Texas AM proves this. They have more money than just about any school in the SEC yet they just lost to ole miss team that has WAY less money. Also no monies is nothing more than a excuse and excuses are for losers.

And is there a un written rule at State that says players shouldn?t take responsibility for their play on the field. Sure they are doing what they coached to do but personal fouls and blind side blocks on back to back weekends is majority on the players.

And this ghost of atheletic director needs to appear and tell the fan base something anything. Because the fan base is not happy right now. I pay a lot of monies for every home game for me wife kids and grandkids and have been at every home game this year. And I?m not happy with what I?ve seen and seriously doubt I?ll be doing the same next year. Fix it Selmon and no excuses just fix it.
Money buys players. We need money to buy better players instead of using all of our NIL funds to prevent other schools from cherry picking our current roster. Player retention is huge, however if you don?t have the ability to pay your current players plus go into the portal and buy players in positions of need your roster will never improve. Sure you could get lucky and sign som diamond in the rough high school kid but how many freshmen actually see the field?
