No I come here for actual news. Not Don class of '83 telling me why he does or doesn't want a coach.

Untold Spirit- thanks for correcting that Blunder #1. I didn't see that play. Started watching after flipping to it when i saw the score a few mins later. I was going off what the announcers said and what the play by play had- that they went for 2 after texas was offsides on the pat. I'm still not clear why they had to do it over- i guess the guy made contact.

re a few comments above about sometimes going for it in OT. That's absoutely true that at times it is the right call, and at other times it is justifiable. This didn't appear to be the case in this game, by any metric. I would also add that KState was moving the ball well against Texas, but their near-goal line O was struggling.

Also, I didn't comment on this, but their 4th down play was terribly designed and terribly executed, both. It was doomed from the start. Just very little creativity and it left no other options when Texas covered the only two viable receivers. Mind boggling.

I don't see the A & M faithful as having an entitlement mentality. You have to actually have received something to feel entitled to it . I think it's more of a "can we please win a title just once in our lifetime " mentality . Now maybe the BMA's are different and maybe you're correct that they actually set the tone for the program rather than the rank and file Aggie.

I may be fos on this as well but I feel like the BMA's are pretty hands off other than coach hiring and firing. Is there evidence that they meddle in the program beyond that ? I think the hiring and firing influence by big donors is not unique to us at all.

I'm sure Bjork will take your post into consideration during conversations with leadership.

Why people feel the need to get their thoughts out there on things they don't control is beyond me.
Right? So weird fans sharing their sports opinions on sport-related topics. Thank you for getting your thoughts out there.


I can picture you at home right now: "Honey! Come quick! here's ANOTHER post from someone on Texags expressing an opinion on the A&M coach search. WOW!! it's just inconceivable."

"yes, dear."

Exactly. The concept of a message board seems to be lost on some.
