Re: Matt Wells biography from Tulsa World

There are very few coaches that don't end up fired eventually if they stay where they are. There are the rare Stew type exceptions but Wells never gained that kind of immunity. Not even close. His AD had given an ultimatum just two years before to stop calling plays and chose his OC for him. You ei...

Re: Talk Me Outta A Bad Decision

I will admit right off, I'm much too optimistic as an Aggie Fan and will look for any reason to cheer for my Aggies in person. The way I see it Blake Anderson is 17-9 as an Aggie head football coach, which is an awesome record in my mind. The way I see it we may have been the worst football program...

Really, the question for Saturday will be "will the AD turn on the radiant heaters in the club section?" They haven't been on all year, I hope they are testing them this week prior to kickoff
I've worn shorts to every game so far, heaters haven't been even close to needed.
