    Maybe you're just doing less with less. You have lesser coaches working for historically mediocre programs that don't recruit at high levels unless there's lots of money or the recruits have been indoctrinated from an early age. 

    The assumption that A&M is somehow "more" or a sleeping giant is a part of your dishonest mythology that includes stories of the corps loading artillery onto a flatcar to shell Waco or how you're the victim in every riot you started. The absurd tragedy of the bonfire fiasco is turned into something heroic. You build an idiotically big tower of logs without a safe plan for doing so.

    The day will not come that the veil that hides the extraordinariness will be lifted for all will see how wonderful A&M really is. There is no veil. Everybody sees a bunch of weirdos. Fine, embrace that. Congratulate yourselves on delusions of being a "part of something bigger than yourselves."

    Constant self-congratulation and certainty that nothing can be wrong is the magic combination for success in any endeavor. Keep up the good work!

    I read this initially not knowing the author. Upon conclusion, I thought, "This sounds like Roma." Boom!

    Well done, RV!

    So, to summarize, in the last year and a half they have hired:

    - a football coach with two years of HC experience 

    - a baseball coach with ZERO HC experience

    - a basketball coach with five years HC experience at a sub mid-major school and ZERO coaching experience at the P4 level

    What a time to be aggy, huh?

    Gentlemen I take back all I have said, my Ags are on track to bring it all home in 2029.
