  1. Begs the question of how not correcting a type of mistakes effects them. edit dang, someone beat me to the punch
  2. Aggy has hypothetical wins. Fantana has hypothetical SI claims on our behalf. Too bad we have never fired a coach, or he could have tested his theories.
  3. I quoted to make finding it easier for you
  4. Charlotte Bingham was the Vice Chancellor who investigated Craig James' allegations. These snippets are culled from her deposition in which one can see that the substance of Adam James accusations, namely that he was confined in an electrical closet as his video suggested, was materially false. (Deposition of Charlotte Bingham at p. 80.) Indeed the trainer who took Adam James to the media room specifically told Adam James he did not want him in the electrical closet. (Deposition of Charlotte Bingham at p. 80-81.) Yet Adam went in there on his own. “Adam James told me that he went into the electrical closet and that he stood in the electrical closet for approximately five minutes.” (Deposition of Charlotte Bingham at p. 83.) Therefore, she reported back to Texas Tech officials that “Adam was not confined in the electrical closet.” (Deposition of Charlotte Bingham at p. 195-196.) The President’s Chief of Staff, Grace Hernandez, also investigated these allegations and said Adam “never had to stand in electrical closet.” (Deposition of Charlotte Bingham at p. 150.) Ms. Bingham never recommended dismissal of Coach Leach. (Deposition of Charlotte Bingham at p. 46.) Even granting arguendo that Tech had a technicality on which they could have fired Leach, the world hates the administration that did it. When you stand up for them, you help answer the question of why people still look down on Tech and many of its apologists.
  5. No. Tech knew they would lose a lawsuit and invoked sovereign immunity to avoid facing one. Do more homework on the nitty gritty details.
  6. Tech needs to take a little sliver out of that pile of cash they are throwing around and (1) pay his widow what they owe Leach, and (2) publicly disavow the way they treated him. It would make Tech as an institution easier not to despise. Obviously nowhere near the gravity, but they seem to act similarly to how Pedo and Baylor are treating their scandals. Just don't talk about it and wait for people to get over it.
  7. Why should Surly writ large not hate Pate? A large percentage of us hate everything the others of us post, and some even hate their own stuff.
  8. So apparently Tech is going to allow tortillas in the stadium. The plan is to encourage fans to throw them at opening kickoff, expect to eat one of their two warnings, and hope no one throws them again during the game.
  9. Friendly amendment: and begged a guy who had quit the team to agree to play again buy never put him in the game.
  10. Texas 93 tOSU 3 OK so maybe rather: Texas 30 tOSU 24 Arch Total 300
  11. I don't think aggy Pat™ believes what (s)he serves the ag faithful. I find it quite likely that the gag is just too much fun, and now profitable from the clicks, to abandon.
  12. So they were a hypothetical fourth down conversion away from not losing to a mediocre team and hence being allowed to play a second time against a team that, in the words of their coach, annihilated them. They must be so proud.
  13. I think you completely misunderstood. My point is that the line has moved toward Texas from tOSU -2.5.
  14. If I read the ESPN site correctly, the line is down to -2. I have to think that smart money is going to bet heavy for OSU sooner or later if we are really limping into the game without any tackles.
  15. Whatever bad things Larry Scott and the PAC thought might happen if they worked with Texas re the LHN and whatever else don't seem so bad in hindsight, now do they? Texas is probably the winner in that deal's breaking down. There was a culture of screwing the golden goose in that conference as well. USC got tired of being the school the envious little siblings pissed on and left for greener pastures.
  16. Texas left the SWC but was not the first. Texas left the Big 12 but was not the first, and the conference, contrary to your claim, is still together without Texas. Texas Tech left the Border Conference, which died. They left the SWC, which died. They are in their third conference. Are they conference assassins? Did Texas kill the Big East or the Pac 12? Are you retarded?
  17. Being named the #1 or #2 most over-rated team over the last 10 years is necessarily going to draw significant push-back and anger from them because it contradicts a central tenet of aggy belief. Aggy cult law #4: the world loves the 'sips and hates us because of the BOMC-- the 'sips are over-rated, and we are never given credit.
  18. Finally playing OU, aggy, and Arkansas again regularly but in an environment in which WE get to pay more for players than any of them does -- it's about time.
  19. Could be Saban said to throw the guy whom he helped save his career and get the Texas job under the bus re his alcoholism. Or could be that Saban leaned heavily on Golding to win at his job.
  20. Is this unintentional humor? Is it a running joke about which I'm ignorant?
  21. So you're saying Chuck Norris wears Arch pajamas?
  22. USC and Miami would be nice choices
  23. Ankle sprain in a boot months later does not add up. If he shredded his ankle and had to have the ligaments reconstructed, I wouldn't still have him in a boot. There is something rotten in Denmark.
  24. Schools in the state of Alabama have apparently won 183 of the last 120 championships.
  25. Why do you hate so hard on his value as a QB, then?
