a family friend and after they had a crawfish boil.  His son and all his friends are mostly aggies.  One guy just went on for five minutes about a picture of the college station skyline that he just bought...  Seriously.
