maybe there are some out there, but off the top of my head i cant think of an example of a guy who was a successful head coach for 15+ straight years at one school and then maintained or exceeded that level of success at another school.

Mack Brown may be the closest with 10 years at North Carolina before coming to Texas.

No mention from him that this was a Boeing 737. Or that it went to Philly the next day lol

A 737? Very cosmopolitan. I figured they could only fly crop dusters out of collie station.

What's that now?  0/3?  Lanning, DeBoer, Prime...
They will have to work their way down the list for sure, but don't take every one of those "no's" at face value...especially if aggy is desperate enough to meet any price, any demand. I don't know if a contract could possibly get more one sided than Jimbo's was, but by God those gomers won't be denied spending their money.

Did I seriously see Coach Prime’s name in one of these articles? That would be a trip, lol. The number of N-words from the crowd after the first bad play would be truly disturbing.

That’s the one guy I’m positive will not be aggy corch. 

He’s a little too “flamboyant” for at least one aggy booster.

It has to be Elko.  He has voluntarily agreed to live and coach in College Station before which is the biggest hurdle for any aggy coaching search.

Agreed. I can’t imagine them making this move without already having their next stooge in place.

Yup.  If texags were surlyhorns, there'd already be a "Fire Elko" thread.

Hillwood Airways is a charter airline used by a lot of schools to fly sports teams around.  That same plane flew the aggy men's basketball team to Columbus on Thursday to play their game at Ohio State on Friday night, then flew the team back to Collie Station that same night after the game.

I don't know what the plane was headed to Eugene for on Saturday, as I can't find any sporting events involving the Ducks in Philly this week.  But flying some big cigars to Eugene would be a hell of a coincidence, especially considering that chartering a private jet to Eugene would be much cheaper than a 737.

Then again, aggy has shown recently that they aren't exactly frugal with their money.  So who the hell knows.

If we do, let's make sure it's 2___ instead of 20__.

Probably more realistic.

My dream scenario is they somehow stretch it out another 67 years (I will be long deceased but I'm sure my oversoul will look down from the astral plane) and be further away from the present day to their national championship than George Washington was from taking office....

If Elko is the choice and he accepts, Elijah Robinson should throw his resume in the hat for HC at Duke. I’d be pleased with that result.

 

Also - these SEC short clips might be one aspect of moving to the SEC that concerns me the most. I don’t want to be subjected to this god awful humor or the people that like it in perpetuity.

SIAP...  Says Sexton has 10 of 14 SEC coaches

Tim Brando: "Urban Meyer is a Great Fit at Texas A&M"

Brando is the shitty-alcoholic-uncle everyone-avoids-during-Thanksgiving of college football….
 

But truth be told he’s probably the shitty alcoholic uncle the Brandos avoid during Thanksgiving as well so there’s that.

Looch said on Twitter that Lanning is not happening. Lanning also very explicitly said it is not happening (unlike a lot of the deflections you hear from others).

Also - would ATM boosters really fly up there (on a 737 no less) before Jimbo was announced, right before ATM's game Saturday, and right before Oregon's game vs USC? 

Btw - that might be where Oregon St flies out of too

It feels like they are trying to get Dabo.

- country bible thumping bumpkin

- talks like a hick

- won NCs so they can (again) boast about how they stole a NC coach.

 

And in the end, they won’t win jack shit. 

Yup. If you try to think like an Aggie, Dabo is who you want. I think that’s who they have lined up. They wouldn’t have fired Jimbo right now unless they had their guy. And Dabo wants in the money train and NIL because his fake church isn’t working anywhere. In my opinion, this is the odds on favorite right now.

You give them waaaaay too much credit by assuming they have anything lined up or planned.

Traylor is who I think they ultimately end up with, and that means they will stumblefuck backdoor into what I think would be a good hire and the best fit for the whole aggyness that comes along with the job.

That doesn't mean he's going to overcome 84 years of culture holding them back, but still a solid coach they don't really deserve.
