Yeah...which play.  

That's kind of like the loochador when he claims that if only aggy hadn't sucked on play x they would have had the momentum and confidence to also not suck on plays a, b, c, y, and z.

Trying to figure out how a team makes up a 10 point deficit in one play.

if said play was a touchdown, then if opposing team instead gets a pick 6 that is a 14-point swing.  the aggies aren't stupid.

It has been nearly 4 years since Horns with Heart and the Pancake factory. Hell Banks and Williams are in the NFL already...and they STILL don't understand that every single thing that we did was completely, utterly and entirely legal and above board by the letter of the law and cleared by Texas compliance, NCAA compliance...oh and the mother fucking IRS. It truly is astounding that they think we were acting shady while they were coming off the biggest bag dropping recruiting cycle of all time

Stoopid Sip!  If Arch had fumbled on his TD run for a scoop and score, well one play Ags win with 4 points to spare.

they were much closer….. like 1 play from being fucking shutout…coulda easily been 24-0.

It really should have been 31-0. We bogged down in the red zone way too often in that game.

In fairness... that's a pretty low bar right? Since the Football team has won 4, 2, 4 and 5 (cue moronic Kyle Field SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! Chant)  SEC games in the last 4 seasons...

Bam! Hunting. Work it, Olin!

* At the end of the year, LSU was ranked second!

image.png.1737a5a01e1826955866e1a0d9d6ebd9.png

And it was still an upset victory for 10th ranked A&M!

Standby for gangsta reversal of mood. Cue Ice Cold Olin:

image.png.86f0b2af02a2b525db6c2ec078779eca.png

Day-yum. Truth bomb and rhyme. You gotta give me something, bro. This actually reads like writing. Save me, Olin!

image.png.f2d45a46ddb0ed62887551c68a2fc58a.pngRoma asks for a miracle. Olin gives him the F B I  The Elk.

Sooo, Elko displays his thorough knowledge of A&M football history. They were in a totally new position. Starting fast, flying high, and, then, shockingly, the flaming spiral to 8-4. Nobody saw it coming because the dear old Texas Aggies from Texas had never been there before.

Didn't handle well or the "right way?" Astounding the world, the Aggies emerged from their heroic victory over the Bowling Green Seniors primed for greatness, and... Like Alanis says, you learn.

You "learn" that you play football games to finish a season. Keen insight. Next year, we learn that winning some of them might be important, too. It's a steep learning curve in College Station. Coming up on 90 years.

Hunted? Everybody saw A&M as their Super Bowl. Of course.

I guess the learn thing works for Elko. He doesn't know how to win a natty like Jimbo does.

Olin's got his hooks in this week's theme:

Bam!

Sick burn, Olin.

image.png.f9a368a0dc6bdecb6ef5b346e3942617.pngtee hee hee, sippie.

 

Time to pump Reed:

image.png.0f7142714854d322ca12c6a99da8b582.png

That LSU victory maybe plays just a little bit too heavily in assessing last year's team, my friend.

Why do this to yourself, Olin? Suggesting Reed is Lagwayesque or ever superlagwayesque? Really?

Lagway's last five games reg season (didn't play us)

image.thumb.png.dbac889ed4889af4ecb9e58a44770932.png  Winning

Reed's

image.png.20a80b01dec8c3f44b8ee48a0c33c365.png

Losing

Just stop. Nobody wants to trade Lagway for Reed. 

I skip some of the usual babble to get to this week's Elko Mysterious Sentences and, of course, Olin's big finish:

image.png.5c6cf23ec13c69f63ffe6d1f976bf659.png

1 Ad nauseum is not a good thing, you know that don't you?

2 What team? What are you talking about?

3 Have it tatooed on your wrist so you can roll up the long sleeve of your baby nightshirt and see American football.

4 There it is! The annual chip of victory! And it's a strong chip! It's a gym rat chip!

Olin brings another one into port.

Aggies starting 6-1. - sweet!

His $76M payout, if my bev-nap math is not too bad, weighs most of a ton in 100-dollar bills

 

edit 0s were way off -- $100M literally weighs a metric ton

Check. I understand that he's learned how to fly over the summer. Greatest recruit since Bear Bryant nearly killed his team in Junction.

Modeling agency standard?

Check. And, correct, William, that's not what it was. But what a dreamy thought as you drift off to sleep in the manly man cave mom let you set up in the basement.

Okay, I'm giving up the question-check thing. It's exhausting.

Nobody manages a single catch against the likes of Florida or Bowling Fucking Green (have you heard about how veteran the team was?). The one against Bowling Green was terrific! He punked NMSU. Lars, I like to call him Lars, showed up. Nobody can blame him for not taking over the SEC (EEEEK!) night games that followed.

image.png.9ca585b34cf7b3c344efdaa8315d68de.png

SEC night games. 'Nuff said. Had Collin Klein called the touchdown play, the Fightin' Texas Aggies from Texas lay waste to tu.

William on blocking. First, the goal:

image.png.75bb4e3954bb38586ef7f14514f805e5.png

Yes. Good blocking. Great point. Lars should strive for that.

image.png.d3f9c1412a37968a40921bbc1c3a9825.png

Never mind, Lars. You can't do it. They don't exist. May as well try to be a unicorn or conference champion. Crazy talk. 

 

And now, William's stream of consciousness excercise. 

image.png.e1d564630e9936ce8b888c649df95844.png

1 Poor Micah. The girls say he's got the b.o. and a hairy back. Ewwwww!

2 We all wish we could speak to Cole Cubelic. Not with him. He's boring. Somehow that connects to "them" bringing in Riley for Auburn. Either Cubelic or Riley were mauling people. Cubelic actually had to listen to all this.

3 Add an improved Lars! Can you imagine? Lars out their mauling people with Cubelic or Riley in the Auburn game? And Lars would be improved had that happened!

4 What about the football he played against Florida, Bowling Green, and NMSU, William? What about the drops and missed blocks in the terrifying gloom of an SEC night game? Huh? He was evidently a good enough blocker for that.

 

image.png.9212da009aba8749c39685fcc0d534e9.png

Maybe you can call somebody who works at a fan site that specializes in this sort of thing.

 

image.png.08d0fe3f04217c793c73ab6aeb806817.png

1 Oddly, he doesn't mention how it went. Probably game-winning.

2 I don't know who "they" are, but I'd be surprised to hear (or see, in William's case) anyone say that. "Hey, we are going to throw some jump balls to this dude," remarked Coach Spicolli.

I believe William to be correct about Lars and Niblack being problematic.

If I recall correctly, a lot of Florida’s defense was hurt and not playing against ags.

Andrea Adelson: Ex-FSU coach Jimbo Fisher joins ACC Network as weekly analyst

Quote

Jimbo Fisher is joining the ACC Network as a college football analyst, the network announced Tuesday. Fisher, who led Florida State to the 2013 national title, will appear weekly on the "ACC Huddle" on Saturdays. During his time at Florida State, Fisher went 83-23, winning three straight ACC championships from 2012-14. He left the Seminoles in 2017 to take the Texas A&M job.

At the time, his 10-year, $75 million contract with Texas A&M was the richest in college football history. Fisher was fired in November 2023 in his sixth season with the Aggies after going 45-25, receiving a record $76 million buyout. He has been out of coaching since then. "I'm looking forward to joining ACC Network and the Huddle team this season," Fisher said in a statement.

"I've always had tremendous respect for this conference, and I'm looking forward to breaking down the action each week with such a talented group." The "ACC Huddle" will travel to the marquee ACC football game each weekend this season and will air Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon. Week 1 of "ACC Huddle" will be at Clemson, which hosts LSU on Aug. 30.

It's not that dumb of a question.  Most contracts have offset language of some kind.  Fisher's did not.

Many coaching contracts are written such that the buyout is offset by whatever amount the former coach earns doing another job.

But not aggie contracts, no sir.  They are 100% guar-an-teed!

Offset language usually incorporates the notion of like-for-like. Get another coaching job? Offset. Go become a chef? No offset. I'm guessing standard coaching offset language would not account for the guy getting work in the media.

Might be true, but as I vaguely recall Mackovic's offset language included media gigs.  He got paid some paltry sum from ESPN for a hot minute, and we got to pay him slightly less.

Did we deal with this scenario with Mack, or did he sit on his ass until any buyout was paid in full, then went to espn?  

That would track.
