    I have to tell you, I don't know if I can handle this if it is true. They are speculating on the aggie 247 board that, because Elijah Robinson is still an employee at Texas A&M and because he is c

 Nooooooo he needs to stay forever.

How long before they are talking about how they should just “go grab” CDC. Those fucks are so delusional when it comes to shit like this. Look no further than Elko to see what kind of pull they really have.

What the hell is wrong with tOSU?  Do they want to light money on fire and be irrelevant?

Who the fuck looks at the aggy athletic department and says give me that?

The amount of money he has fleeced from donors in return for nothing is very impressive.

The thought of Bjork getting a promotion after the A&M coaching debacles is laughable. Maybe his agent is just getting him a raise from the Aggies. "Oh, Ohio State wants you? Name your price!"

I say we keep quiet and let tosu make that mistake. I have full faith in aggy to make a replacement hire that is commensurate with all their other hires. 

Plonsky?

Man. This is a tough one. Don't know who to pull for.

Their pool of candidates will be pretty weak after they see that:

1. The athletic budget has 7 million of dead money until 2031 greatly limiting what they will be able to do in basketball and any other jobs that come open. 

2. After the Stoops fiasco it is evident that the AD is a powerless position in College Station with the real power lying in the hands of BMD and social media perception. 

3. Getting stuck with Mike Elko at another 7 million/year with no record of success. It would be a gamble for a great AD to take that job knowing they don't have any say in what happens and a 50/50 shot or being stuck with another lame duck coach for 5 years.

Pretty please Ross, fire Ryan Day and hire Jimbo.

Mark Stoops does have a B10 upbringing and would jump at that job when Day leaves this year or next.

What has Bjorn accomplished to warrant consideration? Figured his next, and final, job would be Sam Houston...

Aggies should extend Bjork for, say, 10 years/$95 million. 

Fully guaranteed, with no buyout, of course.

Bjork would almost certainly make the next HC hire if he lands at fOSU. Day is on a very short rope.

I don’t think they let ADs hire football coaches at OSU.

Bjork was hired by aggy in 2019. What besides the fucked up Jimbo extension has aggy athletics done in his tenure? WTF is tOSU thinking?

 

First comes the commitment, then the right coach, then the culture change. Jimbo (1 natty, 1 playoff), Buzz (Elite 8, 3 Sweet 16s) and Schloss (5 CWS) have been in Aggieland a combined 5 years and 5 minutes. Next come the championships.

Not counting the interim AD, this will be Aggy's fifth AD since 2012.

There's no way. No school would be stupid enough to sign a coach to a contract for $100MM guaranteed with no buyout. Oh wait, nevermind.

Can’t forget the non existent offsetting language in the contract lmaooooo

The tOSU Board of Regents were in session facing a heavy agenda. It got late. A thunderstorm roared over the building and out went the lights. Such a storm as rarely seen. An assistant went outside and dragged a couch into the conference room and lit it afire for light and warmth.

The light was unholy. Voices could be heard. Terror gripped the hearts of all present. Before them materialized a fearsome figure in metal eyeglasses and favoring the skinned knuckles of his right hand.

Woo--Woody, is that you?

You must hire a Bjork!

Is that some kind of bird?

Bjork! Hire a Bjork!  For AD!

Yes, Coach Hayes! Of course!

The apparition faded away. The storm passed. The lights returned. The couch was dragged to a window and shoved through down to the street below.

A Bjork? Somebody Google that!

Sir, there is a singer named Bjork and the AD at A&M is named Bjork.

Fuck. Motherfucker. Goddamn it! Tell us, does the singer have any experience whatsoever with college sports? I mean, has she even sung at a halftime or dated a player? Anything!

Sorry, sir. No dice. 

Sigh. Has she even seen a college football game?

Not likely sir. Shall I call the A&M athletic department?

NO! Not yet. Call the singer and offer to train her for the job. 

Yes sir!

The Elk has a boss that didn't hire him a month into his tenure. Amazing.

This seems:

  1. Genius on Bjork's part. Get out of the gasoline-filled dumpster before the match gets thrown in.
  2. Genius on Bjork's part because of the way that head coaching search went; what the actual fuck? I wouldn't want to work there either if I can't do my job. He can also get rid of those ugly fucking sports coats.
  3. Dumb AF on fOSU's part. Did you not watch how the coaching search went for A&M? If Bjork can't get things aligned to land his guy, how do you think that'll go at fOSU. You think this guy is going to help get you past Michigan when he hasn't won his division at any P5 stop?
  4. Smart AF on fOSU's part because they are hiring someone who may accept less autonomy in decision-making based on what happened with A&M.

To fOSU:

So Bjork tried to save aggy from themselves by trying to force them to hire Stoops and guarantee that they could keep Robinson as the DC and be a solid 8 or 9 or 10 win team for near future. Instead the aggy booster media complex killed the deal and Bjork said fuck it, Im out...

Maybe OSU doesn't care about sports, and just wants way better facilities.

I saw one Buckeye in the twitter replies praising Bjork’s strength in “fundraising and NIL” in response to someone asking what else he has accomplished besides one of the worst contract extensions in the history of man.
