When aTm doesn't win a natty in 3 years, they're going to fire the whole coaching staff again.  Why would you want to coach at a middle-of-the-road school in the SEC, especially there?

Collin also crapped the bed when we played Texas so idk what Aggies think they're getting.

eff tons of money  :dunno:
Money and I’m assuming he does prefer the political leanings of the south more generally.

Also once you get in the SEC carousel it’s really easy to stick around.

Are the political leanings of the south that much different than in western KS? I don't follow CK on the Twitters or anything, but from what I gather he loves his jeezus a whole lot and that helps him call football plays. Sounds like western KS to me?  :dunno:

He follows politicans like Lauren Boebert on twitter.  Cult A&M will fit him quite well.

Yep. And while we can agree that it’s good to have the type of coaches that deeper pockets would like to take off our hands, it points to something bigger imo.

The college football landscape has changed drastically, and looks to continue to evolve.

Klein as an example is likely moving into the stratosphere of the Jeff Lebbys of the world, where top assistants are getting paid $1.8M+/year. Those numbers will only grow as the gulf between the haves and have nots continues to grow.

This is just talking about coaches salaries, but when you add in additional TV money, NIL or what could eventually simply be salaried/contracted players, the gulf becomes exponentially larger.

College football became a big business years ago. Big business at its heart is evil, ever-consuming and ever-coalescing.

The only thing that can really put a stop to it is some type of diminishing returns.

This post probably fits better in the smoke your cigars thread.

I know CK7 is a religious Fundy but how much? Obviously we know the whole not kissing his gf before marriage which can kind of be brushed away as cute and old fashioned but does he think humans and dinosaurs walked the earth together?

We are hearing that initially the major hold up on aTm hiring Klein was his reluctance to tacitly condone their tradition of pre-marital kissing after touchdowns.  Some talk that aTm has offered to forcibly prohibit those acts going forward.

CK is no doubt a religious nut and follows political nuts, but he wasn't proselytizing it publicly constantly so it really didn't bother me.  Tang likely has less extreme beliefs, sure, but he is far preachier (I don't really have a problem with that either).

Gotcha, didn't know he was MAGA, but I guess in the end the best MAGA are the ones that keep it quiet. I didn't know those MAGA people existed.

between the state of kansas and the state of texas...one voted overwhelmingly for the people to get to retain the right to choose whether or not to get an abortion. the other state...knew better than let the people decide and the elected officials just pretty much completely outlawed it before the ink was try on the Dobbs decision.

but this is treading into pit territory so i'll leave it at that.

End of the day it's shitty timing cause Avery, but this was going to happen (and needed to happen) eventually. He'll be our head coach in 5-7 years and he needs to learn different styles and places and make some money along the way.

Just picking A&M is gross.

Klein was "counseled" about his twitter presence.

I think most of the teeth gnashing is about where he going. If he got the Boise State job people wouldn't have their dicks in the dirt, but Avery would still be tampered with.

ITT: Lots of proud bigotry.

Imagine believing in 2023 that there's a virtuous team and an evil team and not just a bunch of actors inspiring people to adopt dumb conflicting positions on issues that don't affect powerful interests so those powerful interests can keep strip mining the world for their own benefit!  LOL.  Rubes.

My view on CK's politics has been made clear and I'm not going to restate that here, he's gone, and I don't care. I will say this though in regard to your post. If your side, whatever it is, has a platform of restricting anyone's rights, that's inherently evil. People should always call that out, no matter the message board, topic, dinner party company, whatever.

CK leaving is fine.  If he poaches Avery, we riot.

Yea if he takes players/coaches with him we riot.

Yeah, Lil SF has an AJ signed helmet under the tree. If CK takes him and I have to give my kid an outdated gift, I'm going to be mad.

So he follows (followed?) a lot of good-hearted, wholesome people that are the antithesis of nazi "people." It's not like he followed a bunch of brown-shirt like ANTIFA or militant BLM supporters.
