This is the most ridiculous contract ever. What was A&M thinking giving Jimbo this extension? He accomplished absolutely nothing prior to it happening aside from what? Beating LSU?


Kneejerk contract extensions in college football have been a thing for a long time.

Mike Shula got one for a great coaching job in '05 (despite another loss to Auburn), but was fired the next year.

Mel Tucker got one for a great coaching job in 2021 (despite an absolute beatdown by Ohio State), and his team is currently under .500.

The networks have content to fill. They're stuck. Joe Smith, wealthy oil baw is just doing it to stroke his ego. He doesn't like being played for a fool and can easily find another expensive hobby to waste money on.

21-18 career record, this will likely be his 3rd losing season in his 4 as a Head Coach, and has been given a $95 million contract

We were called bitter and liars for saying Jimbo had lost the locker room and allowed a toxic culture to set in at FSU.


I don’t think that I ever said that but I am damn glad that Jimbo didn’t end up at LSU.

what about the AD that hired him?


He wasn’t a bad hire at the time.

The AD that gave him tens of millions in an extension though...
