Haven’t attempted to really establish a run game. It’s clear they are just practicing pushing the ball downfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came here to say this. It's pretty obvious Fisher is trying to improve the chemistry of his QBs/WRs. I will be shocked if he takes this many chances downfield against a real opponent. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SH would have to play strictly zone to try and contain you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need work on it and I don’t think it’s easy regardless of opponent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never heard a currently employed coach talk about another job being his dream job. That’s very odd. What happens when the WV job opens in two years?

We all know who their first call is now going to be. I guy saying never say never and home is home is not someone that is looking for the job. He could have lobbied and they would have offered him that job any time over the last 15 years and likely would have gotten it. he was asked a direct quote of “would you ever consider taking the WVU job” and gave the coach speak line of never say never and “I love where I’m at now” and home is home. If he says something along the lines of I’ll never consider the job it’s an unnecessary shot at his home state. Everyone with a brain knows he’s not leaving a job with the resources and the current trajectory of A&M for WVU any time soon. Why throw salt in the wounds of his home state for something everyone already knows. Not to mention this is the exact thing you say when lobbying for that raise in two years when the WVU does come open and you want a raise at your current job.

I don't think the process of making a job recruit itself is that hard TBH. It's the investment and commitment that the school is willing to take. 1) Facilities 2) Coaches 3) Resources 4) Marketing Kansas had the right idea when they hired Les Miles. They hired a popular coach, increased their staff, a football-friendly AD, they poured resources into their scouting and recruiting, and the marketing that was done with their ESPN show was absolutely fantastic. The issue was the first sign of adversity and they shut it all down. Les gone, coaching staff shrunk, cheap basketball AD... Kansas is content with only being good at 1 sport. LSU before Nick Saban was in a bad place. Poor facilities, bad coaching, sub par talent... he came in with a recruiting and scouting network to lock down Louisiana and it worked. A&M before Jimbo had 1,2, and 4 right. Now that they have 3 also... they will rise. They will make that 5-10 year investment on all 4 of the points above. LSU does that. Alabama does that. Georgia does it. Michigan, Ohio St, Oregon, etc. It just takes time, money and a few brain cells. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see him ending his career there as like you said, as a last hoorah. I just find it really odd that he somewhat entertains the idea here when him leaving anytime soon isn't even on the table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see him ending his career there as like you said, as a last hoorah. I just find it really odd that he somewhat entertains the idea here when him leaving anytime soon isn't even on the table. I think there’s context to this too though. All Jimbo said was never say never and home is home. Followed by I love where I am and things are great here. Can it be taken out of context and seem like Jimbo is politicking for the WVU job? Sure I guess. I see your point. But I also see this in a sense where Jimbo knows that everyone else knows WVU is not the school A&M is. He would take a pay cut, play in a inferior conference that honestly could crumble at any moment, and doesn’t have a fraction of the resources. I get the feeling he made the comment not anticipating anyone even considers it serious because of those above factors. I find the honesty a little refreshing honestly. Home is home and that’s fine. He could have come out and said the coach speak line of “I’ll never leave A&M this place is the best place on earth blah blah blah.” Instead he answered in a never say never statement because everyone knows he’s not leaving for that job anytime soon. I assure you had Jimbo anticipated people to run with this this way he wouldn’t have been honest, because it’s a non issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justafan903 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Haynes needs to come hold his daddy’s clipboard. OL ain’t worth a crap but Haynes ain’t no good either. If Ags win, it’ll be because they out-athleted them. Not coaching, not grit. Texas is better with a backup QB on a bad leg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the OL injuries/ not gelling and bam. A loss. Doesn’t make or break the season but man. Something needs to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
