  1. I'm sure your memories are better. My intel is from an oSu alum who claimed Gundy tried to steal his date from him at a frat mixer back in the day. He's maintained the family's season tix since the '70s and has had mostly a hate/love attitude towards MG as coach.
  2. It's not any secret that Holgorsen was forced on Gundy by Holder (and probably Boone). Or that Gundy resented Holgy getting so much credit for the offense's output in 2010. Or maybe Gundy was just pissed that Holgy was living in the Atherton, getting drunk and banging coeds in the bars in Stilly and missing all of the mandatory 8AM staff meetings.
  3. 3-9 might not even rank in the worst ten seasons all time for the Pokes.
  4. What are they gonna pin on him, not being Eddie Sutton's designated driver in 2006? But let's say they reduce his contract and tell him the money he's forfeiting has to go to their NIL. He's making $7.5mm now, right? How much of a haircut are they going to give him & what impact do they expect that to have? Would he take a $2.5mm pay cut and hope that allows him to buy another 5 years worth of employment?
  5. Whoa. The plot thicks. What could oSu possibly have on Gundy that they're confident enough to say "sign this reduced contract or we're gonna fire you & not pay you a dime"?
  6. When @closetojumping is shocked by this kind of development.....whoaaaaa. [emoji869][emoji869][emoji869][emoji869]
  7. Methinks Joey is following the Jerrah Jones rule of "it doesn't matter what they say about you, what's important is to be talked about." Staying in the national media's eye in Lubbock is its own challenge. He's probably got Post-it notes all over his office reminding him to say something-anything-that has the potential to go viral.
  8. Did Bowman look at Brandon Weeden as a child and say, "someday I'm gonna break your record as the oldest starting QB in Oklahoma State history"?
  9. I don't think anyone's arguing that Gundy hasn't lost his fastball or that he's equipped to be a successful coach in this era. Do oSu fans and alums expect CFP appearances? I'm guessing they'd be thrilled with being bowl eligible most years plus being in the mix for the occasional BXII CCG. They'll tolerate more clunkers than most, because as 'stache has repeatedly pointed out, they know that life post-Gundy is going to be shitastic.
  10. Gundy's not getting canned unless they find him with a dead girl or a live boy. Last year's horseshit season aside, he's the most successful football coach in their program's history by a mile.
  11. It's not fair when the site owner spits out the perfect site motto. Geesh.
  12. If Looch deleted every comment where he was proven to be wrong, would he have any posting history?
  13. Pat lookalike Graham Harmon ain't gonna post an SEC power ranking this week. He's holding out hope that Georgia beats us in the CCG so he can then post a final season ranking. In that scenario Georgia will be the clear #1 and he'll rank Texas somewhere around 6 or 7, claim our season was a fluke/result of a week schedule, etc. He'll rank aggy one spot behind us but claim they've got momentum & better positioned for long term success in the SECX3. Even if Texas mudholes UGA this weekend, he'll still list Georgia as #1 since we'd have split with them. Texas would be an overrated #2 in this scenario. TL;DR he's a little troll searching for clicks.
  14. Poor aggies.
  15. So there's a t-shirt aggy at my local pub. Decent enough kid, but he's too stupid to learn not to bet on aggy. For the past 3 or 4 years he's had a variation of a standing bet w/ 2 or 3 of his Longhorn friends. And this will be the 4th year in a row he's lost. His payout to the other guys is like a grand total, which isn't a small amount of money for this guy. This year he got aTM plus 6.5 points. Ooops. Another G down the drain. Lulz.
  16. I love this team [emoji869]
  17. Doing what needs to be done. Get off a clean punt & let the defense take it home.
  18. Man's game, y'all [emoji869][emoji869]
  19. Time to destroy them on this series.
  20. Reed self tackled & rolled his own ankle.
  21. 17-0 is a helluva start [emoji869]
  22. Yep. Definitely worth watching. Who knew Christopher Cross was quite the drug dealer in his early years?
  23. Suck it, buckeyes!
  24. Why did Michigan call timeout?
  25. Suck it, Bucks.
