  1. It will never happen. The feds aren't suddenly going to go ok these 85 or more scholarships don't count towards gender equity so don't worry about it. I'll go ahead say it for him, @closetojumping will fist @futureman while racing @SydneyCarton in a naked 40 down the drag if they ever exempt football from Title IX.
  2. The university still receives federal dollars and would still be subject to Title IX? Football and basketball aren't suddenly exempt because they aren't in the NCAA? Also the idea that they will ever exempt football from title IX is hillarious. It would basically kill funding for most women's sports.
  3. The Title IX requirement won't go away by breaking away. We aren't subject to title IX because of the NCAA.
  4. I concur. Someone is a graduate transfer with like 2 to 3 years of eligibility remaining? Seriously?
  5. No idea on how it is today, but my mother sat next to Nobis in one of her math classes at UT and her comment was always he was a nice guy and friendly but she never remembered him showing up the day they had any test.
  6. People said the same about Coburn before his last year. Some were even somewhat critical of Sweat last year. I think Collins is capable of making that same leap forward.....now he just needs to do it.
  7. To paraphrase one BA Baracus: "Sark is on the juice"
  8. With how Billy acted surprised that they hired Elko instead of making Robinson the head coach, at least he claims he was hearing Robinson was it before they announced Elko, I wonder if Robinson thought it was his job and then feels like the rug got perked out from under we him. There was definitely a concerted effort to make Robinson look good as interim.
  9. My grandfather talked about towards the end of the month his mother packed him a lard sandwich for lunch if they were short on meat, when he was working cattle as a teenager.....bleh
  10. Future aggie head coach?
  11. I mean Looch laid the groundwork for it to be Robinson with his whole thing about how everyone had reached out to him about how impressed they were and thankful to have a coach like Robinson in the program, but to scare them with Stoops just to make Robinson more palatable would be....bizarre...
  12. The same reason they thought it was a sign of how desirable the job was to list all the possible candidates that were somehow remotely linked to the job....
  13. Well it's at least the 3rd time he has been publicly undermined and had his legs cut out from under him so...
  14. Who is trying to break it though? Looch is basically the athletic depts talking dummy. So for this logic, either the regents/sharp are hiring him and Bjork is trying to sabotage it....or he's Bjorks guy and the Athletic dept I'd leaking it in full revolt.... Neither seem particularly likely.
  15. And it's not like these names are coming from random media guys obviously being linked by agents trying to get raises, if Bjork isn't saying the names himself, Lucci is and that's practically the same thing.
  16. 1 of 2 things is happening. Either Bjork is even more inept then I have been told, which I've been told is pretty damn inept, or there are multiple factions fighting over who the next coach will be. It serves no purpose, other than disappointing and splitting your fan base to have this many coaches supposedly linked to the job. 1. When you do hire your guy, it give the perception that other guys said no. 2. It divides your fan base in too many directions over who the coach should be.....
  17. Because they are terrified the greatest recruiting class in history will bolt if they don't....
  18. 57 points ought to work for whomever has been obsessing on us breaking the 40 pt barrier....
  19. Holy crap, A&M is going full on tar and feather smear campaign on Jimbo. There is no way all this is coming out without people being told to talk to make it appear A&M had no choice.... I mean none of its surprising....but how much is coming out does shock me. Everything Jimbo did wrong short of illegal player payments is getting fed to the press.... Bjork order a code red on Jimbo....
  20. I believe the Duke beat cancer 2 times before the last batch got him. Love Dern as an actor. His character in Diggstown is always great. Plus the greatness that is Nebraska Same reason we hate Santa Anna
  21. Because Sharp plays the legislature like a fiddle and largely gets whatever appropriations or anything else he asks for. Football may get the mob stirred up, but as long as Sharp is batting 1.000 on key appropriations a&m wants or doesn't want happening, his job is safe.
  22. Bjork is in over his head. This whole coaching change is giving him enough rope to hang himself so they can replace him. The press conference fiasco when he found out we were moving to SEC was setup for him to embarrass himself.
  23. “We’ve had some excess,” he admits. “Our staff pool for the entire football program was over $13 million. Other programs in the SEC are in the $9 million to $10.5 million range.” Bjorks says other sports are safe some seeing their budgets cuts, and says job cuts will be confined to the football program. “Analysts, recruiting positions, operational positions,” Bjork says when asked where he says fat can be trimmed. He also pointed out how the Aggies’ travel budget was out of sync with other teams. "Our program under Coach Fisher was leaving [for away games] on Thursday nights," Bjork says. "And so that’s added hotel rooms, that’s added meals. Everybody else leaves on Friday for a road game."
  24. Sir I can remember people being excited when we hired an online coach who claimed he liked to use a blocking sled about 15 or so years ago...
  25. Of all the college fan false hope, new coach optimism is by far my favorite.
