A&M coach admonished for producing secretive newsletter

Seems folks at Aggie High are hacked at Fran .... just like the fans at New Mexico, Froggie High, Bama, and now presumably A&M. Let the good times roll.

Coach Fran and Aggy were made for each other. They'd be foolish to let him go.

Uh, they are in first place in the Big 12 South. FranFran could probably get drunk at a strip club, run over somebody on the way home and still keep his job right now, especially if they find a way to beat SandAggy this weekend. If they were losing he would already be gone.

If they are in contention for the South trophy and beat UT again this year, Fran stays. In fact if they only won one more game this year and it was UT, Fran stays. They like coaches who can beat the Whorns. BTW are there any Strip Joints in Bryan/College Station?

I disagree, even with the win at OSU aggies that I have been talking to are still upset. They feel like they have decreased in stature since his arrival. One guy I talked to was particularly frustrated because he thinks that they used to be on a level with LSU, UT, and OU, and now they have been left behind by those schools. He sees it as Frans fault.

Yeah, they beat two bottom dwellers in the Big XII, so color me unimpressed at the moment. If they beat Sand Aggy I might start giving them some respect. However, they lost badly to Miami and have only beaten teams whose average ranking is in the 70's (and granted UT isn't doing much better). Honestly, I don't see them winning the Big XII this year. Oklahoma should take care of that role again, unfortunately.

Only ones involving sheep.
