re: A&M to sign Fisher to an extension and a raise

Let’s be honest. LSU could not afford to pay a coach that kind of money.

Fortunately we don't have to overpay a coach to get him to live in Tuscaloosa.

If fisher is winning multiple national titles then he's worth that contract. He's not my school so I don't care

But from an outside perspective A&M is going to ride jimbo in this new era of college football and they are going all in on him. Once the playoff expands (which it will) they will get a few shots. I think uga will do the same with Kirby soon.

We also haven't discussed the factor of saban eventually retiring or getting to old he won't be able to work anymore. I see this as a move to outlast saban

Could be a stretch.

If I remember correctly, tamu lost its AD over a 10% raise. It also lost a bidding war over Dave Aranda. It also needed to be dragged to court to pay the measly $400,000 buyout for John Chavis.
