It would be funny if TAMU still wins 9 games next few years, LSU still beats them, and most of their class ends up transferring to the portal due to too many alpha dogs on the team.


Not only is this possible but it’s almost certain, it’s A&M for fricks sake.

It’s funny because all the guys who are complaining about this use the portal and all these things more than anybody else. All the coaches in our league that are griping, and across the country, it’s amazing what goes on. It is a factor


This is dumb. LSU is benefitting from the portal and I still bitch about it.

Of course coaches who can utilize it will use it because you have to, it doesn’t mean they can’t also think it’s ridiculous and ruining college football.

Jimbo full of shite as always! A&M has showed their confidence level in your coaching ability but shoveling out wads of cash to try and buy a championship.!

didn't this same clown (jimbo) also say in a news conference earlier this year or late last that NIL was pay for play...not word for word, but pretty close?

Yeah I doubt $30mm is true but 5-10 could be.

They're not marketing it because what they're doing is illegal (both NCAA and the state). It's not legal NIL. You can't offer "inducements" to high school recruits, and they can't sign NIL deals until they're enrolled. These guys are getting individually negotiated deals in the form of old school bags to family/handlers. Not blanket NIL deals like the collectives at other schools. Hence, no marketing for ATM while other programs publicize their legal NIL stuff.

He's being disingenuous on purpose. He's going into year 5 there. He's been average AT BEST in all aspects of program leading and on field production. His classes have been in the 6-10 range every recruiting cycle. Then all of a sudden, in the year NIL becomes a thing, they go nuts on the recruiting trail?

OK Jimbo.......

I'm not sure why so many are upset about aTm.

This is only building up to become the greatest Aggie Joke of all-time when they still finish in the neighborhood of 8-4.

Heard his recruiting news conference on PF show driving home. He lost his mind when asked about NIL and paying players. All but called out Saban and Kiffin. It was hilarious. Better be better prepared for these questions coach....they are not going to stop.

Outright liar. Imagine that!
Matthews was LSU until the Aggie suitcases were brought in that increased their initial NIL offer.
Now tell me Jimblo. How has NIL not affected it?

Ol baw trying to take all the credit for #1 class that he will probably turn into a 9-3 team instead of being a stand up guy and admitting that Aggie NIL cash drawer is among the
deepest in the nation.

Fisher is a clown. We are blessed that he didn't become our head coach, and if Scott Woodward thought otherwise it's a strike against our AD.

With a great paycheck comes great responsibility. Fisher is scared to death that he'll never win the SEC or get to the playoffs. So are the Aggies, which is why they're eager to hand over their oil money to a bunch of 17 and 18-year-olds.

All comparisons to our former head coach's voice aside, I can't believe recruits listen to that high-pitched motormouth rambling of his and think this is the guy who will do what A&M hasn't done since 1939.

STFU Jimbo. You know exactly what’s going on and fortunately you have a bunch of rich cult faggies paying out. That’s the truth. Embrace it. Don’t call it insulting when everyone calls you out clearly how you did so well recruiting. I promise you ATM and it’s questionable culture, and it’s shitting college town experience is not what locked in the #1 class. But you just snagged a lot of guys in this all about me culture. Jimbo, you’re not saban. This will blow up in your face sooner than later
