    Jimbo is a good coach and he'll win 8-9 games every year, maybe 10 every now and then but they could probably find a much cheaper coach to do the same thing.

    They will shoot him up before the game if his ankle is an issue and he will play. He won't miss the Egg Bowl based upon the way things are now.

    He will never stop blowing Jimbo long enough to admit that.

    Exactly...at his salary, that's not what A&M is paying him to do...

    So he went 8-1 last year against an all
    Sec schedule, and that's a knock against him in your eyes?

    This season is clearly disappointing, but I do realize losing your starting qb is a huge blow. I do think he shoulda had a better backup. The fact he fact bama with calzada is all the evidence I need that jimbo can coach though

    Probably true, but his lack of designed runs in the offense has been greatly missed.

    I'm not sure his starting QB would've done better, in all honesty.

    Oh, hell yeah, he'll play. He's just not as explosive a runner right now, and they just aren't as good offensively if he isn't breaking off those 10-15 runs when the pass isn't there

    Jimbo is a good coach, but I?m not sure he is worth what aTm is paying him.

    Who would you pay instead of jimbo?

    Or put it another way - who should LSU/uf hire because that?s what ur looking at to be better than jimbo?

    Chip Kelly ??
    Dabo?
    Oregon coach?
    OU coach?
    Mich st coach?

    Those are ur options for better than jimbo.

    Hell look where auburn had to go to for a coach last year. There are very few sabans.

    Jimbo is not a great coach, he?s passable coaching wise, but he is an elite ?recruiter? and with that fact alone his teams will win 8-9 a year and maybe get one more every now and again. UNM had the same game plan we did, make a bad QB beat you and we both did. The question is how does that game last night go in College Station?

    Like Sarkasian, for example?** Consistent winning is hard. He is a good coach. It remains to be seen if he is a great coach.
