N Their conference mate Baylor HAS A LITERAL RAPE CULTURE, and this anal merkin is still obsessed with what the Aggies are doing.
BTW you can't ***** about someone inferring something as fact when you use a nameless "female friend" as a source of fact about A&M.
Dumbass.

**** always has some ass backward way of analyzing things to "prove" their "greatness." They compare net revenues for UT athletics to gross revenues for ****.
**** athletics had to borrow $16 million from the academic side just to pay their bills for 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 as well as another $5.2 million in 2012. They still haven't been able to pay those loans back.
I can't find an example in the history of UT athletics as well as OU, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Michigan or a long list of other schools where their athletics department had four consecutive years or a span of five years out of seven of being totally unable to pay their bills. Yet **** mocks UT athletics for leading the nation in having their athletics department contribute money to the core responsibility of the university - academics.
When Mack was let go and Charlie came on board, UT had one year where expenses exceeded revenues, and that was covered by Bellmont's $40 million reserve fund. Yet, **** went nuts, insisting UT athletics had a financial crisis. Mind you, UT still made its contribution to the academic side that year, and that contribution was far in excess of the budgetary shortfall, but nonetheless, **** declared a financial crisis within Bellmont. **** has turditionally struggled to pay their bills, now has debt service payments that are roughly 25% of gross operating revenues, including "donations" (UT's debt service payments are less than 8% of gross operating revenues), even after their Kyle Field upgrade boondoggle the overall book value of UT athletics facilities is more than three times that of **** facilities, and UT is the one with the financial crisis. Redneck accounting strikes, yet again.
One of my favorite indications of the difference between the scope and scale of UT athletics as compared to **** is the fact **** is building a track facility on their campus. They haven't been able to afford a track facility at all since their last dilapidated piece of crap was deemed unsafe in 2004. Their new track facility will have a capacity of 3,000. The Saturday attendance for Texas Relays at the UT track facility is over 20,000.
They can't afford athletics facilities that meet the needs of the most important athletics events in the state, they can't afford to leverage their athletics department to help support the core mission of the university, they are up to their eyeballs in facilities debt, and yet they still deride the way UT manages its athletics department finances. Does it get any more **** than that?

Under provisions of the new 5-year agreement, use of "12th Man" on the Ring of Honor in the Seahawks' stadium will no longer occur, nor will there be any references to "12th Man" in social media by the Seahawks franchise, Texas A&M officials announced.
....
Texas A&M officials directly involved in the negotiations said the Seattle Seahawks will continue to pay an annual royalty fee under the new agreement. The Seahawks did not desire any expansion of the previous agreement, they said, so the covered territory for use remains in the Pacific Northwest. Also, they said the Seahawks have shifted their branding to "12" or "12s," with the new agreement primarily for "incidental use" as it relates to the team's fan base.
