the dumbarses at Tammy figured out what a mistake they made. It will take 4 or more years to straighten out their program now.

I'm guessing they think with the right coach and the unlimited ability to buy players, they can have a top team in a year or two.
Call it the FSU model...

There seems to be a Grand Canyon like difference, between the people that run TAMU and the people that go to TAMU.

They are all AGGIES! If you have ever lived in Texas or been around the area much, you know that is all that needs to be said. They are Aggies!

That's what they thought when they hired Jimbo.

And, yes, that is what they are thinking now.
The problem is accurately determining the right coach.
All coaching hires are educated guesses at best. Alabama, after Bear Bryant died, had one "right hire" between him and Nick Saban (Gene Stallings). How many hired did Clemson have between Ford and Dabo? (And, how many people thought Dabo was the "right hire" when Terry Don gave him the job?
If aTm makes "the right hire" it will work out for them. But, if they don't....

It won't take long with the portal.
Look at what Colorado was able to do ... wait.
Never mind.

they increased their win total 400% in just one season.
If the next coach is 1/8th as successful using the portal as Prime then they will build a statue in front of the stadium.

He got a guaranteed $75 million buyout. Not going to get sympathy from anyone. It's his coaching staff we should feel sorry for.

Doubt he will coach again unless his buyout is contested.

Jimbo is headed for a place where he doesn't have to shave, can walk around mumbling like a street bum, has no idea what he is doing as he loudly curses his players and staff for the slightest indiscretions, picks a fight with the greatest college coach of all time in various public sparring matches, and produces results that would insinuate that insanity has taken hold of his faculties. i.e. he'll just keep doing what he has always done.

I would say unless they have a HUGE splash hire, there will be mass defections
