No one has claimed or said anything about being satisfied or happy with the last 2 years results. First sentence in the assessment is the most accurate. A Heisman, beating #1, #3 and #7 ranked teams are actual results but fall short of where A&M is expecting to go. But it's an "Incomplete" until he either delivers or not this year and next.
I do recall all Longhorns and many media "gurus" GUARANTEEING a perpetual last place A&M position in the SEC and they got b!tch-slapped in the nuts watching A&M become the hottest team in the entire college football world right out the gate. Again, there isn't a single Aggie, or Aggie Coach, content with the overall results. That's why the best Defensive Coordinator in the business was brought in and other coaching moves too. Mack Brown started 9-3, 9-5, 9-3 and had similar question marks about his ability. The next 8 years were his best. So while I understand that Longhorn fans reach for any excuse to knock A&M it looks pretty silly in context.
Let's enjoy this year and bring this thread back up in January. I'm willing to wager that your coach is going to make the Top of the list this time next year.
Texas going undefeated and playing for a MNC in 2009 is ancient history and we are living in the past.
aggsy 4 years removed from their first decent season since the 80's and that is aggsy living in the present.
Draw your own conclusions.
