Chad Morris is the no-brainer pick. We need a schemer; a "CEO Coach" can't win at A&M.

I'm sorry, but unless that was a joke thats the worst plan I think I have seen ever for coach succession. Really hoping that was a joke.

Let's see how DJ Durkin does this year.
Totally agree with this! Either of these would be better than the crap fest we witnessed tonight. And send Mazzone packing with KDS...He doesn't know his behind from a hole in the ground.Boiling Denim said:
See if any of Chip Kelly, Les Miles or Bob Stoops wants to interim coach this year for a future contract
Evaluate at end of season and compare with names already mentioned in this thread
Then we will be back in the same spot in 5 years.TxAg76 said:
It's Morris.
Quit fighting it.
Some of the above are in the early stages of contracts, meaning big buy-outs that effectively remove them from the market. Taggart won't leave Oregon after one year. Ditto, Fleck and Pruitt.DSAg44 said:
Morris, aranda, Pruitt, Durkin, fleck, Wilson, maybe taggert?
These are realistic.
And when Jimbo loses his first game on campus? Unless we realistically assume he's gonna 15-0 in year oneCajunAggie said:
Hunter,
I'd be willing to try try the Kelly experiment for this season.
If not, make Jimbo Fisher say NO to $10M per year.
Then Gundy? NO on Chad Morriss and NO on Larry Fedora.

Anyone that thinks we will hire an unknown commodity, unless that coach has a historically good year this season, is not reading the tea leafs. The BOR will demand a top name and will pay for it. I wouldn't be suprised if we landed a name that no one sees coming that is already under a contract we have to buy out. We have alot to offer, top class coming in, top facilities, $$$$, and a lot of young offensive talent. Chip could walk in with our talent (Mond is right out of his mold) and average 45 per game. Go get him now! He's a genius on offense and take Charisma's salary to go get a guy with proven results.
If they had told him he wasn't welcome on the plane ride back and that he should take Uber back to College Station, I'd fully support the team and the administration.chipotle said:

Alabama wins with that formula because they're able to hoard ridiculous amounts of talent that we could never dream to match. It's why everybody who hires a Saban assistant trying to replicate his formula falls on their face.biki1121 said:
The new coach should be a defense guru who is all about the details. A&M will never win the SEC with a gimmick offense. A stout defense, effective big SEC running backs, and a QB that can manage a game. A&M had that for years with Jackie and RC. Saban wins championships with that formula. It works. Y'all have a nice day.
Time for the BMAs to evaluate Morris?lhAggie16 said:
AD said Sumlin had to win this year. 6 or 7 wins isn't winning. Why beat around the bush to have the same turnout?
