Tl;dr. And I don’t really care about this topic enough. I think he’s fine. Not great, not terrible. Saying he was going to be retained, which is true, isn’t shitting on him. It’s merry stating a fact. 

I never said he was like Mehringer; that’s just a straw man you created to try to dig yourself out of the pit of word vomit you’re currently rolling around in.

Lulz. I didn’t shit on him. I said he was a pretty meh hire. Not great, not terrible. You’re the one who said he’s been good to great everywhere he’s been except Texas. 

This cant really be your standard, can it? Show me bad RB production and recruiting at LSU at any point in the last 20 years. He gets gifted guys like Emery and Guice, who even Todd Orlando could’ve landed if he was the RB coach at LSU. As for production levels, that’s much more dependent on the OC and the overall offense. He had some good recruiting victories at USC, but Tee Martin was listed as the secondary recruiter on most of those recruitments, so it’s hard to know if Robinson landed those guys or if it was more of a Mehringer gets credit for Jake Smith kind of situation. He doesn’t appear to be much of a volume recruiter, and he’s not God’s gift to RBs as far as coaching goes.

"I never said getting fired was saying he sucks, I merely brought up that he was fired and heavily implied that this is indicative he isn't a good hire elsewhere"
"I never said he was like  Mehringer, I just pointed out a better recruiter was the secondary on all his best recruits at USC, and then I attached him to Drew Mehringer and Jake Smith because they had similar situations at Texas. But Who knows, right?"

Ok guy. It's not a straw man I created, it's a dynamic I identified and that you were happy to take and run with. It's fine, we're close enough to the same page here that as you said, it doesn't warrant more time.

Idk what is going on with this bloviating attempt at humor, but do you actually think Tommie Robinson is a good hire by ole Jimbo?

Expand  

Hahahaha. What the fuck? I was entertained by my post, at least. You calling anyone else "bloviating" is high comedy as well. And no, I don't think it was a good hire. I have no convictions regarding it though, so if you or Sydney or whomever wants to tell me I'm wrong about that, have at it, but I don't have the energy. I saw a chance to do ridiculous names for two coaches that I enjoy doing that with, and so I did.

I said that except for his time at Texas, Robinson has been successful by every metric by which people usually measure success as a RB coach: He sticks guys in the NFL and he recruits well. That's about as far as I was willing to go on the matter. Apparently Macklin demands more nuance be associated with this hire while proclaiming he's not passionate enough about the subject to continue.

You have like 7 posts on this boring subject now. Macklin does as well. Neither of you clowns can show up and continue to say "That's about as far as I was willing to go on the matter". No, you were willing to apparently go so far into it that you're going to temporarily choke this thread over it. Now you'll have to respond with more. And Macklin will attempt to fly in over the top of you. And then the rest of us will collectively find other shit to do for a bit while you rubes spin yourself out for another page on this thread.

So Looch is saying that Raymond wanted the Aggy gig twice and Jimbo turned him down for Linguist and Rushing? That's what he's going with? Because that would be quite the indictment on Jimbo. Looch, you may want to walk this one back on your podcast or one of your next threads. Yes, we know you are reading surly. (Hi Hamm!!)

That's what it sounds like. Not sure how he reconciles the fact that Jimbo grossly overpaid for Rushing. I can't keep up with the TexAggy spin. 

"Corey Raymond turned us down so I'm going to offer $675K to a guy that doesn't have anywhere near the resume or track record Raymond has"

Yeah.....still not following.

As a tree advocate and volunteer, anything that brings more tree canopy to College Station has my support. If they're lucky the trees will be large with enough canopy to cover up some of the atrocious architecture from at least some of the lines of sight/viewsheds.

The overflow from the undoubtedly leaky retaining pond should be sufficient to grow some decent pecan trees, if they're forward thinking. So it'll probably be yaupon.

Luicci reminds me of Kellyanne Conway.  So hard to tell about his alternative facts, what's true, what's not.

Robinson seems like a solid but not a spectacular hire.  Why can't that be ok?

in most such matters, i have come to conclude that at the end of the proverbial day, let the actions/results do the talking; everything else is spin and will be worthless.  If Robinson is a good hire that will show up in recruiting and in on-field production or any other objective measure of a coach's worth.  and actions will be needed pretty quickly in that thin RB room. so, we shall see.

So you can believe that LSU was so fired up about promoting Kevin Faulk, an LSU legend but one who has never been on the recruiting trail or been a college position coach, that they 'pushed Robinson out' or you can believe that Tommie was looking around, which was why he at one point appeared South Carolina-bound and ultimately landed at A&M

Expand  

I think this narrative would be easier to push for Chin Pubes if LSU didn't wait all of 5 seconds to announce Robinson's replacement.

The best is the guy that got his "<" and ">" mixed up.

They should be prepared to be disappointed.

1 RB, behind a shit OL, and Mond =/= consistent offense.

defense lost a lot again. They have some elite talent, but very little of it exists in the upper classes.

Fisher and the Aggies landed a damn good position coach...what Fisher did in terms of upgrading his entire staff with the four new additions was really damn impressive...

Saw an article already projecting bowl games for next season.  Had USC vs aggy in the Las Vegas Bowl (apparently it's now a PAC 12 vs SEC/Big10 game).  Anyways, would be hilarious to see Orlando against one of the few remaining pro-style/stone aged offenses and shut Jimbo down (again).

Wait, the media isn't buying into their pampers schedule next year?  I thought it was the year the stars aligned and they made the playoffs or one of the New Years bowls.  Now I'm reading the stars align and they make the Las Vegas Bowl? That's a hell of a new bend in their ever growing, cliff dropping coaster ride.  Will there be any survivors this crash or will they be able to bail out in time to point to 2022?

You underestimate them. By this time next year, they will be talking about losing the dead weight at qb formerly known as heismond, and that red shirt freshman Haynes king will lead them to the promised land with their equally flimsy schedule. Johnny was a rs freshman yada yada. 
this will be poured on extra thick if jimbo pulls mond for king at any point this season.
