This past athletic year had to be the most demoralizing for them in 15 years. Until they fled to the SEC, they had to be reminded every year that we were better than them. Maybe they would get up in one sport for a little while, but never for very long and never in all three. But when they moved to the SEC they never had to have the lie laid bare. They could keep telling themselves, year in and year out, "We're better than the sips. They play in the BDF. Even though we're meh in the SEC, we'd be dominating them and that conference." Even when our move to the SEC was announced, they could tell themselves how great it would be to watch us get pantsed in their superior conference. The younger part of their fanbase that doesn't remember them in the Big 12 probably even believed it, too. 

So you get what we had here last year - which is the way Aggie wants it. Well, he gets it.

So now you understand why they fired Jimbo. 
 

They were so scared Jimbo wouldn’t beat us, that they hired a new coach. If Sark had been on a 8-5 trajectory again in 2023 I have 0 doubts they would have stayed Jimbo. As usual they panicked. 
1. New coach beats evil sips, great move.

2. New coach gets beat by evil sips, needs time to clear crap roster provided by old coach. 
 

Win, win for ags . Just like most American companies, only today’s stock market means any thing.

Yep. The new coach will root out all the drug users and trash the old guy left. We all heard the stories. Coach New Guy will get the most out of what we have and bring in his guys. We'll see a big difference next year!

Well, it's just the first year for Coach New Guy. Coach Ebil Toxic Longhorn had a worse record his first year at toxic university. I think I guys played harder for Coach New Guy. It takes three years to install your program and get your guys. Can't wai for next season.

Injuries, refs, t.u. turning everybody against us. I still back Coach Sorta New Guy. Grow a pair and get behind the team.

Fucking Coach Old Guy destroyed this program. Three years and same underperformance. Fire him! He shows no emotion. Halftime adjustments!  hurd derr!

Well, Coach New guy seems to have that swagger about him. Reveille licked his hand. He'll root out all the bad apples....

You forgot one.

Coach New Guy always gets A&M.

My cycle was general not specific.

ETA: I was around when they replaced Gene Stallings with Emory Bellard. All of my Aggie friends were were talking about Bellard cleaning up the awful mess of drug use and laziness on the team. There was no Information Highway yet, so you couldn't follow the rest very closely. Over the years (gulp, decades. Yikes!) the rest has been observable with their coaching changes. TexAgs has only made it more evident.

Tradition.

I'm not sure they even would have taken the risk on Sark.      The BMA and AD dept aka texags would have had to be on the same page, maybe the would have been.    Now they act like hiring Sark was an obvious no brainer.    

Pros:   He was at Alabama so gets SEC.    Good offensive mind

Cons:   7 win steve, personal issue/USC flame out.   Most success has been as coordinator.

I'm still honestly surprised we went and got Sark

Same.  I don't think the message boards were particularly happy about it.

Sark would have been back on the sauce in six months, tops, if he'd been hired by aggy.

For sure, but luckily our AD isn't run by the monkeys in the zoo.    Theirs is.

The literal monkey resides with UT's special teams coach.

Sark was recommended by Saban, that was the surprise.

Saban was everyone's first choice, and we did what the wise do: having approached the Best and been turned down, we asked him who's the Next Best, and he told us to get Steve... and we did. 

So far, so good.

Timing was so good as well. He was a reclamation project. He fucked up big time at his previous head coaching stops and wanted redemption. He was clearly moving in the right direction at Bama. I'm glad our coaching search saw the drive and determination, understood how his past played an indelible role in that, and siezed the moment. Always good to hire someone who is both talented and hellbent on proving the world wrong.

New coach gets us. We claimed old coach gets us, until we decided he didn't get us.  

Now we know old coach NEVER got us. Ever!

Graham will be along soon to set them straight. In his rankings, which have miraculously reappeared after disappearing following the aggy game last year, he as Texas 7th in the conference. Aggy is 3.
