i dont see him frickin up at A&M the way he did at Arky or the Falcons but a guy can dream.
I thought he'd turned a corner until he did exactly what he did to Atlanta to Odom and UNLV to take the A&M job. Dude is what he is at this point.

after hearing coach Petrino


What did you expect him to say? “ Our team is loaded with soft as charmin players and our head coach couldn’t manage pop Warner team”.

A&M now has not one, but two HCs who ran their previous programs into the deepest pit of hell. This is going to be fun to watch.


Consider it a double negative and the end result is a resounding positive. Y’all fricked.

Dude has been what he is ... literally ... at every place he's ever been in charge. Even his calling Card - Louisville - he left as a shite show not once but twice. Atlanta. Arky. Arguably the only place he didn't destroy was Western Kentucky.

And now he's in College Station. With Jimbo Friggin' Fischer. This should be good. Really good. What do you do, A&M ? Give him enough rope to hang himself and you ? Or keep him under Jimbo's thumb ?

Denver Harris doesn’t just smoke weed. He got a group together (all gone) and blazed up in the locker room on game day. We are better off without him. He’s already been in a fight at LSU. It will get worse ..

So wait a minute. We are known for overpaying our coaches, yet you expect Petrino to keep a job that is paying him MAYBE a fifth as much? Would you do that? Because if you are answering yes, you aren’t being truthful with yourself. He left Odom for a better opportunity.

The man is getting close to retirement age. Money matters.

Jimbo is well known for the criminals he recruits, Denver may not work at LSU but BK is going to try to get the Aggie out of him.

Good luck. We at least suspended him. You will have a team vote, and all sing Kum-bay-yah. And lose the A&M tag

You are a wannabe LSU fan who couldn’t get into either school.

You sound like a typical woman. Sure, Bobby's done all that before you hooked him. But you'll change him.

Sure. Dream on A&M. Dream on. This time, he'll be different. And he won't do that thing he's always done, every other time to every other program either.

Because this time, it's special.

He’s a hired hand. Like Fisher. If he doesn’t do the job, it won’t be a change from the status quo. Fisher isn’t doing his either.

In a couple years we will spin the wheel and try again.

That’s why I love the preseason. All the possibilities are endless. We are getting better. But so is everyone else. There are several intriguing teams. Georgia and Bama must be the favorites for obvious reasons. But Tennessee is stacked. Auburn has Hugh Freeze who is an offensive genius. LSU is loaded with great players and maybe the best player in college football. Arkansas is very interesting. They have a football dude for a coach and his players will run through walls for him. I love him going for the win against Ole Miss. Coach Kiffin is an arse but is a phenomenal coach and schemes my beloved Aggies like no other. We called a lot of time outs against the Rebs just because of their formation. We have a lot of really young talented players. But it’s yet to be seen if we can optimize their talent. Unlike years past we are as talented as any team we face this year. We must take the next step and show improvement. Not hard to do with last season’s record. We need to beat the teams we are more talented than (winning the games we are supposed to win) and be competitive late in the games we are not favored in. (1 possession game in the 4th) There were some epic failures last year than cannot be repeated. Remember us coming out of a TV timeout, clock runs down and we call our 2nd timeout, we get a penalty and kick a FG because our Coach couldn’t seem to call a play in 40 secs. We need to be better in situational awareness. Finally I love “FTS” philosophy of Coach Petrino. I’m optimistic and hopeful.

One thing for sure I am picking Texas A&M to beat LSU this season. That would not surprise me at all because you knew Jimbo was on a short leach and got it done by beating LSU. Now doing it again this year is now looking more likely because of Bobby will have full control of the offense play calling duty. Congrats!
