He's built UVA to what it is in college baseball. He can retire a UVA legend. Not sure why he would jump ship to start over again at aggy knowing they'll always be second fiddle to big brother, especially now with Schloss at the helm, in a tougher baseball conference.

Surely he isn't that bored or stupid.

They're going to make him earn his millions. When everything went to shit and they were taking another drubbing, Earley looked resigned. I imagined him thinking, "This is humiliating and awful. Just make it to the end of the season and it will stop. And I will be a millionaire."

Nope. Aggie gonna make you go through it again. What a kick in the gut.

Those poor players. Running through brick walls for yet another season… 

I see part of their problem: going through doors is a lot less damaging to your body. They should do that instead.

Wow, the first few slides were me today at the massage therapist when she showed me her cool "sliding" cup.
It felt like a wet, rolling hickey all over my back. Back and forth.  Up and down. brrrrr.

"Cupping" is apparently more than just a bunch of stationary suction cups!

Here we have the strength of Aggie reasoning followed by....

image.thumb.png.b6736cd512bcd723398a021f874665dc.png

...the classic Aggie tale about every outgoing coach. The new guy will have them showing up to practice on time, fielding grounders, swinging two bats to warm up, and spitting without hitting their uniforms. A whole new deal!

This genius, Aggie-like, falls in line:

*No, you don't. Default to the traditional fictions about virtue. Last summer these guys were heroes and true Aggies because they stayed. Now? Not so much.

Marvelous:

Maybe he meant rescinded 

Even that doesn’t really make sense. They can’t just “take back” their contract with him. If they want to be rid of him they’ll have to buy him out like normal. Or are they expecting him to resign without his severance because he underperformed like some of those idiots suggested Jimbo was going to do out of the goodness of his heart and Aggy Honor.

Obvious that if they did move on from Earley that they'd be competing with Miss St for certain, and potentially Tech, Baylor, Stanford as well.

You'd think most (all?) would be a step below aggy. But I think word is out that Trev is a shitty AD and the Earley saga highlights how rudderless and emotional their decision making remains.

Oh, you can buy championships?  Shit, why didn't we think of that.  Are they for sale through Amazon?  Do you have to be a Prime member?

That's the vast majority of schools.  Very, very few make it to the top, let alone in multiple sports.  Thing is, they don't see where they fall in the historical hierarchy of college athletics and think money will solve all their problems.  They want so deeply to be relevant they have no perspective.  They talk about Texas' arrogance, but look back over the years how they talk down to Tech and the other schools.  

Then if/when they start to have some success, the school collectively freaks out and puts so much damn pressure on the teams that they invariably implode.  Rinse.  Wash.  Repeat.

Exactly and said perfectly. I was reading a thread about their baseball program and all they were saying was this and that coach shouldn’t be coaching one of the premier baseball programs in the country and I damn near spit out my tea. They literally believe they are the premier program in the state because of their money and fanbase and of course facilities. God forbid you actually look at the history of the program and see that they are no different from other baseball programs in state with lil winning postseason history. Fucking weirdos can’t just say we had a great year last year and we need to build on it with reasonable expectations for their shitty program. Hell nah, they’re like we’re the best because we went to finals last year. Texas uses runner up trophies as paper weights.

They're Michigan State that so desperately wants to be Ohio State....

You mean the Michigan State that has been to the football Playoff and is a historic basketball powerhouse? They're more of a rich man's Purdue.

MissST or VT is the best analogy for me, except that MissSU has an actual strong tradition of success in baseball, including an actual title in baseball, and except that VT actually played for a MNC in 1999 with Vick. 

Both of those schools are happy with who they are. Of course they have their own little brother complexes, but not the delusions of grandeur that TAMU does. 
 

The biggest problem with TAMU is that they just don’t accept who they are. A diploma mill land grant school with decent ag and engineering programs, and a mediocre athletic program. They think they’re Vandy academically, West Point militarily, and Bama athletically, but they’re MissSU in football and academics, and VT in corps/rotc.

Well said LMAO!

Why buy one, aggy? Softball was invented in 1887… just retroactively declare aggy as national champion for some years long ago that no one remembers, and put it on the stadium!  Instant championships!

Aggie Nut Squeeze on Make a GIF

We do this to share the team's pain. See, now it's not weird; it's special. Once you know the reason and the tradition, you will want to come to A&M where you can be a part of something bigger than yourself. A place with values and an honor code. Texas A&M University.

We stand up the whole game to show we're ready to go into the game if needed. It doesn't matter if we're playing an fcs team or the game is a runaway. We stand ready. They almost needed us against the Bowling Green Seniors. We were ready to go in when Appalachian State outscored us.

Also, the pinnacle of our lives is earning our Aggie ring! We then take our places in the Aggie Network. No other schools have these things. Here's our unofficial hand gesture that we use to inspire the team at every game!

200.webp

Once you get to know us, you'll love us! That is, except when you play us; then you will fear us on the field but love us as the classiest fans anywhere!
