They got lucky this year in a way. Their run defense is good and their pass defense is absolutely awful but there aren't many decent passing teams on their schedule.

It makes it kind of funny when their fans claim they'd beat Oklahoma but whatever.

But jimbo knows he’s got at least 5 years before aggy could even think of firing him, so he’s in no hurry to win.  Probably more like 7 years really. He can just work on his roster and wait for the 2019 and 2020 classes to be ready to go. If he’s not winning big in 2022, he won’t ever be winning big there. 

Thats what aggy paid for, right?  Results in 5 years?

True, but the issue he'll run into will be sustaining recruiting classes if he's not winning starting next year, which will then prohibit winning in 2022. This is the same do or die situation Herman is in this year. Thankfully he is "doing".

The best part's going to be this coming offseason.  However many wins Herman gets this year they'll think Jimbo will top it his 2nd year compared to Herman's.

They also got Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, and LSU, so 8-4 is their ceiling assuming they win every other game.

The latter three are all on the road too. They won't be able to hold their way to a win or moral victories in those.

If he's not "winning" they will just start paying more for more recruits. It's not going to end well for them.

Herman won’t take that lying down. 

Excited boosters are engaged boosters. Beating OU and being ranked in the top ten gets fans excited.

Also, I think Jimbo will do well, but the idea that he's going to take over Texas is silly. Tom has the better program with better history at a better University in a better city.

Aren't they all somehow a top 25 player at aggy? I mean All-District awards aren't handed out to just anyone.

Even out of state aggy commits make the looch 44.  See Kelen Mond.

Woah. Can’t believe Parker is out. If I remember correctly he was a Billy Looch top 25 player in his top 44.

I just googled it. He had Parker rated 18th in the state. That's a big loss.

ag board making a list of attrition candidates ::

My list of attrition candidates: 
QB Blumrick 
QB Nick Starkel 
WR Aaron Hansford 
WR Klyde Chriss 
WR Hez Jones 
WR Keynel McZeal 
RB Deneric Prince 
RB Jacob Kibodi 
OL Riley Anderson 
DE Ondario Robinson 
DE Camron Horry 
DB Montel Parker (Gone) 
DB Roney Elam 
DB Myles Jones 
DB Antonio Howard 
DB Devin Morris

I would subtract Hez and add Prater, Rogers,Moton, Diesch, Pryor and McCollum

 

that would put a lot of the 2019 guys right into the depth chart ...

Their defense will be really young next year. They lose 3/4 starters on the DL. Their best LBer in Alaka. Dodson could be gone too at LBer dependent on where he's projected to be drafted. They lose a couple SRs in the secondary. Then the rest of their secondary sucks so a lot of those young guys will likely come in and get reps. 

This is why I'm confused A&M isn't hitting the JUCO market. They probably need some experience at all 3 levels of the defense coming into next year. Texas has realized that at DE/LB. Maybe A&M will eventually see the light.

Moorhead loved Parker who had an amazing sophomore year but didn't have a good junior and senior year where he spent most of his time either injured or at QB. Taking guys too early that aren't can't miss elite guys isn't a good practice imo. Something to watch for 2020

Chibuzo. Bankhead. Jefferson. Ogunbiyi. Welp, that's a good start. 

Demas for as long as he's an Aggy commit makes it 1 of 5.

Jimbo seems to be hitting it off with the faculty.  Here's a lovely piece contributed by Arnold Luenes:

 

Recent events involving A&M's head football coach and one of his top players has prompted this letter.
As an Aggie (Class of 1960), collegiate athlete, sports psychologist, and 53-year faculty member, I am appalled at the behaviors displayed by Coach Jimbo Fisher, who has a decade-long history of coddling an assortment of sex offenders, felons, miscreants and ne'er-do-wells while at Florida State. Twenty-nine of his players were arrested during his 10-year tenure there. Sports analyst Mike Rosenberg has studied university athlete arrests over a recent five-year period and found that Florida State was number 10 on the list (A&M was third). As he further indicated: "Imagine what FSU's arrest rate would be if Tallahassee police actually arrested football players."

We are five games into Fisher's troubled (and troubling) tenure in which he has been captured on television pushing and shoving assistant coaches and/or other team personnel and inexcusably grabbing a player by the facemask. These missteps have gone viral to tens of thousands of television viewers. It is my fondest hope that these outbursts have not gone unnoticed by the athletic director and the university administration. I am going to assume, perhaps naively, that the powers that be already have acted so that we might not have to endure 10 more years of this boorish, mind-boggling misbehavior.

Perhaps even more ominous in some ways is the prospect of A&M turning once again into a powerhouse reminiscent of the days of Paul "Bear" Bryant, Emory Bellard, Jackie Sherrill and R.C. Slocum. Winning coaches often are given a behavioral and ethical blank check by university administrators, alumni and the adoring public if they pile up the wins.

In our case, let's pile up the wins but let's do it with class. Shoving or pummeling assistants and assaulting players is not class!

Arnold is really stupid if he thinks he's going to get much, if any support for this.  Ethics? HAHA  I hope Arnold likes hate mail, hate phone calls, social media harassment, and possibly in person harassment.  That's what he's going to get.

Throwing shade at a recruit will come back to bite you. Especially if that recruit, no matter how low his rating is, has an A&M offer and is being pursued by A&M. You don't watch to accidentally badmouth a kid who has a chance, however slight, of ending up in your class.

I don’t have my head in the sand on these things. aggy has the upper hand right now, first issue is to acknowledge it so you can figure out how to beat them.

 

our last 8 recruits:

1. Demaryion Houston - OOS WR with no A&M offer
2. Chris Adimora - OOS S with no A&M offer
3. Derrian Brown - OOS RB with no A&M offer 
4. Tyler Owens - in-state S with no A&M offer
5. David Gbenda - in-state LB with an A&M offer but was being slow played at one by both us and aggy, aggy completely stopped recruiting him after they got bluechip LB Christian Harris
6. Marcus Tillman - OOS LB with no A&M offer
7. Marques Caldwell - in-state CB with no A&M offer
8. Javonne Shepherd - well this ones about to get fucked up if today was any indication 

 

Aggy has like  4 good recruits with bread filling out the rest. Their #1 class is based on numbers, not average recruits. We own them in this area. I would hands down take Herman over Jimbo in recruiting and evaluation. Hean isn't a midget raccoon dick sucking mouth breather. Plus he's better at talent evaluation and coaching. Jimbo squanders talent and does a shit job with o-line talent. I'm not saying Herman is Meyer or Saban, but he sure as fuck is better than Jimbo. Those recruits that don't have offers from Jimbo? They weren't going to aggy, anyway. They're too good. They see aggy the same way we do...as parasites.

a hell of a lot more people can build a company than sustain one. we obviously gave the contract thinking he was capable of both. 

stack talent, develop it. keep a gifted, motivated staff around you (obviously his biggest failure at fsu). 

the rest is a bit of luck. if our heights end up being a top 5 finish where afterwards i stumble into the mansion asking an OU student about her spring course schedule . . . i'll take it. 

Jimbo couldn't keep a gifted and motivated staff at FSU because he's an asshole. He lost a bunch of coaches after his 3rd year and he lost Jeremy Pruitt after one year. He's not very well liked in coaching circles.

I mean, this is an interesting question, sort of. Elko is seen as a high quality assistant. Does he sit and wait at aTm, or does he take a job at a mid tier progarm elsewhere to become the guy? People here wring their hands similarly over Todd Orlando.

Orlando isn't the type to actively look to leave to a head coaching job I hear, like most coordinators. And I'm aware he interviewed for UH. However, I'd bet Elko isn't similar.

He eventually will. Jimbo managed to run off several assistants at FSU because they couldn't stand working for him. After a while he was left with "yes men" who toed the line. I imagine the same will happen at Aggy.

His DC at FSU after Pruitt left was a fucking joke but Jimbo kept him. He had a staff there that was Top 10 in CFB for total compensation. He just distributed those funds poorly.

The lies Jimbo keeps telling about lack of resources and making the FSU Boosters the boogeymen will continue to be believed by Aggy. Nevermind the fact that the booster group at FSU does what the AD tells them to do and are not in the position to tell any coach "no". Jimbo burned all his bridges at Florida State with his childish behavior which, I wager, will also happen in Collie Station.
