"Hey Aggies
How is Ole Fran working for ya?"

NICE. You know they are eating this up.

Screen shot?

Somebody get a screenshot and mail it to Cox and Mays.

another one

"Texas A & M + Fran = FRANTASTIC"

Allsome.

DH just said "I havent seen a beat down like that since I left the hood" refering to thurs

o ya...that was pretty priceless. Just like during the game "A&M called a timeout to setup a QB sneek" :-(

Just a good example of the type of "people" that go to Alabama.

karma is a *****

In Fran's defense, the ethics of their current coach aren't much better.

Come on. From their perspetive this has got to be downright hilarious. We need to have a sense of humor.

We've created our own monster. Now we will have to do our best to control it.

No, but he didn't get his a$$ handed to him on national TV by an unranked team, either,

Everytime I see this I want to go on a bevo killing spree.

Why does tu wear orange?
...
It's the color their players are used to wearing except it usually says "COUNTY JAIL" on the front!

Yeah, this has got to be at least part of the dream scenario that Alabama fans wished for back in December of 2002...Shula didn't pan out for them, but they pulled the plug and moved on.

77-0 with 1:58 left in the 3rd? I forgot how bad it could have been.

And to think we will likely give up more points 5 years later. Our defense is just as crappy, so it's possible.

I had forgotten it was 77-0 in the 3rd Qtr.
OU could have broken the century mark easily on us. I guess it is possible to score 77 points on a team and still show compassion.

Why is this loser still here as we speak???
FIRE FRAN NOW!

I wonder what that's like.

I am in vegas at MGM. Just left Starbucks; Bama dude in front of me in line wearing Bama football shirt.

I joke, "So, do you want your coach back?"

It took him a couple of minutes to realize what I meant.

They need to pull the plug RIGHT NOW. Most coaches could get better results from this team. The season wouldn't be over with some real coaches.

bottom line, after switzer left ou ran thru:
Gibbs, Schnellenberger, Blake before they got Stoops. They had no problem pulling the plug when it was evident things were not working out. We should use that as an example

the thing that gets me about Fran (other than his play-calling) is he never seems to show any kind of emotion. From the look on his face when we were being beaten 77 to nothing, you would think we were doing great.

I feel like if he really wants to win, he'll become less conservative in his offensive approach. The way our offense works, you can't come back from a huge deficit. To do that, you must pass. So I suggest that when we are down by a lot we put JJ in there and go to work. He's scored on 6 of the 7 times he has been QB. Sure, this is downplayed because of how late in the game these things occured, when he was fresh and everyone else was exhausted. But still, I think JJ can do it a lot better than McGee.

Also, there is a reason why no one else uses a 4-2-5. It isn't that successful. So let's throw it away and bring back aggressive 4-3 defense.

Thirdly, when we've proven we aren't doing something successfully (like run the ball against Miami, as evidenced by our FIRST drive), we should change the gameplan. Our first drive, on third down, we should have play-action passed it.

I really have to wonder...if Fran isn't the cause of this loss, and how mediocre we've been in the last several seasons, who is? You can't tell me we don't have one of the best, if not the best running back duos in the nation.

And when we are down by 21, and it is like 4th and goal, why do we not go for it, instead of kicking a field goal???

When you've got simple minded DESMOND HOWARD laughing at you, it's really Wow! JUST WOW! time.
Stoops knows Franchione's on borrowed time at A&M. His nail driving isn't gonna change anything.
He's super PO'd about Franchione's crack in Houston this summer about his program.
He will show no mercy like he did in '03.
He will not hold the hosses back in '07.
It will be another single game record day for Fran of the Forest.

hey a-hole....Mays is in bad shape and about to pass almost any day now.

and both of these guys have done more for this school than you ever will. they went out and did what most Aggies wanted at the time so quit pinning our problems on these guys.

Give 'em credit. It wasn't pretty, but they're already on pace to be a contender and we're still wallowing in mediocrity.

They did what was necessary to put their program in position to win a championship.

I wish we had that fire at Texas A&M instead of the good 'ol boy "Well, we should just be happy to be here...wait 'til next year" persona.
