I am shocked that some of them have actually made the connection about Jimbo towing the line in recruiting in order to protect his huge buyout.

Dave’s last Texas vs A&M call should be in a museum. Couldn’t even announce the field goal was good. “it’s over they win….”

 

 

 

At least he said “Texas” instead of “tu”. 😄

Good lord. We could write these posts as parody. It's unbelievable how quickly they magnetize towards the "gimme me 3 stars who want to be aggies!" nonsense. Just a pure loser mentality.

I'm not a film guru like some folks here, but I generally get around to watching a bunch of the players that sign with Texas and our enemies each recruiting cycle. I can count on one hand the amount of times I've actually watched a lowly rated player that Texas took instead of the 5 star that they missed on and said "shit, I think the guy Texas signed might actually be better." 

Give me the highest rated guys Texas can sign who aren't pure mercenaries and ATM can have the 2 and 3 star guys who "just want to be an ag" every recruiting cycle, please.

I think the term aggy is looking for when describing 5* guys that don’t want to go to aggy is “uppity.”  They like their 3* guys to be quiet, hard working guys who don’t call attention to themselves. Far better fit for aggy than those uppity 5*s.

The funniest part about these posts is that none of them are even willing to consider the notion that Texags, as an apparatus for the program, isn't saying a whole lot about the team's spring performances due to the whole team and staff being a dysfunctional mess.

The fact that they blame the portal and NIL for the woes of the day is so fucking on the nose, chef’s kiss. Nevermind they can’t bring anyone in despite being “rich”, and nevermind other schools seem to be doing just fine retaining kids and attracting portal targets. It’s almost like it’s not the portal that’s the problem. Nah, couldn’t be Jimbo and team culture. It’s the kids that are out of touch for not essentially being trapped at aTm after they sign, unlike the good ole’ days. 
 

it’s weird, it’s like a culture of people who tacitly approve and miss slavery. The kind of people who would glorify a murdering war criminal with a statue of their campus, revered to this day. Weird.

The hobbit is burning aggy to the ground harder than he did FSU, and there are still aggy thinking things aren't a disaster. The jimbo+aggy delusion combo is spectacular

Fsu was able to get a championship out of his tenure, and was ready, willing, and able to jettison him. 
 

aggy was the stooge they unloaded him on, paid substantially more, haven’t gotten a National, conference, or division championship, and aren’t able to separate from him. 
 

not sure who the more delusional are- the ones that think he can still get the job done or the ones that think they can just get rid of him as soon as now.

The only scenario that scares me about this titanic failure is that it is unraveling too fast. If they shit the bed this season and let Jimbo go, I am worried they are going to fall ass backwards into Jeff Traylor.

Bringing Elko back would concern me. Traylor wouldn’t. 

I believe the price to get rid of Jimbo and coaches will still be in the $150-200mm range? They'd be a bigger laughing stock for paying all of that out than having another shitty to mediocre season. They won't have a high rating to fall from. Nobody will care how they're doing. Everybody would be talking about their collosal idiocy of paying out all that money and review the stupid history of how Jimbo got the contract.

It's a no lose situation for us. Trayor? Who cares? It will be him or some other young hungry guy with potential. The hit rate on those hires is remarkably low.

I'll only worry if they get the Richmond head coach because he is clearly brilliant at player development!

If Petrino is an ambitious and immoral tactician, better equipped at this stage in his career to bully midgets than to slay giants, it is just possible he has a coup already schemed up. That would be a real shame.

I highly doubt this, in order for Petrino to pull off a coup he would need to be wooing some power players at A&M and thus we would be hearing some buzz around Petrino with shotS being  taken at Jimbo from the Aggie media. As @closetojumping pointed out the silence from the propaganda ministry is deafening and it looks more like it’s March 1945 for the Jimbo regime and the Aggie faithful.

At the moment.

Petrino has been around long enough to know the power players will come to him after the first Jimbo in-season fuck up and initiate the conversation. He literally doesn't have to lift a finger and he's next in line.

The best part about it is they can't do a damn thing about it and there isn't another Texas A&M out there to take him off their hands.

Total Buyout:

 

2023: $76,800,000

2024: $67,550,000

2025: $58,200,000

2026: $48,750,000

2027: $39,200,000

2028: $29,550,000

2029: $19,800,000

2030: $9,950,000


Payout structure below:

 

If Jimbo is fired this is payout structure(I'm only going next 2 years)

2023: $19,200,00

2024: $16,887,500

 

120 Days after the payment amount due within 60 days starts the recurring payments start.

Recurring Payment Amount:

2023: $7,200,00

2024: $7,237,500

So within the first 6 months he's due 25% of his buyout plus the recurring payment through 2031.

Total Due Within 6 months:

2023: $26,400,000

2024: $24,125,000

 

 

The buyout doesn't get tolerable until 2027ish Now throw in staff buyouts as well and it's not pretty. You'll be looking at anywhere from 35-45 million for the next 2-3 years

 

 

Also throw in the fact that through 2031 they would be paying him roughly 6-8 million dollars a year on top of the new coach salary and new staff salary it's hilarious.

 

Could you imagine firing after 2024 and having to pay your new coach 8-10 million, as they would overpay for that coach too while still paying Jimbo 7.2 million. That's 15-17 million a year in head coach salary lol.

And then any coach after that, seeing their behavior, will demand even more absurd and favorable terms. Because they’re a bad faith actor, and they’ll have displayed it for all the world to see.

The only counter-point to that would be Tennessee.

That's not a fair counter-point at all, imo. For a couple of reasons. First, Jeremy Pruitt did all kinds of bad shit, and it was exposed that he did it. Nothing that Jimbo Fisher has done has been publicly exposed...yet. aTm would have to make a decision to expose their coach (again, this isn't going to help attracting new coaches) and they would have to HOPE any further investigation didn't show that the school was culpable in any way. And do you think Fisher is going to sit back and not uncover the bodies? Keep in mind Texags is an arm of the athletic department...god forbid it was shown that some money laundering efforts went through Texags and some local T-shirt company. 

 

Second, while people are suddenly high on Huepel after a good season and good recruiting at Tenn, lets not forget that Tenn DID have trouble hiring coaches. They were turned down repeatedly by big names, and the Huepel hire wasn't exactly viewed as a slam dunk. He was like their 5th choice, and he was brought along by his old AD, if memory serves. Tenn has struggled to get coaches repeatedly the last decade. Could it maybe turn out as well as aTm, backing into someone competent like Traylor? Maybe. But if Traylor wins again at UTSA, and Texas wins with Sark this season, there's a good chance Traylor could find other pastures where he could succeed with less bullshit. I'm not sure Pittman is going to be viewed all that favorably at Arkansas if he loses this year, and again next year. 
 

It's a very messy situation for aTm, I don't think anyone can predict exactly how the outcome will go, other than they're probably not winning on the field.

The transfer portal is the worst thing to happen to schools like aTm. You can sell recruits over a weekend or two that the city isn't that bad. Then they get on campus and realize the College Station is an absolute shit hole with nothing to do (esp for black kids). Couple that with asshole coaches, terrible on field performance and no NIL prospects and you want out almost immediately. Before you were stuck, now players have options.

Flip that to schools like UT where there's a lot more to do. More NIL opportunities because of local businesses. Makes it easier to hang on to guys.
