Why is it assumed it's a fan of A&M?

So it sounds like you know who sent the letter?

edit - directed to the OP.

A dollar to a donut it wasn't an Aggie fan, and certainly not an alumnus.

My guess is it was a rival fan and it's accomplishing exactly what they hoped it would.

Already blowing up. National media has gotten and received multiple phone notifications.

You sure they mailed it? I thought the post office cancelled stamps when they processed letters??

99% of people will take that letter for what it is, the insignificant work of a pathetic piece of trash and not give it any more thought.

The other 1% will use it to further whatever their agenda is (generating clicks, race baiting, whatever)

because people who like the school in Austin want nothing more than to paint Aggies as racist.

Calling it now. The person will be identified and it's not even an Aggie.

that said, Sumlin putting something out there completely unverifiable that does nothing but damage the school and the fanbase tells you all you need to know about the stage we're in

it's over. you don't come back from this.

I have no idea what I just read, he went to A&M correct? I guess he didn't take English

Oh and Sumlin isn't going to win
Looks like you also didn't take English at A&M.

Also, it looks like the zip is 77075

I guess it could be 77843

Who--or, actually, WHAT--is this letter hurting? Sure, it is hateful and I would not want KDS or his family to get that from anyone who meant it. Can we be sure that it was really sent from a racist Ag, or should we be suspicious that it is a False Flag raised to cause us to drop legitimate criticism? I have read lots of threads since Sunday night, and my take is that 90% of those were that we lost because the coaches abandoned what worked in the 1st half, and, indeed, continued to work in the 2nd half--running the football--and turned to what did not work at all, attempting to pass the ball while not burning clock in the process. Those are valid criticisms, though some--the other 10%--would fault the Defense. Whichever is correct has nothing to do with race.

I am sorry that we are even talking about this. If the letter is legitimate, it is despicable. If it is an effort to deflect from the real issue, it is far more despicable. In any case, we should distinguish the two. To criticize--legitimately--a highly paid coach for game day decisions is not racist.

well we already had that perception out there to start with. Not saying it is true ...

4 has made a really important observation...I don't think that letter was delivered by the usps. That stamp has no postage mark on it. The bar code on the envelope could be a reused envelope. What does it all mean?

Wouldn't surprise me a bit if Buzbee's Facebook rant contributed substantially to Sumlin's decision to go public with this.

This is why, as it was so eloquently put in Roadhouse, you should be nice until it's time to not be nice. You don't let your temper cause you to say dumbass inflammatory crap. Yet most of you people applauded his Facebook post because you don't have any self control either.

If this was truly a threat they could lift some prints, right? Its not like they cut a bunch of letters out of a magazine.

wow I really didn't think the divorce would be this ugly

it's going to be super super ugly now

this was a really poor move by Sumlin to post. he just poisoned any good faith.

I liked the guy even in losing, but if it's gonna come to this
