I'm not sure if I trust on3 but I SAF trust Andy Staples!
I’m super pleased. The Stoops was so not expected.
As a long time Hog fan I think A&M has made a great hire. It will be interesting to see how the nextt several years pan out. I watched the Duke Clemson game earlier this year and couldn't believe what I was seeing. I thought that this is the guy A&M SHOULD HAVE as head coach not Dumbo. This will not do me any good as I root for Arkansas but I would personally rather see an old SWC foe beating Bama and LSU and AU since Arkansas is not likley to be doing this with any regularity.
hi guys
Money means nothing. You can buy the best players and have zero results.
You can buy the best, with zero development, never buying in, leaving after a year, and staff falling a part.
It comes down to recruiting the best, further developing them, and instilling a culture of toughness.
that you jimbo?
@@Bravo4699 Might be LOL
Texas has like 6 major college teams, i would love some insight on how you recruit ovwr there.
For top recruits. There is more competition from schools like bama and Georgia than there is from schools like Baylor or tech. A&M, Texas, and OU tend to dominate the landscape for prestige while the other in state schools must focus on connecting with the high school coaches association to create relationships with talent rich high schools.
The same way Florida does. Miami, UF, FSU, UCF, USF, FAU, FIU all compete in a talent rich state.
Well, I heard that Bjork told Stoops to name his price.
Stoops came back and said, "I'm going to need about tree-fiddy."
And it was about that time that Bjork realized that Mark Stoops was 8 stories tall and a crustacean from the Predadoic Era.
There is no way that after Jimbo that A&M asked anyone to name their price. They aren't going down that road again.
@@Mark-rw3kw not a South Park fan huh lol
@@jamestacular😂😂😂
"It was the Loch Ness Monster!"
A solid top 30 program going forward. Top 30 in 2 out of 3 years in the Elko years. Top 30 in 2 out of 3 years after Elko. So why Elko? Don't know.....
Andy the daily routine Elijah Robinson
Guys did they retain the OC for A&M
No
@@HokageFlete thanks
Liucci just described star chasing and called it talent chasing. It’s the same thing my guy
Texas A&M has an amazing chance to go 12-0 next year. The roster looks great and the schedule is as easy as you get in the SEC, including getting all three of their toughest oppents at home.
Yup. Us aggies have been looking to 2024 from the minute we signed the #1 class. Our year!
@@stickswithme bahaha! You'd be lucky to be bowl eligible next year.
@@malikjones2193I think they are tripping as well but lucky to be bowl eligible? You sound like a hater lmao
@@bthoblank8285 I mean they missed a bowl last season ago and barely got bowl eligibility this season. I guess they can reach it if they schedule FCS cup cakes like Albaline Christian for 3 or 4 games.
9 or 10 wins, I'd say.
hi
I don't care what Billy Luicci thinks about this.
Hahaha resrarion what a joke, pretty fired up lol whole team is leaving great hire what a Meh average coach for a average football program
I always wonder what Texas A&M would’ve been like if Manzel never went there, he really made A&M for like their national contenders yet they’ve never been national contenders
You guys can spin this any way you want but the college football world will always know that Stoops turned A&M down.
Cool story brah
So we’re calling the guy who was completely wrong every step of the way and basically last to report the Elko hiring an insider now?
So not true.
Gimme a scrappy 3 star who wants to be an Aggie over a 5 star any day of the week
lmao says no National Championship winner EVER
@RhinoAg Johnny Manziel was a 3 star dummy
@@snaeshaads8203 lmao and? Take all UGAs 5 stars and replace them with 3 stars. They're not winning back to back nattys and you know it.
"That wasn't ever gonna happen. It's a hard hire to make. I don't think A and M intended to swim in those waters, and um, there were some rumors about Ryan Day late, Dan Lanning early, never real things" LMFAO!!!!!!
You mean those coaches turned you down and now you want to pretend you never wanted them.
Jimbo was SO close.........and then they fire him!! The transfer portal is going to be led by Evan Stewart. What a Cluster****!!
Jimbo was always “so close.” can’t be “so close” every year.
Lol in what world was Jimbo close
Stoops > Elko
Billy is a clown homer LOL But he has a pretty tough job. He has to deal with other gaggies daily
A&M will win The Sec Championship and Natty in 6 years Ou and Texas won't win anything theThe league is tough and now playing in a real league then the Big 12 Our Facilities are better than TU and Ou We got the biggest stadium in Texas OU and Texas don't hold 110;000 The indoor facilities are the biggest in College Football.
A&M may win, but not because they have a larger stadium. There is lots of oil money at UT and OU to pay NIL money to players.
As a fellow Aggie, chill.
@@Mark-rw3kw The largest NiL money is at A&M not UT or Ou Thats not delusional Like you said about us So Money and our stadium is larger than them . Kentucky got there Ass kick by Georgia and Missouri 38-31 isnt a blowout absolutely Make a trip to College Station and see what we have sir Mark my words in less than 3 years we will win a SEC Championship and a Natty Ou and Texas have a few years to be like Alabama absolutely.
@@kriscobb3762 I am not saying M&A is delusional about wining or anything else like that. They are delusional about the fact that Stoops was in fact offered the job before Elko and he turned it down. I don't see why it is necessary to lie about this. The size of a stadium is irrelevant. If it was, then Michigan would have won many championships before the other teams build bigger stadiums.
@@philliplenz2089for real like bro let’s just put our head down instead and work
Aggies came out looking stupid on this. The AD comes off as an ass. How much did A and M have to fork over to Stoops for going back on the offer? Or did it get that far? I am sure it really put Stoops in an awkward position with Kentucky. Lucky they didn’t tell him you want to leave…..go ahead! What a circus AGGIE LAND has going on.
A&M did NOT retract an offer to Stoops. That is just fiction because fans are embarrassed that Stoops turned down the job. It was widely reported by credible media (who gets multiple verification from those actually involved) that Stoops spent they afternoon and evening talking to his assistants (and the families) and not enough assistants wanted to move to college station, and Stoops knows that at at UK his assistants have been the key to his success, especially on offense. If A&M retracted an offer, then no coach would ever talk to them again about an opening in the future. The list of coaches to be offered in order of preference was approved in advance above the level of AD (President and Chancellor of A&M, and maybe the Board), and they don't have time to approve each new person they talk to. Notice that the Elko deal was done very soon after Stoops declined, because Elko was next on the pre-approved list. Not a lot of people have mentioned this, but the Stoops family is not well-liked in Texas due to his brother Bob being head coach at OU previously.
@@Mark-rw3kw thanks. Hard to believe that being a brother to Bob Stoops is held against him. I could understand Texas or some school that had a recent history of playing against A And M. College football has become all about the money.
@@kevinr5187 I am not really sure how much aggies hate the Stoops family, since as you mentioned, OU left the Big 12 awhile ago. But OU typically got a lot of recruits from Texas high schools, so they competed in the recruiting wars. In 2020 of the 118-member active roster for OU, 49 were from Texas and 26 players were from Oklahoma. Also, even though A&M has not played Texas since leaving the Big 12, they obviously have not lost their hatred of the Longhorns. But as I stated, once Stoops turned down the job, he was sentenced to purgatory by the Aggies for that sin alone.
Daddy’s comeing back to put a&m back at the kids table where they belong. 🤘🤘🤘
You fired Jimbo and now you hired his former assistant. C'mon Ross! Results will be the same or worst, but not better. Gig 'em!
Aggies are delusional. UK beat 10th ranked Louisville last week, and Duke has fallen off the last half of the season in the ACC. That is why Stoops was ranked before Elko. The aggies just won't admit that Stoops turned down the job. Stoops did say no, because he could not get enough assistants to go with him. The fact that aggies are so delusional is one of the reasons why so many coaches (Oregon, Washington, UK, and others) turned down the job. Not only are aggies delusional, they have no integrity and make up stuff that isn't true.
We don't give a single fuck.
The Most Delusional fan base is Ou and Texas they aren't playing for the national title this year and they won't win next year A brutal schedule for Ou and Texas.Kentucky didn't beat the big boys in the SEC they got boat raced Elko will win a Title in 3 years Mark my words.
Yeah this youtube igit knows what's going on behind the scene ... mark you know nothing man. You're delusional if you don't think a&m isn't an elite job position. You're just a plain hater if you think otherwise.
@@kriscobb3762 UK (Stoops) beat 10th ranked Louisville last week. Duke has fallen off the last half of the season, which is why Stoops was offered the job before Elko. Actually, if Louisville beats Florida State and Texas beats Oklahoma State, I think Texas will jump Ohio State and Texas is probably in the 4 team playoff, so they are not completely out of it. A&M is 7-5 right now, and 3 of those wins are against pansy teams (New Mexico, Louisiana Monroe, and Abilene Christian).
I think both may have happened. Stoops got cold feet and A&M ran into the approval roadblocks separate from each other.
Just when you think Gaggie couldn't possibly embarrass itself more,...they do🤡
Just like yall losing to Kansas 🤡
Since 1995 A&M and Kansas have the exact same amount of double digit win seasons with two each! Facts matter!@@mr.absolutelynobody440
@@mr.absolutelynobody440 Losing a football game is not embarrassing. Losing integrity and honesty is not only embarrassing, it is pathetic.
@@Mark-rw3kwand they still got the money, they still gonna get the 5 stars, all while u sitting here talking s**t lol 😂💀
This is SEC football. Fuck integrity, who cares.@@Mark-rw3kw
There is no restoration of TAMU, first went to Stoops then decided on Elmo, yes Elmo. Midterm tally, fired Fisher a 72% winning coach with 8 and 2 bowl record. Replaced by ELMO who is a 60% winning record in the weak ACC with a 5 million buyout. So this idiot Lucci and TAMU lose 81 million replacing SEC 72% national championship winning for a 60% ACC winning. Lucci is joke and ELMO is a joke. Welcome to 8 and 4 or 7 and 5.
The way it worked is the the AD, working with the President and Chancellor, came up with a list of names in order of preference, and was given the OK to go after them. Due to UK beating 10th ranked Louisville last week, Stoops was slightly ahead of Elko, but the list was already set in order and approved before they started talking to people.
@Mark-rw3kw depends on the story you believe and there are 3. Stoops offered, fans alumni rebuke, offer reminded, elmo offered. 2, Stoops agrees,, media notified, boosters reject, media notified, elmo offered. 3. Media led the entire narrative only elmo offered. Watch a movie, named Wag the Dog. No one will ever know the truth.
@@paulbegansky5650 Anyone who knows anything about hiring a coach knows that the list was created in order ahead of time and approved by those who needed to approve it, and the AD was given permission to go after them in order. I don't know why it is necessary to make up stories about offers being revoked, etc. If an offer was made and revoked, that could invite a lawsuit, and be extremely embarrassing and unethical, and I don't even think aggies would do that.
Calm down bro, it's gonna be okay
@jamestacular I am calm. Watching TAMU make excuse after.excuse for firing than hiring a lesser win % coach. No one like reality.
