  1. No, no, no. No can do. "Gentlemen's agreement", sir. aggie out front should have wailed it to you.
  2. The good news is that it is moving on the calendar further from Thanksgiving and closer to Spring Break.
  3. Probably not much better, but the Texas Athletic Department doesn't have an outstanding debt to the Academic side that is 10 years old and has a much better balance sheet.
  4. 1. Jimbo is as stubborn and arrogant as any coach still employed. 2. They have ZERO negotiating power to make him "take a step back" because they gave him the worst contract in the history of contracts.
  5. I am bored this morning so I looked this up. Fran's buyout was $5M, but negotiated down to $4.4M. Sherman's was $5.8M negotiated down to $2M. Sumlin's was $10.4M and negotiated down to ...drum roll.... $10.4M, with no offset and had to be paid within 60 days. Jimbo's is obviously $9M per year remaining on the contract with no negotiation for buyouts. John Sharpe is just doing a heck of a job as the Athletic Director, Fuhrer, School President over there. I hope he stays forever.
  6. I love that so many of them still haven't made the connection between their lack of depth at pretty much every position and Jimbo's recruiting. They still parrot what a great recruiter he has been since he arrived but they have gaping holes everywhere on their roster.
  7. Just saw a screenshot from an aggie forum from a game prediction thread for their game against MSU this weekend. "Jimbo Fisher: $9 Million. A&M: 0"
  8. It could be worse. They could ask him if he wanted to be "an aggie, or a blaggie?"
  9. Olin, would you say that he is "on the precipice" of being an NFL player?
  10. If they can just get everyone in the stands to squeeze their nuts hard enough, King can be back by next week.
  11. Give it till Friday and Sharp will have him back in line and shilling praise to the masses that everything is fine. That sideline pass don't come free looch. You've got to do your bosses bidding like the bitch you are. When he tells you to get on your knees you better start sucking.
  12. I know people keep bringing this up, but what has Jimbo done in the last 7 years that would even make LSU pick up the phone and call him? Much less try to match/beat $9M/per that a&m is paying? Don't get me wrong, if LSU came calling, Jimbo would be a fool not to answer, simply because he has quickly worn out his welcome in College Station and his roster is falling apart in front of him and the fanbase is turning. But why would LSU call a guy that has been given a blank bag checkbook and every single advantage he could muster and is still trotting out the same shit that got him run out of Tallahassee? His team is regressing, his offense is archaic, and if there is any team in the Country that now understands the importance of upgrading your offense to this century, it is damn sure LSU. So what would be LSU's reason to want him? The way this board contorts between "Jimbo sucks " and "LSU is gonna steal him" is quite perplexing.
  13. Billy, you can pick one, or the other, but not both.
  14. Can I throw out a guess that Blake is white?
  15. Yeah...a couple more losses and the team will quit, the fans will be calling for everyone's head, Jumbo will double down on being an asshole, their recruiting will tank and they will still be left with a $90M tab. You really just hate to see it...
  16. It's almost as if there is some sort of...pattern....
  17. Does anyone know how much buyout the aggies have paid their last 4 coaches?
  18. Aggies have scored one td in 57 minutes. They can’t score two more in 3 minutes. Calzeda will throw the pick trying to hurry.
