Not sure if serious, but a vast majority of students haven't been "farmers" for a long time. It's just tradition.

I am genuinely impressed by the decision to go with the hyper modern vibe which was very well done; however it stands in stark contrast to A&M's conservative no-frillz farmer culture.

That said, Mack Brown basically built these facilities by not recruiting Johnny Manzeil. Now if Johnny had played for UT under Brown, he would have likely been a bust because Mack is great at destroying talent, but it would have at least kept the Aggie donors uninspiried.

Aggie donors are always chomping at the bit to fork over cash, dunno about that.

Yeah, I guess it is kinda strange to exit the all flash locker rooms and go out into the old school, traditional feel of Kyle Field.

Recruits will love them though.

So all the barns leading to college station will still say whoop?
Ya kidding...

The glitz does not fit the preferred culture.
And I fully realize the school is not full of farmers.
Do they let girls in yet?

Still a first rate looking 5*hotel/athletic complex.

LOL my office is pretty damn old. But I've also got a 10th floor view where I can see Kyle Field. Most of our building is old.

That being said, there are a lot of really nice rooms and building all over campus.

I thought the "Houston Hand Sign" used the thumb and pinky to avoid being confused with the Hook Em Horns sign?

Nah that sign is for Houston and the L sign is for Louisiana. A&M is huge in trying to recruit Louisiana right now.

they say the hook em is supposed to be "H-town" and guns up is "Louisiana"

about as clever placement as the aggie who decided routing I-35 through the middle of Austin was a good idea

But if it's good enough for the #1 2015 QB in the country, what do I care? I wont be using those facilities any time ever.
