Texas A&M, Auburn, and South Carolina have been in a bidding war with each other over the services of former Florida HC, Will Muschamp. The Aggies seemed to have thrown everything but the kitchen sink at Muschamp, but to no avail. My sources have told me that A&M put Muschamp on a deadline and that deadline has passed. Which means they will move on to their #2...which brings us to Bud Foster.

Foster has been in talks with Texas A&M's AD and HC, Kevin Sumlin for sometime now; and in fact, I have it on good authority that Foster was the one who reached out to Sumlin first, and not the other way around. I can't 100% confirm the accuracy of this statement, but I feel as good about it as any preemptive information I've ever obtained, and that is:

It would appear, based on my sources, that Texas A&M and Bud Foster have reached a deal in principle.

Feel free to take this as you will, but I'm not trying to pump smoke or troll the board. Just thought I'd give the heads up for discussion.

Dude knows D, but he's an old guy. And it's hard to see what he gains from making this move at this point in his career

Since this is just some random poster, I'll wait for something that's actually concrete. I'm pretty tired of message board rumors being taken as anything substantial.

If that actually happens, I know I'd have a lot of crow to eat.


That said, I still doubt it. But we'll see.

And he would be a great hire.

Beamer is on his way out. VaTech won't commit to Foster getting the HC position. He moves on, and waits for them to call him maybe.

55 is old? Snyder is almost 50.

Joe Kines was 64 when Sherman brought him on.

This would be a home run hire.

But don't forget how long this guy has been at VT and how many there think he is HCIW without the Muschamp style title. I would expect to see these kinds of reports float as more pressure on VT to **** or get off the pot on him as HC there. Especially if he actually reached out to Sumlin- I'd bet he's making a power move like ol' Jimbo did to Bowden.

Of course, if it is true, then bring him down and let him meet Daylon and his buddies ASAP.

So youre saying he would post something that wasnt true? Nobody would ever do that. He's just trying to pass along info. He knows something

I honestly thought Kines was 70 when he got here.
