Bill Byrne did not reach out to Liucci to ask for his thoughts on whether he should fire/retain either Fran or Sherman. Did angry TexAgs posters possibly help influence Byrne's decision, sure. But that's no different than at most any other big football program. But I'd be willing to believe that no other college fansite is more directly/officially involved with that particular school than TexAgs. Bjork can probably call Liucci and help dictate whether something is censored on TA. If you say so. Bowen Loftin couldn’t get enough TA attention. He did everything they wanted and sought out their approval. TA has been an integral part of their communication, recruiting, and decision-making for a long time. They’re part of the university. In contrast, UT hates this site and it’s posters. No matter how relevant the news or opinions here, they want nothing to do with us. Edited November 13, 20232 yr by Tex Pete

November 13, 20232 yr I hadn't thought of Dykes. He knows how to get to the championship game. He got TCU to within one victory of a national championship! Think what he could do with our unending supply of money, facilitiesfacilitiesfacilities, and the Aggie Network! He beat tu twice when he was at Cal! Actually, I could see it.
November 13, 20232 yr I've lived my whole life in Texas and have never stepped foot in College Station or Brazos County for that matter. I've been to Rockdale though.

Clemson outplayed Duke for the majority of that game, final score be damned. Clemson was going in to take the lead two different times in the third quarter but fumbled at the goal line both times. One was nearly returned for a TD and led to a short TD drive. Duke's last TD was another short field set up by a Klubnik INT. 1 hour ago, TrashMaster G said: aggies don't lie, cheat or steal.

Private institution, so the actual number isn't confirmable unless somebody here knows somebody there

Also, it's a fake military school with mostly dudes and no black population. Why would an elite player go there other than a bag of NIL money?

Dykes has some aggy traits for sure ..... I mean his Dad was coach at Sand aggy, so he can relate to the culture in Collie Station. He had to recruit some of the same area we all do with his time at Louisiana Tech, SMU and TCU. I still think last years TCU success was a series of perfect events that helped get them there. I doubt it occurs again for a very long time.
November 13, 20232 yr 44 minutes ago, BB65 said: Why would anyone take the aggy job for less of a contract than Jimbo's? Starting the year, aggy was already behind GA, Bama, Tenn, Ole Miss and LSU. As this season played out in reality they are also behind OU and Texas which joins the SEC next year. The new coach has to recruit and coach his ass off to attempt to gain ground on the seven teams ahead of them. Aggy has set the precedent of what they are willing to pay a coach with a guaranteed contract and no buy out. I ask again why would anyone take the aggy job for less of a contract than Jimbo's? This is especially true for Kiffin. For all they shit he’s talked about Jimbo, there’s no way he would go there for less money than Jimbo got.
November 13, 20232 yr Aggy tossing out Dan Campbell is aggy just tossing his name out to come across as a blue blood. Campbell would never even consider going to aggy.
November 13, 20232 yr How does John Sharpe and Bjork still have jobs today? You'd think the head of the aggy BOR would've called Sharpe yesterday and said it's time for you to think about seriously retiring .
November 13, 20232 yr Have we done the thing where we name really really expensive things that are still less than the buyout Jimbo is getting? Ex. Jameis Winston’s career (NFL) earnings

November 13, 20232 yr A&M is a weird job with an institutional culture that is not ideal for an outsider. To be successful, they should hire a red ass, proud Aggie. Lean into the male cheerleaders and stupid shit. Bring back the Wrecking Crew moniker and working class attitude on the field. Hopefully they fuck it up though.

Hot take here but now that SMU is in a real conference, they might be better as well. Boosters will money whip whatever you need and you get to live in HP and not CS. Expectations are also a million percent more reasonable.
November 13, 20232 yr There isn't a chance in hell Ryan Day would even take the call from aggy. Hilarious. Unlike the clueless national media, the coaching world understands how fucking weird aggy is and what a shithole College Station is, which is why they have to dramatically overpay for coaches.

November 13, 20232 yr I just don't see Traylor. He won't bring any portal players or major recruits with him and it will take 2-3 years at least for him to fix all the problems and get that thing turned around. So yeah, it'll probably be Traylor.
November 13, 20232 yr I don't have the software or editing skills to do it, but someone who does should take this commercial and replace all of the crowd shots with clips of the torch and pitchfork mob from "Frankenstein."
