I love how the A&M fans only chime in when it fits their agendas. Sure, you got a top tier coach. Let's see how it plays out. I'll wait to see what assistants he brings in and actually have tangible proof of what Jimbo can do without a once in a lifetime QB. We've already witnessed that his team will fall apart without the QB cog.
I personally would've praised the hire last year. However, it seems as though ATM is a few years off of a great team with a very top heavy SEC west.
I hope the crow that the fans eat tastes very well when the team doesn't perform at a national contender level.

Chavis leaving was the greatest thing to happen to LSU in quite some time.
Hopefully Fisher going to a&m works out the same. We shall see though!

we had Saban here, so that blows your theory dumb a&%.

Moves over the last couple of years demonstrate that when LSU lines up a target, they just can't finish for the win. To wit:
Lost Chavis. There was plenty of denials that it could ever happen followed by much gnashing of teeth.
They targeted Jimbo for two years. They flirted, woo'd, and when the chips were on the table, their AD shut it down because he had to negotiate and Jimbo had the gall to press for gain.
I may be wrong but they missed on Herman.
You need some balance to this. Jimbo did win a BCS national championship in 2013. So did Les Miles in 2007 and made another appearance in 2011. 'He gone' by early 2016. First the CFP is completely different from the BCS, but he did make it there only to get throttled the first time he made an appearance. Of course, then the takeover by Clemson over the next 3 years (including this one, so far).
That leads me to this balanced article on the move. Essentially it states in part that he got out before the kitchen got too hot.
quote:
There are certainly a few jobs where coaches can stay forever, and Fitzgerald may have one of them. But there’s also certainly fewer jobs that fit that description. Jimbo Fisher hit a perfect storm this season.
His quarterback got hurt and some weeks his team looked like it was giving the effort of a teenager on the 7-11 overnight shift. His staff had grown stale, and rebooting the program would have involved booting many of them. So Jimbo Fisher did what made the most sense. He bolted for greener pastures and greener dollars, hooking up with his longtime friend and confidant, Texas A&M athletic director Scott Woodward.
If Fisher brings Texas A&M to its first national title since 1939, he’ll forever be a hero in East Texas. If he doesn’t, future generations of Fishers can still have diamond-studded gold bathrooms. Will he replicate his success at Florida State? Probably not. He won double-digit games in six of eight years, 78 percent of his games and went 14-0 in 2013. He should do fine in the SEC West, but those numbers are hard to replicate anywhere.
Fisher had conceded ACC supremacy to Clemson in recent years, and now he’s tasked with ripping SEC West supremacy from Nick Saban. (Sorry, Auburn, it takes two years to make a trend.) Good luck, Jimbo. Fisher is great, but he isn’t perfect. Whoever guaranteed the GNP of a small South American country on Fisher’s contract clearly didn’t watch FSU’s effort in a 35-3 loss at Boston College on Oct. 27. LINK
This move does make the SEC better overall and the SEC West more competitive, but A&M's problem was still on the other side of the ball and Jimbo's recent decision there over the last 3 years should leave you cautiously optimistic. Different coaches make different decisions about personnel. Only two have consistently made the right kind of decisions that keep them in the discussion recently (Saban and Dabo). Maybe Dabo should've been the guy for $75 million?

Shut up and get back to frying those McNuggets.
All Aggies must continue to work hard and contribute their fair share to the “Jimbo Fund.”

It's a fair point. But he could have gone somewhere besides a conference with Saban if thta were his concerrn, don't you think? I mean, honestly, if you were Jimbo, would you rather compete against Dabo, or Saban, Gus, and Kirby?

Not even 24 hours into having a decent coach and you're already talking shite to a team that owns you?
This is an example of why everyone considers Aggies freak retards.

As far as places to live, every SEC college town ranks fairly high in reality. Baton Rough and the Florida Parishes are probably the best place to live in Louisiana. Knoxville, Athens, Fayetteville Tuscaloosa, and Auburn/Opelika are also good places to live and great college towns.
Anyone that says Bryan/College Station is a shithole, or because of the "gay" Yell Leaders it is a bad place to live is just fricking stupid or just trolling. The Brazos Valley is booming, and is a one of the largest biotech hubs in the country. Real estate values are high because the area has wooded rolling hills, and is quite desirable. The area is easy access to Houston, especially IAH, the Med Center, the Energy Corridor, and Uptown. The public schools are good, but your kids will be competing with the kids of scientists, engineers, and biotech executives. (This would be problematic for some of you).
So it's laughable when someone from Mississippi calls Bryan/College Station a backward shithole.

John Chavis coached at LSU for 5 years, that's a good run for a coordinator. And oh what a loss it was!

Jimbo wanted too much, as pretty much everyone on here agrees with.

Herman was always to Texas.

This sounded good in your head, didn't it? After 15 minutes of wording this sentence, you fist-pumped to it.
The most important piece of all of this, you didn't even mention. Alleva prematurely hired Orgeron, that was the worst mistake of the "search" last year. That's why we all want him out.
Dude, terrible post.

Since being at A&M, Chavis has allowed 118 points... FROM LSU ALONE
It must suck to be a faggie.

To be honest, we have an AD that fired the coached and sold all the players down the river over a hoax. I can't believe that he ever got another job after the Duke Lacrosse scandal, much less the AD spot at our school...but here we are.
