If true, pretty clear Stoops told them no because they aren't hirining anyone better than him resume wise

Do you know if Stoops was interviewed?

No idea. KSR reported he was offered the job (pending board approval) then after talking with his staff, Stoops decided to turn it down.
quote:

“The A&M reports about Stoops accepting are not totally accurate. Stoops was offered the job tentatively but there was approval needed to fully offer and that was for Sunday morning,” Jones reported. “A&M reports say that approval might not have come. I can’t say (because) I am not there. But during that time, Stoops talked to staff and those around him and became convinced he didn’t want to leave. … He then made the decision to end the process before this morning. It may be both sides decided on a different path. Either way, the whole thing fell apart just after midnight.”


I would imagine there was some form of interview since there was a tentative offer but not certain. If you wanna read the article

It matters if he was offered the job without an interview

I gave you what UK fans have from their side.

Interview or no interview, doesn't matter in grand scheme of things, but if your admin offered him a job without an interview beforehand that would be pretty dumb imo

I hear you. But it matters to A&M whether the AD is throwing out job offers without anyone knowing what is going on.

Yes I think the aTm fan base, aTm local media, and the administration had more to do with it than Stoops did. But with the statement he put out should have Kentucky fans worried. He never said he wasn’t going anywhere, he said for “RIGHT NOW”. That almost seems like he is still looking to leave UK when the opportunity comes.

Can we get a running list of the coaches that have turned down the Aggies?

I know Elko has. Basically every major coach has. Are they really gonna go with a position coach?

lol, the number 1 Kentucky sports outlet tweeted out a “thanks for everything, you’re going to be missed” tweet last night

And then deleted it after A&M announcing they weren’t hiring Stoops

I would have done the same. Way less pressure at Kentucky. It’s a smart move.

They pulled the offer cause Bjork tried to pull a fast one on the boosters, bjork will be gone soon too. Absolute clown show
Bjork was a joke at OM, and he’s still a joke. At OM he managed to have 3 programs under NCAA investigation simultaneously. Why the hell aTm hired him is a mystery.
