  1. the fact that they STILL do not have a position coach or DC announced - or any coaches yet fully announced as far as i know - is a complete failure on their end. who is out recruiting for them? A&M sent Tony Jerod-Eddie (who was an analyst but got promoted by ERob when he was announced as interim) and Sean Spencer, who again has yet to be formally announced and is not on their website STILL if i am a recruit who is considering flipping how do i even know who to reach out to at A&M since there is no clarity on who is or isn't on the recruiting trail on their own website.
  2. @texifornia posted about how the Aggies United posts got taken down, which makes this even more over the top silly.
  3. i have the wood handled version of those steak knives, they are very good.
  4. we can hope the checks bounced. i hope Lane Kiffin is sending that to every single A&M recruit - "they deleted their Bryce Anderson is staying home tweet, either he is going in the portal or they couldn't come up with the money"
  5. Or, hear me out here, Eric Nahlin is completely full of shit and made something up without getting corrected by his sources because he doesn't have any good sources
  6. He’s not in the portal and it’s a complete waste of time to talk about guys who are not in the portal nor have they even been rumored to be entering
  7. hey Ketch - go work your "sources" again. this is Baron Browning. he is a LB for the Broncos, who was a 5* in the 2017 who went to Ohio State before getting drafted in the 3rd round of the NFL draft in 2021. Barion Brown is a Kentucky WR who was just named a first team all american by the sporting news as a kick returner and who is not in the portal at all.
  8. 100% of the time this picture is posted, i am going to actually chuckle at this guys face
  9. maybe he can room with Rylan Kennedy https://12thman.com/sports/football/roster/rylan-kennedy/12184 if anyone wants a quick reminder about how truly shit they were recruiting wise, they had not one...not two...not three...FOUR recruits in the last class outside the Texas composite top 100 prospects and that 4 doesn't even include the specialist they took! for a quick comparison here are the last 4 players Texas took from outside the composite top 100 - excluding specialists like Will Stone. if Texas took 4 players outside the composite top 100 TexAgs would point to that constantly as an example of how bad Texas was at identifying players 2023: Andrew Cojoe (Composite #132) 2022: Savion Red (#203) 2021: Charles Wright (#131) 2021: Max Merril (#160) Meanwhile, they took 5 total in 1 cycle (1 specialist) fuck. Jimbo really was phoning it in.
  10. he's been committed to Alabama for like 14 months and change. if he wanted to re-class and enroll at Bama it would have been the easiest thing ever and he could have done it and then dropped straight into bowl practices. ...but he didn't. which is a glimmer of hope that didn't exist before he announced his OV locations.
  11. please, please, please, please, please have their NIL cooperative sue a player.
  12. random FB accounts celebrating being #1 in the transfer portal rankings before the portal even closes is certainly a choice.
  13. if you want to laugh a little more about it, A&M has 4 conference championships since 1990 (91, 92, 93, 94, 98) - Syracuse has 6. A&M has 0 conference championships since 2000. Syracuse has 2.
  14. i've never seen a chipotle that has fewer people in it or in the parking lot at peak hours than that one. they clearly are doing well, been there like 8ish years? but that place never ever was actually busy inside.
  15. yeah, really helpful there. Nahlin has a hit rate roughly in line with Ketch over the last 5 years
  16. the odds of them being the only 3 people in that specific Chipolte were very, very high.
  17. they have a full OL rebuild ahead of them. they have guys who have taken clear steps back year over year (Fatheree, Foster), they had a freshman AA from The Athletic in Kam Dewberry who then as a soph started 1 game vs ULM TJ Shanahan played in 2 games (ULM and New Mexico.) Erb has played in 1 game over 2 years (ULM.) Thomasson played vs ULM and ACU. Crownover played in 9 games but started none. Aki played in like 4 games and had very few snaps IIRC they bring back Nabou and Zuhn who started every game this year at LG and LT. it's a full on OL rebuild, with a bunch of guys who have backslid since their first year on campus (Fatheree, Foster, Dewberry), or who weren't good in the first place (Shanahan, Thompasson, Erb, Crownover) - and getting good/talented OL is easily the toughest thing to find in the portal. ask us how Texas fans know how much having a bad OL can hold back your talented skill players. ask Texas fans about the growing pains that come with playing a super young/green OL together. meanwhile, they still have not announced their coaches (which i think means they can't recruit/do in homes?), they are burning the advantage they get from having bowl practices, we don't even know who is coaching their OL since per their website they literally have no one in that position (https://12thman.com/sports/football/coaches/2023) here are their coaches for 2024: here is what comes up if you are a recruit and search Texas A&M OL coach: they are doing everything they can to not take advantage of bowl practices, additional coaching time, doing anything different with technique with the new OL coach, recruiting, anything. in other words, they are pulling an Aggie.
  18. you left off drunker like a fatter, balding, drunker Jimbo
  19. in case you missed it, on texas football != inside texas anymore. they split Bobby off and Gerry is now exclusively at the corporate on3 level vs the IT level (although he still posts at IT i think)
  20. see this is how you know Elko isn't playing chess - he may not even be playing checkers. this seems like he is playing tic-tac-toe the smart move would have been to keep Robinson, who is already on the books anyway, make him the DC, and if he sucks you go to admin and say "you made me keep this guy, i'm going to eject him into the sun" - if he's good then he is eventually going to go elsewhere for full reign as the coordinator or take a job somewhere as a HC sooner than later. in the mean time you can use him as the recruiter he clearly is, help keep your existing class together until they sign and you can introduce your guy (Spencer) to the room slowly. instead, they fucked around and quite literally found out. their interim coach has taken another job at Syracuse of all places and is actively recruiting for that other job. yeah, he's preparing the team for their bowl game but if a recruit happens to call him on his orange phone he's going to take it.
