Jimbo 2019: The Only Tail Getting Busted is Candi's

aggy fans are so convinced that Texas is cheating because of how their own 9.95ers act.  Half of the time they won't even mention Texas is an option until the recruit is obviously about to commit to Texas.  For everyone else Texas is a distant second to aggy until the recruit surprisingly  (for them) picks Texas.  When their fans are constantly fed false information about how Texas is not even an option for a recruit it probably does feel like Texas is cheating when said recruit chooses Texas.

So, aggy is in denial of the Horns being #1 in many recruits minds.  I'd never have dreamed this scenario.  Stupid aggy.

arrogant aggy is by far the best aggy. I especially love when they threaten to fight us, or say we are coming off .500 season after .500 season so we gotta be cheatin'! They say this as one of the more heavily penalized teams in college football with a LIFETIME winning percentage around .500 in conference play. And their lifetime bowl record is even worse than that. And I challenge any of you to find a fan base that openly begs to cheat more than aggy. 

But yeah, Jimbo's "sharts" are pretty scary. We will see how much sharting Jimbo does when they play Clemson (stupid 'sip...Jimbo knows Clemson, he played them last year...Jimbo's got this one in the bag....shart).

This kind of dishonesty, delusion and hatred is what happens after 80 years of failure.  Sad really.  What a toxic group of idiots.

Yet every single day, they go to take a piss, unzip their pants, and they just can't believe that yet again, they pull out a Tic Tac. That micropenis is every bit as small as it ever was, and on a cold day, they have to use tweezers to find it.

Via Tarp - 

A&M's football revenues middle of the road in the SEC  (A&M ranked eighth in the SEC in football revenues ) 

 

The end of the Kevin Sumlin era at Texas A&M didn’t just result in declining wins on the football and unrealized expectations. It also meant that fans and others tuned out the Aggies to the extent that it hit the athletic department where it really hurts…the pocketbook.

The U.S. Department of Education recently posted figures on football revenue for the nation’s athletic departments for the 2016-2017 fiscal year (July 2016 to June 2017). Although Texas A&M is considered to be one of the richest athletic departments in the country (and it is), the stagnation of the football program under Sumlin resulted in declining revenues and the Aggies didn’t compare so well to their SEC brethren.

A&M ranked eighth in the SEC in football revenues in 2016-17 at $70.4 million which was a 4% decrease from 2015-16. While it’s a measure of the financial strength of the SEC that their revenues would have placed the Aggies in the top five schools in the Big Ten, it’s still a reminder of just how tough the SEC is in all aspects of competition (both on and off the field) thanks to its lucrative sources of revenue such as its television contracts, the SEC Network (an example of how to do a network right unlike the Pac 12), and bowl tie ins (which put the conference front and center on New Year’s Day).

In fact, the Aggies ranked behind Arkansas, LSU, Auburn, and Alabama in the SEC West in revenues despite having a renovated Kyle Field as perhaps the country’s best on campus revenue generator. While it should come as no surprise that Alabama topped the $100 million mark in revenues, the fact that the Aggies trailed even Arkansas ($71.2 million) is something of a surprise.

It’s not like A&M didn’t spend anything on the sport either. Although the Tide spent over $62 million on football and that makes A&M’s $31 million appear lacking…A&M’s total is the third highest figure in the SEC West. 


But here’s something else to think about: football is the cash cow which sustains an athletic department. Auburn, LSU, and Alabama all topped $100 million in total revenues for their men’s teams while the Aggies lagged behind at $84 million. The disparity in athletic department revenues can be traced almost entirely to the disparity in football revenues.

Given the fact that Sumlin was considered a dead man walking even before A&M athletic director Scott Woodward indicated in May 2017 that Sumlin had to do better or else, the lack of excitement towards football had a negative impact not just on that sport’s revenues but those of the department as a whole. With Jimbo Fisher at the helm and more excitement than what we’ve seen in recent years, the Aggies’ revenues should start to climb once again.

"the stagnation of the football program under Sumlin"

 

This is a grossly misleading statement.  It infers that the natural order of things is aggy football doing well when in fact a&m is a .500 middle of the road team historically no matter what conference they're in.  This is who they are, not a backslide.  They won a single time vs Bama.  That's what they accomplished under Sumlin.  That's it, that's the list.

This data isn't even from Sumlin's last year, it is from his next to last year -- a full season before their AD called him out. Their numbers for this past season were probably even worse.

and it was more that McCarron gave that game away late in the 4Q, just like top 5 Auburn did 2 years later.

Sumlin was the best coach they ever had. Better than Jackie, better than RrrCee. Better than whoever the fuck it was when Hitler invaded Poland.

This is probably true.  He has a top 5 finish.  The last time they finished that high was 1956.

When have facts ever mattered to aggy?

No mention of Texas revenue, I’ll take that to mean we were higher as well. 

Also, 8th is the top spot of the lower half!

Keep in mind we were utter dogshit in 2015 and remained utter dogshit in 2016.  Now having said that, I'm sure you'll be shocked to hear this but Texas had a revenue of $141.2 million, over double aggy's $70.4 million.  But wait, that's not even the biggest disparity.  

aggy's profit for 2016 was a paltry $37.3 million, while UT's was $97.9 million, almost triple that of aggy.  

So yes, in a down time for our program we completely and utterly wiped the floor with them in revenue and, more importantly, profit.  On a national scale, aggy was 17th in revenue and 18th in profit, while UT was healthily first in both, pacing fake UT, who finished second, by $30 mil in revenue and $20 mil in profit. 

It's such a mystery why aggy only touts conference superiority instead of merits of individual schools.

A couple other interesitng notes, Bama was 3rd in revenue at $108 mil, but only made a profit of $45 mil, which shows how much fucking money they spend on football.  

Also, somehow USC was all the way down the list at 23, with $59.8 mil in revenue and $29 mil in profit, barely beating out TCU.

That seems like it must be an accounting trick - they have a monster stadium that they regularly fill and you can't throw a rock in California without hitting a guy with SC merchandise on.

Definitely seemed odd to me. Although, I will say, Southern Californians and Californians in general don't give much of a shit about football compared to Texas or the South. Also, USC is private so who knows. Same goes for TCU's numbers.

Depends if you are factoring in the cheating years. On pure record alone. RC beats Sumlin

Slocum has 72% win % over 14 years. 

Sumlin has 67% win % over 5 years. 

of course Sumlin won 60% of his bowl games

Slocum won a measley 21%

Technically speaking, Tim DeRuyter is by far their most successful coach. 

Magically, and I don't understand how it happened, but DeRuyter was a great DC for them. They liked him when he was there, and now they talk shit about the guy like he's Gary Darnell. It's baffling.

Slocum won a ton of games early in his career at a time when the SWC was awful.  Once the Big 12 formed, he was exposed.

Uhh..not quite on the "regularly fill" part. Iirc..last year when the Horns came to town was the first sellout since some game in 2014 or so? I remember someone talking about that here. I do remeber a top 10 Stanford came to LA and played a top 10 USC last year and even that wasn't a sellout..

That win over bama was like having only one viagra for a lifetime.....and Sumlin used it on bama.   Now, aggy is limp again.  Does Jimbo use his little blue pill on LSU?  I think so.

I'm not sure if you've followed the ongoing saga of Jimbo & Candi: A Love of Strangers, but Jimbo has either never had any viagra in his possession, ever, or it doesn't work on him and his little hobbit organ.

They're bound to beat LSU at some point, right?  Once it happens, they'll convince themselves they'll never lose another game to anyone again, the euphoria will be so great.
