A@M hiring Stoops? Guess not

[SickOfPractice]

Pulled a Houston Nutt.

Was there a plane on the tarmac in Lexington? If not, Steve Pederson is still the King of coaching search screwups.

 

[SickOfPractice]

Who's up next to turn down the ATM machine? Tuberville? Connor Stallions?
😂

 

[Landomatic]

The best part is, no matter how it all actually went down (most likely aTm tripped over their own dick, because it's aTm), Stoops got ahead of it and at least made it look like he turned them down

 

[dinglefritz]

Stoops will kick ass at A&M. Some clueless posts in this thread.....

He would have a LOT better resources there. Talking heads call TAM one of the most attractive jobs in college football for that reason. It still would come down to QBs and handling pressure and personalities.

So good that this is TAMU.

 

[c3o]

They should hire Chadwell and see if he can compete at that level with all those resources.

Put this crap on an A&M board. Here’s to praying this is the last damn off-season of misery!

Good coach

Was one of very few I mentioned as wanting to come here

Just beat a top 10 team on the road tonight

Maybe our grandkids will witness a victory over a top 10 team on the road at the glacial pace we’re going. Maybe.

Great prediction! So you already have grandkids-cool!!!

Yeah don't talk about what's going on in college football on a college football board

I hope ATM pulls a Steve Pederson and epically fails in their coaching search.

 

[Frozone]

Looks like aTm realized they were going to have a Schiano/Tennessee type riot on their hands.

How long before the Jon Gruden rumors start?

They will end up paying a ridiculous amount of money and get a solid coach

 

[Baxter48]

It’s going to a tough sell to get a coach down there they’ll probably settle for a top oc or dc

That would be just like Tennessee when everyone turned them down and they got Pruitt.

Later, it's only 7:30 right now.

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

Would have thought the next guy would have been lined up a long time ago. Weird.

 

[Landomatic]

They will end up paying a ridiculous amount of money and get what they’ve always gotten.

Fify

 

[HuskAir]

They should hire Craig Bohl.

I think they thought they had the Lion’s coach

 

[RedMyMind]

Watch it be Manny Diaz

 

[Huskers123456]

I would at least make Lanning turn down an absurd amount of money before offering the next guy.

My oldest kid is 2

It’ll be decades until I have grandkids

 

[RedBaloneyPony]

If I’m Urban Meyer, I’m calling them up and saying give me a 3 year 60 million guaranteed. With another 40 million in incentives.

Ok. I take it back. Bad prediction!

 

[TruHusker]

Thank God the cuckeyes had a terrible AD back in 2016. Bob hinted he would accept the Iowa HC position if it were offered to him. But of course the school was ( and always will be) in love with mediocrity and will stay with King Crybaby until he dies.

And we have a great track record of insightful ADs and winning HCs aside from Bob who hired Tom. Now we can't even sniff mediocrity but we talk like we are still kings. I don't get it, some humility is deserved.

He did.

 

[LonghornInOmaha]

No way Bjork survives this. I could see them eventually settling for Traylor or ERob.

 

[salsa red]

Jimbo did ok there, they got rid of him bc he couldn't beat bama, ga or lsu consistently, but noone else can do it either.

 

[phoenix4nu]

I would seriously consider Jedd Fisch if I was them.

 

[Charlie Marlow]

Bill Crapahan

Lanning is waiting for Saban to retire, then he'll get the Bama job.

Does your 2 year old post for you sometimes? 🤣

 

[headcard]

Or Michigan after Harbaugh goes back to the NFL. He's a midwest guy, originally from KC.

 

[JOHNNY N]

Why did they fire Jimbo in the first place?

 

[drubendall]

I think they thought they had the Lion’s coach

Coaching college is infinitely worse than the NFL. The pay is pretty good though.

 

[drubendall]

I gotta wonder if the A.D. is the sole decision-maker, or if this is strictly by committee.

The problem with ATM is they think they can buy their way to championship. You might want to take a chance on an up-and-comer and surround him with veteran assistants that have coached at a high-level.

The guy they should hire is at Texas San Antonio. Guarantee he’s gonna have a shot at every top player in Texas.
