Just like KSU, Fran and co have coached Mack and co's butts off the last two years, so I am glad he is leaving. UT has looked mentally and physically soft and weak for 2 years running in this game, the Aggies certainly earned it. I would make a crack about UT-VY lack of toughness, fire and flair, but tonight it is the Aggies night.
Well, A&M has some talent, but Fran has created a talent graveyard the last couple years. It looks like he just let them play today, especially in the first three quarters. I have this feeling that the coaching is the main reason holding back A&M and it'll really turn around if they can get a quality coach.
Props Ag's. Your team totally out coached us and dominated the line of scrimmage. Our O-Line sucks. Our secondary is sad. Akina needs to be bagging groceries along with Greg Davis. This is WAY overdue. Giving the Ags over 300 yards of passing, are you kidding me? Seriously, on offense, I call 50% of the plays looking at the formation before they're even run. You don't think and experienced coaching staff recognizes this as well? Let your friends go, Mack. Now.
If the Aggies would have opened it up on offense like that all year, they would have won at least 3 of the 5 games they've lost. They definitely would have beaten Kansas, and probably would have beaten TTech and Miami as well.
i doubt that. texas was just really ****ty. i can only remember two passes completely by a&m when a receiver was even covered(one great catch on the sideline and then the long td when griffin tackled his own corner). that's terrible defense(and good decision making by mcgee throwing the ball to the open man) but that's not something that is going to happen every week. most teams like to cover opposing receivers. texas just kinda likes to let them run around open. and really, this was just such a pathetic effort and gameplan by texas. i mean a&m came out with a good gameplan attacking the texas secondary that doesn't like to cover people, but that probably wouldn't have matter had texas just let jamal carry them on the ground. every time they took him out(so every 3rd down because the dumbass coaches don't realize charles is better than obynshnasna at every part of the game) or went away from him, something bad happened. he had like 20 touches for 175 yards. the rest of the team didn't do ****. it's not hard to see who needs to be getting the ball.

Most fun game of every year too, no matter the result. Almost seemed that Fran allowed the team to just play the first 3 quarters.... Fun game, back and forth for the most part.
how can the game really be considered back and forth? a&m dominated, texas sucked ass. then texas played alright, then a&m dominated again, then texas made the score seem respectable by doing just enough to not have a chance to win.
special props to bigtexxx 4 repeatedly using the phrase "bonghorns" lolololol way to stick it to the stoners man
I'm pretty sure it's frowned upon to have stuff here that automatically plays when you open the page.
Good job Fran! It couldn't wait till Monday. It's all about you, coach. I dunno, maybe the resignation actually adds to the giddiness of Aggie nation today. Seriously if Coach Fran had run the same offense he ran yesterday all year he wouldn't be looking for a job today.
