Considering that A&M Invested $210M in Their Current Football Team…

(That’s $30M for NIL on its 2022 recruiting class, a re-upping of its $100M, all guaranteed deal for Jimbo, and $80M in payouts to prior coaches)

When they currently have a spectacular 3 win/4 loss record, and will likely end up 6 and 6, if they’re really lucky…

Do you think that the Aggie alums who coughed up all that cash might be starting to be experiencing a bit of Buyer’s Remorse…. ??


And exactly how much money spent per win work out to anyway?


GEAUX TIGERS!!!

I'll admit it's kinda fun after how they've acted with LSU being down and their recruiting class. But we should really be happier for LSU rather than suffering.

I’m kind of hoping they win out until they lose to us. I want jumbo to keep doing just enough to not get fired so they don’t hire a good coach.

They aren’t firing Jimbo strait up.

He will most likely be accused of misconduct or mistreatment of a player or some recruiting violation so they can tie that contract up in court and settle for half or so.

I really hate Texas A$M. I wonder how united their dressing room is or is it filled with envy and jealousy?

I think their dressing room is a lot like ours probably was in 2021 for different reasons. Bad chemistry and culture. Jimbos coordinator(s) will be sacrificed and he will most likely be back next year.

LSU needs to beat them like a drum this year to help with recruiting. Also, I’m glad the Johnsons are at t a&m, I don’t think we go after Daniels, if max was still on the team. Daniel’s is really developing into a special qb. Jmho

That’s almost more than an NFL team

Not sure just how accurate the $30 million figure is for the #1 Class but what in Gods name has Fisher done over the last few seasons that warranted an extension & raise?

A&M finished 9-1 in 2020, which to me was a throw away season & really not indicative of anything other than having better luck than most other programs w/keeping their star players from Quitting (opting out).

I didn’t know 8&4 re-upped again on Jimbo.

How many millions of $$$ does it take an Aggie to win 9 games?

That sounds like a familiar tactic.

A certain stripper that got Mike Price fired might still be available…

Just food for thought but what does it say that Texas A&M can waste more money on a bad coaching hire than the entire GDP of some countries.

Even if they can't get him to settle they could probably hold it up in court for 2-6years saving up money for the full amount, then appeal the decision for another year or 2 and finally pay him off 5-8 years after. All the while paying for a new coach.

Texas A&M is basically the LIV golf tour of college football
