Personally, I think aggy is a West LA (Louisiana) residence now. For all practical purposes, they are no longer a TEXAS team. They moved east...let'm be from West LA now.
Saw this link on TexAgs... tracks first 42 games of Fran vs. first 42 games of Sherman (Fran, with more games of course, made to match the number of games thus far with Sherman). Sherm Tracker What it says to me is that it's not the coach, it's A&M. Something the crickets can't come to grips with and now think that switching conferences will improve who they are. Funny.. they change coaches. No difference. They change conferences... we'll see.
Changing conferences would likely be a net loss for them. Once they start playing ‘the big boys’ they will probably lose more often, creating an even less-appealing destination for top recruits.
the fact that the Aggies gave Sherm an extension tells you all you need to know about why Aggies fail
What about Fran's last 42 games versus Sherman's first 42 games? In retrospect Fran had the benefit of RC's recruits, which Ags thought were in bad shape at the time. UPDATE: Okay, looks like the comparison is even worse for Sherman if you do that comparison. You throw out Fran's first season (4-8) and pick up his last season (7-5).
Forget the SEC next season... looks like Sherm has a more immediate concern of his team relaxing on second half leads, his players being out of shape (Gundy mentioned this) for the second half vs OSU and Arky. Now he wants to evaluate all postions and maybe replace older classmen with younger players... nice going into game 5 of the season.
Torbush WOW. They are literally mired in mediocrity. Seeing that their defense gave up over 400 ypg during both coaches' first 42 games made me wince. And did you know that at the moment they're dead last in passing defense? Sucks to be them.
It's hard to talk when you're squeezing really, really hard...the "pucker factor" over at Bagdad on the Brazos must be up around fifteen right now...
aggy should be able to outscore Tech this weekend so no one should be worried about being thrown under the bus. However the following week is Baylor at collie station. There could be dogs coming out of graves at the end of that one however.
Aggy is just a quiter. They quit against OSU, They quit against Ark, they quit the Big 12. Their fan base are quiters (most are anyway). Eric Aggie quit Hornfans. It just took 3 or four games and he is outta here.
