  1. Shame on the previous downturn at Texas for making this more of a game than it should be.. that being said, I expect Texas to put a beatdown on those roaches. As they said in the 80's

  2. @RomaVicta is 100% correct "Their studs aren't just mercenaries; they're mercenaries that signed on for winning as well as money. If they were winning, they might just start loving dear old A&M, but they're not. " -- worse -- some of their really good studs are from out of state. You cannot tell me the list of these players from Tennessee, Georgia and Florida don't have options in the portal? I can't believe Nolen hasn't already portal'd to TN. Heck .. I'm sure even the Houston guys are looking at LSU.

    Interesting question.

    I'd guess the much larger dragon can generate way more power with the size and breadth of their wingspan than the smaller dude.

    It did look like an aerial dogfight when Luke used the narrow passage between the cliffs to shake Vhagar off his tail.  Pretty cool.  They need a Top Gun for dragon riders.

    I gotta do something here, I still can believe it. I gotta give you your dream shot! I'm gonna send you up against the best. You two characters are going to Dragon Top Gun.

    The contract is fully-guaranteed, and I believe they would need to pay the full amount within like 6 months of being fired. There's literally no reason for him to negotiate a buyout. He has all the leverage. 

    This.... I mean he could just do the barest of min (which he is), lose every game (which he could) and collect that money. I assume 'for cause' doesn't include sucking at  your job. The more I think about it... what would I care about any future employment options. There is 90M sitting on the table to collect. He could ride this out and return to WV and cook moonshine for the next 5 generations plus. I would come to work, watch tape (I guess), go to practice, go to games, etc. and just sleep walk my way thru the next X  years.. easy money.

    Shamelessly stealing a post from Bull Sprig at Work on Orangebloods. You hate to see it but, then again, you love to see it. 


    in his most recent Podcast, Looch says "not a pretty scene" in the locker room after the SC loss.

    "This is a fractured locker room. There is no leadership. It looks like a totally rudderless ship out there"

    in reference to the pressure, Jimbo is under: "He can't yell his way out of it" "Unbelievable to watch Conor Weigman out there for 4 or 5 plays and he's getting his ass chewed coming off the field after the first possession of his college career"

    "everything looks like a train wreck out there"

    "real fear with the way things are going, Jimbo is going to look up at end of the season and all the talented Freshmen are going to portal out"

    "It is like the Titanic and people looking for life rafts The program is to the point where it is every man for himself"




    on TexasAgs:

    lots of discussions about players being on double-secret suspension and not playing ( smoke that it was Denver Harris and a couple of others)

    up to 4 players were rumored to be out partying in Columbia Friday night - might be related to above

    word is getting around that numerous players are looking to possibly opt-out for 2022 and then portal out

    1. Thank you for this

    2. I'm going to need a ton more of this to wash down that loss but thank you.

  6. Going today - Chili, Double meat, double cheese, double grilled japs - no frito chips.. Onion rings. Will advise. 

    Anderson Lane Whataburger. Online order. Was cold. Bun was stale. Chili was ok. Ate all of it bc it’s Whataburger and I’m a good Texan but…. They are slipping.

    Oh man.. After that segment, Billy drops a nuke. "What Josh Heupel is doing in year 2, Jimbo damn near did in game two with a close loss to Clemson." LOL

    Those glory hole weirdos ...It's always horseshoes and hand grenades with them.. So close and yet.. should be counted as a win.
