    It would be an amazing episode of stupidity for aggy to get rid of Sharpe over this.      But stupidity is  a badge of honor in Collie Station.

    John Sharp is a Democrat so he is hated in Aggy land.

    Just skimmed over the 247 list of OT’s. Aside from the fact that the pickings are razor thin now for uncommitteds, the fact that Kentucky has 2 Top30 OT and we’re struggling like fuck to land one (rank obsolete) is a real kick to the dick. 
     

    Related, other than staying on top of the recently missed on guys like Banks and Williams until NSD, does anybody know what the plan is moving forward?

    Is there a single one of you claiming your appraised value is bullshit who couldn’t sell it for that price or higher right now?

    Mine went up 21% and is still 20% less than my house would sell for in the next week.

    I own a duplex on Walsh Tarlton Ln that went from $707, 000 to $1,207, 000, a 71% increase. Went. Up. $500,000 in one year. Taxes went from $15.8k to 27k.  

    And it would not sell for $1.2M.  I could accept something around $900k but not $1.2M. It is a screw job. 

  4. I knew the appraisals and property taxes would go up a lot for my Travis Heights properties but the shocker was my duplex off Walsh Tarlton Ln. The value went up 500k  which is a 70.7% increase.  One. Year. That is BS. 

    Taxes on that one duplex went from $15800 to $27100 or $941/month more. At my current rental rates it will take about 6 months to just cover the property taxes. The rule used to be 3 months of rent would pay the property tax

    What The Hell

  5. The Eyes of Texas was written as a parody on President Prather in 1903 and people honestly think it is referring to slave owners keeping their eyes on runaway slaves? Really? It is not a proud fact but there were no Black students at UT for over 50 years after the song was written. What sense does it make for the students who were all white singing a racist song referring to Black slaves?

    If that were the case then it would have been documented as racists can't hide their racism for that many decades. And if the song was written for that purpose then of course we would ditch it.
