I never watch post game pressers because they see meaningless.

I don't care what he has to say

Season is over because he couldn't finish

And he's fat

I'm sorry - are you perfect?? I'd bet the ranch that you aren't.

What are you sorry about?


Not a damn thing. I supposed I should have said "excuse me" rather than "I'm sorry"…..

Yeah weird that you were apologizing.

It's just something people say when they disagree with what they're hearing or reading. It doesn't mean they're literally sorry. Is English your second language? I've heard it can be confusing with all our idioms, figures of speech, etc.

Did he throw another temper tantrum like an 11 year old? He's cringe even in most wins.

Your posting is cringe.

He represents the university. Push away from the table. Get rid of the candy bowl. Use the treadmill. Good for health alone.

What is people's obsession with the way he looks? I didn't realize we had so many perfect specimens of Aggies walking around the world.
You are the world, we are the USA, don't mess with us and we won't blow your $hit away.

Elko basically said "execution". Was exactly like Jimbo.

No, it wasn't. He took responsibility and said (paraphrase) " we need to look at what we're asking these kids to do and make sure they can do it"

Jimbo NEVER took responsibility for anything.

Completely different coaches.

" we need to look at what we're asking these kids to do and make sure they can do it" Was a great quote. He was so pissed at missed assignments that he was boldly challenging the starters and saying he's not sure if they can follow directions. Good. Because they obviously can't.

Wish he was asked at the presser:
"For the second straight year, it came down to winning the last conf game of the year for A&M to go to the conf champ game….you've lost both and were outcoached in both. Can you tell us the status of your program thus far after both outcomes?"

No I just talk like a grown up. One day you will too, boy.

3rd and 2 40 yard incomplete was when I knew we were in trouble. Offensive play calling was atrocious.

Actually, that's when I turned it off. I've listened or watched us play those pukes for about 70 years now and just don't need the aggravation of watching that kind of performance.

Jimbo always said he had to do a better job on getting them to "execute". Same ****, different coach and year.

Didn't watch, but if that's what he said, then I tend to agree. That is a huge deal if they are playing ball outside the skill sets of the kids...and they are exactly that KIDS....very well off and well paid KIDS, but KIDS none the less. They are still developing and learning. I actually think this might be the problem all along. We always bring in some hotshot that has a plan but no one ever looks around and says "Maybe we should design our game around that which these kids are good at."

I don't care what other teams are good at, we are not, and we need to recognize that.

I am a good basic guitar player, and if you give me SRV's guitar, I won't be able to produce a product like he did no matter how much coaching I have, even if SRV himself gave me lessons. That's just how people are.

Elko is a former DC, just like Jimbo was a former OC. Starting to look like today's offenses (with mobile QB) have just passed him by. He has no idea how to handle it, and probably never will.

Never. He's 48 years old, 11-1 and he will never learn another thing about football or defense ever. Great post.
I resolve in 2026 to be more tolerant and respectful of trolls and emotionally fragile, overly pessimistic posters so they don’t run crying to the mods and have me banned for three days.

He's got a point, the game passed by 48 year old Saban, Pete Carroll, and Harbaugh. It's also clearly passed by Cignetti, Joey McGuire, Venables.

Nobody cares about post game press conference anger. It doesn't matter and is completely performative. It would be like getting angry after failing a test. In the end it's still a loss.

I'm not perfect and no one is, but I think the point about Elko and his weight is that he's asking his players and the staff to commit to a culture of hard work and dedication and telling us fans the same, yet he's huge which pretty much shows a lack of hard work and discipline to his health. It's like Chris Christie giving health advice during covid.

That is a low bar. Did he speed talk like he just smoked meth? An improvement.

"For the second straight year, it came down to winning the last conf game of the year for A&M to go to the conf champ game….you've lost both and were outcoached in both. Can you tell us the status of your program thus far after both outcomes?"


This would seem easy.
Last year no playoffs.
This year playoffs.
While not ideal we are 11-1 this year which is light years better than last year.

that is a very overrated quality... much prefer a coach explaining why we won.

Exactly

"11-1 in year two. Still have things to improve upon. Next question."

Apples and tractors. Not even close in similarity. Someone can be a super hard worker, completely dedicated to their craft and expect excellence in the people they are teaching said craft and be big as a house or thin as a rail. Now, if he is expected to run and perform that would be something else. If he was a dietician or a weight loss specialist, you might have an argument. Heck, even if he was a doctor, I'd give it to you. Are you saying that if Saban was in a wheelchair, then he wouldn't be a good coach of young men?

I really like Elko, but it gives rules for thee, but not for me vibes. We got Moffit and one of the best nutrition centers around. Maybe Mike should use the resources.
