Hardly hopeless if you just consider the A&M team this season to be "Meh" and all on the Head Coach. Had faith he would adapt but Elko shows he's unwilling on offense and the QB. Just frustrating TAMU is paying millions of dollars for "Meh" of a Head Coach.

We've had much worse teams than this, but there's something different about this year …

Just knowing the coaching staff won't even try anything new when what's on the field is obviously failing … it's just so disheartening as a fan.
lmfao if you feel hopeless.

I'm full of life which is the opposite of lacking hope. Sucks to be you but I hope you get fulfillment in other ways than Aggie football, dude.

Jimbo's last year felt the most hopeless. The payout was enormous, he wouldn't make changes, our coordinators were crap, our line coach was an unequivocal disaster, the team was out of control and it felt like there was no way we could get out of it. And this feels exactly the same.


This feels worse to me

I wouldn't fire Elko but make him replace that OC.

How and who makes him fire the OC? What do you do if he doesn't?

We didn't know how crazy our BMAs were in Jimbo's last year but I don't think they are going to go to the well again to fix the exact same problem three years later. We're fooked.

Weird response to me saying I'm disheartened as a fan of this team … good for you though that you can watch this train wreck with a smile of joy on your face …

I have been checked out on this season since Kentucky. I hope to see a couple more wins but I do not expect any. That is my definition of hopeless. I haven't felt like this since Sherman in his first year, or oretty much any of Fran's years. I was spoiled with my years at A&M, 85-89, never losing to sip and winning 2-of-3 Cotton Bowls. And the following decade was mostly solid although ultimately frustrating.

Years ago......Remember the signs all over AggieLand that stated "NEXT YEAR IS HERE"
now
They are designing similar signs that say........"NEXT YEAR I FEAR"

Hopeless?

Just accept we are meh this season.

IMO, we wiffed in the portal on Edge rushers, Oline, and Horton had been a disappointment - perhaps because of Reed. And Reed has been bad.

Bright spots are kicking game and young RBs. To a lessor extend some of the young receivers.

I lived thru Fran. Doesn't feel hopeless.

It's astounding that these guys look like they don't practice together, the on field result is last bizarre.

I've been watching since 1984 and don't ever recall being so hopeless that we could win the next game. We had off years and epic second half collapses, but before kickoff, I always had some hope we could pull something off. Not this year.

Unless we blitz, we have absolutely no pass rush. Many of Russell's long passes wouldn't have happened with a real pass rush.

I was in shock that Elko trotted Marcel out there after the second interception. Stubborn mule.

It's almost sinusoidal. Would be nice if it was only one phase. We need a change

Ignore it. Posts like these are so dumb and unnecessary. Clearly compensating.

It's crazy that we are finally allowed to pay players and we still can't put a good team on the field.

After the loss to app state I quit watching games live and would check the score after the game, if we won't, I'd watch.

I had no clue we beat Alabama until I got a text congratulating on the win.

I'm not there yet, but I'm getting close. If Reed threw another pick 6 early in the game (so a 3rd INT) I'd of turned it off if Hart didn't come in to play.

TWICE! And then dropped the mic after the 2nd victory with his resignation from this toxic group.

Only difference in 2026 and 2022 was Devon Achane. He gave us some hope each game. He also single handedly beat LSU to end the season.

Jimbo's offense in 2022 would have been just as bad without Achane. 2023 was actually looking up with Weigman until he got hurt against Auburn.

Before 2022, the 2011 year where you just knew Sherman was going to blow it by going conservative.

Fran beat Texas


It took until year four and five. He was unquestionably the worst coach of the last 30 years. It's bonkers to me he even got to year 5 here.

All you need to know is that the "smartest guy in CFB" thought it was a good idea to put a rookie OC in charge of his offense.

One of the wealthiest programs in the country and decided he couldn't do better than a rookie.

It's an insult to the team, the program, the fans and the university. A&M is not where a coach cuts their teeth as a coordinator.

Tom Wilson & Fran both beat cow. Elko is 0 - 2 and not likely to change that this season.

The hopelessness is because of Reed. It's an easy fix. He should never have been recruited.

This, EXACTLY. Fran held us hostage to his stubborness- both with Reggie and then McGee. It was absolutely maddening- like knowing your driver is heading straight for a cliff and u cant do a damn thing about it.

Was Fran ever last in his league? Fran at least had the sense to change things
