It shows they played a weak schedule. You play the likes of Kansas, Texas Tech, etc. The whole conference hangs on to texas “almost” beating LSU, whereas they only won 1 bowl game.

Guess you haven't seen A&M's OOC for next season. 😂😂😂

Then there's Arky, Vandy, USCe, Ole Miss and MSST 😂😂😂

For what they invest into FB: facilities, Jimbo. Their ROI is sub-par so far. Funny that since A&M and Mizzou joined SEC, Mizzou has had more relative success. This is put up or shut up year for Jimbo. He was hired to beat Bama and LSU. Problem is, in addition to Bama and LSU, Auburn is a better program.

Jackie Sherrill cheated his arse off while in Collie Station but never rivaled what Jimbo just did.

Depends on what you mean by "hot seat." If you mean the coach is at serious risk at getting fired, no. If you mean admin/boosters start chirping, I'd say that's probably happening already.

I don't think it's reasonable to expect him to win the West next year, but I think it is reasonable to expect him to win some of these big games. The Auburn and Georgia games were totally winnable for them this year. Defenders of Jimbo are really quick to say "...But the losses were all to top 10 teams!" which is totally true. The problem is that they aren't paying him $7.5m/year and $75m guaranteed to win all the games they "should" and lose all the games to really good teams. He's got to start winning some of these big games against great teams.

The biggest red flag with Jimbo this past season was how Mond regressed. I thought Mond had a much improved 2018 season and was looking for more of that this year, but I don't know what happened. Jimbo is supposed to be really good with QBs.

The schedule softens up for them next year. Clemson and Georgia get replaced by Colorado and Vandy. They get LSU at home, but Auburn and Alabama are on the road. It's fair for their fans to expect to go 10-2 next year and get into the Sugar Bowl or something like that.

Give it about four or five more decades. You'll never understand it but at least you'll get to witness it!!! 😂😂😂

TAM reminds me of Auburn. They are number 2 in their state. But every few years they beat number 1. The happens to join the SEC when the West is at the peak. They will be number 3 for a few years. Not sure if Jimbo will survive that.

Crazy that some people put them up there with Alabama and LSU when they haven’t even won the division yet.

Heard the same thing back in the SWC days.

Look at the recruiting before Jimbo. Constantly in the teens. Look at it now. Top 4-6. #3 in 2019. #6 in 2020. It’s not about the X’s and O’s It’s about the Jimmy’s and Joe’s.

Jimbo has never really impressed me as a head coach. As a recruiter, he's phenomenal. He's entering year three at A&M with one of the biggest salaries in the nation. They don't seem to have made any strides at QB. A&M has probably invested more money into facilities than any other team in the nation in the last five to ten years. If I'm an Aggie, I'd be pretty pissed if he's not winning the West next year. What's the board's outlook on Fisher? If he doesn't win the SECw next year, should his seat be hot? Can his seat even be hot with the ludicrous contract he received?

Stutters more than Joe Biden.

Weak out of conference schedule that looks like he's trying to save his job or make people think they are better than they are.

They have six probable wins right off the bat:

Abilene Christian
North Texas
Colorado
Fresno State
Vandy
USCe

Then there is MSST, Ole Miss and Piggy all with new coaches.

So probably 7 automatic wins. Wow. How does that never happen to us

Considering where our program has been for the last 12 years I have to wonder why anyone would be critical of aTm? Why is this even a discussion on here?
