  1. Bill Bradley, Vince Young, and Kasey Studdard played with a similar mentality. It's been missing for far too long.
  2. Someone should let Howell know that the only cheerleaders aggy fans will listen to are these:
  3. That is what I have always found odd about the emotional takes on grass. I used to work with a coach who would only play his playoff games on turf because it helped with a speed advantage and because it's what his team played on at home. He clearly didn't feel his players were injured more often. Grass versus turf should depend on what the team needs and how they use the field. I do not believe what is best for one is best for all.
  4. That was a great grass surface. I am not sure who would argue against it. The problem is we were not able to maintain that type of surface.
  5. Well again, the iteration of grass before we lowered the field was great. I remember reading about all the pump and drainage technology when it was installed, and then the 1996 Mizzou game was a fantastic demonstration in real life. That grass wore and held up well. Whatever they did differently after lowering the field was abysmal. I would be all for having grass like we had before lowering the field. Having grass like after the lowering just to have grass is fucking stupid and I would be adamantly against it.
  6. I was here during the Charlie Strong years. We already tried that.
  7. How do you catch rainwater when it doesn't rain?
  8. Surely this is just mocking the SEC national championship rematches that nobody wanted to see.
  9. You sonofabitch. You're going to make me listen to Christmas music in September.
  10. You just admitted you fly Southwest. It's a flying clown car. Who am I kidding? Most airlines are flying Wal-Marts these days. But I do hate Southwest.
  11. How would that work out during an intense drought and water rationing?
  12. Because our last grass field was absolute shit. Once they lowered the field, that iteration of our grass was horrid. The original grass when we went from turf to grass at the onset of the Big 12 was fantastic. Not sure what they got wrong in the re-do, whether it was drainage or just bad grass, but it got torn up so badly each year. That kind of poor surface is bad for everyone. It’s too much of a variable. I played and have been to hundreds of football games at all levels of football. Grass is best, but shitty grass is not better than modern turf. And I do not believe modern turf causes more knee injuries (don’t know about other lower extremity injuries) than grass. I read a study on it one time. Old Astroturf definitely caused injuries.
  13. Ketch has already licked his screen 3 times and taken a bite out of the monitor.
  14. They should take another shot at it. I bet Jimbo would sign for 15 years $150 million today. Hell, he’d probably even sign for 15 years and $200 million. Sharp should make the pitch.
  15. And this is the same school that made a fucking crazy deal extending Kevin Sumlin and Mike Sherman before Jimbo. They're idiots and will never learn.
  16. Davis Beavis And this is by a school whose former President was taking advantage of and fucking male students. Lebby's "just family" is an albatross around the necks of even a garbage university like Oklahoma.
  17. In my years of playing football, I never needed to see anything in a huddle, except playing on the playground and drawing plays in the dirt.
  18. Whaddaya think now, Billy Boy? Too bad he didn't want to coach anymore after he signed that contract. And they have been right since 1940. If someone wants to know the truth about Texas A&M, they would be wise to look for information somewhere other than Texags, Billy Liucci, Taylor Hamm, etc. There is no objectivity or self-reflection in College Station, Texas.
  19. Yep. I took a rag to dry our seats off that morning and the bench had a layer of water standing on it.
  20. No. Could be that after the Bo Davis video a couple of years ago, players aren’t allowed/no longer video private team moments post-game.
