word starting to make rounds that TAMU has their guy. Haven't heard name yet, but it sounds like the search is over.

Allegedly......Petersen.

You heard it here first.

And yes, I'm serious.

A&M insiders believe the Aggies have their new football coach and it's not who you would expect. Tracking down confirmation.

Petersen.


If this is it then my hat is off to A&M. This would have been kept incredibly quiet. I've heard that he was pitched the job (not interviewed), but that it was a long shot.

FWIW - I don't think it's Sumlin or Kirby.

Richt must have some bad blood in Georgia after the hot seat he was in. Then he goes and wins the East and says I'm out to TAMU. Don't think it's a better job than Georgia though. Georgia's a better area, better recruiting, and better base talent right now. Don't know why he would want to start over at A&M unless there is some really bad blood.

The name I just received from a connected Aggie? Mark Richt. I was told A&M has offered the job. We'll see...

One day in coaching searches equals seven dog years.

Owns Orangebloods. He's fairly connected to say the least.

When it comes to longhorn info. When it comes to A&M info - I wouldn't be surprised if someone is trolling him.

could be. Like I said, word is out that they've identified their guy. I don't think it is Smart (fairly confident in that) or Sumlin.

I actually think it is Petersen or Richt. Petersen is bigger splash, but Richt would have more ripple effects on CFB, though.
