Shane


I think if things go real bad for them

Sark and heupel could be gone

Elko and vernbles aren’t leaving

You don’t understand football in Texas. A&M went to the playoffs last year. Texas spent an absurd amount on NIL this offseason.

If Texas wins the SEC, our billionaires will light the money on fire. It is as predictable as the sun rising and setting.



Okay

But wouldn't they be better off matching the Texas spending on NIL?

Unless you have a guy who you think is the next Spurrier lined up (in which case you shouldn't have extended Elko)

Will the high school class not save him?


I thought he was very well liked there as well with boosters and admin

Elko was well liked. Not so much anymore. You can watch TexAgs to get an idea where a coach stands. Liucci is the mouth piece for the AD.

There is still a long fire Elko thread that hasn’t been taken down this morning. Would have been deleted before this year within minutes. Elko has about one to two years left at most if he doesn’t make major staff changes.

And he looks too stubborn to do so

Hot take: I’d say Lebbys seat could get very hot if they have another collapse like last year. Especially with all the Kamario hype.
This is a hot take, but looking at MSU's remaining schedule, it's got downward spiral potential.

Beamer is a dead man walking. Venables should be on a scorchingly hot seat but instead he was inexplicably given an extension just a couple of weeks ago so presumably he's safe.

I think Beamer is the only SEC coach that might get fired.

I live in Houston area and know a ton of Aggies… not billionaires… but they know the handwriting is on the wall.

$60Million to the Money folks of Aggie World… isn’t anything. If he goes 7-5, 6-6, he probably doesn’t make it.

They've been doing that for decades and it hasn't had much impact.

Might be time to reevaluate the strategy.

That is correct. Our billionaires cannot handle sucking when Texas is good. And Texas’ are the same though they won’t admit it.

Elko dug his own grave with his layup OC and DC replacements. Refusing to bench Reed will help hasten his exit as well

Drink will be safe if he goes 8-4 and TAMU aint firing anyone this year. The only answer is Shane and he may not last through Oct.

It would be Elko but A&M can’t afford two $100m buyouts

I could see A&M giving Elko one more season. But then again, lose to Arkansas and I wouldn’t even give him that …

I would be shocked if Elko is fired for going 6-6. He will be on a very hot seat in 27 though.

I dont know why the announcers harp on Sellers regression so much. Their offense sucks.


The offense sucks because Sellers has regressed so badly. He's been ruined by poor coaching in Shula and getting That Bag.

But yes, NepoShane has to be on the Green Mile.

I know an SC insider. Beamer is done. He knows it, and is coaching like it.

Tennessee’s quarterback will definitely get better. We have the number one running back coming in next year. We will hit the transfer portal and get offensive linemen.

Beamer is definitely out this year. Interested to see who SC hires.
