And.... Here we go....

Management of Expectations at its finest.

In multiple sports we are regularly losing games to teams we should be beating.

His expectations for TCU are sky high.

Johnny woke up the sleeping giant. Spav was the Tylenol PM

Ambien mixed with roofies.

Hyman is an absolute joke, but this ain't on him....

This is Sumlin's mess, it's on him to clean it up....

Someone needs to bust Hyman's low expectations for our program.

bottom line is that hyman could care less about a&m. like him or not, bill byrne had a passion for aggieland. unfortunately we let hyman take us for a ride and that is on us.

Mediocre hymen.

I'm ok with 9 or 10 win seasons. At least you have hope.

Cue the Shawshank Redemption quotes

Hyman fixed the nacho situation so he's good people in my book.

AD's are powerless when it comes to football

quote:

---

While generally athletic directors are evaluated using a variety of success metrics relating to athletic and academic performance of student athletes, Hyman views his role as one of "managing expectations", encouraging decisionmakers to accept a lower level of success.

You know what they say... A mediocre Hyman is better than... well, pretty much anything else.

Still better than the LSU AD, but that's not saying much.

You guys are a bunch of thankless pieces of crap. Hyman busts his damn ass everyday...

...for TCU.

Better than LSU AD? Remind me when we have beaten them in football.

Nothing worse than a mediocre Hyman.

Yah because an AD only deals with one sport.

Your example is bad since Hyman's job is to provide the best opportunity for success and football is the one sport where that cannot be disputed - they have every tool they need to succeed in Bright and Kyle.

Breaking Hyman.

If Hyman had his way a lot of Aggies wouldn't have even been able to get a seat in our stadium because he recommended only 95,000 seats.

.nothing mediocre about Hymen

As long as the checks keep rolling - everything is OK.

I'm curious what metrics all you are using to judge him.

My only complaint that I can actually back up is that I miss the transparency and communication we got with Byrne. Hyman puts almost nothing out.

We had mediocre facility, a run down stadium and average at best fan support (measure this by down years, every team has good support in up years) until this decade, wake up, we aren't and haven't been a power team.

Hyman isn't... those who write the checks are.

On May 25, 2015, Texas A&M's baseball team failed to receive enough votes for selection as one of the top 8 seeds in the NCAA tournament. With this decision, Texas A&M became the first and only team in the history of the super regional platform to have a top 8 RPI and their athletic director on the selection committee and not earn a top 8 seed. Despite Texas A&M having an excellent season record and performing well in the SEC Tournament, the selection committee instead chose TCU after it posted a lesser season and tournament record.

OK.... that's one example... and you weren't in the room so you don't know exactly how that went down. He may have been weak there, I don't know, but neither do you.

Didn't fire Billy Kennedy.

Now it's your turn, give me an example of something he's done well.

If we keep Spav and our win/loss record gets much worse 95,000 might be plenty.
