Never understood why the student body hasnt elected all women yell leaders. Got to be some sororities that can put up some candidates and get the student body behind them. Is there some tradition rule against that?

There's nothing wrong with being gay.

The bigotry on this board is disgusting and makes Aggies look way worse than anything the yell leaders do.

Like they do in other sports

Two posts in reply -

Post 1:

It took one game into the renewed sip series for bull**** Aggie inferiority to rear its head. we played in the toughest conference in the country against marquee programs with Yell Practice televised and video-snapped for thirteen years and no issues.

renew the sip game, and a few sips with cameras and in-state Aggies are cowering demanding we turn the institution upside down to keep from being laughed at.

frigging pathetic.

Post 2:

Fix yell practice because it is antiquated and the 'grode stories/jokes' are dumb and no longer add any value to an epic event six nights a year that is truly unique in the college football universe. three easy steps:

1. Knock off the damned twirling dance bull**** the yell leaders do. I don't want to research when that started, but it is new enough that I never saw it through the 90's, it is asinine and embarrassing - a soldier/farmer in overalls twirling around like a backup singer at a Beyonce concert. its as if, as a compromise over not having females with skirts and pompoms on the sidelines we feminized the yell leader routines - idiotic. whoever the dumbass was who started that should pay penance by reciting the bonfire poem 1000 times on live cast video with no breaks.

2. Replace the 'got a little story for you aggies' with a yell leader introducing an in-state comedian to perform a ten minute routine - different act every yell practice, with a dig or two in the jokes about the opponent but otherwise just straight standup. will be hugely popular and zero cringe.

3. Put the dance team on the track behind the yell leaders doing the yells with the student body.

Three simple steps and midnight yell will thrive for another fifty years.

It's time for a change. I'm all for embracing our traditions, but this is just embarrassing. Time to modernize, reassess and move on.

"we feminized the yell leader routines". These prissy boys have come up with these, hump, hop, and twirl around routines themselves!

This thread reeks of a horn troll job. Congrats to the Aggies who broke cover and admitted to looking at some dumb post on Facebook and being embarrassed.


It could be. But the fact still remains it's embarrassing. I think everyone appreciates that the tradition is cheesy and homely, they just don't want it to be cringe.



I encourage you to go look up the bio of every single yell leader. Not only am I not embarrassed by them I'm glad I went to a school with yell leaders. Now the Aggies who look at some dumb post on Facebook and come on here and complain that we need to flush 100 years of tradition down the toilet because they are embarrassed. That is embarrassing. Delete Facebook. Trust me.
We're not trying to flush 100 years or traditions down the toilet, we're trying to save them from some woke looking hump, hop and twirl cheerleader routines.
