    Does that mean it's time to resurrect "RC Didn't Offer"?

    Cannot wait until RC has to explain to Chad Morris why Jumbo was worth $75 million upfront for 10 years, but Chad son you are only worth $3 million a year for 4 years.

    R.C Slocum. Maybe that’s all they can afford. He’s gotta be older than dirt.

    I actually like RC. To me he represents that 'aw shucks', slightly dopey, but good-natured, good 'ol country boy, segment of aggiedom that many of us know. (IMHO, a relatively small minority of aggies today). Most of that segment of aggies are either old guys, or folks that grew up out in the sticks. They seem to understand that it annoys non-aggies when they ramble on and on about the purported greatness of a&m, so they generally don't.

    Yeah, kind of like Fisher has no interest in LSU job and Mack promised his players he was staying at UNC.

    Spoken by someone who hated The University of Texas, never coached for a team that beat The University of Texas (although he coached at three schools that played the Horns), and NEVER won a championships at any level - not HS, not college, not NFL.

    The Clemson AD was on the first CFP Committee. Maybe he could stop by Fort Worth and explain to Gary Patterson why in 2014, "Coach, you did everything we asked you to do and had a great ball club. That's why we had you #3 in the poll those last few weeks. Then when you beat a conference foe on Senior Day by 48 points, well we dropped you down to #6 as a reward. Go Frogs!".

    I agree. If more ags were like RC, it would be easier to tolerate them.

    I agree. The last 8 or so years they are just intolerable, even their sports broadcasts have the "we are invincible" flavor to it, even when they crash and burn in a sports disaster. Radio propagandist Dave South is just a smaller hicksville version of Hans Fritzsche.

    Can you imagine if they were actually more than just a hair above average?

    Oh Lord! We'd never hear the end of it! Although they are quite comical right now in the "wannabe" but "neva was", relevant status they have a firm grip on currently.

    A friend of mine and current co-worker is an older ag, that is actually pretty balanced and sober about all things aggy. Talking football recently he admitted they have many fans that he described with some word like: pompous or arrogant - about aggy fortunes. Basically fans with little to nothing to back it up for years & years, yet - just a big name coach at this point.

    Unfortunately, aggy would probably call him a 2%.

    Exactly the sort of older or raised-in-the-sticks sort of ag that I generally like and get along with well.

    TXDOT (comma) created by Aggies for Aggies, run by Aggies with Aggies, look it up in Webster's under "cluster" because nothing better exemplifies that word than TXDOT

    An original SabreHorn quote from 40+ years ago and still a truism.

    My son's roommate at UT is interning with TXDOT this summer, I will have to get him to survey his co-workers to see how many are ags.

    As some icing on that cake, the ags on twitter believe that if Jumbo is recruited by Woodward to leave and goes to LSU, they will get Urban Meyer as their HC. What flawed thinking. UM retired due to illness that, by all accounts is very serious. Must be since he was coaching at his alma mater, his dream job. Plus, aggy is the other end of the spectrum, a total nightmare.

    I always had a theory that the I35 double-decker express lanes HAD to be designed by aggy.
    They might be structurally sound. But its idiotically flawed...
    First, they chose the wrong (slow lanes) lanes to make into the express lanes.
    So anyone in the right lane expecting to be able to exit has to suddenly cross two lanes of traffic to get on the lower deck. And anyone in the fast lane would have to cross two lanes of traffic to get onto the upper deck and avoid the snarl of the lower deck...
    So dumb. Anyone with a lick of common sense would have made the fast lanes into the express lanes.
    Also, did they even add any lanes? Its just 4 lanes still, and there's room for another on the upper deck.
    Seems like the project was what they call a self-licking ice cream cone in the Army.
    It served no purpose at all, except to cost taxpayers a lot of money.
