In the unlikely but possible event our QB room clears out next season (Ewers NFL, Murphy transfer) we should give this guy a call

Former QB/Future coach do you want to learn offense from Sark or from Jimbo and Petrino? Also could ride Arch coattails to an NFL job.

Not going to happen, but it would pretty sweet if we could get his brother to tag along as Sanders’ replacement next year.

Do you even need sources to know they are a dumpster fire?  secrant....

 

Sources say Texas A&M, internally, is a 'dumpster fire' right now

Spoke with several of my A&M friends this morning, wanted to give them a few days to get over the loss and get a clearer, non emotional picture of how the program feels going into the bye week.

The consensus seems to be that A&M is a mess right now internally, on several different fronts. Two of them described it as a "dumpster fire."

-OL Steve Addazio is said to feel like he is unfairly being made the "whipping boy" for A&M's struggles.

-Surprise, surprise, Bobby Petrino and Jimbo are frustrated with each other, Petrino is said to have acquiesced to Jimbo very well early on but is growing increasingly frustrated and vocal in meetings and Jimbo is negatively responding in turn. It was described to me as "a lot of thinly veiled shots and passive aggressive behavior from both men."

-The boosters are in a turmoil. One faction wants Jimbo gone but can't come up with all of the money, another faction wants to give Jimbo at least another year to hold things together. With these issues, some boosters are pulling NIL dollars leading to a lot of confusion among both current players as well as commits.

-With the NIL issues as well as all of the drama surrounding the program, recruits are being pounced on by other programs like crazy. A&M is being absolutely trashed by coaches all throughout the country and their commits are getting restless. Four star Drelon Miller has already decommitted and there's a lot of smoke around that five star Terry Bussey is about to jump ship as well. That's said to only be the beginning. Recruits are supposedly being privately told that there are no guarantees that the current staff is in place next season and that any NIL offer could disappear at any time.

-Several of the "bigger name players" are said to be very frustrated with a lack of improvement, notably Rueben Owens and Evan Stewart. Moose Muhammad is also said to be very frustrated with his lack of playing time. Conner Weigman is allegedly being advised by people around his family to seek a new home this offseason as he has struggled to stay healthy behind the A&M offensive line however he persinally seems reluctant to leave A&M.

-Allegedly, Jimbo hasn't really dug in his heels over making any specific changes, although he's perceived as being stubborn. He simply can not figure out how to fix the issues, he is very frustrated and doesn't know what to do.

-Max Johnson is taking a beating and is said to be nursing "at least 3 different minor injuries" including one to his non throwing wrist. There is concern that he won't be able to finish the season. Johnson is said to have intentions of coaching after his college career ends and wanted to begin as a GA at A&M however that seems very uncertain now.

-The entire program is frustrated with not being able to win on the road. It's something they've focused on so much that they feel like they're choking because of overthinking

Was reminded of A&M twice today. 

1) I’m not sure that this ag didn’t just prove the headline wrong…

Such an eloquent young man:

Quote

"Her first semester she brought this energy that a lot of people just have that she possessed illuminating a room she'd walk into,” Sanchez added.

Tell him how much you hate the sips and that you burned couches in protest both times they beat the buckeyes and report back here what he says 

Don't forget to endear yourself to him by letting out a random "Whoop!" at inappropriate times.

My new boss is Aggy.  Seems to not be one cult gomers.  What am I in for?

It sounds like you are young still working at a fast food joint so best advice is hang in there and eventually you will not have to worry about working for an Aggie.

With aggy having a bye week and thus unable to seize defeat from the jaws of victory it's a bit slow but they still can't help themselves but put stupidity into the ether.

So now after celebrating their 100 year decision to join the SEC the SEC is biased against them hurting their players by being scheduling meanies and somehow they think that the 2024 schedule is drastically easier.

Checks notes: Pretty sure Notre Dame is an upgrade over Miami, Florida is probably a push with Tenner, Missouri is probably a push with Ole Miss, and shitbox Texas actually beat Alabama so not sure how that 2024 schedule is significantly easier other than maybe the road/home splits since they get ND, UT, LSU, & Mizzou at the bat guano field and the road games are all meh except for the Swamp visit.

Bilbo needs to get 2024 under his belt then you can cut him loose IDMAS.

Absolutely.  Imagine a staff meeting with the new boss and a dozen direct reports:

Boss:  So, if we can get our cost of materials down 12%, our profit margin should triple.

Parliament:  Whoop!
