Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread

[Bill Lumbergh 7168]

Some of these posts are absolute proof why you can never argue with aggy.

They just lost the top rated player in their class, and then lost the backup player they tampered to get in the portal, and several of the replies can be summed up as:

"Just wait, all of this will probably turn out better for us in the end. There's a high likelihood both of these guys don't live up to their ranking and we find some real studs in the portal later. All of you freaking out need to calm down and see that we're right where we want to be if you let this play out"

I almost want to admire their ignorance-fueled optimism, as it's just really something to observe.  Some of them simply can't ever bring themselves to acknowledge something bad has happened to a&m.  Jimbo is still the coach to get it done and they are right where they want to be recruiting wise.  We all just need to be patient and let things play out, and eventually we'll see the aggy master plan.

Doubled down? Surely we passed doubled down in the 90's. We're bound to be at whatever the "tuple" is for 100. 

Looked it up - "centuple"

You mean our "average" Freshman All American, Second Team All American, co-Big XII DPOY, 3rd round pick former LB?

That’s one angle, definitely. 

There’s also the 2022 All-Big 12 Football First Team LB selections. And even AP All American pick, too.

Best Lines:

Cobb isn’t SEC ready

York is criminally underrated

Sips paid Ant Hill to go to tu 

Arch isn’t that good and Ewers is a disaster 

Cook might be thinking of flipping to create a trio with Evan and Moose

Bijan is overrated and not good at all

 

They checked the delusion box every post. Never change Aggie!

You forgot one: Reggie McNeal is better than VY.

He wasn't a good NFL LB but to say he was a bad college LB is just moronic.  Was he DJ? No, but he was still really good for the Longhorns

One of those stupid fuckers made the comment that York, who is coming from a 3a high school, will play meaningful snaps so Cobb won't be missed and that led into Cobb not being an impactful transfer. L O L

"We have more resources than anyone!"

They don't have any grasp of the fact that the landscape has fundamentally shifted and they do not, in fact, have more resources than anyone. They no longer possess the brief competitive advantage of being able to moneywhip the market. Everyone else worth a shit is arming themselves to the teeth on the NIL front. Other staffs have added numerous analysts and scouts to be on top of the portal and more advanced high school recruiting. 

Meanwhile, Jimbo Fisher appears to be caught in the same exact trap that his fanbase is caught in. "Why aren't all these guys just taking the money?" Hmm. On top of that, and maybe time will disprove this, but right now ATM looks about as flat-footed in dealing with the portal as any program in the country besides Clemson. Given that Ritz Bitz is a simple idiot, adjusting to the newness of the environment and its pace of change is going to be a challenge not easily overcome. I'm enjoying this.

A thousand thanks to LHF and Texifornia. A few gems among the general entertainment:

 

We got a malaise going here! We need to get fired up and get our swagger back, boys! That's how you hit the portal hard.

Recruits will love it here as much as we do! Look what we have to sell! Traditions, facilities, SEC, playing time, and midnight yell make us the best place to be in America!

We're amazingly sexy! We can't let that primal appeal be diminished!

If the world would only let people see how amazing it is to be an Aggie, all would be Aggies except your gays and your Sully statue haters!

 

A threat to what? You were 5-7. You're usually 8-4. The state of Mississippi owns your sorry asses. What throne do you imagine yourselves sitting on? Worry about making yourselves a threat instead of a joke.

 

One rarely meets such a beautiful woman.

I've asked this a couple of times and still haven't gotten an answer -- probably because there isn't one -- but what is the supposed job we gave to Anthony Hill's dad to get him to flip to Texas?

[ClubWhatever 12082]

I think Dickey might have been the best pure football coach they had.  And they replaced him with Craig and then fired his ass so that Jimbo could say he was doing something.

It's the kind of super secret, high paying job that is extremely easy to confirm and prove beyond a doubt as true but also impossible to verify or provide evidence of.

There isn’t one. Posts that have asked that have been conveniently ignored. They never let the truth get in the way of their delusions.

That’s the beauty part: it’s a no-show “job” so there will never be any evidence that his place of work has changed. 

[Enchubben 5502]

What’s the Auburn/Freeze discussion coming from? Did an expected portal player or recruit commit there over aggy or something?

 

nevermind - I see on the other board that they’re on the outside looking in for Mitchell.

Yeah, that “job” has gone from rumor to established canonical fact faster than the non-existent Patton quote. 

[Pato del Muerto 52234]

It’s amazing that they see freeze for what he is/was, a good coach who has no morals and had the purse to be extra effective in recruiting. Somehow they see jimbo as something different. 
 

and they think freeze will be a threat because of his bags and whatnot at ole miss, still not realizing that much of that advantage has been leveled by nil. 
 

in short, they still think bags drive recruiting and that is informing their cfb worldview. Common clay and so forth.

It's almost like they had pages of pages bagging on Fisher as an amoral shitbag when he was at FSU, and the mods literally scrubbed their boards for negative posts about Fisher when he was hired. And all of a sudden Winston wasn't a thieving rapist. Go figure.

Also, it’s hilarious that Aggy venerates Achane while insisting that Bijan is overrated… If anything, Bijan is underrated — he’s a Heisman caliber back that was limited by a young OL.

Most of their fans are always going to invent a version of reality that favors them (except obviously for the few times it really does favor them in which case they then irrationally project that only being more so forever into the future). That is their main tradition. I can never determine if they do this because they feel like that is what A&M fans should do but don't take it seriously or if they are brainwashed into really thinking that it is always advantage: aggy.

Let's be fair to Jimbo here. He's not adjusting to shit.

He has taken his tiny boots off and is too busy counting all his millions on his fingers and toes to be worried about adjusting to NIL. He's more worried about buying a new Louis Vuitton ass scratcher for Lil' Vanilla Fish than NIL or the portal.
