When Jimbo rejected A&M just last year... oh wait

quote:

In other words, Jimbo’s name being “mentioned” is code for, “Texas A&M knows it has almost no chance of getting Fisher, but he’s on their wish list nonetheless.”

I’ll compare it to going on an online dating website: You swing for the fences and click on the most attractive women available even though you know you have NO SHOT WHATSOEVER!

I'll tell you the same thing I told Finebaum last year when there were rumors and rumblings about LSU pursuing Jimbo: “Pawwwwl, why would Jimbo leave FSU for a lesser job such as LSU?”

And if LSU is a lesser job than FSU, then Texas A&M is REALLY a lesser job than FSU. At least at LSU, you are the king of an entire recruiting-rich state. At Texas A&M, you will always be the Texas Longhorns’ annoying kid brother.

And, besides, why would Jimbo go to a perennially second-tier SEC program where he has to take on Alabama, Auburn and LSU just to win his division? Do you realize the last time A&M won a conference championship was 20 years ago when the Aggies were in the Big 12?

In 1995, Glen Mason was hired away from Kansas to Georgia and then backed out a week later on Christmas Day.

This isn’t even close in terms of the stage that it was on and the timing considering what was at stake : Les Miles to Michigan. It gave us an iconic moment, it wasn’t done behind the scenes. It was right there at a live press conference as only Les could do it. God I love me some Les.

Joab Thomas selected Bill where is my sunglasses Curry over Bobby Bowden. I mean you can't make this shet up. Bama needed a football coach and not a Sales Manager.

Joab if you're posting on The Rant and read this then F you sport.

I didn’t know that about Bear. That’s a great story.

In 1987 LSU turned down both Steve Spurrier and Mike Shanahan when they chose Mike Archer.
