His "bitter aggy lost them to big brother" list

I feel like there is a lot of truth in that article, it is hard to win with freshman and sophomore rosters....A lot of teams are in the same place with Texas this year. They have to mature into four q

Just being in the SEC is better than competing for a title in the Big XII, according to aggy.  The Manziel team may have competed for a NC if they had been in the Big XII.  You may count that victory

Goodness gracious!  I leave for one weekend for a fishing tournament and come back to this??  My blood pressure thanked me for missing that game Saturday!  Oh and the last UNC hire we made turned out to be OK...God, how I long for Mack Brown again!

So you like Fedora too!

I think Nick played it how he wanted to play it. Of course he went to Reds house. How do you think we know that? He's own people leaked it so Bama would know. He and his wife can to Austin or any other city in the world with the money they have. Why leave a gig like Bama?

The contract he signed was the same contract that was on his desk before he went to Red's house.  You may be right, but with the timeline, you could also be very wrong

Championships at three different schools is the reason!

Would Saban have a title in the two years he would have been at Texas? I don't think so and he probably wouldn't be in the position he's in now with Bama this year to win another. 

Why do you say that ?? No matter what Was said on College game day Texas is probably the top University in the Nation Surrounded by top athletes That want to go there and just a few years ago Texas could get anybody it wanted..So Why wouldn't they be??

Texas is the best college job in he nation there is not doubt - However, it also comes with the biggest expectations - any coach would have to look at their current job other jobs on the market and take that all that into consideration and the expectation level will be a large factor in any coaches decision.  Some will take the challenge but others may pass - the longer Texas in an Average team the shorter the time will be given for those new coaches to turn it around.

Texas like all schools wants to win and win now - the only difference is that Texas has a history that will hard if not impossible to get back to - but their fans expect it year in and year out.

That's understandable...and very much true...If it's something that will keep ppl away it's THIS.....Nobody wants to come to a job were there is a Lesh or boosters who could have you fired..

another thing is We need a strong administration that doesn't faint at the first wave of trouble..Our administration seems to be wavering right now and it's not a good look ..they need to get it together

THE GOOD THINGS

Great Facilities

Great MONEY

Greatest Chance at the best players in the Country

Austin, Texas itself

Alumni (X players)

 

 BAD THINGS

High Expectations

Boosters with deep pockets that want to win NOW

Not so sure about the Administration Backbone may be a little weak

Those Bad Things are at every Power 5 school.

Imagine if aTm had not given Sumlin an extension after year 1. He probably gets fired after last season.

Maybe but he would be on the verge of a dynasty regardless.  Bama had been pretty much atrocious for a decade or so before Nick got there.  As easy as he makes it look at Bama, it would arguably be even easier at Texas.  Combine the best recruiting base with college athletics biggest brand, it would tough for a coach like Saban to miss .  

BUT that was a missed opportunity and the powers that be appear to have their sites set on Hermann.  Ironically, LSU firing Les so early probably shortened Charlie's leash.

He better find a defensive coordinator if he stays.

      Biden s title nine remake

      Go live in a third world country then get back to me about the word “poor”…..you ll have a different perspective.  Your right a kid shouldn’t suffer for parents decisions, but that’s the world we live in created by those who don’t teach responsibility as well as handicapping by giving handouts.  Cause and effect.   Now yes there are people who are hit with some tragic unforeseen circumstances who need help to get back on their feet but that’s different then a habitual irresponsible lifestyle  fema is a totally different animal.  And it’s actually  something I’ve never had to deal with…..so I can’t really speak on it but I do know it’s a govt agency and most govt agencies are poorly ran.  Natural disasters have been part of this earth for a long time….way before fema came along and people have managed. said kids get taught by said parents that the govt owes them for their circumstances instead of seeing for what it really is and the lesson that should actually be taken from such a life…..”I’m not going to be like my parent or parents….im going to look at others as examples …..my teachers, my coaches, any aunts or uncles, relatives etc etc that are successful…..I’m going to work hard and smart and make good decisions and what bad decisions I do make I’m going to learn from.” Suffering is a great teacher.  This earthly place is temporary and many will suffer even the righteous and even children. Life on earth is not fair….its not a new concept. The good ole race card.  I’m not surprised. I feel the same way no matter the color.  Whites are just as guilty as any other race.  It’s not a race issue it’s a culture issue.  You have allowed color to guide your thought process…..is that what you were taught. how bout you check out the income of many of those politicians you vote for who care so much about kids.  They go in as an every day working citizens then come out millionaires off of shady deals, kickbacks and taxpayers backs. They keep promising y’all false promises and you keep falling for it….bidens been doing it for over 40 years. i just wasted time on this reply because you are not hearing any of it……..you want handouts with no accountability. .sorry to the posters who wasted their time reading this…..it got off topic.

      Baseball bat time again. You mentioned two “mental” disorders. That tells me they are made up in someone’s mind. Allowing a male in women’s restrooms and letting them compete in women’s sports makes them feel better about themselves? All they amount to is males who can’t hack it in the real world.
