Former national championship coach wants to coach again



He beat Saban once...in case anyone's interested. Auburn?

The Jimbo Aggy history is just an absurd part of SEC lore.

They went all in and spent a shite load of money.............and have nothing.

What's with the Texas teams spending all that money and winning jack squat? It still doesn't make sense.

Now we have SMU doing it again, too.

Jimbo is right. He's had success everywhere he's gone. The problem is the level of success. Just a winning record doesn't cut it at big time college programs. Playing for and winning titles is the measuring stick for success at these types of programs. Ask Ryan Day, until he won it this past year, his a$$ was square on the hot seat with an 85% winning % at Ohio St. Just winning isn't enough, Jimbo.

I would love to see Jimbo coach again - just to gauge was it him or 8&4 that was the issue.

I wouldn't hang Jimbo for not winning a natty at 8&4. Many a good coach has died on that hill in College Station.

If you take Jameis “crab legs” Winston out of the equation, Jimbo’s name would be synonymous as Steve Addazio.

I don't know what's going on at 8&4 but there's zero reason they shouldn't be winning national titles. They have the resources, the recruiting base and everything a program needs to be champions. Something is going on behind the scenes keeping them from it. My guess is meddling boosters, the same thing that kept Alabama from winning more titles than they had, until Saban showed up.

I'm laughing at Fisher, not A&M. I actually think your current coach may turn things around. It's a weird flex to think I am making fun of A&M.

I'll bet Jimbo lies awake at night, worrying about what some Bammer thinks while posting from his single wide.
