Why doesn't A&M hire Kiff Kingsbury?

-he's available
-would come relatively cheap
-the only time A&M has been relevant in the last couple decades is when he was OC.
-Texas guy and has relationships with high school programs.

A&M needs a dynamic offense and QB to be successful. They aren't ever going to out talent the blue Bloods, especially with OU and UT joining the SEC.

He looks like he caught aids from a Thai lady boy. That'll definitely affect the brain

They could do worse. If they kept their DC that could be a scary combination. The can recruit $$$ so no real worries on him having to convince a kid to come there.

I don't think Kingsbury wants to come back to college unless it's an uber-relaxed gig that allows him "fun time".


And at some point, people have to recognize he's not that great of a coach. I know he looks cool in his Ray Bans, but he's very mediocre as a coach and he was running Texas Tech into the ground before he left for AZ.

He didn’t exactly leave TT for Arizona.

Who says that’s not one of the first guys they contacted and he said no?


Again, it’s not as great of a gig as the world is making it out to be.

The scariest thing in AZ was how he refused to adapt. Sometimes guys who were on the cutting edge refuse to adapt and think their system is perpetually good. KK's system is definitely nowhere near advanced in today's CFB

I still think he could be a solid OC in CFB under an offensive-minded HC, but then what's the point?

Rational people knew this when he was at Tech.

He's in college now as the QB coach at USC, which has turned out well.

And he's so fraudulent as a QB coach that the most talented QB the NFL has ever seen fell 9 picks behind Mitch Trubisky because everyone questioned his mechanics and decision making, the stuff a coach is supposed to fix about his QB.
