It was unanimously panned by virtually all A&M parties involved, except for Bjork. And it all went down very fast.

Eppright Donors ($100K+) took a major stand and communicated a united front to cancel tickets, withhold all funding (NIL included). But even more damaging, players were going public.

I’ve never seen anything like it, to be honest.

Thank God.

Careful what you wish for. When we revolted against a hire we ended up with Jeremy Pruitt as our HC and Phillip Fulmer as AD.

It’ll likely be Elijah Rob, Elko, or Fisch.

All are risky hires, and might amount to a bust. But better than hiring an 11-year SEC East coach with mediocre results. No offense, Kentucky.

Very funny that A&m fans are buying any of this.

An AD needs so many levels of approval to make a hire, especially at a place like A&m where there are so many big money guys.

Very likely Stoops just leveraged Bjork into getting a raise and now Bjork is holding his dick in his hand.

These revolts never end well. Look at Auburn with the Stop Steele movement, ended up with Bryan frickin Harsin.

Eijah and Fisch are absolutely not better hires than Stoops. Elko you could make that argument

Stoops at A&M would have been like LSU hiring DiNardo. Probably would have gotten 2 or 3 good seasons and then it would have run dry.
