Why did Jimbo turn down more money from LSU to stay at A&M?

Let's try not to be childish here, okay.
LSU is obviously one of the schools where it is possible to build a program that contends for national titles year in and year out. They have done it. A&M has not. And yet Jimbo obviously thinks it is happening at A&M, or he never would have refused a raise from LSU to stay at A&M.
I know most of this board prays to baby Jesus that he fails, all the more because he scorned your school twice, once to stay at FSU and once to stay at A&M. Others of you (non LSU fans) want him to fail because you hate to think that A&M might take a spot in the elite that you want your school to take. I get it.
You'll pretend. "He's terrible! So glad he said no! He's done nothing!" Some of you might even manage to convince yourselves of what you desperately want to believe. But deep down, you know better.

Because at LSU, mediocre gets you fired, even within 2 years of a national championship.
Jimbo knows that if he even makes it to Atlanta, aggy will give $200 million.
Expectations are different.

The answer is obvious. Lower expectations.

He has a comfortable situation with less pressure than LSU & he knew the 2022 class was going to special. I can't stand Jimbo but he has a good thing going on, why leave?

A few reasons but not all
- A&M has better facilities/stadium
- Infinity better hospital care with nearby Houston for his son
- Better land/outdoor/hunting opportunities
- Baton Rouge is trashy as hell

Your post screams scared and insecure

Jimbo looked a lot more appealing circa 2015 when Miles was running the program aground with failed QB experiment after failed QB experiment. He was the guy in ‘15 before Alleva got cucked. We know what he is since that Florida State natty and we know what he is in this league. You aren’t winning titles with that offense. He’s fine for A&M. you’ll recruit well and get your 8-4 seasons. We win championships. You aren’t us.

Aggy fans don’t understand the definition of “job security”
Posted on 8/23/22 at 11:07 am to Hugh McElroy
bc he is content with mediocrity
Posted on 8/23/22 at 11:09 am to Hugh McElroy
He likes towns with one one red light.

He's not terrible at all. I never did want him going back to late 2015. I think he's dirty. Very happy things didn't work out well with him and LSU.

It’s been well-established that Jimbo was a smoke screen in the search process. Woody had his man all along in Kelly, but had to wait for the playoff scenarios to unfold.
Seems like Woody had no difficulty in leaving College Station Jimbo behind for Baton Rouge. And now he’s found his true program builder at LSU.

It's hilarious that the singular source of the supposed contract offered to Jimbo is Billy Liucci. You fruitcakes are so fricking gullible.

Except LSU and Woodward said a few time Jimbo was never offered or even marginally considered for the job?
I mean I know this helps in your insecurities that "Jimbo turned down LSU during the last search" but fact is he never was offered anything to turn down..
Did Woodward maybe ping him for any interest possibly. But that is at best the extent of it.
But hey if it makes you feel better roll with it. Kind of not telling a kid there is no Santa Clause.
Why would LSU hire a coach who just got beat by one of the most depleted and worst teams LSU has had in 20 years.

He is terrible. He proves it every year and this year SPECTACULARLY in the offseason when Boss Man Saban turned him into a gay porn on-set fluffer in front of the entire planet. We are glad he "said no" because he's a babbling half-cocked redneck grifter with marbles in his mouth and we have hired a far better coach and he actually has done very little outside one dream season at another school. He is the living embodiment of Failing Up.
"Deep down", I know 2-9 against Daddy LSU without those national championships has made you very jealous of new Big Brother.

Everybody knows this is a lie.
LSU doesn't have that kind of money.

Because he knows that the males at aggy will not have interest in mating with his wife like they would at LSU and did at FSU.

I believe NIL may have played a role in Jimbo's decision to stay with A&M over LSU. A&M is rich and LSU is poor. Plus LSU fans are unrealistic with their torch and pitchfork mentality. Look how they treated Saban.

This thread is a perfect example of the disconnect with reality that A&M fans have. They really think they are a top tier program. It's equal parts sad and funny.
