Brandon Prouse has done a heckuva job at Deweyville.

You’re probably exactly right. If I’m Björk, he’s my first call though. He’d have to tell me no. And maybe it was for all we know. And I’m no fan of B/CS but I’d take it any day over Detroit. Might be 109,001 on places I’d most like to live in America.

What about Dan Campbell? I know it’s usually the other way around and college guys move up to NFL. But it’s not unprecedented and he is a member of the cult. Guy is super likable which usually helps recruiting and I think he’s one of the better coaches in the league. And A&M can certainly afford to pay him NFL money.

Well tonight is the best I’ve seen them play under the Brooks regime. Also the best crowd we’ve had in a while in a big win over UTSA. I don’t know if the Roadrunners are going to be very good or not, but it’s still a game we would have pissed away in the past couple of years. Hopefully a harbinger of things to come. We shall see.

Neither had Kirby. I think at this point, everyone is looking for the next Kirby. Which might be to say, looking for the next Saban as it appears Kirby isn’t slowing down any time soon.

Me too. I really hope they go a different direction. I think he’s what Tech was trying to find with McGuire. The next Art Briles. Great coach with all the connections to the Texas HS coaches.

Phil Knight won’t let this one go without a fight. Football coaches don’t get paid enough to money whip him. But he did spend some time at UGA so you never know if he just wants to get back to the SEC. His agent needs to tell him to be quiet though so at a minimum they can get that fat raise/extension.

I do agree with you though. Of the ones mentioned, I think he would be the best fit/surest bet. I don’t know that Lanning is attainable. I don’t think Oregon/Phil Knight is going to let another one get away without a fight. The only issue I would have with Meyer is he doesn’t seem to last anywhere for very long. But I don’t think there’s a more proven commodity available at the college level anywhere other than Smart, Saban and Swinney. Speaking of Dabo, he is another interesting idea. And he’s already accustomed to coaching in a cult situation.

😂🤣

There’s more than one of them?

You would think. That might be the worst hire in a string of bad hires.

$75M buyout. And they JUST gave several of the assistants extensions. Hunter Biden is doing a masterful job running aggy’s athletic department.

[Hidden Content] Odd timing. Colorado fails to qualify for a bowl yesterday’s loss. Surely not huh? That would literally be the aggyest hire ever 😂

Good luck the rest of the way! That team looks built for a run to me.

Buenas suerte amigo

Good grief. Whether Josh stays or leaves, I wish him the best. He has done a TON for OF in his short tenure, not the least being his job as AD. He has made several “home run” hires and has taken his job as overseer of ALL sports seriously. As for the game, when you fall several scores behind, it is tough to navigate your way back with the slot T. Same could be said for the wishbone in the old days. It’s an offense built for keeping possession of the ball, shortening games, etc. It’s still going to be better suited for the type of kid OF generally gets. The Bobcats are simply not going to have superior athletes once you get to the playoffs (a round or two in especially) most of the time. It is what it is. One game that gets out of hand and all of sudden it’s the coaches, the system, etc. Maybe junior just got punched in the mouth and got his tail kicked?

Agreed. Tic didn’t deserve the treatment he got. But I’m not sure Marco did anything well in his short tenure as AD. I am hoping this is the year they figure it out. A guy can hope lol

Hopefully a back breaker.

We shall see. Blew out a bad NAIA team and then played it respectably close I guess against a mediocre SMU team. We shall see. Probably a make or break year for this staff if I had to guess.

I agree. Really rooting for them this year, primarily because of Hef. Believe it or not, he’s a pretty marketable commodity and already has a degree. He’s a loyal guy playing for his dream school. I hope he and his team have a storybook season

Thought BC and OF both looked good against HJ. Didn’t see any of the BC/OF one. HJ missing its top 5 or 5 of its top 6 guys. #20 from BC I really liked and they had a scrappy group. I know they were missing a couple as well, one of which apparently may not play this year who has some size. OF has a couple of key kids still in football too but they are better and deeper than I realized. The scales kid may have been the best player in the gym today. Kid can go.

I still don’t know how we even won that game. Very kind of K St in refusing to take that victory we kept trying to give them. Super sweet parting gift

Yeah that was way premature. He’s been awful. Since the first couple of drives. My bad.

If he leaves, he leaves. But you can’t convince me Maliik isn’t a better option right now.

At the BC/HJ/OF 3 way scrimmage this morning. It’s preseason basketball so it’s not polished but the officiating has been about perfect, especially out if the chute. Looks like a fourth of the chapter is here but these first three guys are all pretty good.
