Just a reminder to all Aggys

We have 4 in the modern era. You have 0. And you’ll never win one in your lifetime.

One with Vince Young. All of the others were in the days with no scholarship limits, A&M being all military, etc etc. Since those things have changed, the head to head record is close to .500 and you have 1 title. But hey, keep spinning!
 
Boo hoo. Spin the reality that we’ve won 4 and you’ve won jack squat.

4 in the modern era. Go cry a little, lesser.

One title in modern era. Just the facts! Should have 6, were close on a few others, but at the end of the day, only one!

Yeah that’s false. But it’s ok. You’re a complete loser aggy. That’s why.

Anyway I’ve seen us win it all. It was awesome. Let me know if you’d like me to tell you about that night we won (since you’ll never experience it). Such a great night.

Jimbo and Aggy are forcing these recruits to commit.
He is pretty much telling them to jump into the truck before someone else will get their seat.

Problem with that is you are creating the illusion that this truck or football program is going somewhere.

When November comes around some of these players might want to jump out of the truck

Funny thing is when Aggy was all military the REAL military schools were the power programs
Research Army and Navy in the 30's-60's.
Army was once considered a top tier program

At least research this false narrative you repeat so you do not sound like a retarded parrot.
 
To some degree yes, but Bama isn’t exactly waiting and neither is Georgia. A&M has put together some very nice players that are elite. A hell of a lot of top 100 and I’ll wager with you now 2 of those 4 stars will end up 5 stars. You will finish with a good class no doubt but to try and make it sound like A&M isn’t getting elite player s makes you sound silly.

What's silly is you guys pretending aggy decommit season doesn't exist. You never learn.

Enter Dylan Wright. One of the most self centered athletes I've ever seen. All this guy is worried about is getting that paycheck. Nothing else. You really think he's gonna be loyal? Especially when you guys start getting your asses handed to you? Lol

Not saying we're gonna take him. I highly doubt that. Like I said, he's self centered, and you bet your ass he sees the boat load of top WRs we have, and are still getting, as too much competition. You know, guys like Jordan Whittington, who you guys fought tooth and nail for? Lol.

Pretty sure he ends up at another $EC school. Maybe Alabama, after watching Tua pass for 600 yards on your pathetic bunch.
 
Aggys are getting their new coach bump in recruiting like we had last year. Next year things will even out when the shine wears off.
 
No your class isn’t as good as our #3 class last year. Half of yours is 3-Star bread. You’ll drop as soon as many other teams fill their classes. But it’s moot anyway as you mentioned. You’ll never win titles wherever this class is ranked.
When you compare

wjat you don’t understand is EVERY school loses players. Kids are kids in a different way these days. Self glorification and all about me attitudes rule the world. I’m sure we will lose some because yes there are players who just fear competition as well. We have 5 really good DBs. Will one go elsewhere because he may not play? Maybe. I’m with you. I don’t get overly excited because of recruits right now. I know Jimbo has always been a great recruiter and better than most, until the ink is dry I don’t buy into anything. Ill take the momentum and enjoy currently. As for Wright, you would be thrilled to have him. He May end up elsewhere but so might a couple of your recruits if Herman shows he isn’t it either. It’s recruiting season, I’m not holding my breath on any of them but I would be worried that Alabama and Oklahoma are our recruiting competition at the moment..not Texas

Yes, everybody loses some commits. What you don't understand is that nobody gets players flipped away from them year in, and year out, on the level aggy does. Enough so that the phrase "aggy decommit season" was coined.

This is a result of your high pressure sales tactics, born out of desperation to get ahead of daddy. You pressure them to commit too soon, they watch the garbage you guys put on the field during their senior seasons, and start realizing they screwed up.

Anyway, good luck to ya. See you in aggy decommit season. Btw, Jordan Whittington laughed at you guys for trying too hard when you landed the swagcopter in Cuero. Lol

LOL that Alabama and Oklahoma are your only recruiting competition. Do you not remember just 5 months ago Texas finished with the #3 class and currently has a higher average rating you. Like I said, you are enjoying some momentum right now but the shine will wear off after a season and a few losses. Right now Jimbo can't do no wrong, but once he starts having to answer for losses and starts getting criticism about different things the landscape will change. I don't think you will have any noteworthy decommits because they are being recruited as his guys and will be the ones to turn it around, they have a favorable depth chart and the season shouldn't have much effect on that. Next years class will not have that same message and will be a harder sell. JImbo loaded his staff up with recruiters and will play the game so I do think he will always recruit well but he will need to be successful on the field in the future.
 
There's no doubt that we should have more. We should have played for the title in 2008. One dumb ass dropping an int caused us not too. Lest you forget we cracked Ohio states skull in that bcs game. 2009 against bama, we were down by 3 with 5 minutes left in the game and a freshman QB ha played every down after the first series. Even you, as an aggy must admit, if colt doesn't get hurt, we walk in that game. One of my close friends who STARTED at qb for bama, Freddy Kitchens, sat right across from me and admitted so.

Now, if you're objective and use your brain, you understand, as we do, that Texas missed out on one, possibly two national titles.

Win one or both of those, and the entire college football landscape changes.

You left out the '83 Cotton Bowl game against Georgia. All Texas had to do was punt the football and not drop it and we win the game and the NC. Miami went on to win it that night by beating Nebraska in the Orange Bowl. You have to wonder if Texas had won it that year and not Miami, what the CFB landscape would have looked like beyond 1983. Would Miami have had as much success as they did if Texas had won it in '83?
 
You guys have one championship in the modern era of college football once the playing field became a little more level. You talk like you have won as many as Bama. Yes, you should have 5 or 6 with all the advantages you have, but you have 1. No spin, just the facts.

This always cracks me up coming from Ags as they have all the same advantages plus being closer to both Houston and Dallas.
 
"Hmm, intelligent comment. I’m guessing you expected Herman to win 10 games in year 1? Why didn’t he win? Where were you posting the Longhorns should win in Herman or Strong’s year one. Where are you now posting how well Texas will do this year?"

Hmmm i think anything less than 9 wins is an underwelming season for TEXAS this year......for aggy i see 7 wins as the ceiling but i think 6 wins is probably a fair win total to predict from me. While you are looking for "intelligent" comments how about this.....aggy will not win a national championship in your lifetime....same as your fathers and more and likely your grandfathers. Mediocrity runs through the veins at aggy land and who am i to argue with irrelevancy.....since 1939.
Mediocrity ran through the veins of Clemson too. Then Dabo happened. I'm not saying one thing about A&M and how great they are going to be. I am a believe it when I see it person. I hated the past several hires at A&M. I was never a Sumlin fan, never a Sherman fan, and I wasn't sold on Franchione. I liked the buzz of Franchione, but I wasn't sold. I will say I love Jimbo, and I think he actually has a clue about what he is doing. I think he will always put a great staff together, and yes I believe he can win and be very successful and A&M. I think this is the best coaching hire in a long time. HOWEVER, I approach the idea with caution, because until A&M really breaks through, you are correct on the idea that mediocrity has been an issue. I think A&M has everything it needs to be very good. You always hear sleeping giant, and yes I believe they are, but they have been asleep for a long time. Year 3 of Jimbo is when I expect things to start happening.

I guess you have hope because Jimbo hasn't coached a season yet.

Mike Sherman was actually building that team the correct way.
Don't know if Sherman would have gotten them over the edge but he gave Sumlin the tools for the 2012 season
Jimbo hasn't came anywhere close to 11-2 and you are already calling him the GOAT.


Clemson is not Texas A&M.....
Don't know where this came from.

Clemson has always been the big time football school in S Carolina.
USCjr won their first bowl game in history in 99-2000?
Clemson had already established itself by then as a football school.
 
So by this rationale, you're saying that aggy has thrown in their lot with jimbo, ($75 million to be exact) and if jimbo can't get it done, then nobody can get it done?

Because that's what it sounds like you're saying. And if this isn't what you're saying, if jimbo fails, is there an extra extra hail Mary pass that aggy has? <----- yes, I'm being a smart a$$ but I think we both know that this is what it is...... the last, great desperate heave of aggy to become a contender. Just own it. I wish you the best but given the track record, I honestly don't see this playing out any better than the previous attempts. Do I think he gets you guys a couple of 10 win seasons in the next decade? I can see that. Is that enough to keep him in his job? Only time will tell.

Aggy fans are so delusional.

Bama will never allow them to become a threat while Alabama is winning

Just look at Ole Miss. They beat Bama twice in a row and end up on probation.

Aggy wasn't put into the SEC to win according to the people in Bham
They wanted Aggy cause they have a chance to get Texas players and Televisions without UT.
 
Well Bob.....when you got close to ten 3 stars.....saying hi from 4 star Dylan Wright must seem like aggy just won a national championship in the "modern" era.....put that up on that stadium wall while you're at it......aggy is and aggy will always be the butt of jokes. Aggy wants to be relevant soooo bad.....it has to suck not even being able to re live that one glory day in aggy history in 1939.......hell i've never seen that so called 1939 championship team on ESPN classic....what a shame.
My parents' favorite football game from their student days was the 1940 UT/A&M game. UT 6-0. End of era for aggys.

Maybe I didn't say that clearly, but I know Texas will always be competition, but what I'm saying now is that Jimbo is the only coach we have had in my memory that could really go out into other states and recruit the way he can. He just came off a 6-6 season where recruits could say the luster is gone. Jimbo can coach as well. My point was that we don't win many head to head battles with kids that Alabama and LSU really want. Of course A&M will have to win on the field to keep the momentum going, but there will always be a lure of MANY kids to play in the SEC because false perception or not, it is always regarded as a premier con

I don't know that I'm saying it's Jimbo or bust, but wouldn't you say this has been our best hire in recent memory? I can't think of anyone else that is that kind of name recognition or there was such a buzz about. He will recruit better than anyone we have ever had. I was looking back at all the A&M classes since 2002. I think we topped out at 6, but many were high teens. There was a stat that I saw recently that said 55% of teams that have 2 top 5 classes in a 4 year span have won national championships. Obviously you have to have talent to win and we just haven't put together any type of top level classes consistently to compete at that elite level. I do believe Jimbo will get some top 5-10 classes. From there we will see if he can coach. The problem is we are currently number 3 and 3rd in the SEC. Georgia is building a beast and Alabama is Alabama. I would agree Jimbo was a desperate reach with the money. I applaud the commitment to strive for excellence, but we will see how it turns out. IF, and I say IF because there is no past to back this up, but If Jimbo could reach the playoffs and eventually win a national championship and it is shown that A&M can win then I think the sky would be the limit. I'm optimistic more than I have been in a LONG time, but you are right, time will tell.

You know.....i think i may have found some aggy logic in landing all those 3 stars......if you land enough 3 stars that nobody else really wants then the likelihood of them de-committing is very likely......i like it aggy....genius i tell you.....just genius.
 
There is a reason why Tom Herman and his staff are quiet for the most part and looking at other players.

For the most part the only player that is commited to Aggy that UT really wants is DeMarvin Leal.

Leal is still looking around.
None of those players have signed LOI and their recruitment was based on a plan of UT failing and Aggy winning.


You can't tell players they must commit early and then not expect them to look elsewhere
 
Aggy is winning the instate recruiting battle this year, they have several players that Herman really wanted. There is no spinning that. Herman has done a nice job of finding players out of state to fill the class, but it is extremely difficult to pull the really big fish out of state away from the regional powers when we are not winning championships.
 
For the most part the only player that is commited to Aggy that UT really wants is DeMarvin Leal.
So Herman wouldn't really like Brian Williams, Kenyon Green, Demani Richardson, Baylor Cupp, Dylan Wright, or Christian Harris. Wow. That is surprising. I would have thought Leal was one of many.

13 guys on the composite top 247 and you only like 1. 17 4 star+ guys on ESPN including 14 ESPN 300 guys, and only 1 is worthy.

Learn something new everyday. You guys have a really nice class coming.

It is how the coach rates them and then how they develop them.

Leon Slo'Neal was considered a top 100 player last year and UT rated him as a PWO.
A&M is building their future D around a S that runs a 4.86 40.

That means you can't play man coverage with your corners because your S can't cover ground

LSU and now UT are the two best schools at rating DBs.

Then why did Texas offer so many of those Aggie commits? Sour grapes man. Texas would take MANY of the current A&M commits. A&M would take several of the Longhorn commits. Come on man. Let me let you in on a secret..some Texas kids are still looking around as well. They are 17 years old.

Brian Williams did not want to compete with Caden Sterns.
Sterns is the real diamond. Williams is a great S and an even better student but he is afraid of competition.

Texas has room for only one more WR.
With the situation around Wilson I think UT made the right decision.
Wilson is the one who has stood out

Richardson??
Texas is in the running for Lewis Cine

Herb Hand rated Johnson ahead of Green.

Cupp was a lost.
UT could always go back but I don't think they rated the other two any lower


Leal is their second rated DT behind the DT from Louisiana.
Leal is the only prize that Aggy has over UT this recruiting cycle, IMO.
 
Sounds like Dylan Wright was really waiting on Clemson, but Clemson said no thanks, we're full. Hmmm, very telling.
 
"So Herman wouldn't really like Brian Williams, Kenyon Green, Demani Richardson, Baylor Cupp, Dylan Wright, or Christian Harris. Wow. That is surprising. I would have thought Leal was one of many"


I think TEXAS would take a few......go ahead and name those stellar 3 stars so we can see how many of those TEXAS would take. Im betting its between how many national football titles AtM has (1) and how many they have won since 1939 (0)

O'Neal might end up having to play rover, I'll give you that. But he is also not a member of this years class. He was part of last year's transition class. Both schools struggled with their transition class, Herman more so than Jimbo imo. Neither was great.

The DB's you picked up last year and the one's we picked up this year didn't require genius level ratings by coaches. It required recruiting them and hopefully being able to sign them. I believe 100% of those guys were top 250 composite guys. So Einstein wasn't required to find some hidden gem.
