Wow
I'm not out to make Looch look bad and understand his position. I just wanted to see if he'd even address publicly and he did. I asked his opinion and he gave it. He's not on the hook by his response to me nor should he be. He'll formally address it at an appropriate time if this all goes down.
Rojo is on the hook for the affirmation & lord knows who is feeding him info. It's a fun rumor to kick around though.

Tomorrow's a new day = more speculation = 0 productivity

Looch tweeted me back and said he "does not see this happening. No."
#itsallaboutthezoo but I'm down for rumor and would love it to be true.
Confirmed, Spurrier it is.
There is no truth to the rumor that Steve Spurrier will be the next OC at Texas A&M [/Chip Liucci]

Stop trying to talk down to the people on this thread like you are so much smarter/more informed than everyone else, unless you want to post your IQ (so we can all have a laugh) or post the name of your (imaginary) source.
There was no chance that Spurrier would go to South Carolina until he did. Most you are probably don't even remember how historically terrible that program had been until Spurrier came along.
If he can make a program like that relevant, he can make us title contenders.
Just flag all of his posts as trolling and they will go away.
So you assume that only you and people who think like you can be correct as you're the only ones with BS meters.
Arrogance for sure. Are you certain you aren't a sip?
Lou Holtz had his career die at South Carolina. He went 33-37. His final three seasons were 5-7, 5-7, and 6-5. You think the recruits were flocking there?
Spurrier had been out of coaching for several years when Lou Holtz retired. I say again, NO ONE thought Spurrier was going to South Carolina until he did.
Yes, I think the Head Coach position at South Carolina at the time is comparable in prestige to our OC position.

This is starting to feel like a leak test.
Okay, if Looch is saying it's not Spurrier, then who is being whispered about??
The one completely unacceptable option here is keeping Spavital as OC.
There must be some smoke that a change is somewhere along in the process, right??

Rojo,
What were the two major hurdles?

Would be pretty good. I read on TOS that the AD was trying to determine the identity of two posters that had previously posted insider information about the team to the boards.

He's not going to speculate until there's an actual opening to fill which there most likely won't be until the new hire is already a done deal.
Our AD is not that sharp

Surely the AD has better things to do with their time. If not, they're inept at keeping their own people in line.

Perfect post.
Can someone add in Spurrier's face into that Gif? Maybe where Alan's face is...

A lot of people are already going to drop their season tickets. That number might increase dramatically if we keep our current offensive coordinator.
I wonder if Robert Joh has any idea he's semi-famous?

I would hope so too but TOS staff confirmed it and reassured the posters that they wouldn't reveal any posters identity to the AD.

Welcome to Aggieland, Steve Spurrier. Texas A&M's new OC.

Is this a signed deal, in the books?
He already addressed this and said he wouldn't speak for Sumlin.

If announcing the new OC isn't speaking for Sumlin, I don't know what is.

Hard to believe that the conversations haven't already occurred regarding whether they are retained or not. Especially with the recruiting trail right now.
quote:Coordinator vacancies usually filled after bowls, head coaches usually before bowls. Few coordinators are going to commit to a coordinator job while head coaching options are still out there, and even if you arent a candidate a better job might open from coaches taking head jobs rather than taking the first offer on december 1.quote:This is just an odd coaching carousel.

Your issue is with Rojo and what was said. Not me friend.
TIL
The most likely origin of the term goes back to the wooden decked ships of the British Royal Navy during the late 17th or early 18th century. Barefooted seamen had to stand at attention for inspection and had to line up on deck along the seams of the wooden planks, hence to "toe the line". The first mention of this use in literature stems from a story about navy life widely published in 1831 and written by Captain Basil Hall RN. Hall served in the Royal Navy from 1802.
On some military parade-grounds there are white lines marked, along which soldiers form up, with their toes just touching the line.

This should be great. I would love you to tell ms hawg how CFB works!

Correct. I realize you were just quoting him.
While I tend to believe Rojo, it's seems like a cop out to announce the OC, but then turn around and say he's unwilling to speak for Sumlin. Given what he said about his Chavis announcement being a bit early last time and causing issues, I'm assuming the ink is all but dry and we won't hear much more from Rojo until it's announced officially.

Rojo does NOT know who the next OC is. Especially if he's saying it will be Spurrier. At least I hope that isn't true.
