I have joked about replacing Briles with Petrino off and on all year…

Well looks like A&M might beat us there.

As much as I would have loved to have Bobby back calling plays for the offense, there's no way he and Jimbo can co-exist calling plays unless Jimbo is willing to pull his head out of his arse and let Petrino do what he does best. Petrino with aTm 5* talent is scary to think about.

I think the same.

That’s not gonna happen, I don’t think it will be Petrino because around week 3 Jimbo will want to make calls again.

It’s the one thing he has lacked. Even with Lamar it was only Lamar.

If this is Jimbo's idea its genius. But most likely he's being told to do this. These shotgun wedding tend to not end well. We had our own with Nutt and Gus.

If it ends the same, it will be costly… 75m after next year.

Petrino has to perfect offense in practice would lead to defense not being emphasized.

Nothing has shown us Jimbo will give up control. IMO he would rather have the buyout and move on to another school like WVU than not have a role in calling plays.

No. The mf'ers that ratted him out are to blame. Think Urban Meyer, Saban, and other top coaches don't have girlfriends on staff?

According to Long that’s not even why he was fired. It was because he lied.

If you can give us 10 wins per year, every word that comes out of your mouth can be a lie, for all I care

Unless I've forgotten I don't remember Corch nor Saban ever wrecking a motorcycle or vehicle with their side piece onboard.


Or do you believe the bf beat Bobby's arse

I don’t know if those 5 star prima donnas are going to like having their asses chewed out at every missed step in practice. Talk about an overload of egos on one team, coaches and players combined. It might cause a change in the climate down there in that crap hole.

May be worth watching….

I hope this doesn’t happen. If Jimbo actually lets BP run the offense A&M might be unstoppable

6 teams on his schedule were about to stop his offense, 5 we're not this year.

How will aggy make room for the the sons and son-in-laws to all be in staff?

As a play caller? Yes. His team of undersized under valued less talented performers beat our defense up and down the field.

As a person? No. I think he is an a-hole that most people can’t/won’t get along with.

As a head coach? No because I don’t think he will ever have people under him that challenge him enough, and he will never emphasize recruiting in the way it needs to be.

Maybe we can hire Bobby to coach Tight Ends for $500k if Loggains leaves.
