A&M first phone call should be to Matt Rhule

I wish that would happen but it probably won't . I'd also like to see Willie Fritz get interviewed. Fritz has a solid resume. He's also coached at Blinn JC and SHSU, which are both very close to A&M.

From 1993 to 1996, Fritz was head coach at Blinn College.[3] He turned around a program that had gone 5–24–1 in its three previous seasons, producing a 39–5–1 record.[4] Willie Fritz led the team to two national junior college championships, in 1995 and 1996.[4] For his efforts at Blinn, Fritz has been inducted into the NJCAA Hall of Fame

Fritz became the 14th head football coach at Sam Houston State University on December 18, 2010.[5] During the 2011 season, his second year at Sam Houston State, Fritz coached the Bearkats to the FCS's only undefeated regular season and into the FCS playoffs. He coached the Bearkats to back-to-back national title game appearances in 2011 and 2012 in only three years of being head coach at Sam Houston State.

I don't think that is exactly how coaches get bought out of their contract when they go from one school to another. That is how they get bought out of their job when they are fired. It is my understanding that the 2 schools would negotiate a price for him to be bought out. I could be wrong but there is no way it would be $70 million.

It depends and I haven’t actually looked at Rhule’s contract, so I shouldn’t say it as fact.

Point is, this tab is going to run up really fast for Texas am

Rhule has won 16 games total the past 4 seasons

Jesus, they’re not going to pay the $70 million remaining on Rhule’s contract, plus a salary for him, plus staff, plus what you’re paying Fisher.

Rhule's buyout is only $7mil if he leaves for another school.
drops to $6mil after Dec. 31
