There’s a strange comfort in knowing that despite certain periods where it appears aggy might be about to grasp the reality of their current situation, they inevitably will revert back to propaganda and unrealistic expectations.

For a university that obsesses about traditions, it is unquestionably their strongest one.

Bringing back your entire offensive line plus two more former starters is the kind of stuff that contenders are built on.

How many point did the aggie offense (with this line) score against Texas?

I love this guy. I think he's the one who did a stealth bicycle recon of the 40 Acres last season to report on our dispositions and strategies.

If they beat Auburn, they go to a better bowl game that they may have won to get to 10 wins just like 2020!!!! USC was murder in that bowl game.

You and I had the same thought. This is a new development in their behavior. They're glomming onto the notion that bowl games have become meaningless, therefore, they're going to stop counting them (when they lose, only). This phenomenon is the other bookend on the spectrum of made up records to fit whatever narrative they need in order to feel better about their outlook. On one hand, ATM is undefeated in games they never actually played, and on the other hand, they get to actively remove whatever losses they actually incur when they can justify those outcomes as "meaningless".

Yet they love to talk about their Orange Bowl win against 4 loss UNC that was sitting out their two NFL running backs and best WR.  That season was such a joke yet Liucci loves to cite it as evidence that they were so close and were on the precipice of being elite.

Their best win was at home by three points against a 4 loss Florida team that the Big 12 second place team beat by 35.  They beat a garbage 0-9 Vanderbilt team at home by 5 points.  They played one good team, Alabama, who beat the everyloving shit out of them.  But per Liucci that was a top 4 A&M team as good as any of the last two Texas teams that lost close games in the semifinals.

If ever a bowl game was meaningless, it was the 2020 covid Orange Bowl where UNC's offense opted out of the game while A&M played at full strength.

ESPN released their FPI ratings;  Texas was #1, our Agroid brethren came in at #11.

In the "Which team is FPI overvaluing?" section, the first two were A&M and Texas.

Here are the write-ups for the two teams ... the tone of the two is - ahem - a little different 😂  😂  😂.

 

 TEXAS

Every year I over-rate the Aggies. And they then proceed to underachieve. But I look at their roster and it’s really not that great. They do have a better head coach than in the past, but the rest of the staff is questionable. So if I’m thinking the ceiling is 8-4, then history would suggest 7-5 or 6-6, and it’s only that good because of such a weak schedule.

The usual Surly routine is wondering how they get to a winning record, so they disappoint in that regard as well. 

Here's an unprejudiced question: what indicates Elko is a better coach than in the past? Was there a game last year when he distinguished himself as a head coach? Their close loss to Notre Dame is, I suppose, the best place to look. He had a good season for Duke, but, so far, I don't see anything special about Elko apart from his snappy on-the-field wardrobe.

To me, at best, he's unproven. Their collapse at the end of last season was nightmarish (for them). Where are the good signs? It's quite possible that I've missed them as I'm nothing of a football savant.

I don't think Elko has a great roster to work with honestly.  It's the Jimmys and the Joes, not the Xs and the Os.

When they talk about Elko being something other than possibly above average, it’s usually based on the superficial review of his record for two years at Duke. If folks dug deeper on that performance, they’d see that Duke beat like one team with a winning record each season. 

His performance last season was dogshit. They started out ranked and climbed over time against a bunch of dogshit opponents and then fell apart and finished unranked. The analytics supported mediocre results. They underperformed expectations.

Their roster this year is worse. No one besides our board is giving it a critical review. The national idiots just do what they always do - talk about ATM realistically directly after the season and then let Liucci and the rest of the ATM clowns hype the program into preseason rankings.

Yep. York is getting pre-season AA hype to go along with 1st round NFL mocks. It's incredible how over-rated he is, going to be interesting to see it play out without the DL protection he had his 1st two seasons.

First, let me say that the Aggies fucking suck. Because their culture and approach to football sucks. Even when they recruit well, that culture infects the players and they get progressively worse the longer they're part of the program. 5-star recruits and good coaches will never view the school as anything more than a paycheck. They are country rubes who will happily buy snakeoil if it's pitched to them the right way. And the right way is anything that feeds their baseless sense of superiority. It's a bone-deep problem that will never really be fixed, only temporarily ameliorated. 

Second, if I can /unjerk and take of my burt-orange-colored glasses, I think Elko is a good fit for their program. He is not a great head coach - everyone is wildly overrating his two seasons at Duke, which can largely be explained by Riley Leonard, weak competition, and low expectations for the program. He's not Snyder at KSU or even Fitzgerald at Northwestern. He's an average coach who managed to get a basketball school to play competent football. That's a commendable feat, but not an indicator of high quality or long term success. He is a good defensive mind and a decent recruiter. Despite his personal slovenliness* he has always struck me as more or less having his act together. I don't think he's going to cause some massive scandal for their program, nor do I think he is going to piss off too many people in the AD. So, altogether, I rate him as a fine coach. Competent enough on the field and not a complete dumpsterfire of a human. 

But I think the best thing Elko can do for A&M is raise the floor and keep the program "respectable" until their financial woes lighten up. And I think Elko knows that to, and you see it in his recruiting. He's looking for FCS and G5 players who will value A&M as an opportunity. The blue chip prospects will always treat A&M like everyone else does - as a paycheck. A place where they're willing to play if A&M pays them enough. But those players never give a shit. They'll never buy in or play hard.** Elko needs to bring in enough "hungry" players from the lower level who will buy into the Aggie bullshit because it's the best shot those players will ever have. Plus, those players are all A&M can afford at the moment. Once Elko has enough of those guys in the program, he can (potentially) end up with a team who at least cares about winning. They won't be talented enough to win championships, but they might be good enough to catch a great team napping and sneak their way into some better than average seasons. But those will be few and far between.  I think 8-4 seasons are exactly what they'll keep getting under Elko and I think that's best he'll ever be able to do. He's an 8-4 type of coach and they're spiritually an 8-4 type of school, so it should be a good fit. 

But that's the trap that Aggies can't see. If they get the talent needed to win championships, they'll end up with a team full of individuals that are only there for the money. To get a team of players who work together and actually care about winning, they've got to bring in a lot of OKGs*** who don't have the talent to play anywhere else but are willing to work hard and develop. In other words, A&M is a middle-tier development program. But if that's the case, why doesn't A&M perform as well as schools like Oklahoma State, Wisconsin, Kentucky, ISU, etc.? A&M has more money than them, they should be better. The reason is that A&M refuses to accept that it's a middle-tier development program. Schools like Oklahoma State know who they are and they play to those strengths. Elko is a perfect coach for that kind of program. But he won't work out at A&M because they can't let go of the fantasy that they're a top tier program. They won't actually commit to being a development program which is what they need to do in order for Elko to actually succeed. 

Why is that an immutable quality at A&M? See my first point. The fans and boosters are too easily duped. As soon as they achieve any level of success, they start to believe that success should be the norm and open the door to coaches like Jimbo and players like Evan Stewart, who are happy to part these proverbial fools from their money. Even if they end up with an RC Slocum, eventually they'll convince themselves that they deserve better and fire his ass for another snakeoil salesman. It's the same thing that happens when some asshole wins the lottery - the money is just fucking gone within a couple of years.**** Because the reasons why he's an asshole didn't suddenly disappear just because a ton of money suddenly fell in his lap. A&M can have all the goddamn money in the world, it won't stop them from being A&M and it won't fix their problems as a program. I almost feel bad for Elko. It's a sisyphean task ahead of him and he does not have the BMI or the blood pressure for that kind of stress. He'll get them to perform at a reasonable level in light of their inherent limitations, and they'll hate him for it.

To me elko presents himself as a smart human who capably analyzes things, or at least attempts to. That by itself is enough of a culture clash to wear thin in CS, and the kind of thing that works at a place like Duke.  They need the Jackie/RC/Jimbo type communicator to be happy- unless they are winning at a very high level which they won’t be.

His comments at the event he spoke at show that the cult hive mind has already gotten to him. It’s also a perfect example of how the national media misses the very important sub text when talking about A&M.  Elko said they are going to be a premier national football program and will have 12 draft picks. So he has set the bar at exactly where Texas is, and it’s clear that they’re incapable of assessing themselves and can only judge progress and success by looking at others.

WTF?

When you haven't won a national title in 85 fucking years, who talks like that?

That's A&M's problem in a nutshell. They just believe they're entitled to be the very best of the very best, absent any evidence that they're even above average.

And they call us arrogant? We may have underachieved relative to our potential a fair amount, but at least we have achieved mightily at times in living memory.

And they call us arrogant? We may have underachieved relative to our potential a fair amount, but at least we have achieved mightily at times in living memory.

There's not a nutshell big enough to fit Elko.

Just to put this fully in perspective, opponents' records:

Vandy 0-9

Bama 13-0 (it was 35-14 at half)

Florida 8-4

Miss State 4-7

Arkansas 3-7

South Carolina 2-8

LSU 5-5

Auburn 6-5

Tennessee 3-7

UNC 8-4

But We had the easiest sec schedule ever this past season according to them. 

To be fair, that's what every sec schedule would look like if the league didn't prop itself up with 3-4 FCS and Sunbelt cupcakes per team.

Every year I over-rate the Aggies. And they then proceed to underachieve. But I look at their roster and it’s really not that great. They do have a better head coach than in the past, but the rest of the staff is questionable. So if I’m thinking the ceiling is 8-4, then history would suggest 7-5 or 6-6, and it’s only that good because of such a weak schedule. 

The aggy “magical” 10 win-Johnny season included two FCS wins.  Somehow that fact gets overlooked as time has passed, but I’m here to remind aggy.

Hook’em!!!

Big 12-0 keeps poking the nest, but so far nothing other than a single illogical reference to the BDF has flown out.

Nothing like catching 3 headed fish out of a power plant cooling pond to make you want to go to school there
