Costas: Tell me what it was like in these agriculture classes.
Wright: Um at certain classes, you'd see, you know, a quarterback, me, a runningback, and then a farmer. Heh. So, it, it definitely was a little bizarre, but we're all in poultry science for a reason. We're in this class 'cause we need to get this grade, we're not really tryin to learn about chickens.
I know at least 7 aggies who took chicken science myself.
-crops need leadership too
Poultry Sciences have been on the cutting edge of leadership development for years
geez...
Haha, Texas A&M is a joke.
watch it, for brains.
Oh, are you a collie humper?
Sorry I hit a nerve on your school there.
no, beef is whats for dinner. the fact that wright said this about A&M doesn't really mean anything. in fact, A&M graduates more athletes than t.u. does, or at least they did the last #'s i saw. although, its not surprising that some athletes might get it easier...that probably happens at any/every school.
...i just can't believe he said that.
Why did you compare Texas A&M to Tulsa? Anyway, i'm sure every University does it to some extent, but it's fun to make fun of when someone comes out like this.
let's wait till mack's recruiting class graduation numbers come out. i'm not saying that they will be better then a&m's, but it's somewhat skewed thanks to mackovic. it's no excuse really, but a lot of players left and ed the percentage up.
A&M needs to graduate more athletes... because they need to be doing something while they aren't winning on the football field.
Right, A&M is the only school in the country where athletes take easy majors
I'm sure the general studies and african american studies programs at UT are brutal
let us all be mature here
obviously this takes place at every school
but the fact that this guy comes out and says it (betrays his precious tradition of extra men on the playing field) is funny and scoffable.
Let us also not forget he talked about POULTRY SCIENCE class at an agriculture and mechanical school. He was a former agriculturer himself, although he was not planning to be an agriculturer for life. So his classes were asanine. And THAT is funny as !
I saw a longer interview with Antoine where he talked about all of it being a joke but changing around under Billy. It's a good thing reporters don't have agendas and never edit interviews to fit their agenda.
...and yet, t.u.'s track record is much worse than A&M's when it comes to athletes and academics.
you think thets bad
rememba when cedric benson pulled a Kick Door on the niggz that stole his Plasma TV and then got caught with a gun
at least UT players always keep one up in the chamber, agg players go to poultry science class and shoot the with farmers
..costas should be fired, lol.
JGW did you take Poultry Science at the atm university?
no. i took calculus, chemistry, history, political science, nutritional sciences, another history course...mmm, and after that i cannot remember.
...oh, and i also took some type of Ag sciences course, but it was required and only 1 credit.
...and econ and finance...
how so? i'd say that THE university of Texas' track record is pretty good.
let me reprhase that...
it's pretty good when compared with a&m's. they're practically identical.

It's pretty dumb to say one school is better than the other as far as academics go. They're essentially equal. Kermit's hit it on the head already.
i'll have you know my human sexuality class at UT in spring of 1998 was less than 25% athletes!!Right, A&M is the only school in the country where athletes take easy majors
I'm sure the general studies and african american studies programs at UT are brutal
but but TUs players have easy classes too!
