The B12 (XII) Forum, home of the 'Front Porch, y'all' at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Next day he comes back with ten dollars so the lady takes him to a room where six old guys with their pants pulled down to their knees and their tools in their hands are staring intently a closed circuit TV monitor...

Jimbo's going to A&M.

If not, he is by now doing a disservice to his players and the fans by not wanting to talk "other jobs" - merely to leverage FSU for more $$.  He could outright deny it, it's not like the talk is not all over the country.

The game is now past the "gaming" stage.  He's going to Aggieland.

Everything has died down.  

Rumor is that he's waiting to finish the regular season with FSU this weekend against ULM.  That game was canceled earlier this year (hurricane I think) but was rescheduled recently since FSU needs that win to become bowl eligible.  Otherwise the announcement would've already occurred.  Anyway... after the game Saturday, supposedly he'll be announced as A&M's next HC.  We'll see.  

Given all news related to A&M's vacancy and Jimbo's future has completely stopped... I tend to put some stock in the rumor. 

On a related note... A&M Regents meeting is called for this week with the hiring/compensation of a new head football coach listed on the agenda.

Doesn't mean it's Jimbo Fisher.  But...

There is no buyout of Sumlin's contract.  Byrne gave him a guaranteed contract.... He has $10.4 Million remaining on his contract and we're on the hook to pay him every last cent of it... within 60 days of this past Sunday.  There is no getting out of it.  

Just goes to show how incredibly stupid our administration has been over the years.  

When Shiner is around, he posts here.  And here is where the discussion of A&M's terminated coach and potential new coach resides.  

This confirms my long-held belief that Texas A&M is in fact a Big 12 school.  

I'll let you "blue blood" fans lose your shit every December when you're not winning national titles every single year as if it's some ridiculous birthright.  

Nah.  You’re hyperbolizing again.

I never think much about national titles, at least not until the Sooners are actually IN an MNC game, and even then the chances are roughly just a coin flip.

Conference titles though - yeah - I do want the Sooners in THAT discussion.  That’s still the true mark of a successful season in my book, but even then I’d be happy with a conf title every 3-4 years.

I post here because the SEC board is boring more days (present company notwithstanding).... and this place sees more action.  If we had more discussions about beer, women and chicken fried steak over there.... that's where you'd find me.
