Fisher's terse comments about potential changes offensively at Texas A&M raise red flags - On3
Reporter : "Who will call plays?"
Jimbo : “We’ll go through that as we go …
(long pause) …
plan on (Petrino) making calls, plan on him calling plays. I have no problem with that at all.”

Jimbo is a mediocre football coach but man he is fricking hilarious.

His pride will not let him give up calling plays.

Now post the entire quote….”Petrino will be calling the plays and running the offense”

Are we sure this isn't a Les Miles quote?

>>I'm going to call the plays.
>>I'm going to let the OC run the offense and call the plays so that I can be a more CEO type coach.
>>I'm going to get back to my roots and what I love. I'm going to call the offense.

We all know what's about to happen here.

Ok wait - you don’t include the entire quote to make it seem like a different answer?

Jimbo Fisher on whether he or Bobby Petrino will call the offense: "We'll go through that as we go. I plan on him making calls. I plan on him calling plays. I don't have a problem with that at all."

Petrino "calling plays" does not mean Petrino is calling ALL THE plays..
No mention at all of Petrino "running the offense..."

I really hope Petrino doesn’t call plays from the booth so we can all watch when they finally come to blows.

Sounds EXACTLY like what we heard in Baton Rouge when Lesticles kept promising change.

Making the calls, calling the plays
That’s not running the offense?

Petrino will be the head coach in 2024, if not by the end of the year.

If that happened, could we all agree that he’d earned his 100 million then?

C’mon. We’ve all known Jimbo is quirky with how he says things. He mumbles. Not a great orator.
But Dont you see the real issue here! He used different words!

“Spring is always a great time,” head coach Jimbo Fisher said Monday just before ripping through some prepared thoughts with the speed of the fastest-talking Texas auctioneer.
“It’s about fundamentals. It’s about getting back to basics. It’s practicing until you do it right until you can’t do it wrong. It’s about assessments, your alignments, your leverage, your steps, which is football. It always is. Spring is about all that.”
Fisher raised his hand and swatted away the first question before the reporter could even finish his sentence, saying, “We ain’t worried about that. Here’s what we’re doing. We’re running our thing. We’re going to be base fundamentals. We ain’t getting into scheme. We ain’t getting into anything. That’s what we’re going do. That’s what we’re going to practice. And what we’re going to do on a daily basis.”
What made you interested in hiring Petrino?
“That was a guy we wanted to hire. A guy I’ve known. We have great respect for each other. After meeting and talking with him, we thought it’d be a very good fit for what we’re trying to do.”
What made you circle back to Bobby Petrino after interviewing him, and then him accepting the UNLV OC job?
“I didn’t go back. Never left.”
Who will call plays?
“We’ll go through that as we go … (long pause) … plan on (Petrino) making calls, plan on him calling plays. I have no problem with that at all.”
“We ain’t got enough hours in the day to go through all that,” he said when asked if he could describe similarities and differences between him and Petrino philosophically.
“At the end of the day, we believe in one thing: Execution. An over route is an over route. A dig is a dig. We get so caught up, it’s not scheme. It’s execution. How do you execute? Alignment. Assignment. Technique.
“If you go watch everybody in the country, everybody does the same thing. Go watch the film. There’s not a hill of beans between anybody as far as what goes on. What routes are. What plays are. A counter is a counter. A dig and a post is a dig and a post. Verticals are verticals. I mean, it’s all the same, it gets back to execution and fundamentals.”
What exactly did I miss there that changed the context of his quote?
