Brady or Aranda.

 

Expand  

Brady doesn't want to be in college.

Aranda would make some sense. And I'd be happy for him to leave Baylor. He's not very proven as an HC yet though so I'd be a little surprised.

Wonder if any Jimbo rumors start popping up.

Can they afford Jimbo’s buy-out? Lol

Jimbo has a 0 dollar buy out. TAMU signed a 100% guaranteed contract with no recourse for him just leaving when he wants to. 

Wow, the aggy admin is even dumber than I thought (no offense to you).

This is completely accurate. Read the contract.

I mean he can’t possibly get paid the remainder of his contract if he walks…right? That’d be just so aggy. Bigger thing is if he’ll take a pay reduction to go to LSU I guess

I would laugh my ass of if they poach Jimbo with his $0 buyout, but tbh I think it's fan fiction. He literally just signed that fat $95mm deal with Aggy. Hard to leave right after that even if LSU could match it (which I doubt).

No he doesn’t get paid. But can walk away if he pleases.  Very shrewd negotiating over in lit station.

If Jimbo wants to leave $95M guaranteed on the table where all he has to do is show up, finish above .500, and sway back and forth post game after beating UTEP, then I'll personally shake his hand, wish him the best of luck, and do a little jig when he turns around.

He's never leaving.

Seems like Jimbo is just mentioned because it'd be a logical choice, not because he's heard any chatter (yet)

Just don’t quit aggy. Come to an agreement with LSU that his new contract starts the day after he is fired by aggy. Then abandon aggy and start working at LSU without a contract. Aggy will have to fire him and pay him or they don’t fire him and still have to pay him.

Best we can hope for is Jimbo gets his  buddy Woodard to get rumors he’s a top target out there.  Sexton approaches aggy about it. They either balk at additional money, planting the first seed of discontent, or they pay him more and the additional pressure that comes with that.  Win win.

Who says he has to finish above .500? That 95mm is guaranteed as long as he shows up. I honestly don't know why he even risks dropping bags for recruits there when I'd assume some kind of violation is the only way he loses that money.

Rumors seem highly likely. It's Jimbo and Sexton's MO. He'll probably get another raise especially with the Bama win and stay at aggy for life.

Meh Jimbo's recruiting hurts us. He's good at that. Agree that he's too behind the times to be a perennial contender, but he'll have them getting top 5-10 recruiting classes and top 10-15 on the field.

nobody (not even LSU) can match aggy's desperation. I agree Jimbo aint going anywhere.

The idea that aggy would add yet more money to that ridiculous contract is so preposterous I have to laugh at the idea . and then I realize that they absolutely will if given the opportunity. 

My guess is aranda is the guy LSU wants. younger, cheaper, and presumably not a cuck.

A lot of initial Mel Tucker buzz. Seems odd given his very limited track record as a HC and lack of LA ties (one season at LSU 20 years ago)

Not Woodward’s MO - Jimbo at Aggy, stealing Mulkey from Baylor. He’s going to go way bigger than Tucker or Aranda

I'm not saying Tucker makes sense, just that that name is floating the internet a lot. Doubt it happens.

aggy wouldn't hire Traylor. All their decisions are based on the "look at us!" factor.

One interesting thing re: Jimbo. LSU was already paying Coach O $9mm/year. So matching Jimbo's current salary would actually be basically a neutral expense. The only real difference is the 10-year guarantee. In other words, they can afford it. Just a question of the guarantee, whether they think he's worth it, and whether he'd leave right after signing an extension.

Step away from the team.  Reclaim your falls.  Enjoy the play offs. Take a fucking mental health break if you can’t stomach this shit.

You’re a sentient sack of meat on a speck of dust hurtling through an infinite void. From a universal time perspective, your time here isn’t even worth measuring. Try to enjoy it.

Jimbo leaving Aggie for LSU is the most delusional thing I've read since Nicky boy was supposed to leave for Texas. 

 

Expand  

I don't think it happens, but it's not as crazy as it seems. LSU was already paying $9mm/year for O so they can afford to match his pay. Woodward hired Jimbo to Aggy and they're friends. Next year is a rebuilding year for Aggy with tons of starters leaving. Elko likely getting a HC job soon. Aggy is losing their main recruiting pitches in Texas (SEC and $$$).

On the Jimbo front $$$ isn't the issue for him or LSU nor is anything related to some moral compass Jimbo may have (he doesn't) with regard to "I just signed an extension".  If LSU is interested it will come down to which group of weirdos he's more comfortable with.

There’s also that thing where he can win at one place and not the other. I mean, three coaches with NC in 20 yrs vs some guy like 80 years ago when the worlds eyes was on what was happening in Poland.
