On November 1, Karl K. Stegall wrote an article titled "Do yourself a favor: Put Texas A&M on your bucket list" which you published. The article contained an unquestionably false statement. I am writing to ask you to publish a retraction and correction.

Mr. Stegall made the statement:

"During World War II, Texas A&M produced more than 20,000 combat troops to become a part of "The Greatest Generation," more than the United States Military Academy and the Naval Academy combined."

This is not an accurate statement.

As can be confirmed by Elaine McConnell, Rare Book Curator at West Point, 9,802 United States Military Academy graduates served in World War II.

Adam Minakowski, Reference & Special Collections Librarian, Nimitz Library, U.S. Naval Academy can confirm 12,976 Naval Academy graduates served as officers during WWII.

Texas A&M claims 14,123 alumni served as officers during WWII and just over 20,000 served in all ranks. The total claimed by TAMU is not greater than the combined totals of the two military academies.

As Veterans' Day approaches, it would be appropriate to publish a retraction and correction, so that the public has a more accurate understanding of the contributions of the graduates of our esteemed service academies.

Please forward me a copy of your retraction and correction.

I hope the ags get all excited over the thought of Jimbo Fisher leaving Tallahassee, Florida to relocate to College Station, Texas to try to breathe some life into a football program that hasn't consecutive seasons with a winning record in conference play since the 1990s.

The ags have no clue why Kevin Sumlin has failed to deliver while at A&M. Jimbo Fisher knows exactly why. And he also knows the reason Sumlin hasn't had more success isn't going to change just because the a g g ys decide to change their head coach. Fisher also has to know the a g gy AD is one of the weakest ADs of any major program. Why would Fisher want to step into a program with major structural problems?

This is going to be interesting. I can't wait to see how a gg y $#@!s this up.

We could bring in Saban for $2 million a year and he would explain how the "Stoopid aggsies f#*%ed up again."

Fisher is a much riskier hire than Taggert or Frost, simply because no one is sure whether Fisher will be able to avoid the "Mack Brown syndrome" of not working as hard at 60 as he did as he did at 45. One reason Saban is Saban is his incredible ability to seemingly remained focused on every detail at age 65.

If a g gy wanted long term stability, they would look for a ten-year hire who can repeat the model for success almost every successful program has followed, which is building a stable program. But a g gy being a g gy, they want to try to immediately find lightning on an aged bottle, therefore they are going after Fisher. Since landing Fisher would mean Jimmy Sexton would be involved, one can bet that a g gy's hiring of Fisher will raise expectations, not manage expectations, and there will be an annual circus around contract re-negotiations.

Florida State hasn't had a head coach search in 40 years. Their AD is Stan Wilcox, who came to FSU in 2013 from Duke. Duke basketball is the epitome of stability. Duke football is in the best shape under Cutcliffe it has been in a long time. There is no way Wilcox is going to put up with Jimbo Fisher's constant contract demands if he can cycle through and bring in a quality ten-year hire such as Taggert.

a g gy arguable should be looking at someone such as Taggert, but they can't because he "isn't of pure Aryan blood." (That was code for something). To build long-term success, Morris would be a far better choice than Fisher. But, again, a g gy gotta a g gy. It's what they do. Sharp hasn't told Woodward to "build a program that can deliver long-term results." Woodward has been told to go throw money at Jimbo Fisher.

Woodward is willing to be a puppet for the guys who really run a g gy athletics, instead of being the guy who runs athletics. He is a weak AD. a g gy will never have success in any major sport as long as they keep hiring weak ADs. No head coach with viable options wants to work for a weak AD and have t himself deal with the constant $#@! from the Chancellor and BMDs. Dealing with those buffoons and allowing the HFC to focus on his job is the ADs responsibility. Look at ND last year, when the AD made Brian Kelly move his focus from the team to the buffoons. No coach with employment options is willing to work for a weak AD. Period.

I assure you that Wilcox will kick Fisher to the curb if Sexton keeps pushing his buttons. He is used to working with grown-ups such as David Falk. He is not going to tolerate Jimmy Sexton.

a g gy is bidding against themselves for Fisher right now. And the money isn't the big issue. The issue is the terms of the contract a g gy will agree to. They $#@!ed themselves with the contract they gave Sumlin and they are about to one-up their dumb****ery even more this time.

Optimally, hire a head football coach no older than fifty, and an AD no older than 55. That is what stable programs have done for decades.
