message: I found this article that says an A&M game in 1921 was the first to ever have a radio play-by-play.  This ought to be incorporated into this article or the main Texas A&M Aggies article somewhere -- it's interesting. http://www.wtaw.com/history.php Karanacs 14:39, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Besides the color variation in the chart there is no mention(that I saw) of A&M wining the Championship, or anything mentioning how it was retroactively awarded in the 10's. Shouldn't there be some mention of this? Robhakari (talk) 06:30, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, that's because it wasn't retroactively awarded for 1917 and 1919 (two years in which A&M not only went undefeated and untied, but no team scored on them). in the 1920s-1930s was when the term "national champion" was first really used. If you have a source that states otherwise, please add it and BE BOLD!!!— BQZip01 — talk 06:37, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: A&M was retroactively awarded a 1919 national title by several selectors and there is some support of A&M as 1917 national champions. One of the original drafts of this page had all titles listed, but those two titles were later removed because A&M does not claim the 1917 or 1919 titles. I think it would be a good addition to the page to add that some selectors consider the teams national champions, but it would be important to clarify that A&M does not claim the titles (unlike programs like USC, which claims as a title anything that would remotely qualify.) -Texink[talk] 18:05, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Please see my comment below----this section is from an old discussion on the same topic.  And, no, the 2012 media guide only recognizes one national championship, and three other undefeated seasons.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 22:26, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

message: I hope I am doing this correctly, as this is my first attempt at posting something here at Wikipedia. 
I noticed that the Rivalries section included the Texas Longhorns, Baylor Bears, Texas  Tech, and Arkansas.  I was wondering why TCU, SMU, and LSU were left off the list. If the list is based on "football history," it would make sense to add them.
TCU - A&M has played TCU off-and-on since 1897, and played them last in 2001.
http://www.aggieathletics.com/sports/m-footbl/stats/tcu.html
SMU - Started playing SMU in 1916 and played them last in 2005.
http://www.aggieathletics.com/sports/m-footbl/stats/smu.html
LSU - A&M and LSU started playing regularly in 1899, and last played in 1995.

message: I would like to take out the line under "Bear Bryant's" section that says
 "Bryant attempted to integrate the all-white Texas A&M squad. "We'll be the last football team in the Southwest Conference to integrate," he was told by a Texas A&M official. "Well," Bryant replied, "then that's where we're going to finish in football."[39]
Although this is probably factually correct, I don't think it is relevant in today's times. It is actually embarrassing that Texas A&M had this position, as it applies. Mattscards (talk) 17:25, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

message: This tradition in the post Southwest Conference era ended up being applied to also former SWC rival Texas Tech during the Big 12 Conference era.  Unless the system has identified this as a form of "garment hazing" and forced it out of practice there is probably another Academic Institution on the Texas A&M football schedule where this tradition has continued (would need active student body member to verify).  Tradition may have also transferred into another sport given the chance to play either SMU, TTU, or other "cowboy-themed" systems at baseball, or basketball?

message: Okay, I'll lead off, then.
Setting aside the edit-warring, the facts are clear: the part about the history behind the football team is just a bit too long and unwieldy to be acceptable, in this editor's opinion, absent significant truncation or removal to another page. I would prefer that most, if not all, of it be moved to another page, regarding the Aggies football history, with a severely-reduced paragraph or so detailing when it was established, maybe some highlights regarding players and coaches, etc. At most, possibly two paragraphs, or three.
So, if I may, I'd like to hear my fellow editors' opinions on this issue.  Thoughts? — Javert2113 (talk) 02:57, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: What I would like to see (having tagged multiple History sections with the "too long section" template in multiple articles including this one), someone more familar and invested in this content port this article's History section to the new "History of" article w/ attribution and slim down all of the History sub-sections in this article.  It's a CFB project-wide issue and not specific to this article. While not a crisis, it's just at a tipping point for cleanup of over-large History sections and narrowly WP:RECENTISM issues on steroids. UW Dawgs (talk) 03:16, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The History section is too long, too wordy, and pays far too much attention to the past 15 or so years.  It could be whittled down to a useful size and stay right here.  JohnInDC (talk) 03:19, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: For instance.  Giving each coach a heading, even for a sentence of text, seems excessive.  Surely several of those can be collapsed into longer periods - it'd make the ToC look better and would also ameliorate the foolishness of describing two and three year coaching tenures as "eras".  And the season-by-season recaps for later coaches (including lists of defeated opponents) could be substantially shortened.  JohnInDC (talk) 15:34, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yes! I am a proponent of merging era sections specifically when they only contain a very limited tenure of a coach.  The convention seems to have evolved into "every modern coach gets a section," when the convention should be more focussed on eras.  I am going to drop off of this thread, as we're diverging into RECENTISM and project-wide issues.  Again, support consolidating the History in this aricle and port the "current" history to the new article w/ sourcing attribution. UW Dawgs (talk) 18:27, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

message: Jimbo Fisher was fired a few weeks ago (November 12th) and since then Mike Elko has been named head coach. The "Jimbo Fisher era" header under history still lists his end year as present, which probably needs to be changed, and no Mike Elko era header has been added (not sure if this should change before his first season begins?). 24.32.151.170 (talk) 05:05, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
