College Station’s mayor won’t let Will Muschamp’s comments about her city die

The Texas A&M Aggies really want the members of their new league to like them, especially Florida coach Will Muschamp.

While speaking to the Polk Count Gator Club last month, Muschamp didn't exactly endorse tourism in College Station, Texas.

"You ever been to College Station?" Muschamp asked the crowd. "It'll be the only time you go."

While Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin fired back by saying Muschamp needs to concentrate on his own team, College Station Mayor Nancy Berry took a more lighthearted approach.

She posted a video on YouTube talking about Muschamp's comments and then inserting different shots of Muschamp into various places in College Station. One even depicts him as an A&M Yell Leader. Then she offers to send Muschamp a gift basket to make sure the two can be friends as the Aggies head into their first year in the SEC.

This is one of those stories that will not die.

Muschamp made an innocent comment and now Texas A&M can't move on. Move on, Texas A&M, move on.
