I dont want to make any judgments but if you were trying to extort money from a player, this would be the perfect time.

No joke i went to lunch with an aggie who Friday said they need to raise funds for a buyout. Today he is convinced they make a run in Omaha. I am not aware of a fanbase more captured by their own media. Everyday they have new talking points like they are handed a morning briefing

Say what you want but some of the Aggies have a sense of humor

Days like today, it’s actually pretty fun to work with a bunch of Aggies. The extreme confidence in the morning has switched to moping about how they will never be relavent. You hate to see it.

No, they don't. Even when the basketball team is good they dont care. The only thing they care about when it comes to basketball is if they beat texas.

Man the 2023 longhorn football team really did a number on the A&M athletic program without even playing on the field. Texas beat Alabama and made the playoff so they fired Jimbo and burned $75M. Now NIL has been damaged and two coaches left. Aggies are talking Beard but IDK if thats a realistic option.

Yeah the hypocrisy is off the charts. Like when Kerby complained about Justice Terry and NIL. Give me a break. I think Saben got tired of having to talk about the money. Must have been a lot easier talking about football and letting the bag-men and boosters handel the money aspect. Although you might be right about not having the energy to play on a level-ish playing field.

Truth is sometimes funny than fiction.

Coworker of mine was at 1860 Italia, an Italian steakhouse, the other night and noticed the A&M coach eating at the same time. Elko apparently had three main courses, steak and two additional plates of pasta. The place isn't known for small portions either. I've also heard from multiple people that he consumes a steady supply of KitKats and mountain dew durring the day.

Does Texas have any plans to make women's gymnastics a scholarship sport?

I'm disappointed but not surprised. I've gone to several spring games and its a great experience for fans, outside of potentially bad weather. Its also a great opportunity to bring younger children who struggle to sit for a whole game. I was looking forward to going again this year but nobody has ever asked me to write a check to keep a backup player getting tampered. Last years spring game was amazing so atleast we went out with a bang.

I liked Barnes. I think his downfall had alot to do with the number of NBA players that came through without seeing tournament success, post TJ Ford. I remember how painful it was watching KD and the 2006 squad lose bad in the 2nd round.

I read a report that he stole car keys from a drive thru employee. There could be more to this ,but imagine how childish you would have to be to steal car keys from a fast food worker. Maybe they know each other but either way it’s a very foolish thing to do. Hope he gets it together.

Has anyone heard how Will Randall is progressing? I know Washington has been penciled in as the starter but is there a chance Randall's history with Arch is a factor at TE?

I doubt we will ever know if the accusations are true. What's interesting is that the Baltimore Banner received a tip about behavior from a decade ago. This tip came in after Baltimore's HOF kicker, with a career average of 89.1% had his worst season ever. A season in which he was 73% accurate, 3rd worst by starting kickers in the league. His current contract which runs to 2028 makes him the 2nd highest paid kicker in the league. It would not surprise me if this tip came from the Ravens organization who might be looking to get out of that contract. Not defending the behavior if true just thought of another filter to view the situation.
