They have been an afterthought their entire time in the PAC. This is comical.
UCLA has played in 2 pac12 championship games and are 0-2
CU has played in 1 pac 12 championship game and is 0-1
looks like we were both an afterthought in our time in the pac 12

And the rest of the conference has filled the void of that awful time in Texas football history to win how many national championships? When was the last time a Big 12 team other than one of those two did it?
I still think Okie State would have won it in 2011 if they had been in the game. That was a total screw job.

Depth is the problem. What I also question with Deon's stated style of raiding the transfer pool over recruiting is long term development of younger players? Is it better to plug & play someone from another school with experience over HS players with more potential but need time to adjust and grow?
He has said that he wants 40% portal, 40% grad transfers and 20% high school.

Brilliant Fox! Nothing like 10am Mountain games so you can get your ratings.
I went up for the husker game. 10am was not bad. Still get to catch all the afternoon games.

Correct.
Most of the real talent left after the 2021 season.
All he did in that meet was challenge them and some chose to bolt and 10 survived. The starting safety Trevor Woods (from Katy, TX) was one of the 10 and had a pick in the endzone against TCU

Does he count as a retread if he worked his way up to finally getting a chance as a head coach and has had some success doing it?
Either way, it's probably not a good idea to piss off Deon before their game, but I have no problem with it. They are going to be underdogs anyway, might as well get as much media for the coach and program as you can for the week and see if you can't ruffle some feathers.
There is no I in team but there is an I in Deion.🙂

45 minutes ago, Frank Drebin said:Liucci: Jimbo Fisher's extension will be another 'bargain' for Texas A&M
By Billy Liucci
September 1, 2021
Key notes from Billy Liucci interview
You're going to see this contract be 10 years, starting from now, with an average right around $9 million per year. You're starting the existing deal over with a significant raise to make him the second-highest paid coach in the SEC behind Nick Saban and one of the highest-paid in college football. This is a great deal. We're going to look at it again as a great bargain.
We've been talking about it for the last three years and how wrong people were the first time. Now they're doing it again. People don't seem to understand the no-buyout thing, and that makes me laugh. The buyout is $9 million a year, $90 million guaranteed.
Nick Saban doesn't look like he's going to retire anytime soon, but say Alabama comes after Jimbo Fisher in three years when Saban is done. That's the only school that could take Fisher with the money that Texas A&M is paying. If Alabama does that, it means the next three years have been really good in Aggieland.
A buyout does nothing. When was the last time a school didn't hire a coach they wanted because of a buyout? Do you think a one-year buyout, another $9 million, would keep A&M from going to get a coach? The buyout is $90 million. It also keeps the coach here. It's like the SEC not having a grant of rights. The SEC basically says, "You want to leave? Go."
I don't think there is any danger of Fisher leaving. The danger is losing money.
If it doesn't work, you lose money. Everyone is making a big deal about it, but it's like me and Olin living in the same neighborhood. If I saw him driving a Maserati, that's Olin's business. Not mine. The way the media is acting would be like me walking around the neighborhood calling Olin an idiot for spending that money on a car. Who's the idiot in that scenario?
A&M is three years into this, and they have a pretty good idea of what they're investing in. People are saying it's only one good year, but it's not. It's one great year and three years of progress. Jimbo's first year was a nice, strong season. They finished ranked and won a bowl game, playing great football at the end of the year. His third year was a top-five finish, an Orange Bowl championship and a legitimate argument to be in the playoff.
In 12 years as a coach, Fisher has a national title, a playoff berth and another top-five finish. He probably has five top-ten finishes in 12 years to go along with that. At what point do you look at that resume and say that Fisher is an elite head coach in this game? He is. It's not debatable. Texas A&M has a coach that is among the very best, the top five, in this game.
If you look at what Fisher is doing in recruiting and don't feel extremely confident in your investment, I don't know what to tell you.Regarding the timing, coaches don't like negotiating during the season. What if Texas A&M reached the playoff this year and LSU spiraled? I think Texas A&M did the right thing. We got our guy, and he's locked up for as long as he wants to coach.This guy won a national title. He won 27 of 28 games with Jameis Winston in 2013 and 2014. People want to say it was all Winston, but you can't take away a guy's best player. If you take away Vince Young, what did Mack Brown do? Take away Joe Burrow, Ed O doesn't win a championship.
I know what Dan Mullen has done, and I know what Jim Harbaugh has done. What in the hell have they done that Jimbo hasn't done? Mullen won a New Year's Six game, and Florida caught some criticism for that extension. The blowback shows how big the spotlight is on Texas A&M and Jimbo Fisher.
For the people that say A&M isn't relevant, you're hearing most of that from Texas, Oklahoma and some from LSU. They're whining fake tough guys.
If you say a negative thing about Oklahoma, the Sooners go insane. Somebody asked me if I'd rather have Lincoln Riley or Jimbo at Texas A&M, at the answer is Jimbo. Riley is a good coach, but he coaches in a league where he has five times the talent as anybody he plays. They're both good coaches, but it's apples to oranges. Jimbo Fisher is a great fit at Texas A&M.
Texas might be the most delusional fanbase in American sports. They're loud on Twitter. They get these talking points, and no matter how bad their team is or how good things are going in College Station, they cannot come off their talking points. How much money did they pay to fire Herman and hire Steve Sarkisian? We know what Sark has done. You want to boil it down to Fisher not winning a title in three years? You spent $75 million to hire Sarkisian.
LSU is just scared. They had that great year and smoked the Aggies in 2019, but they've lost two of three to Texas A&M. Jimbo Fisher is the guy they've tried to hire twice. Ed Orgeron is a trainwreck of a coach, and they know it. They were hoping they could possibly hire Fisher at some point, and the Aggies just put up a wall around College Station.
A day ago, what was the big cry coming out of Austin, Baton Rouge and Norman? That Fisher would be in Baton Rouge in a year. That was the battle cry from those three fanbases, and they wouldn't shut up about it. Today, 10 years and $90 million later, A&M is stupid for paying it? It's a constantly moving target.- 5

And that’s fine. Referencing mundane shit “Kendall Briles didn’t say hi to me at a highschool camp 😩😩😩” 2 weeks in a row in post game pressers after solid wins is still fucking annoying. Am interested to see how long the streak goes though, can’t wait for Shedeur to say they beat Oregon because Bo Nixs mom didn’t say god bless you after he sneezed one time.
Already covered

I love historical reminders like this. Here's a little timeline.
July 21,2021 UT & OU announce that they are joining the SEC. The SEC will now have 16 teams.
July 21st-Sept 10th. The remaining Eight B12 schools are in full blown panic. They are all worried that the PAC12 will add the four best remaining Eight and that their school might not make the cut.
August 24th, 2021. The ACC, B1G & ACC try to counter the SEC coup with a piece of paper that loosely defines the meaningless alliance. It appeared stupid and meaningless at the time and it still appears that way. The Alliance may have eased the PAC12's mind for expansion. The PAC12 was convinced that they were super stable and were locked in as one of the top four conferences and that the BIG12 was on the outside looking in.
September 10th, 2021. The Big12 Adds Cincy, BYU, UCF & UH. The BIG12 is stabilized and united. Meanwhile, behind the scenes the B1G wants to get to 16 teams just like the SEC. They begin back channel negotiations with USC/UO&ULCA. The Alliance will go down in the football realignment history books as the PAC12'S Neville Chamberlain moment.
Chamberlain, you could hold his head in the toilet, he'd still give you half of Europe.

Nothing about that person's uniform has anything to do with service in the nation's military. Not a single thing. Every thing about the uniform was created and devised by their civilian staff. Let that sink in for a while. Outside of College Station, Texas, it means nothing. And within College Station, Texas it usually means about nothing.
