It takes time to build a stable quality program. And Jimbo was on the correct path with his recruiting. Texas A&M shot themselves in the foot today Jimbo will move on to bigger and better things in the near future. His replacement will fail miserably.

Maybe. Maybe not.
But you’re talking about him like he’s a new coach—as if he hasn’t been given time.
You can’t put up the (mediocre) numbers he did (45-25; 7-12 in his last 19 games) and make the money he was and expect to keep your job.
Fisher will land somewhere, and A&M will go a different direction.
We aren’t the first team to fire a guy.
Onward.

He was a horrible hire, and that was a ridiculous contract.

He just needed another 5 years or so. He had them moving in a direction.

I definitely agree with the latter.
I’m indifferent on the former.
I’m not mad he’s gone tho.

Haha. Lsu job came open and they dumped more money on Jimbo. Hahahahahaha. Sucks though. Wished he was still coaching aTm

The Aggies have always been mediocre. It takes time and energy in order to change that type of culture. Jimbo did not have enough time to cultivate his team. It’s SEC for Pete’s sake!

You can't be 11-11 over the last season and a half when making the kind of money he's making.
In fact 9-4, 8-5, 9-1, 8-4, 5-7, 6-4* isn't cutting it for the kind of money he's making.

Jimbo too set in his ways on offense-they had no choice

He’s had both.
The entire team is his … the guy isn’t a new coach.
And he’s been given an obscene amount of resources.
You’re obviously free to think differently—conversations are enjoyable that way
—but the bottom line is Texas A&M’s Board of Regents disagree with you. It’s done.This post was edited on 11/12/23 at 9:18 am

He had every resource known to God handed to him on a silver platter and didn’t so much as sniff the expectations he was brought in to execute.
If he couldn’t do it with the top recruits in the country, the facilities had, and the unlimited salary, he never would. Time to move on.

Really? BK took over LSU with 39 scholarship players and with less than 70 scholarship players his first season won the west and on pace for another 10 win season with a shite defense he’s still trying to rebuild and Jimbo is in his 6th and hasn’t done crap outside of covid season and everyone gets an asterisk that season…if it hadn’t been for that huge contract he would have already been fired last season…

I knew A&M wasn’t going to give the man time when they showed off the “Texas A&M University 20xx National Champions” trophy. They telegraphed to the world they weren’t going to give him ample time to build and succeed. If it said Texas A&M University 21xx National Champions”, that would have given him a fair amount of time to the right the ship. I feel kinda bad for the guy.

They are already haunted by hiring the SOB. Can't do worse by firing him.
