No.
Nobody pays attention to the cheerleaders anyway.
Might as well, the yell boys hop and skip around doing their little routines like little girls anyway.SteveA said:

Exactly. We have male cheerleaders now.aeon-ag said:Might as well, the yell boys hop and skip around doing their little routines like little girls anyway.SteveA said:

Went to the game yesterday and even stayed the whole time. The DJ stuff has to go. I know I'm an ol'Ag and I could live with it some…but cmon, ya gotta bring back "Gig'em Aggies" at kick-offs. You can hear it on tv, it enforces the brand. So sad to see CTs dancing to EDM before kick offs.
I wholeheartedly agree with both of you.burdt said:vic99 said:

This x1000 - also went yesterday with a veteran buddy to show him around campus and all. I hadn't been to a game at Kyle in person since 2008. It's a grand facility but the actual experience is very disappointing with hardly any yells. The dj stuff is terrible.

We are going to eventually have cheerleaders no matter what anybody tries to say about cheerleaders not being part of Aggie tradition. The truth is, this year we really could have used some cheerleaders on the sidelines during football games to offset the crap we were watching on the gridiron this year. We also could have used some cheerleaders on the sidelines and on the field during Midnight Yell to offset the crap we were watching (and hearing) at Kyle from the yell boys.

I personally think "new" Kyle sucks

It's only a matter if time. New Army cares so much about outside perception that they can't stand being a little different.

Keep the wonderful traditions at A&M but add a few new things. I feel the dance team and/or cheerleaders would just be an updated addition to cheering on the team. In 2022 it is almost feeling a little sexist to exclude any women being on the field or sidelines to show support for the Aggies.

No grasping at anything. All I am saying is that it would be a nice updated addition to add the cheer/dance team. Only having male yell leaders is very outdated in this day and age.. its not 1950 anymore. It's time to be more inclusive to women participating in game day.. not just reporting/working from the sidelines. KEEP the tradition and add to them. Not debating you.. just my opinion.nu awlins ag said:AggieMom1995 said:

We'll just about every single sideline reporter, either college or pro, is a female. That's really grasping at straws….
