    Aggie fan here, WHYYYYYY JD, WHY!?!

      Because instead of just admitting there’s an offseason and college football content slows down, he does clickbait stuff to make there’s stuff to talk about. And because A&M fans will hate watch this, he meets the quota of views.

    JD, I get what you're saying and I agree. Everyone else in the comments seems to be hating on this and all your other takes. But for the last three and a half years I've seen you be spot on with 95% of what you say. We got your back man. Keep up your great work, we love it.

    I had to double check the published date…
    Was this prediction 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 , or last year?
    It’s the same story. Until the Lamars, the Prairie Views, the Midwest Southern Illinois games are over then the plummeting begins. Usually mid- late October.

    For the Aggies, it's not the "All girls are the same"- it's "I keep dating girls from the same family- they're all the same."
    R.C. was the last coach that was able to keep "Aggieism" from infiltrating the locker room. It's the campus that creates the issue- everyone on campus is so obsessed with "Aggie greatness" (particularly within the traditions and football program) that they deify teenagers, and it leads to these demigods walking around not being locked in.
    Elko can get them there, but he's got to break the habits. If it means the guys do half their classes online where they're interacting less with their peers, If it means they get sequestered when not in class, do it.
    This is the college that is obsessed with being itself.
    You're in the Corps! You're amazing!
    You're on the football team! You're great!
    Your parents named you "Kyle" like the field? You're a true Aggie!
    (While calling the 2/3 of Aggies who don't blindly follow the traditions "two-percenters")
    Until the culture of the university changes or coaches get guys who actually don't buy into the university culture, you're not going to consistently get different results.
    I think a better parallel is the decade between Gene Stallings and Nick Saban- lots of guys who couldn't get the job done... let's hope Elko does.

    I predict A&M goes 8-4 and doesn't play in the SEC Championship game or CFP. This is more likely to be correct than any other opinion offered.

    Bro, I don’t need my Battered Aggie Syndrome to kick in in February. Please just say we are gunna place towards the bottom of the SEC and downplay our hopes so when we inevitably finish 7-5 to 9-3 regular season I’m happy! And 9-3 is a friggin gift from whatever god/gods/supernatural force gifting us a win or two

    This has been going on for 15 years. Tell me about A&M when they actually finish a season in the top 10.
    Honestly, some of these schools I have no idea why kids keep going there because you’re not gonna be getting any trophy’s.
    Penn State has way more chance. Tell your kids to go there. They’ll get better development too. SEC might accumulate a lot of talent but it’s wasted by sub par coaching and staffs.

    Remember cow had a good team for the past two years but couldn’t close the deal. They failed in the final four twice and were trash for 10+ years before. The Aggies have a much better record than cow over the past 15 years and have been in the SEC not a bush league. Elko knows what he’s doing so give him a little time.

      @@TexasRox Look it up…..Remember Strong, Herman, ? You were owned by tech, tcu, baylol, and okie lite for years. Kansas kicked your ass a couple of years go in Austin. Oklahoma has been far more successful than cow. They won 14 big 12 championships in 28 years. Cow won 3. Win something before you start kissing each other’s butt.

    Thirty-seven wretched seasons I’ve cheered for the Aggies. Never have I felt less hope for the future.
    Elko proved he can’t motivate players, and Reed proved he would be a backup on a high school quarterback-finalist team.
    So we’re stuck with at least another three or four years of 3-9 until Elko is fired, then go look for yet another coach….
