You're hard-on for Junior seems to be really obsessive and bizarre


Because I think he sucks? Sorry to hurt your feelings, walton.

And keep the hard-on talk to yourself, you f'ing weirdo.

I'm sorry. I didn't know this was a trial.

The Musers discussion went exactly how I thought it would go. It's not really a true buyout other than the 20% and then annual payments for the remainder over the life of the contract.

I wouldn't have expected them have listened to Bjork's press conference and no media person is writing the actual details of how Jimbo will get his money. 80% is now increased operating expense for 8 seasons which we expect to cover with increased revenue.

I also knew they would dismiss any national candidates (and they may be correct) and would focus on a feel good regional name above everyone else.

I also knew unreal expectations would be brought up by two guys that haven't been to an Aggie game in over a decade and believe TCU is as good a football scene as it gets.

It's what they know and what they went back to. It's like listening to buddies that are NFL guys talk to you about college football.

They just don't know the true details of college football and A&M specifically.

Curious what Bob thinks since he was there and roaming the sidelines.

No, that's not it. Lots of people on here think he sucks but don't react like you do. I think its more because you get triggered just seeing "Junior" that you launch into some weird insult laden attack making sure everyone knows you think he's effeminate or a eunuch, etc. So yes, obsessive and bizarre

During morning drive, I heard Miller say "unreal expectations" regarding the Texas Aggie faithful.

I yelled "b.s." in the auto when he said that around 9:15 this morning.

Nearly 25 years since our last conf. championship.

Junes, Get your head out, do your homework.

I am sure he would have the same to say about zero U if they had such a championship drought... not.

It is easy to be on the bandwagon when your team relatively recently wins and goes to championship play-offs, right, Junes?

Y'all mad at Junes for stating facts. Be mad at the A&M athletic department.

Uhhh, no. Most are mad about Craig's condescending suggestion that A&M should not have the expectation of winning a national championship. What a total loser mindset.

Solid discussion by The Hardline. Curious what Corby and Davie's take would be if Bob wasn't there with the threat to hammer them with facts.

Junior's take this morning, other than repeating 'havent won since 1939....again' is that Jimbo should make A&M look bad by saying, 'Couldnt this money have gone towards something good? CFB has gotten insane'

Ummm, he's the one taking all the money. Saying that doesnt make him 'a hero'...it would make him look like the biggest tone deaf sob alive.

What a dumb comment by Junior...and why is he opining on ways to make A&M look bad?

AgGrad99
How long do you want to ignore this user?

And, again...he says it's insane that we pay that money, given that we haven't won since 1939. What sense does that make??? Isn't that exactly why we have to spend the money? We're trying to change things for our program. Such a dumb, oft-repeated opinion. Sounds like the opinion of someone who didnt compete in sports growing up. Interesting that he celebrates the Rangers, but doesnt fault them for doing what they needed to do to break through.

He also keeps commenting that the payout comes from boosters, which our AD has said repeatedly it's not. If you're going to discuss us, and the situation, maybe read the press release at least?

He said all the Aggies 'on the message boards' want Dan Campbell, and we're dreaming at that possibility. Umm, it's made fun of every time it's suggested on here, for obvious reasons.

They also trumpeted Traylor (again), Gary Patterson, Dan Quinn, Sonny Dykes and Kliff Kingsbury.

I get dumber, listening to them discuss us.

I'm actually shocked that anyone else is shocked that the ticket doesn't understand a topic they're discussing. That's basically their entire M.O.

Listen to any segment where you have even passing knowledge and it's jaw-dropping how clueless they are.

Nothing new or earth shattering. Jake thought he should have gotten more time to reduce buyout.

Donnie listed Kingsbury alongside Urban Meyer as a big time coach that the alum are demanding. I know these guys aren't plugged in on the situation, but acting like Kliff is a big shot kind of shocked me. Hasn't done a thing since he and Manziel parted ways.

If you think about it...Kliff just got out of Manziel's way. That's what he did. And credit where credit is due, but he's never impressed me beyond getting out of Johnny's way.

Kliff had an incredible offense at Tech too. I could see a route for him similar to Sark. Not saying he's on my list but I can see a world where he figures out how to do his thing on offense and put the right pieces together around him somewhere down the line. He was never going to have the pieces at Tech for a good D.

Kliff has handsome looks and a trumped up pedigree thanks to the media. His head coaching record is terrible even with Mahomes.

He's also the the same guy who thought he should stake his NFL career to Kyler Murray.

He looks and talks the part but he doesn't coach the part…which is the most important in actual coaching.

This may be the dumbest thing I've heard on the ticket all year, and that's really saying something.

Not defending Craig, because he's pretty dumb. But the context was Jimbo first donates a huge chunk of his payout to charity. Thus pointing out how out of control things have gotten. It's still dumb, but you left out a pretty important piece of his comment.

Replying to AgGrad99.

Jake thinks we can't hire anyone better than Jimbo. I'm not sure what the exact combination of jimbo being great and A&M being unable to hire anyone better because we're A&M it is. They mostly initially just covered it as a "wow, can't believe they paid that much".

Yesterday's episode they briefly covered the betting lines for new coach and they said Elko would be a damn good hire and were intrigued by Traylor. Jake also likes GJ Kinne (TX St HC) and I think would be excited to see him get a shot. They were baffled by some of the names on the odds list.

Just have to tap the sign:

"TICKET PERSONALITES ARE FOR ENTERTAINMENT, NOT DEEP THOUGHT. MOST OF THEM HAVE SHOWN REPEATEDLY THEY ARE UNABLE TO CARRY OUT THE MOST SIMPLE TASKS OF A FUNCTIONING ADULT."

I love listening to these guys, but life is infinitely easier when you realize they have a very limited understanding of how the world works.

For a second, I entertained the idea of A&M hiring the XFL Champion Arlington Raiders's head coach, Bob Stoops, just to imagine how Corby would handle the news.

i think i disagree with junior on damn near every topic imaginable; this one included.

the take that a&m shouldn't want/expect a national championship (because they haven't won one in 86 years) is effing stupid.

any power 5 school with the requisite resources (so basically not the vanderbilt types) should have the expectation. and resources-wise, a&m is pretty much at the top.
obviously missed it and he's a ****** but hard to believe he said this...what a dumb ****

he's by far the weak link in the morning

he actually said he feels for our fan base and can't name a more passionate one. Said sucks to pay 70 million but it was the right thing to do and we are one of the best jobs in the country

said with how fast the coaching turnover is these days it's hard to say there are many "knowns" out there to go hire and we already tried that with Jimbo
