LOYALTY
We are dedicated to a greater purpose. We trust, respect and support each other. We are stronger and better together because of our shared support of the University.

What is this greater purpose?

I know I left a while back, but this^ was something I wanted to post and never did. Felt inspired to share now. Pass it back, one more time!

Echo-chambers of frustration, complaining & bashing will never influence or produce real change. Energetically, it's actually fueling the very opposite. Like throwing lighter fluid (thinking it's water) on a fire you want to put out. The most dangerous part of the digital age is our desensitization from the impact of what's posted or read online.

Maybe consider complaining/bashing somewhere our athletes will not read from? This generation is way more online than any of you will ever comprehend. Just a consideration in the context of family. You have the power to choose. Even if you're frustrated and have spent hours upon hours thinking about every layer, what does actual loyalty look like in the tension of that headspace? Emotion is more physics than philosophy: Emotion (Energy in motion) - what are you energizing? NIL has definitely shifted the collegiate sports experience into a corporate-pro league fusion trajectory, so the dynamics have been a learning process for all. From what I've heard, those on the outside are quite unaware of the complexity and ever-evolving factors internally.

Did you know since 2010, only TWO schools in the nation have won a national championship in both women's basketball and volleyball?? Texas A&M and Stanford. Throw in women's tennis too and it's also Texas A&M and Stanford haha!

To our basketball team: I'm so glad you all chose the greatest university on the planet! I support you, I see you and will champion you every day! The real 12th Man stands with you and is cheering you on. Please disregard language on this site that is not aligned to who we truly are. The Aggie Network is the BEST of any university. I'm convinced we have some undercover longhorns on this forum...haha. You all carry infinite potential! Every game is winnable, it's all way more mental than anything else. Let's go Ags!

Love you Aggie fam! Thank you for your loyalty to the greatest university on the planet. I'm actually peacing out this time haha, only want the best for all of you.
Thanks & Gig 'Em

Well said. I rarely post here or the game threads anymore because of the extreme negativity that exists. I still watch and follow the games and if I didn't live 900 plus miles away would attend the home games. Many people are frustrated and I get that. I expect that we should field a competitive team no matter what the sport, so I understand. Let us all try to be a little more positive.

Gig'em Aggies!

My positive response is currently not attending games.

We support WBB with season tickets and Fast Break Club memberships.

Attending in person leaves me incredibly frustrated. I sense a lack of coaching and lack of motivation in general.

I'll watch at home where I can express my frustrations privately and turn it off if it gets really bad.

i gave up tickets this year and don't watch. Call me whatever names you want.

Thinking about taking that money and buying volleyball tickets next year.

Put a good product on the field/court, i'll buy tickets.
