I thought TAMU had unlimited money?

If you remove the Covid year, Jimbo is 34-23 (17-19) at A&M. Wow.

he is actually a game behind Sumlin, even if you include the Covid year.

Sumlin went 51-26 (.662) at A&M. Jimbo currently actually has a worse overall winning percentage at .642 (43-24). In conference, Jimbo has been marginally better (.555 vs. .521).

Bruce Feldman said yesterday that A&M has the money to get rid of him.

Wow

I was thinking Petrino would move up...one of the talking heads suggested that some time ago.

They aren't spending a quarter of a billion dollars to hire Bobby Petrino.

But the offense is their problem. Why would they look at Petrine?

Sounds like the cheapest solution would be for Petrine to set him up with a blond coed and let Jimbo take her for a ride on the back of Petrino's motorcycle.

I love what’s been going on with aTm. I’ve no hatred for aTm at all, but I’ve never liked Fisher. I was glad when he left FSU. I’m not a fan of Petrino either.

Tam has been chasing the title since time began.
They are a middle of the road program, always were.
The Jimbo thing was stupid from the get go.

It just goes to show that hiring is hard. If all coaches make 1 million and yours makes 10 million then you can pick who you want. That’s not how it is. If the living people with national championships were always the best coaches you’d know who to pick. That’s not how it is either.

Hiring a head coach is kind of like drafting an NFL qb. It’s sort of a crapshoot. Past success isn’t always indicative of future performance.
