Watched the Bjork press conference. Pretty entertaining. How he still has a job is beyond me. Fired Jumbo today at 9am and also fired his Athletic Director Football. He can follow Jimbo to Lamar University or Slippery Rock. Then they told the team, but they already knew, of course. Looks like Jumbo package didn’t even get to say goodbye, lol. Oh, well. Those players never learned how to execute anyway.
At least they can never take away the future championship trophy they gave Jumbo when he arrived. Even by the most Aggiest of standards, that is a profoundly dumb event that I still only half-believe actually happened.
The timing is very interesting. Is it to save as many recruits for the early signing day?
All coaches reach an age where the game passes them by. Jumbo was that guy, always thinking he just needed the right players to execute to make his offense a success, just like it was 10 years ago. Many Aggies noted that despite Petrino, the offense looked very similar to the one they’ve been running for years. That pretty much tells us that Jimbo and his ego wouldn’t allow any changes.
I’m gonna miss him. He’s probably my favorite coach. Watching his legendary press conferences was beyond entertaining. His lack of awareness to how he came across in them was really fun, too. Bye, Jumbo.
