Jimbo is the most overrated HC in the country. Why any school would pay him a guaranteed contract after going .500 in the ACC is beyond me! I guess A&M does have a lot of money so maybe they have no problem overpaying a coach and watching their teams flounder in mediocrity.

Desperation to become one of the "big boys" of college football. And the narrative that they "beat" us for him. They did but only after offering 75 mil and we decided to gracefully bow out. They're ok with being invited to the party, not being the host.

He had one of the highest winning percentages in the country before that final season. The last few years have also shown that FSU's issues ran deeper than just Jimbo, and he likely had reasons to leave beyond $75 mil. I think A&M was justified in spending big on a coach with his resume.

That said, I agree with some of the comments about his offense, and think it's fair to question whether he will, or can, adapt at some point.
