Because some of these players aren't as good as people think they are.

Doesn't have a Heisman trophy QB"? He's had several 4-5 star QB's, best as I can recall. In the 5 years he's been there, he's had the time to recruit & develop a stud QB. He has not. Rather, he's on pace, again, for another 8-4 season.
Alot of Heisman type QBs have something special about them that stands out from just being a 4 or 5*. JW would have been good no matter who was at FSU. But he's had more than enough time for this team to be all his fault.

Jimbo is the original Ed O. Been around enough winners as assistants that he can sell a story on knowing what it takes. Good, a bit shady, at getting recruits to come to campus. Probably makes a ton of promises, has trouble keeping up with all the deals he made with those kids.
May be able to make a run, if he gets enough talent and the stars align. Jimbo did so with Winston, Orgeron did with Burrow.

But if/when adversity strikes, all that bullshite comes back and rears it's ugly head, and the players stop buying in.

The answer is in the question. You are who you are.

Oh, and Jimbo sucks as a coach and should not have been hired.


One reason he was hired is A&M got into a bidding war against another SEC program (guess who?) that desperately wanted to hire him as their HFC. After LSU lost, they hired someone who anyone could easily see wasn't up to the job. Someone even far less successful than Jimbo.

losing is a cult ritual at Collie Station. Aggies think their “traditions” are cool, but they’re not, they’re cult rituals.

It couldn’t and never will be. poor delusional aggies

Because A&M routinely gets embarrassed on business decisions. Adidas instead of Nike, paying over $100 million to never string together back-to-back winning conference records, etc.

a&m just doesn’t associate itself with smart leadership. And you’d think they’d be used to that by now considering the actual students that graduate from there aren’t that smart either

They haven't spent enough money. Another 40-50 millions should do the trick.

If Jimbo could put his ego aside, hire a good OC, and relinquish the offense to them A&M would be a great program because hes always been able to recruit.

Don't see that ever happening though.

Because Jimbo is a terrible coach.

This isn't a difficult question.

Exactly, Jimbo is a smart man and has aggy right where he wants and is about to beat-up on the SEC next year. Why else would aggy pay the man $$$$ 9,000,000 a year. A MILLION A YEAR…

It cannot be overstated how much your school’s entire culture breeds mediocrity on the field. Putting this all on Jimbo is incorrect as It does not matter who your coach is.
