Those that think that booing doesn't happen at Kyle, you might wanna go to a game. The no booing went away about 15 years ago. Oh, not all students stand anymore, either.

Several team members will probably display social justice, but we should let them play football, regardless of our viewpoints. Sure, fans have as much right to boo their own players as players have a right to knee for the anthem. If we keep booing Kellen Mond and other players calling for SJ, we will turn off potential recruits because they might think we are a fractured fan base, who would not support players we disagree with. Therefore, we must take the high road for Jimbo Fisher to continue recruiting the best players he can get.

Good thoughts. Mond has everything he needs to be stellar this year. His opportunity to lead and to win. We should desire that he puts the team on his shoulders by executing the offense and on the bench encourage and exhort others to play to leave everything on the field.
What have we seen to suggest Mond is likely to be stellar? Hopefully he is good enough, but nothing suggests he is stellar irrespective of his Social Justice Warrior tendencies.
I could easily see the media portraying it this way. We could come across as the most redneck school in the SEC. Maybe it's just me, but I don't think that's a standard we are looking for.JoeOlson said:
If he gets booed, we are literally on Sportscenter and every major outlet broadcasting this stereotype of redneck, racist hicks. For the love of God, please have some respect for a fellow Ag. Not only is it the right thing to do as a human being, it's also a smart thing to do if you want A&M to recruit and compete at a high level. Literally benefits no one to boo
Better offense. More experience. Some unknowns. It's up to him to lead. Stellar is eight or more conference wins out of ten games.TexAggie1999 said:greg.w.h said:Read carefully what I wrote. You're bad at reading.TexAggie1999 said:greg.w.h said:

OK. I will restate my question. What has Mond done to suggest he has everyrhing he needs to be stellar this year? There isn't anything to suggest he has the talent or skill to be "stellar".
You are bad at evaluating QBs or have a very low bar for stellar.
Exactly, am I happy with him? NO, but I doubt he would be happy with the position I take on certain social issues either, to each his own. Just keep it out of Kyle Field.rcb05 said:I can understand this stance. If he does something there on the field, you disagree with, I'm not gonna tell someone not to voice their opinion. Folks talk all the time about how they want sports to be an escape, to be separate from all of the things going on in the world. If you boo Kellen on Saturday when all he is doing is playing football, you're bringing outside issues into the sport, not him.FLATOUT said:
I'll be there, and I'll boo if there's any type of kneeling BS that happens during the National Anthem. Other than that Mond has every right to voice his opinion just like we all do. Hopefully he keeps it off the field and focuses on his athletic performance.

The idea that some of you are "taking the high road" because "Aggies don't boo" is absolutely comical considering that QB1 couldn't care less about you and our traditions.
Believe they have been instructed to "Take the High Road."TAM85 said:
Will be interesting to see whether "Mr. Defund the Corps" is booed or hissed by any members of the Corps.

Feel free to boo from the comfort of your own home.
If you go to Kyle and boo at ANY PLAYER, well, I may exercise my right to accidentally spill drinks on you throughout the game.

Mind despises a large number of Ags who view things differently than him (I.e. calling us racist if we think the man who saved our college was a racist and should remove the statue of him). I am not rooting for him (or others that think like him), but I am rooting for our boys. If he tries any stupid political nonsense, I will boo him.

I was responding to one of your Sully bros.
85AustinAg said:
Aggies don't Boo. Especially other Aggies. Even when their political beliefs don't align. And even when thin skinned Sully supporters get called racist we don't boo then either.
Seriously. I support Sully staying right where he is but I'm not so butthurt and petty to even contemplate booing somebody who says that I'm racist. I know I'm not and I don't give a **** what anybody thinks about that. Kellen Mond or otherwise.
This thread sounds more like somebody tattling about someone saying a bad word in a kindergarten class than it does about anything related to the Fall 2020 football season.
Grow up or just go away for awhile. It's sickening the way some of you talk about the players and coaches.

I like the case you make, and I hope it will change some minds. But if this board is any indication of what Aggies will do, Mond will be booed.

Even if you vehemently disagree with Mond, Kyle Field during a game isn't the place to air your grievances. Everyone is there for a common purpose - to BTHO Vandy. Booing literally does nothing positive expect maybe somehow make you feel better about yourself. Yeah, you really showed him. Don't want to support him? Cool. Don't show up. Don't watch. Problem solved.
For those that show up, yell and cheer for the Maroon and White to BTHO Vandy regardless of their political views.
If you really must address Mond, then address his off the field comments with your own off the field comments. Don't bring it into Kyle.
