Nailed it!!!
 

From the 247 article:

“A&M could have easily fired Fisher after its regular-season finale at No. 15 LSU this Saturday (11 a.m. on ESPN). 

But by making the move when they did, the Aggies began their coaching search with a two-week head start. It also gave them more time to adjust before two program-altering dates arrived on the calendar.

One of those dates, Dec. 4, marks the opening of a 30-day window for the NCAA Transfer Portal. Due to firing Fisher, A&M is already in the middle of a 30-day transfer window. Only true freshman wide receiver Raymond Cottrell has entered the portal so far.

The other date, Dec. 20, is the start of the three-day early signing period for high school recruiting. The Aggies have 20 players who are verbally committed to their 2024 recruiting class, which ranks No. 7 nationally.”

After seeing this round of coaching hires, what are the odds that in 3 years aggy is onto the next guy and still paying 2 former head coaches and parts of their staff?  It’s gotta be over 50%. 

This will definitely happen.

Hiring a head coach can be a crap shoot. Strong, Herman, John Blake, etc. You rarely know in advance whether it will work out or not. 

But one thing is clear. If the assistant coach hires are questionable, the odds of failure go up dramatically. The Aggie odds have of failure have just gone vertical.

Y'all stop bangin' on The Elk. He's building one helluva MAC/C-USA coaching staff.

 

We hear this from everyone at aggy and about 30% of the dopes here when a new coach is hired. No matter what the evidence says people that point it out don't understand how great the hire is because well we have a new coach. Those folks are clinging to hope and not necessarily anything backing it up at the onset of a new coach. Remember the folks that could not believe Tom hired a fired Beck and those that said that Tom is going to show him the way.  This hire is going right down the path we recognize very well where the HC hires rejects and buddies because they are comfortable and not pushing to get the best staff.

Give Elko a break. Someone ate the cards out of his Rolodex.

Anybody at NorthPark today gets what they deserve

Ain't that the truth. My kiddo came home from boarding school yesterday and wanted to go to NorthPark to do little last-minute shopping/hanging out with friends. Fuck that. I told him I'd drop him off but I ain't parking or setting foot in there. (I do, however, have to go out to the Galleria tomorrow to do curbside pickup at Nordstrom. That's bad enough.)

Do they still do that?  Page people at shopping malls?  Because yeah, we should totally be doing that right now.  

"Uh, paging a Mr. Liucci.  Please come to the Northgate information desk.  Mr. Liucci to the desk please."

Then he gets there, "Uh sir, your chin has a call from a Mister El-cojones."

"You mean Coach Elko"

Uh sir, he said El-cojones............for you know, your chin
