A$M beats UT in football 38 to 30.

Todays FW*Tele reports he spent an hour after the game telling his players....then announced his resignation in the press conference. He had a $8.5 million buyout but it was probably reduced because of the VIP connection, but the terms won't be announced until it is ratified by A$M board of regents.

A yet to be determined interim will handle the bowl game to come for the Aggies. His record at A$M was 32 wins and 28 losses.

At press conference lasted less than 3 minutes with prepared statements by Franchione and AD Byrne no questions were answered.

***********************************************************************************

That makes 3 schools in TX looking for coaches...SMU, A&M, Baylor....probably Nebraska...

I can see Missouri and other teams trying to steal away A$M commits....the papers (not today) have already mentioned Missouri going after A&M players.

      Caponi fired

      I understand that his decisions to go for it on 4th down so much or not to kick FGs or play the field position game are bad decisions. Just playing Devil's advocate. Could it be that those decisions stem from a lack of confidence in the defense? It feels like he believes he has to score TDs on every possession to win because the defense will not stop anyone. So, that takes me back to he should have never kept Caponi after year one.

      Ladies at ACU

      I went to the game, again we started slow and accelerated in the second quarter outscoring ACU 27-12. We let them back in it and the lead got down to three points twice. But we went on a game-sealing 11-0 run to take a 66-52 lead as Lampkin took over. One of ACU's starting bigs went out late with an apparent back injury. She's from Bixby, Oklahoma, which is where I've gotten my only speeding ticket, so maybe she deserved it. As for the arena, it shares the same name as SMU's (Moody Coliseum) and looks like a carbon copy of TCU's (albeit half the size). Recently renovated and very nice. The ACU men hosted TXST shortly after. Which we could get some better men's/women's doubleheaders and on the weekend to help boost the ladies' attendance.

      Next week's ECU game is our last chance this season to sellout DATCU Stadium

      Will Caponi and the dunk tank make one last appearance at DATCU this weekend?
