Texas Aggie Research Paper

Since I was a child, I’ve been an NC State fan. Going to the women’s basketball games, men’s basketball games, and football most Saturdays was a family affair. Sometimes, I even think my first words were “Go pack!”. I had a little cheerleader outfit, sat sideline at the basketballs games and thought my calling was to be an NC State cheerleader at 5 years old. In middle school, I went to NC State basketball and volleyball camps. This love of NC State was one that united my whole family and brought us together during our busy schedules.

Washington whom taken over the reigns as the Aggies head football coach; has been the defensive coordinator for the Aggies and has establishes himself as on of the best defensive minds in all of college football. Since Washington’s arrival in 2012, the Aggies has never finished outside of the top 30 in total defense nationally. Even better, under Washington the Aggies defense has been no. 1 in the conference twice, has had the no.1 run defense four times and on two separate occasions the Aggies ended the season being the No.1 scoring defense . So for Washington, this Spring Game served as an opportunity to instill his mark on the team collectively, and to focus on player development.

The Houston Cougars were the darlings of the 2015 college football season thanks to their head coach Tom Herman, leading them to a 13-1 record and a Peach Bowl victory over the Florida State Seminoles.

Charles H. Martin wrote a compelling monograph about the journey of segregation in college sports. The book showed readers how the “color line” in college football, specifically in southern football, reflected the traditions and beliefs of southern society. The reader gets a glance into the complete segregation of college sports to the complete integration of all college sports. In the beginning, African American students could not play sports on all-white teams and they could not go to the same schools at white students or even drink from the same water fountain as white students. The reader gets to walk through the history of the integration of college sports with Martin to eventually see full integration.

It was September 17th, 2016. There I am sitting in the student section, next to some of the most school-spirited people I have ever seen in my entire life. Everywhere I looked, Syracuse fans were dressed in orange representing their school. I watched as students, and families, like I had mentioned were all gathered in this enclosed dome to celebrate the Homecoming Football Game on that surprisingly hot day in Syracuse, New York.

Texas a&m has many traditions, ones that include going to Kyle Field at midnight and sacrificing a small child in an opposing team uniform to appease the football gods….I mean…practicing our ever so grand yells, being super nice to people(so nice that our niceness can make people feel uncomfortable), putting current students at a&m through torture by making them stand all through out the football games we play while giving them a false sense of purpose by calling them the 12thman, calling our seniors elephants who are about to die and making them walk around campus remembering all the good or bad times they had ("aw yes! I remember this spot. It's where my girlfriend, who I was with since junior year in high school, broke up with me after

People knew the Aggies would be good but its safe to say they've exceeded expectations so far this season. With convincing wins over Iowa State, Baylor, Texas, LSU and Florida, they already look primed for a three seed or above in the NCAA tournament.

As I walk down music note road I listen to the delightful sound of the acoustic guitars playing one of my favorite songs. Everywhere I look I see amazing artists singing. The cars are made out of old musical instruments that play relaxing jazz. The beautiful blue beach sounds like classic pop music. I ask the dj to play a song and me and my friends dance. I walk home with my friend on the piano sidewalk and look at the gorgeous guitar trees blooming in the spring. I pick the flute flowers and make a buckeye. I say hello to everyone walking by and give the buckeye to my friend. I look around this beautiful town and think I'm the luckiest person in the world. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. Then I walk to music school. At school we learn

A recent breakthrough had happened during the winter of 1875 as a indian tribe the Sioux tribe had came into white settlers territory and raided the whole place. How did this all happen? We had many Interviews and discussion from many perspective point of view about the Longhorn Bighorn. As white settlers came into Dakota and Montana a tribe of indians the Sioux tribe was already there. the Whites began to preclude the Sioux tribe out of the land and putting them in Indian reservations.

Sustaining the ambitions of not only themselves but the alumni and town of Odessa, Texas is a lot to ask from a young adult. That’s exactly what Permian football provides to the people of Odessa, where the post economic boom of the oil business has left the town in a racially tense, economic crisis. The lights on Permian High School’s football field are the only sanctuary for the west Texas town. Socially and racially divided, Odessa’s mass dependence on high school football constructs glorified expectations for the football team to temporarily disguise the disappointments that come with living in a town tagged as the “murder capital” of

My state is Texas. It makes up 1/12 of all of America's land. It joined the union December 29, 1845 making it the 28th state to join. It is also known as the Lone Star State. But it got its name from the Indian word ‘tejas’ which means friend.

When I was asked to take a picture of something on Centenary campus that was meaning full to me,the first idea that that came to me was Centenary wrestling All-American trophies. Centenary wrestling has 9 All-Americans. To become a All-American you must “buy in to the program”. Buying in to the program is a saying Coach Garrquies tells all of his

BOOM! I was scared to tears the first time I visited the campus of Virginia Tech. I was four years old. As the marching band played, I held my father’s hand and walked into Lane Stadium. And then it happened. BOOM! The cannon blasted marking the touchdown in the opening minutes of the game as we walked by. I jumped and I may have cried, but it is a memory of pure excitement. Being a Hokie means I will make new life-long memories.
