  1. I believe the Duke beat cancer 2 times before the last batch got him. Love Dern as an actor. His character in Diggstown is always great. Plus the greatness that is Nebraska Same reason we hate Santa Anna
  2. Because Sharp plays the legislature like a fiddle and largely gets whatever appropriations or anything else he asks for. Football may get the mob stirred up, but as long as Sharp is batting 1.000 on key appropriations a&m wants or doesn't want happening, his job is safe.
  3. Bjork is in over his head. This whole coaching change is giving him enough rope to hang himself so they can replace him. The press conference fiasco when he found out we were moving to SEC was setup for him to embarrass himself.
  4. “We’ve had some excess,” he admits. “Our staff pool for the entire football program was over $13 million. Other programs in the SEC are in the $9 million to $10.5 million range.” Bjorks says other sports are safe some seeing their budgets cuts, and says job cuts will be confined to the football program. “Analysts, recruiting positions, operational positions,” Bjork says when asked where he says fat can be trimmed. He also pointed out how the Aggies’ travel budget was out of sync with other teams. "Our program under Coach Fisher was leaving [for away games] on Thursday nights," Bjork says. "And so that’s added hotel rooms, that’s added meals. Everybody else leaves on Friday for a road game."
  5. Sir I can remember people being excited when we hired an online coach who claimed he liked to use a blocking sled about 15 or so years ago...
  6. Of all the college fan false hope, new coach optimism is by far my favorite.
  7. We did that with Herman and everyone complained that we didn't do a national search....
  8. *BREAKING NEWS* According to ESPN. Texas A&M has named two finalists for the head coaching position. Coach Bud Kilmer West Canan High TX. And Coach Eric Taylor Dillon High TX.
  9. Bjork is the fall guy when this new hire blows up and they can oust Bjork and put the Jimbo fiasco behind them all ar once. They are literotica giving Bjork the rope to hang himself
  10. No he posted about it after the Tech game that we had a great coach lined up to take the job but CDC talked them out of firing Herman after the win. Probably the genesis of his dislike for CDC. His hatred for Campbell I think stems from the "5 star culture" bs he was spewing in Sark's first season....and how whiney he has been the past few seasons. Post 24208 in the below
  11. According to CTJ Matt Campbell was lined up to take the job before the Tech Game.
  12. I mean there was very real concern on here by some that Herman might save his job with a late season win....After all according to those in the know he was lined up to be fired in 2019 when he beat Tech and that was apparently enough for him to save his job for another season.....I would have much rather we fired Herman before Tech then wallowed through that next season with him.
  13. If a "deal is done" this amounts to Zwernermen shouting it from the roof tops. Not saying its done, but if it is as some of you think than BZ isn't going to waste his time talking about someone who isn't getting the job. Now granted, I don't think there is a deal done by any means, and I believe they've been rebuffed by a few of their targets they thought would be no trouble money whipping. The stories I have heard about Bjork are so much worse then what has happened in public....
  14. Lane only wants the Job until Ole Miss ponies up for a raise. Of course this is also from Lucci, so its about as reliable as the OC reporting last year. Its whatever Bjork wants him to broadcast to the faithful.
  15. I completely believe the "Athletic Department funds only" is being used just for optics. Technically the first 2 payments are being covered by boosters, then they claim it will be athletic dept funds. Sure...funds that are there because boosters have donated it to the AD and they then turn around and pay Jimbo..... I don't think the war chest is the given some believe, especially with the price of oil plummeting. If they don't hire the correct guy.....ie they go a similar direction they did with hiring Petrino.....those checkbooks will snap shut in a hurry. There is a minority contingent, that I fully expect to go Red McCombs if this thing drags on, that has been heavily involved in the funding that is ticked that Bjork wasn't shown the door with Fisher, not because they blame him for the contract, they just find him to be incompetent and highly embarrassing any time he opens his mouth....including this most recent time.
  16. Also Bjork somehow has it in his head that they will get this all wrapped up before the portal opens....
  17. Just gonna leave this here. It's all good, but the 1:55 part is in particular well done. https://youtu.be/uWIbZsoaK_M
  18. Did you just call @SydneyCarton a negative troll?
  19. "Ol ugly is better then ol nothing " What happened on the last offensive drive where we all of a sudden ran it down their throat when they knew we were gonna run?
  20. The fact that Texas is ignoring the obvious expert talent evaluations from the 9.95ers....might be some of the best news I've heard in a while.
