Here's the deal. Call me old school.

NONE OF THIS MATTERS.

ZERO.

As long as this team performs within SEC play.

They can lose every single game for all I care prior to SEC play. Is it ideal? Is it a bit embarrassing?

Sure. But all I care about is that this team qualifies to host a Regional.

I didnt expect this but I certainly expected Earley to be figuring things out into mid-season.

Cut the man and his players some slack. Start the *****ing, moaning and asking for him to be fired once they fall on their face within SEC play. PLEASE.

If you can't beat Rice with your back against the wall what makes you think we are going to compete against literally the deepest conference in baseball?

I'm not embarrassed at all. It's college baseball, for heaven's sake. I love this team and I love our school, but the way our programs perform on the field, court, pool, etc. doesn't embarrass me ever. Life is way too short to get embarrassed by what 18-22 year old young adults do in an athletic competition.

What does embarrass me is how - for example - the yell leaders act, both on and off the field. The social media cringe-worthy videos and the flouncy twirling around on national TV are an extreme embarrassment for me. Those dudes are supposed to be front-and-center representatives of the university, yet time and time again they disgrace the school. I would trade all wins in every sport for a set of yell leaders that didn't make my skin crawl.

But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)

Has a team ever gone from ranked #1 to unranked in one week? I have to assume are on the brink of history.

Agree. They need to get back to the basic yells of the 80's.

Yell leaders used to by redass badasses.

Now, they look (and act) like a bunch of sissy-boys.

If you're an Aggie fan and you're worried about what everyone else thinks about the Aggies, you're doing it wrong.

They all gonna hate, so ****'m!

Not really, Rice is awful.

Anybody who watched Johnny Jolly dance around after stuffing a telegraphed dive into the line while down 77-0 would never be embarrassed by anything on our baseball field.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough

I remember when Dennis Franchione called A&Ms out of conference games "pre-season".

It does matter! Every year there may only be one or two clear cut teams for a national seed. Then comes the next tier of teams and games out of conference do impact your National seed and the ability to host a Super. So unless we take the top spot in conference, which will require sweeps not 2 of 3 every weekend, these non-conference games will matter. Only benefit to us is that we lost these games early in the season so if were in the mix we will likely be strong at the end.

I must have missed something. Dare I ask what the yell leaders possibly did?

There was recently some video they posted to social media where the dudes are all laying on a bed, doing some sort of routine (?) where they were swaying their sock-covered feet back and forth to the beat of some song. I saw about 5 seconds of it and turned it off. It was...um...strange, to say the least.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

....one of Texas A&M's injured members of the pitching staff, junior Shane Sdao, took to social media to express his gripe with how Aggie fans, specifically on X and Instagram, have reacted to the program's losing streak.
Quote:

"Some of the things that I am seeing on X and Instagram are just absolutely disgusting and ridiculous" Sdao stated. "We all understand that we are not playing the best of our abilities but the level of hate and disrespect being thrown out is completely unacceptable and out of line. At the end of the day, we are all human, and no one is more frustrated than we are. We are working everyday to be better, and this is not helping at all. No one has an idea of what any of us are going through. This doesn't just go for the baseball team, it goes for every other sport as well. Let's go back to being Aggie fans instead of acting like opposing team fans. Let's do better, Gig 'Em! "

You are a sad, sad little man that you let college kids embarrass you. I suggest you find another hobby that complaining about yell leaders.

Well...that was a little harsh.

If you're not seeing how the yell leaders are acting and you're not embarrassed on behalf of the university, then you're simply not paying attention.
