JJT Quotes

I'm not the world's biggest JJT fan, but he had some nice soundbites (that hit a little close to home) in today's column (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent ... 11d35.html):

"Perhaps, if the Aggies' fan base stopped being so obsessed with every facet of UT's program and focused all of their energy and attention on improving their own program, they'd have better results. Or, maybe, they just need to fire Coach Fran. Or Les Koenning Jr. Or whoever put together a game plan that resulted in Jorvorskie Lane not carrying the ball in the first half. Ridiculous. "

"The flaw with that strategy is that Miami had way too much speed for the Aggies to consistently get outside and gain yards on the perimeter. An intelligent approach would've used Lane to attack the middle, sucking in Miami's defense, and then attack the perimeter"

"This is Coach Fran's fifth season. These are his recruits. This is his fault.
No acceptable excuse exists. It's time for Byrne to contemplate Coach Fran's future unless the Aggies are satisfied being wannabes."

I'm wondering if he did a "find and replace" from an SMU column for this column. :wink:
