Jimbo Fisher takes shot at Georgia after Dawgs tried to flip A&M QB commit: 'They're full of bull'
Despite a late push by Georgia, the Texas A&M Aggies were able to land 3-star 2019 QB Zach Calzada on Wednesday, signing him on Day 1 of the early signing period.
Though the Aggies managed to keep their commit and bring him to College Station, it’s clear that coach Jimbo Fisher isn’t happy with some of the things the Bulldogs were doing.
On Wednesday, during his press conference, Fisher took a little shot at the Dawgs, saying they’re “full of bull” when asked about the late push:
Jimbo, somewhat half-jokingly, on what he told Zach Calzada as Georgia made a late push: "Yeah, they're full of bull."

Of course, this is the way recruiting is these days, and Fisher has likely tried to flip commits at the last minute, too. Still, it’s clear this one ruffled his feathers a bit.
The Aggies got their man, though, so all is well in College Station.
LOL! Settle down, Jimbo. You can keep your 3-star QB. Kirby decided to take OSU’s 4-star QB instead.
If we wanted him we could have gotten him…
Whatever makes you feel better, no matter how ridiculously wrong it is.
we didnt even go full court press for this dude espiecially with plumlee and fields at the qb position already…
fields is gone dumba$$
how you know??? you going off of the Danny BOI???
He is on the transfer wire now… Do you really think he is going to stay with a team that gave him no chance to beat out the starter and made him a laughing stock by running him on a 4th and 11 fake punt followed up by the coach throwing him under the bus by Saying the play was there but he was to slow?….As soon as some major programs come calling he will be gone…. Honestly I hope he stays because if he does it will tear the QB room a part as Kirby tries to keep him happy…
Didn’t this dawgs idiot promise to leave the board after the SECCG?
They absolutely went all out to get Zach. That part isn’t exactly a secret. Lies were told and Zach didn’t buy it. You can believe it or not, but it won’t change the reality.
@Clemsontime im gonna apply logic here as something you clearly dont use. Hes still practicing with the team as we speak hes just “exploring options”
@Clemsontime why would he leave if hes still gonna sit out next year?
@Darviathar did you see the part where he agreed to it or nah?
Know your team. Fields is hone. By the way, UGA doesn’t always get what they want. Pretty sure they wanted to win the last 2 games against Bama.
If he get offered a chance to start he is gone..
So it was wrong when your school went after Jimbo who was under contract at Florida State? The irony… it burns.
Jimbo needs to grow a pair. He’d do the same thing if he had an opportunity.
You’re not paying attention. Nobody is upset about anyone trying to flip anyone. The methods used are often BS methods filled with falsities. UGA used these methods and Jimbo called them on it. That’s what you do when you’re keeping someone from flipping. People make way too much out of all this.
Pot calling the kettle black.
Leave it to Adam to not tell the full story. Jimbo isn’t upset that Georgia tried to flip his QB, he’s upset at the BS way they tried to do it. Luckily Zach saw through their nonsense and called them on it.
How did we try to do it exactly?
Go listen to the interview. It’s not UGA specifically, it’s the process of trying to keep a kid from flipping that Jimbo is talking about. Twitter and SDS blowing things out of proportion.
Oh, I thought you were accusing UGA of using sketchy recruiting tactics or something.
Yes, there’s nothing quite like a potential flip to wake up the media.
Oh poor Dumbo Fisher. Not at FSU anymore, moron. For somebody who covered up everything that Jameis Winston did is more than hypocrisy. And, just be clear, putting your name in the NCAA transfer portal does NOT mean you have to transfer. No different than juniors who get a draft assessment. Doesn’t mean they have to enter the draft.
Exactly. That guy abandoned his players and spurned the FSU fanbase because he took his foot off the gas in recruiting. It’ll happen again in a few years.
BS, your play didn’t work. Accept it and move on.
Coach needs to work on not sleeping around on his next wife. That seems to be one thing he fails at.
What happens when A&M can’t get over the hump the next few years? Jumbo bolts with his new A&M coed honey?
From the authority on NOT getting over the hump… shhhhh
Ouch…
His wife cheated on him not the other way around
Yeah-he’s a literal cuck
When I see someone use that term, I envision a 16 year old kid who thinks it’s cool he learned a new word.
Kirby is the coach I’m a huge fan of Kirby. Jimbo is in the sec now not the acc he’s got to work for it now.
I’m pretty sure someone who brings in the #3 class in the nation knows how to work for it.
Good Bulletin Board Material for 2019, when UGA dirt stomps the steers
Kirby being called out already by TAMU? Say it ain’t so.
Does the also ran in the SEC west have anything? I think not. TAMU will be better , but they will always be 2cnd best forever. Their not de-throning Bamer or LSU, the barn. How does 3rd place in the west sound? Trying to hep y’all out.
You do realize you’re team isn’t playing in the playoffs right? How does it feel to be an also ran yourself? Your post has no relevance to this topic.
Wow this is such an idiotic comment. For one, A&M was already 2nd in the West in Jimbo’s first year. Second, how is A&M behind LSU or the “barn”? We beat LSU this year with less talent and are trending way above Auburn now, we already should’ve beat them this year.
This whole thing is a bunch of SDS click bait. If you listen to the press conference, Jimbo is talking about how he counters some of the tactics used by teams trying to flip a recruit, and how he often responds to the player “they are full of bull”. It is not specifically calling out UGA, but the whole recruiting process.
I agree 100% the recruiting is a joke.
If you think Jimbo doesn’t negative recruit, you’re not paying attention.
He actually doesn’t use negative recruiting tactics many schools use. If you believe he does it’s you that hasn’t been paying attention. By all means let us know exactly what he has done that you consider negative recruiting. We’ll be waiting…
All the need to defend Kirby & Jimbo over a 3* recruit. Everybody points fingers as if their team isn’t guilty also.
Old Jimbo, I’ll let my QB steal Crab legs and act like it never happened Fisher. Is this the same Jimbo Fisher, who tried to flip Justin Fields from UGA? He is right about one thing. That was a dog and pony show, and Fisher was the ring leader. What will they say, when he runs A&M into the ground, too.
That’s what happens when you let your players get away with everything. Just like he did at FSU.
First of all he never said anything negative about Georgia here, just that what they were saying to flip him was all bull. If you know anything about recruiting you know that’s 100% correct 90% of the time. It’s part of the recruiting game and you guys are way too sensitive about this.
