Again, I think you all need to refer back to #49. This is nothing more than a Texas-Texas A&M rivalry thing. From Wikipedia: It is also (according to the same article) the only rivalry ever honored with a special Wheaties box. You can bet that if it was the A&M coach who did not know how to swing a sledgehammer you would not be having this conversation. We just recently renovated all of our football facilities. Kevin Sumlin doesn't go for cheap stunts like trying to demolish a locker with a sledge hammer. Sumlin is actually masterful in his use of social media. If you demolish the facilities you currently have in such a manner, you're sending the message that the facilities your current and former players had last year is worthless. Sumlin understood the subtleties of such messages. When we renovated our football complex upon his arrival, he referred to it as 'just touching things up here and there'. A&M offers a Construction Science degree, you can be sure that if they had wanted to stage such a display, they would have made sure ahead of time that the person swinging the hammer knew what he was doing.

Good job proving that this entire thread is NOT about getting in a slam at a rival school and it's coach!
