People said the same thing about us firing Nutt to be fair, and then Petrino went 21-5 in two seasons so anything can happen. But A&M does seem to think they’re better than they are at a lot of sports for some reason.

Childress’s contract expired.

His performance of late didn’t warrant a re-negotiation of terms.
It has/had nothing to do with “thinking we’re better than we are;” the time was right to make a change.
I know of few (any?) programs who would’ve made a different decision.

This entire thread is odd.
I respect the heck outta Arkansas Athletics and wouldn’t question any decisions y’all’s AD made about what was in the best interest of your university.
Not sure why this topic is of much interest to anyone outside of the TAMU community.

I won’t hate on them for that. That’s what it takes in the SEC. I’d probably be bitter if Childress was a close friend or family member but that’s the business.
