Can't wait for them to money whip a hotshot play caller, sure he'll work great with Jimbo. Definitely won't be an oil and water type of deal.

They should offer Pete Carroll a 5yr 1.2 billion dollar contract. Then they can have the only active coach to win a National Championship and a Super Bowl. Maybe that's the missing piece.

Uh….do you mean sitting coach?

If you look at the actual national vet school rankings, aggy is middling like they are at everything. It’s why they fought so hard to keep Tech from starting a vet school. It won’t take much effort to be at least as good as the aggy vet school and just a bit of effort to pass them.

Oh wow. UC Davis is #1. I didn't know that.

It's true. A&M is even bad at being an ag school.

Since they can’t buy him out, and can’t save face if they don’t win, they will just continue to double down on him by spending even more money. Post above is correct. They will buy the hot coordinator for an unprecedented contract.  Think (normal) head coach money. $5M per.  They will also ratchet up the bag game and “NIL” to overcome his inability to attract a decent QB.  You can’t win without a good QB and his evaluations and development have been shit.  So just buy a proven guy.  Look for a winning QB to portal to them out of nowhere this off-season.  What they have on the roster is years away or junk.

Assuming he wouldn't earn any of the following bonuses (and the un-likelyhood based on laughing faces): 

$100,000 SEC Championship/$200,000 Winning SEC Championship 🤣🤣🤣

$300,000 for appearing in the CFP/$500,000 appearing in title game/$1,000,000 winning national title game 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

$50,000 SEC Coach of the year/$100,000 national coach of the year🤣🤣

 

Right around $89,700,000 if fired this week. Looks like they have to pay 25% within 60 days and the rest starting 120 days after that in annual installments through 2031. 

Pretty sure if that buyout rumor is true, the "businessmen" ran out of fingers and toes to count on and have no idea what they are getting into, since no way they paying this:

 

If this is accurate, I am astounded.  They pay him basically nothing for getting to or wining a conference or national championship.  Make 10 mil a year but, whoa Nelly, you get an extra 100k if you get to the conference championship?  Taxes, the cost to fly in his girlfriend and kid, put thwm up at a hotel, by the time the dust settles Jimbo might be better off not going to the conference championship and instead just sitting in his garage drinking beer and reading surly.

Why not pay him $100k each year and give him a 6 million dollar bonus for making the conf champs and another 10 million for each national championship?  Hmmm, I wonder why they didn’t paper that up?

The funny thing here is that over the summer they convinced themselves that Arch Manning (1) is overrated and(2) didn't consider Aggy because Jimbo didn't show interest (and he is the QB whisperer).

Yes.

Am 100% convinced Jimbo is trying to pull a Costanza and get fired. He looks absolutely miserable and everyone hates him. Wildly amusing to see a coach who hates his fanbase and fanbase hates him. This is great theater! Even Lucci going anti-Jimbo.

He will burn it down on the way out.

Lawyers on both sides are looking for their quickest/most $$ (Jimbo) - least $$ (aggy) way out.

It is aggy and will end in the most aggy way possible.

Rinse. Repeat. It's good for your hair but don't drink it. Give new coach trophy  - 20__ Champions - just fill in the blanks.

Yep - over $7 million for just this year. Throw in a couple extra years they probably guaranteed and they are over 1/10th of a BILLION $ to get rid of these clowns. Astounding! But hey, not every coaching staff can be 23.5 point underdogs this week. You gotta pay to get that kind of quality. 🤣

That's about the same as we were. I wonder if the Aggies will be leading with ten seconds left in the game?

Throwing good money after bad. Their notion that a play caller fixes this is idiotic. What play is there to call when your offense reeks outside of a few exceptional players? What's the best aspect of their offense? There isn't one. 

They need an OC who knows how to make this system work or who can install a system that does work. There is no magical series of play calls that turns them into a competent offense let alone a juggernaut. 

They do, however, have a great many DL. Scads. For the moment anyway.

It's a shitshow.
