Agreed with CowboyIndian -- football is the primary religion at A&M (don't let anyone convince you otherwise).  As bad as their AD/management is, they sure funnel a lot of resources into football.  The kids there didn't go there to play school, as Cardale Jones succinctly put it.  Competing with kids who don't treat academics with respect is very tough.

I have to remind myself that a decent QB would probably be a +2 or +3 win improvement over this team's eventual record.  I don't think Taylor needs to publicly throw his kids under the bus, but he doesn't have a guy yet.  Hope his staff is recruiting hard.
