This was Jimbo Fisher's 6th season at Texas A&M. Saying you're under pressure to perform at A&M in year 2 or you'll get fired is not founded in reality.

How can someone "come there"?

I can't believe that an Alabama education is explaining this to you...

Aggies (meaning, those located at the college or support the college) think (or believe) great coaches (highly desired coaches with great resumes, see Saban) want (desire) to come there (relocate to the location of the college).

Hope that helps.

Haven't read the posts above mine, but A&M can absolutely be a top dog in the SEC.

It was not Jonny Manziel that made their team but their Offensive Line. He got the credit but that O'line was great.

Coach Bryant was their coach for a while. Coach Stallings beat Coach Bryant although his overall record was not very good.

Neither took them to the top for long, but A&M has a long tradition. LSU is a hated rival and has been for many years, and A&M whips them more than LSU fans want to admit.

No reason A&M can't break the glass ceiling that UGA smashed after a few coaches, especially now that NIL is in play. They have the best facilities and plenty of money.

Can they do it? I dunno. I'm a Bama fan and it's hell trying to stay at the top.

Y'all... Just cause you got money and male cheerleaders, doesn't mean tier 1 coaches want to come there. Right now, y'all just need someone that can bring some stability.



I said Texas A&M need to get someone just started having success. It worked for KSU, Kansas, Oregon, Mizzou, and others. No need to break the bank for one.

A&M is Arkansas with more money-except Arkansas is better at basketball.

You missed the point, Gump. You can “come here” or “go there.” You cannot “come there.”

Why wouldn’t a top coach want to coach at the largest university in the country, that has great facilities, with a huge, extremely loyal and supportive alumni base with the wherewithal to fund most anything?

Well, they aren't wrong. Great coaches do want to coach at A&M in football. Right before they retire.

You are a really good football coach but you're starting to get a bit long in the tooth. That offer from A&M for an obscene amount of money so you can pad your retirement and provide for the next couple of generations of your family looks really tempting.

It is the coaching version of winning the lotto.

Great coaches want to coach at the highest level of competition.

The Aggies play in the SEC West.

It’s not any more complicated than that.

'Come there' is correct because it references the location of the person being addressed.

I don't think you understand English as well as you think you do. There is nothing wrong with what I said.

There is nothing grammatically wrong with what I said.

Say that your boyfriend is located in Texas and you're are in California. He says to you, "I want to see you." You might ask, "should I come there or do you want to come here?"
