So the bowl matchup pits the #3 Big XII team vs the #9 SEC team?

it's where ever the sec decides to send each sec team.

The SEC doesn't rank order their bowl tie-ins, they just allocate them for the best matchups.

They do tend to be the lower ranked team since they always get 2 or 3 NY6 entries.

They love their national championship coaches, what about Ed O?  That would be a thing of beauty and a joy forever.

They'd go after Urban Meyer and, if they could come up with the money, I think he'd consider it. UM loves attention and aggy loves to deify their football coach. The relationship would be a self-sustaining positive feedback loop of circle-jerkery. They'd let him run the program like he's The Captain from Cool Hand Luke and claim that anyone questioning his abuse of players is just some tea-sippin' liberal pussy.

But I don't think he'd take less than what they paid Jimbo and I'm not sure if they can come up with the money. 

Meyer knows he won't be there 10 years or even 6. A&M would likely have to pay 15-20MM per season or stretch it out over ten years with another guaranteed contract to pay Meyer Jimbo money. I think Meyer would require more than what the prior losing coach was paid.

I don't know shit about Meyer, but if the Aggies come up with the money mentioned above they'd be in for about $30MM a year for the short contract (Fisher and Meyer combined) or $17MM for a longer contract.

There's no guarantee, as pointed out, that Meyer will succeed at A&M. It's been a long time since he was at a mid-tier program. Maybe the facilities facilities facilities and the magic of Kyle Field and participating in Midnight Yell will draw him out of retirement.

If he fails, the money the Aggies would be paying coaches that didn't succeed would be enormous. It'd be funny, too.

Urban Meyer is a college football HOF coach that may come back to a blue blood or blue blood-lite that's ready to win a NC in the next 2-3 years. Honestly, after the NFL debacle, I'm not sure he's got the interest to come back at all, but he's not coming back to spend his time rebuilding a dumpster fire in fucking college station.

A&M is the only program insulated and tone def enough to actually do this and feel happy about it. Sadly, Briles would probably kill it at aggy if he could find people who want to play for him.

i think the mistake with this is that Ed O actually loves (loved) LSU and isn't known to be a super petty asshole that folks generally don't like being around.

ive never heard of anything like this with Jimbo, for example:

Quote

 

On the “Pardon My Take” podcast, Peter Schrager shared the story of Orgeron crashing McVay’s wedding and it’s hilarious.

“Saturday afternoon, we’re at the pool, it’s all these NFL coaches,” Schrager said. “LaFleur is there, all these guys. Jay Gruden comes by. Everything’s great. Eddie O is there, shirtless, looking like a million bucks, just glistening in all his glory. And I’m like, ‘I didn’t know Sean had anything to do with Eddie O.’ He’s taking photos with everyone at the pool, and everyone wants to take a photo with Eddie O.

“Later on, McVay pulls me aside and is like, ‘How about Eddie O being at the pool?’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, when were you–.’ He’s like, ‘Never met him before.’”

Schrager continued: “Coincidentally, Eddie O at the pool, just mixing it (up). Not invited to the wedding, but in the mix and having a blast, drinking with everybody. Was the coolest guy at the pool. Was not invited to the wedding, not there at night, no connection to McVay. Eddie O, LA, poolside, just living the best life.”

 

still think Jimbo is going to be petty as hell, leak stuff about A&M over the next decade, do everything he can to negatively recruit them at every opportunity at his next job all while taking his guaranteed money and pulling a Charlie Strong and getting fired after 3 years at his next job.

all of this to say, i want to be friends with that cajun, hard partying bastard. who do you want to spend an evening hearing stories from - Jimbo or Ed Orgeron?

He's about to turn 68.  It would be the aggiest move of all time to take the PR hit on a coach that far removed from his prime.

Depends. Is Jimbo remarried and if so, what does the wife look like?

Fun fact about these two coaches. 

Both were head coordinators for the Giants, Lombardi offensive, Landry defensive. Just before they both left the Giants to head coach Dallas and Green Bay, they traded their play books, and now you know the rest of the story.

To be fair, I'm not sure I'd be able to understand a word out of either of their mouths

Jimbo's only real talent is he's a damn good snake oil salesmen. 

It's incredible hearing him speak sometimes. He will just blatantly lie about stuff and ramble on for 20 minutes about why he is right. I've never seen anything like it. I think his only talent as a coach is he can convince 17 year olds and their families to play for him with just absolute stupidity. I would love to see what this moron says in living rooms during recruiting visits because I guarantee he's just completely making up shit.

He may not have meant to, but I see it another way.  He's managing to trash Dumbo and aggy in one sentence.

He's built a championship roster and can barely get his team above .500.  And,

The Jimbo postmortem will be fun. I think aggy will remember him as the best recruiter in the history of the program. Bonus points awarded for sticking his finger in Saban’s eye on the recruiting trail.

And those teams were still light years ahead of where the Ags are now. And on their way to a “natty.”

Edgerrin Cooper, aggy's one truly great player this season, absolutely shafted by not making the Butkus Award finalists. 

Scuttlebutt that aggy might have forgotten to send in the paperwork.
