That is a big A&M site. Why piss off a lot of fans?

Because it wasn’t just a coach problem at State. We had all the issues all at once. Our coach died after our dead at the wheel AD left us years behind in NIL.

It’s just a coach problem at TAMU. No school does less with more than the Aggies.

Also Lebby isn’t a hot head. The behind the scenes recaps this year make him look like a really likable guy. Elko seems to be a hot head.

I know Elko has won some games, but he does not seem like the kind of coach they want for $11m.

Elko clearly doesn’t understand how big of a belt buckle Billy has.

There was six teams in the SEC with losing records. A&M and OLe Miss together played all of them. A&M had a easy schedule and paid for it. Not as easy this season.

Because we wouldn't flinch if our coach called DN a cesspool. We know what we are.

I am not a cesspool. I might be that turd that will not flush one attempt number one.

We aren’t a cesspool, we’re more of a stagnant duck slough with algae on top. Maybe a few Lilly pads mixed in.

I've never heard Lebby be a "hot head", just the opposite. In public he needs to show some "likeability" though in a major kind of way

Texas A&M brings in quality coaches and top-tier talent every year, yet the results remain the same. At some point, you have to stop looking at the roster and start looking at the administration and culture.
