At one time , Coach Fran was coach at Alabama during the probation period. Did not even start any games. He got a call from the Aggies and in the middle of the night went to Texas A&M to coach there...Skip..Be reading Sports Illistrated....

I'm still kinda fuzzy on this whole "gig 'em" thing. Is it better to be the gigger or giggee?

Sorry jdigiant - here is the official story of the beginning of Gig' em:

"Blame it all on an Aggie named Pinky Downs. A 1906 Texas A&M graduate, Downs was a member of the shcool's board of regents from 1923 to 1933. He was the kind of Aggie who wore a maroon tie every day and who prodded the school into spending an extra $10,000 so that its new swimming pool would be longer than the one at the University of Texas. When the Aggies had a yell practice before the 1930 TCU game, Downs naturally was there. "What are we going to do the those Horned Frogs?" he shouted. His muse did not fail him. "Gig 'em, Aggies!" he improvised, appropriating a term form frog hunting. For emphasis, he made a fist with his thumb extended straight up. The Southwest Conference had its first hand sign." from Paul Burka at Texas Monthly.

So Gig' em is a ralley cry, instead of yelling Go Aggies - we yell Gig' em Ags. If they score or win - then we add a WHOOP to the end.

My son and I have tickets to the Big 12 Championship game in KC. My son graduated from UT. We are still going but with our head down and by default will root for Nebraska. Temp high in the high 30's, low in the 20's
