Battered Aggie syndrome
The amount of money I have donated to Aggie athletics with absolutely no ROI has jaded me and quite a few others. I’ll never stop rooting for them but I have lowered my monetary and emotional investment. The decision makers, athletic department and BORs seem to have made coaching there difficult. I think it’s a culture problem. There’s way too many chefs in the kitchen and they try to satisfy and please too many people.
In fact, after hearing coach Sampson speak this week about the request he made and how he works with the university president and athletic department about his needs being met early on and His tenure, I know Texas A&M has many issues up top.
