Sounds like the fans are pumped for the Herman Era

 

 

 

To some attendance records and attendance are more important than CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!

I do believe this the first time for Aggies to play in the Rose Bowl.

It is a great place to watch the cheerleaders and send the "12th Man".

I predict an Aggie win and a Longhorn shutout.

I wonder if there might be another circumstance at play here?  Has something gone on in the last week in a region where 1/3 of the school's alumni are based?  Even an aggy should be able to figure this one out.  In other news, these preseason rankings are something.  I would say they are based on nothing in fact.  Except that it is clear that in Texas, the powers that be reallly want one school to be "back," and realllly don't give a damn about the other one :D

I was wrong on both predictions

Texas legislature moves to ban football beyond the HS level for "emotional well-being" of the state

By SP Wire on September 4, 2017

 

(SP) The Texas State Legislature held an emergency session this morning to draft legislation that would ban the sport of tackle football beyond the high school level.


Texas governor Greg Abbott said he fully supports the legislation and will sign it when it crosses his desk.

"Texans are not ones to give up the fight," said the governor. "But we also know there's no shame in admitting defeat. Today we admit defeat. We will not let other teams run up the score on us, like college teams do so easily on our defenses."

 

Rep. Chris Turner, chair of the Democratic Caucus, said the bill is proof that government can still work for the people.

"When both sides come together, good things can happen," said Turner. "Anything is possible, except beating Maryland at football, of course. The Terps are just too good."

      Dang "Erectionists"!

      To clarify, Dems love wars. They rage daily in the bluest of blue inner citicis. Chicago had 39 shootings over the weekend, 9 dead. Warzone. Baltimore, Memphis, Detroit, etc. I am sure was just as bloody. The blue body count rises daily. I am sure the blue defunding of police and releasing murders without any bail have nothing to do with it. Right?

      Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.

      I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.

      He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up.
