Horns247 Board

I think its time to put a&m behind us as far as even bringing up topics.I for one was heart broken when they went to the Sec.I think it will fade in time but I loved playing them year end and year out.I liked the jawing back and forth every year leading up to the game.I now could care less who they recruit unless it directly effects the recruiting efforts of the horns.

HOOKEM

Oxy and Moron are just code words for their president of a&m and athletic director. Can't fix stupid, but it is consistent with their "brand" !!

FIFY

The lad seems positively giddy about the Florida offer. He also seems mighty proud of his budding relationship with the Florida QB coach. Looks to me like he might be another one of the kids that mysteriously lose their "Sumlin scholarship".

Maybe you should start a campaign to get your mods to remove Gibson from your commit list?

I am sure you are right that Kohl is an aggie through and through, but we've seen business decisions before. As to Gibson, my source is WithoutRecourse.

You said his commitment is shaky which implies that's by his choice. If his commitment is shaky, it's because his scholarship's existence is. He's not been on campus since Sumlin's hiring and was not invited to either of the junior days. I would imagine the contact between him and Sumlin, assuming there has been some, is general an non-committal from the A&M side. You'll notice that there has not been a single article offering his first hand experience with Sumlin since he took the job. He is the only the only recruit in the '13 class whom that can be said about.

Kohl will be an Aggie or will be playing baseball professionally. If you've followed any of my posts, you'll recall that I do not consume kool-aid of the maroon variety. In fact, I'm not even a glass half-full of maroon kool-aid kind of guy.

None of the 3 QBs will have had much success at A&M. Also, Florida when 7-6 this past year, same record as us, and there's so much unknown about our program right now, no one can accurately predict how we will fare the next 5 years.

With new coach, your NFL bound talent loss from this year and playing in the SEC with that schedule I would say my prediction is more accurate than assuming the opposite will happen.

Both fanbases are interested in the other's program. Obsessed is a stupid word aggy throws around to try and demean Longhorns posting on their website. The only thing dumber than debating this is posting on these threads with some sort of self-righteous bullshit take about "not caring." You don't care? Fine. Don't post on the thread. Pretty simple. Trying to influence others to follow your lead as if it the most correct course of action just stinks of self-righteous arrogance and disapproval. In short, save it.

Are you serious? So you are saying that his commitment is not shaky, but if it is, then it is solely because he doesn't have a committable offer from Sumlin? Umm, aggiechip, I have no source. Just someone that is making it up as he goes along.

well said. We have been rivals for a century. Strong rivals. for times, (not OU strong rivals but close quite often in intensity to that)
remember last year when that kick when through the goal posts (see, you know the one i am talking about without even giving a month for the game). That may have ended us playing them (with SCOREBOARD aimed in the correct direction). But it did not end feelings, any more than a serious divorce means no more feelings, good or bad.

We have just handled the money matters of that divorce, but we will be dealing with the fallout for the rest of our lives.

We are by the way clearly after the same kids. (by that i mean A*M wants ours, they can have theirs)
but that might change. If they get real good, win a NC or two, maybe Sumlin becomes a Texas hero and kids want to go there.

But recruiting is a big deal in this state and we pay attention. And Aggie and us "Sips" will be paying lots of attention to each other for a long time.

those of you who choose not to do so, feel free

Chrispy,

Sleepers never wake up. Underrated players not sleepers are just overlooked.
A&M has outstanding recruits and can lose with them.
A&M is just A&M !

I can. No better than 6 wins anytime in the next 5 years. No better than 5 wins, the next 2 years.
