I like to think of it as his sock he’s executing. I mean, it’s his own way of marketing, manufacturing drama, click bait right. Right? And it’s a good control, to keep most posters in line and drinking the kool-aid! All the while not killing the monthly subscription.

But, on the other hand, it is an aggy, so!

Has anyone spotted a "Petrino has forgotten more about offense than you'll ever know" texags post?  That line has to be on the bingo card for this.

The true red asses are implying that the Petrino-doubters are callow and jejune.  Of course, they're using words they understand, but you catch my drift.

The Pretender

 

Jackson Browne

 

I'm going to rent myself a house
In the shade of the freeway
Gonna pack my lunch in the morning
And go to work each day

And when the evening rolls around
I'll go on home and lay my body down
And when the morning light comes streaming in
I'll get up and do it again, Amen
Say it again, Amen

I want to know what became of the changes
We waited for love to bring
Were they only the fitful dreams
Of some greater awakening?

I've been aware of the time going by
They say, in the end, it's the wink of an eye
When the morning light comes streaming in
You'll get up and do it again, Amen

Caught between the longing for love
And the struggle for the legal tender
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
And the junk man pounds his fender
Where the veterans dream of the fight
Fast asleep at the traffic light
And the children solemnly wait
For the ice cream vendor

Out into the cool of the evening
Strolls the pretender
He knows that all his hopes and dreams
Begin and end there

ah, the lovers as they run through the night
(Leaving nothing) leaving nothing but to choose off and fight
And tear at the world with all their might
While the ships bearing their dreams
Sail out of sight

I'm gonna find myself a girl
Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each other's paint-by-number dreams

And then we'll put our dark glasses on
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
And when the morning light comes streaming in
We'll get up and do it again
Get it up again

I'm gonna be a happy idiot
And struggle for the legal tender
Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
To the heart and the soul of the spender
And believe in whatever may lie
In those things that money can buy
Where true love could have been a contender

Are you there? Say a prayer for the pretender
Who started out so young and strong only to surrender

Say a prayer for the pretender
Are you there for the pretender?
Say a prayer for the pretender
Are you there for the pretender?
Are you prepared for the pretender?

Olin. Oh, Olin.

Why I like the hire of Bobby Petrino as A&M's offensive coordinator

 

Quote

Seven more points. One more touchdown.

That would’ve been the difference in Texas A&M going 10-2 instead of 5-7 last season.

That’s why the hiring of a new offensive coordinator should be celebrated in College Station… regardless of identity.

That the identity is Bobby Petrino has opened up Texas A&M and head coach Jimbo Fisher for ridicule and scorn.

Frankly, that’s why I like the addition of Petrino.

Fisher knew Petrino’s hiring would be controversial. He knew hiring Petrino could elicit criticism from Paul Finebaum and other national media. Yet, he felt strongly enough about Petrino to make the move anyway.

Aggies should respect that. Too often, it seems, Aggies look to the media for approval and confirmation only to be met with double standards and dismissal.

Of course, national media will ridicule the Petrino hire. That’s what the media does when A&M is the subject.

That’s what the media did when A&M pursued Jimbo Fisher. That’s what the media did when Fisher angrily responded to Alabama coach Nick Saban’s unsubstantiated allegations about A&M buying recruits.

Petrino has given the media plenty of ammunition.

Yes, as offensive coordinator at Auburn, he conspired with boosters to take the head coach position away from Tommy Tuberville.

Yes, as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, he quit before the season ended to take the head coach position at Arkansas.

Yes, at Arkansas, he was involved in an illicit affair with a staffer he had personally hired.

That was 11 years ago.

Petrino paid his penance just as Auburn coach Hugh Freeze, LSU coach Brian Kelly and Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin paid theirs.

Petrino can coach offense. He’s a brilliant play-caller. He’ll have more overall talent with which to work than he ever did at Arkansas or Louisville. In four years at Arkansas, Petrino never had a recruiting class ranked higher than 20th. In nine years (two stints) at Louisville, his highest-rated recruiting class was 23rd.

A long-time friend close to the Arkansas program called Petrino an “evil genius.”

The genius is his mind for game-planning offense and maximizing the talent on hand. The 

evil part is his personality.

Kirby Clarke, TexAgs

Petrino most recently crossed paths with Texas A&M at the 2015 Music City Bowl, and led by Lamar Jackson, his Louisville offense racked up 534 yards vs. the Aggies.

Petrino is as cuddly as a cactus and has the disposition of a copperhead. He doesn’t like recruiting. Spending time with prospects and their parents was a laborious part of the head coaching profession to him.

But the guy can coach. He can take decent players and create an explosive offense.

In 13 seasons at Arkansas and Louisville, nine of Petrino’s teams ranked among the nation’s top 17 in scoring. Ten of his teams averaged at least 31.2 points per game.

Imagine what Petrino could potentially do with emerging quarterback Conner Weigman, a receiving corps that may include Ainias Smith, Evan Stewart and Moose Muhammad, big-play running back prospect Rueben Owens‍ and a more experienced, healthier offensive line.

Last year, A&M averaged 22.8 points per game. With Petrino’s influence, the Aggies will score more. Maybe much more.

If that happens, the Aggies could/should be legitimate SEC championship contenders in 2023.

Petrino isn’t the politically correct hire. A&M’s rivals just hope he’s not the right hire.

Yes. Yes. Jimbo knew he always wanted Petrino as his first choice, so he doggedly made his decision up front, day one, from the git-go and stuck by it despite all the other options available and begging to come to College Station like all sane people do.

Yes! Media mean to Mongo in game of life!

 

1. 

2. Yes, what must follow is his stellar career at his most immediate prior job which is why he must obviously be sought by many prominent football programs!

 

 

Or maybe not. But there's this:

Big expectations! Championship season! E'erbody scared! All aboard the rollercoaster!

I might think that Owen lays it on a bit thick, but nobody has ever gone broke doing that with the Aggies. I'd say he's the heir apparent to Luicci when sad, lovesick Billy makes a pilgrimage to ascend mighty West Mount Houston and endeavor to contemplate away his grief that Johnny won't hang with him anymore.

That Olin article is really a flawless piece of aggy pandering, like a Billy Liucci fever dream, hitting all the key points:

1. Media disrespect/conspiracy - Check

2. Finebaum dig - Check

3. “Unsubstantiated” accusations of paying players - Check

4. Overestimation of aggy talent - Check

5. Pretend 5-7 was actually almost 10-2 - Check

6. Setting up for SEC Champs in 2023 - Check

7. Rest of SEC is scared of sleeping giant - Check

Well played, Olin.

Our RB room will not be as good next year, but if we can improve in run blocking our running game can be just as good.  How many times did Bijan turn a terribly blocked play from a -2 to a +4 yd gain. If we can reduce those plays we'll be fine

[bad_teammate 13132]

Yes, because QB play is far, far more important than RB play. And RBs are more easily replaceable, even elite ones like Bijan.

From what I understand, Fisher's son has some illness that shortened his stature and will lead to premature death.  In that case, Fisher is going a great job fleecing the aggy and providing for his son, and doing whatever makes the young man happy.   From being involved in his professional life to letting him make whatever fashion choices he wants.    I would back off on making fun of the kid.   Heck, I celebrate Jimbo Fisher and his coaching.   I hope he does well enough this year so they give him another extension and then mails it in for the remainder of his contract.

[Jebus 1300]

I’m having some trouble understanding Olin’s contention that 7 points would make their record go from 5-7 to 10-2.  I’m sitting here trying to figure out how 7 points could convert 5 losses into 5 wins.  
 

Even if all 5 losses were by 1 point each, that means that 5 points are required just to convert them into 5 ties. So how does the remaining 2 points get you from 5 ties to 5 wins?  Are they able to use fractions of a point in their games somehow?  Anyway, their closest loss this season was by 3 points so it still doesn’t make sense.  
 

I guess he actually means 7 points in each of the 5 games, which would actually be 35 points?  They scored a total of 273 points during the season so in that case he’s asking them to increase their season scoring output by about 13%. In the 5 close losses they scored a total of 134 points, just under 27 points per game. So yeah if they had just scored 25% more points in those 5 losses they would have been 10-2 with losses to unranked Mississippi state and Florida. 
 

so close!  (To a season that still wouldn’t have justified their preseason ranking)
