Much better hire than Stoops or Kelly
you mean Kelly that beat your gumps year one and won the west, and the coach that stayed with you score for score with the worst defense LSU has ever had EVER that you had to resort to dirty tactics to win? Yea enjoy that L against UGA after your struggle win against hapless Auburn. We blew them out badly. You got one to 2 years tops left of Saban and the fall will be long and hard. Hell it already started a couple years ago and this will be another 2 loss season maybe 3 when y’all don’t show up for the bowl game like always

I trust KSR over aggie message boards on this.

You’re paying a mediocre coach 9 M a year and aren’t doing anything about it. We’re trying to figure out how to win more than 8 games a year.

You all tried to hire said "mediocre" coach who has more ten win seasons than A&M has since joining the SEC

If we are mediocre, you all are a dumpster fire in a sewer pipe

You're just mad that you guys are still stuck with Stoops. Lol! All my UK friends were ecstatic at the thought of him being gone.

I would have been fine either way. Stoops is decent but not irreplaceable. The bigger loss would have been the coordinators.

Guess Ags upped their buyout clause offer in the past 24 hrs lol. I guess Elko then uninformed Duke that he was staying.

Elko Tells Duke He's Staying

There is nobody A&M could’ve hired that this board wouldn’t have laughed at minus unrealistic candidates like Smart or Saban. You hire Lanning or Kiffin and they are laughing at the money you paid. You hire Elko and they laugh because he isn’t a splash.

That’s kind of how this board reacts to any coaching hire anywhere

Jimbo had a better record, bigger wins, higher finishes, etc than Stoops. We fired him. We were outraged when some wanted to hire Stoops. We’re not the same.

Yes. Clearly we are better since our coach told you no.

Ironically after you all fired fisher, you wanted his protégé. Sad imho

I tried telling them this, dude signed a contract through 2029. His buyout even not very much per year would add up quick.

Elko isn't a realistic option just because of his contract.

No you're not.

Bear Bryant actually had a post-WWII season at Kentucky where they could claim a national title.

But he couldn't do it at Aggy.

Your fans and donors got pissed and supposedly "revolted" against the Stoops hire.

Only to hire Great Value Bob Stoops.

Knowing full well you need a complete overhaul and program identity from the old Aggy ways to make it in the SEC.

Only to hire that one coach that knows, understands and coached you before.

Interesting strategy lets see how that works out for ya.

How long will it take Elko to win the West.

Who not named Saban actively has won more games than Kelly?

I think if you didn't have to pay Jimbo $75 million, Elko would have been easy to get for you.

Cope, your coach was ready to run away to A&M but the A&M boosters said NO
