The point is that, by and large, they are not creating discussions. It is just thread after thread of some articles being cut and pasted which popped up after a "I hate Obama" Google search. The result is a watered-down board. Even on Fox, the Smitty show would have been canceled long ago...

Aggy obsession. Always been that way. Even in their new conference, with all those new rivalries (in aggy's eyes anyway), they still can't help stalking big brother!

  You severely underestimate the importance of parents in the recruiting process.  Mack Brown wasn't the king of recruiting due to his ability to relate to the kids.  He was the king because of his ability to win over the parents.  The better question is how the parents will view this recent news.

Ummm ok. Might want to consider the "watered down the board so your threads don't get read" option. Just sayin...

Israel is our only true ally in the Middle East, period.  I cannot have empathy for countries whose identities are based on their hatred for our country and what we believe in.  Their very existence seems to be rooted in hatred - whether it be for America or Jews (and almost always both).  Not to mention their abhorrent treatment of women. 

    Couldn't agree more.  Precisely the reason I rarely read this board anymore.  That and it is diluted with 30 cut and paste threads every time I visit...

On the first page of this forum. Someone needs a friend 😂

Correct. Nash, you still read ozenfinest's posts? (At least I think it was him. If memory serves incorrectly, my apologies in advance.)

Double post

50s, 60s and 70s? I only have to remember the last decade - I was in Pasadena for the NC win against USC and the NC game against Alabama. I can't imagine having to go back to the 30s to remember that kind of success. Then again, not even my father was alive for aggy's last title 😂

All I can remember is 77-0. That game was brutal and sickening.

^ Punctuation is your friend...

With the exception of Sanders and Meander, all of the other suspensions were drug related. Violation of team rules meant failing team drug tests. I hear that Johnson, Harrison and Estelle are safe for now but on thin ice. And Strong and Coach Wick are being very vocal with recruits' parents in pointing out the differences in how drug use is being handled at UT vs. another certain university.

No, no OldTimer - enjoy this amazing success while it lasts. Because if history has taught us anything, it's that A&M eventually assumes its rightful place as the Longhorns' doormat. These 7th place finishes and nail-biting wins over powerhouses like Duke in bowl games can't last forever!

Great post.

According to the Hudson family, that is exactly what happened. My prediction is that once recruits and players realize they have been lied to, the house of cards will come down and there will be a mass exodus from the eyesore known a Aggieland. The 7th place finishes and Poulan Weedeater bowl titles just won't be worth it. Wait for it...

^ Did not read. I thought it said it was from TexAgs?

Rick Perry - a real leader only Smitty could be proud of! 😂

This speaks volumes for the LU golf program IMO. I don't think it has ever been as tough to get a tour card, much less have success on the tour. I believe we are now starting to see the "Tiger effect" in golf; that is to say, we are seeing a generation of young men who started playing in the mid to late 90s when Tiger made the sport "cool." (For the record, I loved the game long before him and always thought it was cool.). However, you are seeing a bigger, stronger, fitter, and more athletic caliber of player now than we had 20 years from now. Great to see these Cards out there representing Lamar!!

That's disappointing. I have always enjoys his program for the same reasons you do. I met him once at an NCAA tournament game. I told him the genius of his program is he uses some of those hillbilly callers in the same way Howard Stern uses his "whack pack." He smiled broadly and winked at me. Finebaum is a radio genius IMO and shouldn't stray too far from what got him where he is.

Were they able to have a 7th place finish, banner year though?

I gave AAW the source of the info. I know the guy who wrote it and the portion relating to Patrick came from Patrick's mother. So yes, old timer, it is hearsay but it comes directly from someone who spoke with her and that I trust. So the issue would be with Hudson's mother. I don't see the benefit to him or her in lying about it. My bet is this is the tip of the iceberg and you will see more of this coming in the future. Then again, such is the life in the SEC.

I am sure AAW may be able to confirm this story. If true, pretty pathetic. Mack was the best recruiter this state has ever seen in the modern, scholarship limits era of Cfb. And one of the reasons was his honesty and sincerity. Sumlin will be hard pressed to have that type of career with the things I am hearing.

I am sure with these kind of antics and stellar 7th place in conference finishes, he will have no problem keeping this recruiting pace.

Poor aggy 😂 [Hidden Content]
