FYI, sent to me by friend. Might add kicking thugs off team if arrests Wednesday (2 players suspended indefinitely = Babalola & Joiner) prove as bad as they seem. No place for that but every school deals with this stuff at one time or other. I trust Sherm to handle it quickly. Even Penn State under Joe Pa has had some troubles. Book 'em Horns too & others. Enjoy.
Subject: Top 10 Tips for Coach Sherman
Welcome back to Aggieland Coach Sherman, we're glad to have you. As a welcoming gift, here are 10 tips for success any Texas A&M football coach should hear.
10. Don't make a secret newsletter that gives inside information in exchange for money.
9. Yell when the referees make a bad call - Aggie fans want to know that you care about what's happening on the field. Smirking with your arms folded is not considered emotion.
8. Don't lose to Baylor. This has happened once in recent history and losing to Baylor is like being in the hospital - everybody wants to know what's wrong with you.
7. Remember: A field goal is only worth three points.
6. Small, unheard of, nonconference schools should not make up more than a third of your win total.
5. Don't lose to Oklahoma 77-0. That tends to get our football program quite a bit of bad press.
4. Create a playbook with multiple pages. While a single sheet of paper is handy on the sideline, the Aggies could benefit from a broad range of plays.
3. When Jorvorskie Lane is all over national sports outlets, he should be getting some serious playing time. This means more than two carries in a game.
2. When we are down by four points at the end of the fourth quarter, please don't kick a field goal (see tip No. 7).
1. For the love of God, beat Texas Tech.
Aggie fans across the country are looking forward to some good years with you. Hopefully, the next chapter of A&M football will elevate the program to new heights. We're more than ready to see the Shermanator in action.
