Clemson suing ACC, joining Florida State as second program to sue conference
CrankE for…the…win!
Dagnabbit! Whippersnappers’ll be the death of us all.
Is calling “Harbaugh’s hold and impact on the team” “inedible” a reference to something or is calling someone’s significant impact unfit to be eaten a new thing?
Hayes: With Nick Saban retiring, only 1 coach is capable of replacing the GOAT: Lane Freakin’ Kiffin
Instead of Kiffin, there’s another Saban disciple (first to beat him as a matter of fact) who’s out of a job…
The irony of an UGA calling people rednecks is awesome!
They did talk to Stoops, no one with any sense denies it. Social media reaction had nothing to do with the decision NOT to hire Stoops. As I understand it, Fisch was the guy proposed to and approved by the A&M Board of Regents on Wednesday. Suddenly, the AD is talking to Stoops (with whom he has a previous relationship) without the knowledge of the BoR. Suffice to say, and understatedly so, the Regents were unhappy with Bjork's decision.
The AD at A&M had a very clear and publicly stated timeline to get a coach in place before the transfer portal opened.
Is Elko the right hire? Time will tell. I'm happier with him than I would be with Stoops.
Didn’t Prnn State win the B1G championship a few years ago and get left out so tOSU could go to the playoffs instead?
What bayou tiger said.
The “he gets A&M” has to be one of the dumbest criteria for picking a coach. Familiarity with a program says absolutely nothing about a candidate’s ABILITY to coach.
Is familiarity with recruiting the state a plus? Absolutely. The rest of it is useless.
I agree with “I wouldn’t consider anyone that hasn’t recruited.” I also agree with “the ‘reaching out is for show.’”
I think the concern wasn’t about losing the locker room, the concern is/was about losing steam with recruiting.
I don’t think they have the next coach lined up, but I’ll bet they have a high-quality Target #1 and are working hard to both get him and keep it extremely quiet.
Truthfully, the typo was actually pretty accurate.
LOL. Who the hell voted for us?
I concur. Whether Elko would be worth a shot, I don’t know. Whoever’s up next better not get a guaranteed contract. I’d like to see someone get a reasonable base salary with the incentives to potentially double it.
Yup. No more guaranteed contracts, I say.
I have no idea who the potential replacement should be. I’d like to think Elko (and he’d be my pick) would do well here, but I think the Aggies are just cursed.
LOL! You don’t know our boosters. Good Bull Hunting had a pretty good article about Fisher’s payout breakdown. It’s still an awful lot of money, but only 20% is owed within 60 days of termination. The rest gets paid out in equal installments over the remainder of the contract term.
Through 65 games, and that’s not counting the last two losses, Fisher is one game worse than Sumlin.
I’ve been watching Aggie football for a very, very long time (Pop took me to my first game when I was 6 months old; I’m 51 now *many sighs*). I’m convinced of 3 things:
1) the Aggies are the Chicago Cubs of college football. I don’t expect to see the Aggies win a National Championship until at l at least 2047.
2) College Station is where coaching careers go to die. Want to expose a coach? Send him to College Station.
3) we have the dumbest, most desperate boosters in college football.
Until we approach this problem intelligently, we’ll never be successful.
Still gonna do yard work.
I hear you. I’ll be doing yard work and checking my phone periodically. If we win I’ll watch the replay, if we lose…well…at least I didn’t have to watch.
UK vs. A&M in the SECCG. We will know the end times have come if this happens.
I predict a 12-9 game in a tossup against Bama. I don’t think either offense is good enough to do much against the other’s defense.
Pffft. I gave up on this season when Amari Daniels fumbled at the end of the 3rd quarter against Miami.
I’ve been following Aggie football for 50 years. Giving up early in seasons is the only way for me to maintain hope for “next year.”
If the party has nothing to do with Aggie football, I’m a delight.
Why wouldn’t he use what he knows to help out his current team?
Noah Thomas doesn’t even get an Honorable Mention? 3 great TD catches and nothing?
That “?” was supposed to be a laughing emoji. Guess I’ve earned a “D’oh!” *facepalm”
D’oh! Troll then lose. ?
The ‘sips must always lose.
I’m not getting a whole lot of joy out of this season. Right now, the longhorns losing is about all I’ve got.
Trust me on this, one win over Bama means nothing and says nothing about the direction of your program.
That being said, great win tonight!
