The fact that posters like agchugger and Aggie dad 26 call me out is actually a plus in my book.

Again, I have made multiple posts expressing concern, bad news, things that need to improve, get better, all in the last few days. But hey, only a positive slant. Because some don't want to hear anything closer to the middle rather than just the worst case scenario on everything. Just shows you don't actually read what I post, only what you want to read.

When you go so far in one direction like some posters have, a middle of the road posts seems like it's pumping the koolaid. That's on you and not me.

You can't even simply point out that the reason Hudson didn't leave A&M is not because of the worst painted picture possible conjured up in the most pessimistic minds. You can't point out that Concepcion is excited about Reed. Again, all sunshine and roses. Screw FACTS.

once again, this board is wrong.

Hudson doesn't have Reed's work ethic. That's pretty obvious reading the tea leaves. But no physical fight occurred from the best of what people can gather. (or Concepcion or anyone in our WR room's work ethic for that matter).

Funny you guys immediately start to talk about it's because of our passing game, because KC Concepcion got here and immediately thought damn, this Reed kid can pass. He straight up said the narrative he was fed was clearly wrong from his own eyes.

But nevermind that. It's all doom and gloom here. No WR will ever want to come here, and Hudson immediately saw our QB and passing game and left. Yep, that's totally the reason. You guys have it nailed again.
beerad always gonna beerad. The narrative is ALWAYS favorable for A&M and there is NEVER any bad news.


90% of this board is full tilt one way or the other. I'll take the ones that are optimistic over the ones that crap on every single thing that happens. We've been an 8-4 team forever, so things aren't all god. We've been an 8-4 team forever, so things also aren't all bad.
I don't even consider myself optimistic regarding this situation. Losing Hudson sucks, along with Noah, and puts a damper on our receiving room. It's part of the reason I'm still predicting 8-4 because we have concerns both there and all over the defense as of right now.

But again, if you don't go full tilt negative, you are just seen as a pumper. It's actually just showing how pathetic some of the posters on this board truly are. Again, I'm considered the negative nancy in real life in my friend group. But I come here, and the extremes others go to make me look like a pumper in their eyes. Says far more about them than me.

Funny thing... you're claiming everyone is always wrong yet you've been optimistically pumping sunshine to only look like a total fool since Day 1

Without even looking there's probably stuff posted by you on this same player that's probably fitting for this conversation
I post a TON, so of course I get things wrong. I also have plenty of things I have been right on, too. Meanwhile, some are just constantly negative no matter what. So yeah, they get some things right. They also get many wrong, and just ignore it when they do and strive for their next negative prediction to come true. No different than what you claim from me. But yes, as a fan, I'd rather have a positive outlook even while acknowledging the bad, rather than a negative outlook constantly. F*** me. What a crazy idea as a FAN.

I predicted 8-4 this year. 8-4 right now for next year. Can't remember, but 7-5 or 8-4 in 2023. Such an eternal sunshine pumper. I did get 2022 wrong as I predicted 9-3 coming off a 9-1 year, so you have that going for you guess. But I'm sure everyone else nailed the 5-7 season?

Also undersold 2020, predicted 7-3. Said 2018/2019 would be two straight 8-5/9-4 before Fisher took a step up in year 3. Said 9-3 in 2021 and missed by one game. Wanted Sumlin fired for 3 straight years and pretty much predicted 8-5 the last couple before we finally did it. Would have been more than fine with firing Fisher after 2022 but again, knew we wouldn't do it. Wanted Sherman fired in year 1 but knew it would never happen. Wanted him fired again in year 3 when he started 3-3, and of course after year 4 when it actually happened.

Again, you read what you want, not what I actually post. At best, you selectively read my posts and look over all the ones where I express concern, post issues, call out things that are bad/wrong, have openly said I wanted a new HC, etc. Because they happen all the time, too. I just don't meltdown and act like a chode around every corner, and that alone is enough to make you think I've been pumping sunshine for years.

I think a lot of people like to be ultra negative just so they can always be "right". Because the only way they will be "wrong" is if A&M finally does win it all which we all know is a very, very long shot.

Our receiver room needs help. If we would've kept Noah, would be a completely different story. Seems like we gambled and lost.

My guess is if you sat this kid down and asked him what's going on he probably couldn't explain it himself. So all of these stories that pretend to understand what's going on his head are pretty funny.

A Tech buddy of mine (insert joke here) said Hudson's not a very smart guy and that he couldn't grasp the offense. Of course, he's probably giddy now that Hudson's likely to remain in Lubbock.


Serious question, why would a 5* go to tech in this day of NIL? A big red flag.


Realized that we threw on average less than 200 yards per game, and ran the ball on 60% of our snaps.

If you don't know, the Tech NIL is bank-rolled by one of the founders of Double Eagle. The rumor is that he'll spend whatever it takes to field a top-notch team. So, yeah, probably more money dangled in front of MH, and we weren't going to try to match it - simply because that would likely result in some locker room problems amongst other things...

Marcel avergaed 211 yards a game in his starts and that jumps to 241 in his last 5 games.

The only issue with the run % is how many of those runs were QB scramble. I'm sure it's not a ton but i bet the actual designed run plays are closer to 55%

Tech was also No. 9 in the nation in passing ypg without even utilizing MH for the most part (8 games, 8 receptions). LSU, Ole Miss, and Georgia were in the Top 12 from the SEC.

Do they not sign contracts? Not sure how NIL works but if they are not binding and they can up and leave whenever seems like we can cut bait with under performers too.

State law states the NIL contract cannot be conditioned on performance or staying at a school

So. . . . is Hudson gone for sure or is it still just conjecture and rumors? Thread got a little derailed there.

What do you mean derailed? We've identified 12 reasons he's a great fit, 8 reasons he'd be stupid to come here, 6 reasons why A&M sucks and is doomed to failure, and 5 reasons why we should just wait until next year.

Just like every other thread.

Let me guess, the same people that said he was a huge upgrade will now say we didn't need him.


My question is who is responsible for checking these guys out? We've already dealt with head cases and guys who cause problems

Because almost every coach, in every sport, sees the raw talent and thinks THEY are the one to fix him or straighten him out or teach him what he's missing.

Not likely. Even with NIL, there are definitely stipulations in getting the money
Sure for the life of his contract but he was paid something to come here and that money is gone.

Have no clue I'm not privy to any special info. But can guarantee he has been paid a up front bonus from the collective that's non refundable. It would be great if we or anyone said you get paid 6 months from now and even if we tried it every other school going to start off with lump sum up front. No control no oversight.

If they are stupid enough not to write in clawback clauses for stuff like this, they get what they deserve.

We gave our coach a $100MM contract then fired him with full pay a little over a year later.

Could the contract not be contingent on living in a certain area because being a local is definitely something that brings value to advertisers?

I.e. Bregman no longer has any local value to HEB so you don't see him in commercials.

I know you can't tie it specifically to attending a certain school, but it seems like you could tie it to where you domicile

that would not be prohibited in texas, but how does that play out?

lets say it says "hudson must live in Brazos County from 1/1/25 through 12/31/25 and be available for appearances as reasonably requested"

hudson then moves. Is the NIL funder going to sue hudson? show the world how much they paid him? I don't think any of them want they publicized.


(on bregman, his value is not in living in Houston, but playing for the astros. if he moves to miami, but still plays fo astros, his NIL value remains)
