Why would Jimbo leave FSU for TAMU? TAMU has the most delusional fans on earth. Despite decades of mediocrity TAMU alumni think they rank up there with the team from Austin, USC, THE Ohio State University, etc.

TAMU has a lot of wealthy alumni and they're itching to buy an SEC championship.

Sounds like a lateral move at best. Not a good move for Fisher tho I think a good coach could make A&M a power.

“Could Jimbo Fisher be heading to the SEC?”


Odds are that the only way that Jimbo Fisher goes to the SEC is if FSU joins. So the odds are nil. Bobby Bowden made the decision to avoid the SEC a long time back.

The two years with Johnny Football were mediocre? Don’t think so. The Cotton Bowl in 2012 and Chick-fil-A in 2013.They did struggle in the Big 12 though for years.

Being a Troy alumnus, I hope everyone ignores him but Neal Brown should be on everyone’s A list.

On a related topic, I'd love to see DJT halt all federal funding to colleges built upon BS degrees for student athletes. No GI Bill, no vouchers, no research grants, no nothing.

Promote scholarship that produces patriots able the reason and solve math and engineering problems. Then watch the NFL and our underlying culture change.

“Texas A&M has the most delusional fans on earth.”
Truer words were never spoken. They hated Mike Leech’s guts because he called it a “fake military school.” (The “M” does not stand for “Military.”)

Sumlin has made monumental mistakes while “learning” SEC college football, all on A&M’s dime. The list is long.

He will take that experience and do well at his next gig. However, he could make it awkward for A&M if he wins out and ends up with a 9 win season.

That said, Sumlin is viewed as someone who sees himself immune and has acted accordingly, to include his agent crapping the bed during contract negotiations. This caused incurable resentment with billionare regents.

The school may not have the football resume as the usual Top 10 schools, but they were the most profitable school in sports last year and are one of the wealthiest schools in the nation, with the best facilities around. They can afford pretty much anyone they want.

That said, a Fisher hire would likely not be an upgrade.

Um, like when TAMU beat Alabama a few years back? UT Austin isn’t going so hot, either. College teams are always changing since athletes graduate ( they hope) and new students come in.

Gig ‘em!
