We can talk about the specifics of how the search happened but the point remains. You’re not getting any of the coaches that would align with people thinking that the A&M job is THAT great. Doesn’t that say something? People are coalescing around Jedd Fisch and a guy who hasn’t done anything but be a position coach?A&M hasn’t really relied on winning Texas head to heads for awhile now - and even with the advantage disappearing Sark wasn’t whipping a dead man in Jimbo.
And what you’re describing isn’t how this coaching situation really went down at all.
I've said repeatedly from the minute Jimbo was fired I didn't think this needed to be a GO STEAL SOME HUGE NAME situation.Who though?? Like a name
I'll flip this around ...We can talk about the specifics of how the search happened but the point remains.

He’s a UT fan. There’s a reason he speaks about the teams he does and how he does. I don’t think he means it as a troll though. I think he’s just blind to his own bias and often pretends to know what he doesn’t know. He says a lot of dumb and dated **** about CFB (and the NFL also tbh).Bomani's just bored and bumping his gums. He don't know **** beyond the normal Texas 8&4 troll.
He does this same thing once a year every year with A&M. Good for him, I guess, cuz he gets a lotta miles out of it.
Lanning and DeBoer are the obvious 2 off the top of my head. Young and pretty impressive already.I'll flip this around ...
Who's the guy A&M goes and steals from someone else right now that makes you go "ok yeah, that's a great job"?
He’s def trolling A&M fans and they take the bait every time. He doesn’t even root for Texas anymore.He’s a UT fan. There’s a reason he speaks about the teams he does and how he does.

Well ummm…. Ole Miss folks seem to be panicking abt Lane to A&M talk lol, not fans… staffLane only leaving Ole Miss for Florida if that opens up next year, he believes he can win it all there.
I’m curious who would A&M fans be excited about?
This is also true. Since Sumlin A&M has recruited regionally/nationally.I don’t even care about the recruiting point.
A&M hasn’t relied on Texas as its sole source of talent for a decade now.
Bomani’s just the normal Twitter CFB mouth breather “haven’t won ever so can’t win” kind of idiot.
Lanning, sure, but he's got a great job and a rumored massive buyout. DeBoer - I agree - but does he want to leave the PNW? He's home and he's built his entire career out there.Lanning and DeBoer are the obvious 2 off the top of my head. Young and pretty impressive already.
But if the job was that great wouldn’t there be more interest outside of pipe dreams? You have unlimited resources, 110k man stadium, and Jedd Fisch is a serious option to end up with? Whether it’s the boosters or something else about the school, there’s obviously a disconnect with who you think you are versus who you actually are.
Dude he's been begging for the job behind closed doors from the minute Jimbo got fired.Well ummm…. Ole Miss folks seem to be panicking abt Lane to A&M talk lol, not fans… staff
Those same folks have heard him basically say na im good on A&M and say Florida would be a nice spot for the future. We’ll seeDude he's been begging for the job behind closed doors from the minute Jimbo got fired.
I definitely don’t think that it has to be a mega successful sitting head coach. Your AD/boosters are the ones handicapping the search . I’m just saying that based on the parameters they’re setting on the search, it’s pretty obvious that the job isn’t that appealing to any current HC with much success. They were about to hire Mark Stoops, case in point.Lanning, sure, but he's got a great job and a rumored massive buyout. DeBoer - I agree - but does he want to leave the PNW?

And - for whatever it's worth - A&M has been operating on an accelerated timeline with a desire to be done with this thing by tomorrow... You're not pulling either of those guys out of playoff runs even if they're interested in other opportunities.
Oklahoma just opened and hired Venables.
Florida just opened and hired Napier.
Texas opened and hired Sark and we all LOL'd at it.
Florida State opened and hired Norvell who wasn't at a P5 gig.
Oregon hired Lanning with no HC experience.
Georgia hired Kirby.
This idea that it's gotta be a mega successful sitting head coach or the job isn't that good is just stupid, man. You're better than this.
"They" weren't about to hire Mike Stoops. Ross Bjork went rogue and tried to slam his buddy through the door.I definitely don’t think that it has to be a mega successful sitting head coach.

I don't love Lane because I just think he's a ****in' goober, but at this point it would be a hilariously funny end to this whole charade.Lane is looking for a new crop of sorority girls since he’s probably ran through Ole Miss’s already and a larger contract
But if the other option is hiring Jedd Fisch? ****, you might as well have hired Stoops."They" weren't about to hire Mike Stoops. Ross Bjork went rogue and tried to slam his buddy through the door.
He was told no on Stoops multiple times, by all accounts close to A&M.
Rooting for? Nah. ****** with Charlie, though.And if A&M fans are talking themselves into Fisch, why wouldn’t you just go get Drinkwitz? N41D
Sidenote, am I bugging or weren’t you rooting for Texas in the Strong era? What made you flip?
"Can you believe these guys wanna be better than 8-4? THE NERVE"Man, as much as y’all **** on the whole “Sumlin’s record vs. Jimbo’s record” after every quarter of a game, we’re now getting **** for NOT hiring a guy with a worse win percentage and a significantly worse (35-55) SEC record?
