All the money in the world.

All the alumni support in the world.

And not a single decent named coach wants anything to do with us.

Schloss and Buzz jumped at the first opportunity they were given.

Elko turned out to be a complete dud.

There is literally not a single thing to be optimistic about regarding A&M Athletics. Literally not a single thing.

This next ten years is going to be REALLY dark.
but there is so much more to being an Aggie than our win/loss record.
Meh, I guess...but 110k don't pack into Kyle Field every other week to watch our traditions...

In span of just over 9 months, Jim Schlossnagle and Buzz Williams jumped for other schools, and both under Athletic Director Trev Alberts' watch.
Not good. That's all I am trying to say.
Yeah, I added that it's a bad look for Trev Alberts.

We've been at rock bottom most of the time since about 1940. Frauds and imbeciles in an endless succession for the last 80 years or so.

All the alumni support in the world (eh?) and yet we have almost nobody show ups at neutral site events.

The real problem is that we have way too many weird and miserable fans like op. No one wants to associate with people like that.


That's really not it at all. We are by and large the most supportive fanbase of this size with nothing to show for it.

That said, losing Buzz is no biggie. Earley prob isn't here for long. Elko is TBD.

Hey drama king, go visit our beautiful softball facility and throw some support behind our softball team. They are a very good team with an excellent coach behind them.

Alberts has to be the worst A.D. in Do vision 1 history. And we decided to get a guy like that from Nebraska… & How successful were they? We're SO smart, ALWAYS and pick winners, ALWAYS! It's becoming comical and we ARE the laughing stock.

The problem is Pollyanna Aggie fans still have hopium despite our mediocrity. It's quite comical.

As someone who competed in one of those "sports that DIDN'T matter", kindly buzz off.

Trust me. The hire will win press conference but will be underwhelming shortly after. Of course, it won't matter because everyone will be drunk with all of the kool-aid they drank. Wash, rinse, repeat. Texas A&M athletics. Mediocre for most of the last 80 years. No one does less with more.

Oh, so you don't want to support the teams that are actually performing well?

Ok, bleeding all over the basketball board is a great use of your time instead.

So why would anyone blame Buzz for bouncing from this trash AD?

Rock bottom is when no one wants your coaches squirrel.


So we have to be at rock bottom soon. No one will hire Jimbo and we are going to be paying him for 6 more years. I doubt anyone will want Earley after we buy him out too. I guess no one wants a empty seat for their basketball program, so there's all 3 major men's sports!

You obviously weren't around in 1970-71, when Aggie football team was 2-9 and last in SWC and basketball was 9-17 and 7th in 8-team SWC. Baseball finished 2nd, but didn't qualify for post-season play. So this is NOT "rock bottom."

Uhhhhhhhh, young? Can you please tell us older Ags what's new? Same old story for decades and decades people.

And anyone who says that Elko is a dud at this point is clueless in life or has some rather unrealstic expectations. Elko hasn't had enough time as HC to be considered a dud nor success. Younger generation knows nothing other than the demands for instant gratification. I suggest you stay off watching A&M sports and spend more time playing video games.

That's right! We hired Trev cause we knew he could run off pain-in-the-ass coaches like Schloss and Buzz. Oh yeah, baby, we playin' 4-D chess!
