Personally, I hope they keep Jimbo forever. He just needs more time to get his players and system in place. Rome wasn't built in a day.

As much money as A&M has, I still don't think they can afford to fire Jimbo, hire and new guy, and pay what it would take to keep all those players there plus add to it with more.

At some point, even if the money is there, the willingness to spend won't be.

You'll see it first signs of unwillingness in the NIL stuff, IMO. And it will be for two reasons, to cut the legs out from under Jimbo and reposition for the buyout at the same time.

Hopefully this is where we are. He can always blame this season on Weigmans injury.

People don't realize that it's not just Jimbo that has to be bought out. The assistants and staff all have contracts. Durkin makes 1.5 million per year and has 1 year left on his contract (Petrino is making 2 million on a 3 year deal). That is another 20-25 million. It cost a ton to bring in a new staff as well. By the time its all said and done they are looking at 110-120 milion to shitcan Jimbo.

Anyone else keep coming back to the RB hoping to see an “[x player] de-commits from A&M” thread? ??

Bussey tweeting the eyes emoji. Reliford just posted his visit pics. I’m drinking whiskey and watching the cowboys game if anyone wants to post. If not I’ll do it tomorrow morning.

I saw both of these as well. Reliford posting with LSU uniform has to be good. Bussey eyes has to mean something.

Seems like something is going to happen. Bussey isn’t really active on social media so I’m assuming Dre’lon Miller or Reliford related.

Just looked at Bussey’s twitter….

He has nothing saying that he’s committed to A&M & his pinned tweet is a picture of his top 5 schools which includes LSU.


Probably doesn’t mean much but if you’d think if he’s excited to be an Aggie he would at least have it somewhere on his Bio or pinned tweet.

Also Reliford reposted Ahmad Breaux’s LSU pictures. That North LA DL connection may workout

That’s what I’m saying he’s never been a social media type just not his style. That’s why I wasn’t surprised he picked A&M it’s more his speed of what’s he’s used to in Timpson.

If Miller does something, I think there would be ripple effects with some others.


This is great news. All we need is one or two of their recruits to flip.

Any news on Jaylen Brown DE from Alabama? I don't know if he actually made it for visit I hadn't heard anything about him. Maybe because he was a long shot.
