Watch: New Aggie Football S&C Coach previews what’s in store when he takes over

New Texas A&M football S&C coach, Tommy Moffitt sits down with the Host of SNAPS to talk ball and what he can bring to Aggieland

New Aggie Football coach Mike Elko is slowly assembling his staff with a mixture of Duke assistants, current staff, and poaching from other programs. A huge position of need was an upgrade to the teams’ health as, over the Jimbo era never seemed to keep his top contributors on the field.

In the early days of the Elko, takeover rumors swirled that he would bring lauded Duke Strength and Conditioning coach David Feeley, which was well received. We found out very shortly after that report that Feeley, in fact, was not going to follow Elko to Aggieland.

That “loss” led to the hire of long-time LSU strength coach Tommy Moffitt and has been seen as a homerun hire that should pay off immediately. Moffitt recently sat down with SNAPS host Aaron Murray and T-Bob Hebert to discuss what he’s been up to and how to take A&M to the next level.

NOTE: There are some swear words used during the interview. So, take caution if listening out loud.

Former Georgia QB Aaron Murray ignores recent stats, states that Texas A&M is ‘forever Texas’s little brother’

Former Georgia QB Aaron Murray proclaims that Texas A&M will forever be “Texas’s little brother,” despite what the recent stats say.

Here we go again, folks! With one more season remaining ahead of the revitalization o the Lone Star Showdown between Texas A&M and Texas during the 2024 college football season, trash talk has made its way outside of the rivalry beltway, as former Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray is now siding with the Texas Longhorns, who despite 14 years of underwhelming play on the gridiron, still reign supreme when comparing both programs.

In a recent podcast episode of “Snaps with Aaron and T-Bob,” Murray’s conversation with former LSU Center T-Bob Hebert took an interesting turn when Murray flat-out stated (while ignoring recent statistics) that Texas A&M will forever remain Texas’s little brother from now on.

Texas A&M will never own Texas. They will forever be viewed as the little brother in the state of Texas. Regardless of where the programs are, they will always be viewed as the little brother in the state.

If we compare the recent performance of each program in the 2022 season, the Longhorns’ 8-5 record is better than A&M’s 5-7 showing. However, as Hebert pointed out earlier this week, Texas A&M has a solid overall record of 106-58 since 2010, with a 7-4 record in 11 bowl games over 13 seasons. They have also won two NY6 Bowls (the 2012 Cotton Bowl and the 2020 Orange Bowl). On the other hand, Texas has done most of its damage in the Big 12, compared to A&M leaving for the SEC in 2012. They have gone 91-72 overall, with a 6-3 record in nine bowl games over 13 seasons, including one NY6 Win against Georgia in the 2019 Sugar Bowl. (“We’re back!)

Nevertheless, Texas’s entry into SEC for the 2024 season and beyond should begin to settle the score between both programs soon enough. Still, as we know, the Twitter battles and podcast hot takes will never cease to continue because that’s what rivalries are made of in the 21st Century.
