That is awesome. Can you post the link?

POTD!

Pretty sure bama went like 14-0 in 2009.

*it's happening gif*

I grabbed it from SEC Rant.

The changes and progress are evident!

But my BAS says we lose to state and lsu

We are probably 2 years from having any shot at the title. (The schedule alone next year would do most teams in)

But the POS media finally realized what we were sitting on. It took hiring Jimbo for those chumps to see it.

I'm usually a realist type of person, I try not to get drunk on the koolaid, but I truly believe we are even closer than that. I think we are 1 season away from competing for a title or at least getting a playoff birth... even with our schedule. Change happens a lot faster nowadays, recruits are ready to play their first year; coaching, workouts, training has all improved. Jimbo has already changed the hardest thing to change - culture. As far as positions, we just need a cornerback and safety to step up next year (Erick Young, Brian Williams), continual improvement on the offensive line (which I think will happen) and Mond to continue to improve. I know those are big question marks, but like most, I trust this staff.

So.....does that mean wait till next year?

Honestly probably 2020 or 2021 if we are talking actual championships. If we are talking being a good team? We are already there

But what did you expect? Hire a new coach and win it all in year 1 or even 2?

To win it all or get a playoff birth against next years schedule, It takes more than a s and cb stepping up for next year. It takes staying healthy at multiple thin positions such as linebacker. It takes more explosion on offense. It takes The ol improving a great deal. It will take replacing 4 of our front 6(Durham Mack Keke and alaka) which is the main reason we are a good team now. It will likely take all of dodson, madubiuke, Williams, and Sternberger coming back. A lot will have to come together.

I think next years team will be good, but that's a lot of ifs going against what will likely be the toughest schedule in the country next year to be playoff good. Even a normal Bama team(not With tua) might lose 2 games against next years schedule

Yeah. It's definitely happening.

These recruiting classes are going to be ridiculous. It's doesn't hurt to have guys in the media doing this. Jimbo is the man.

Good to hear, but this is not new news. I've been high on th koolaid since Jimbo first spoke as an Aggie.

Whiskey!

Rebuilding in 2019. Champs in 2020!

Those are valid points but I like who we are replacing the seniors on the DL with - Soph. Brown and Wright. Juniors - Peevy, and Johnson. and Senior Madubuike and Moton. Need production from Clemons but we also have a DE recruit DeMarvin Leal who is the best in the state. I didn't list everyone but that is a fairly deep DL.

I also like our LBers next year: Okeke, Buddy Johnson, Hines and Dodson. Yes health is still a concern as we do not have depth.

Secondary will be improved with O'neal, Carper, and Chattman all coming back. I really think Williams and Young will be good enough to start next year.

Except there is still some national and state media outlets that are pushing the tu narrative and trying their hardest to make them relevant.
The difference is that A&M is setting a good foundation which to build a top 5 program with national title possibilities year in year out (within the next two years). Texas on the other hand is a program in disarray due to the conference they are currently in, it is the weakest P5 conference that really has very little upside, and while you may be the conference champ, you are still a bit of a football chump. It is almost identical to how the SWC in the later years was viewed as........weak!! Plus lets be honest, the current coaching staff at tu doesn't scare anybody and i highly doubt that they can build something lasting with him at the helm.

A&M has EVERYTHING today to build a national program but it took us years to get here............but here we are, no more excuses!!

Dude! This is about us. Why the hell would you want to bring the sips into the conversation? The difference between our two programs is night and day. What the Jimbo era does has nothing at all to do with them.

I was answering this comment, so chill out....dude

Vision 2020!!! Let's do this!

What I love about Jimbo is that it is obvious from his body language that he's extremely happy to be here. The importance of that cannot be underestimated!

The fans need to continue to support him and the program, including packing the stadium even for crappy games. There will be tough times I'm sure, but I think everyone is all-in with Jimbo. We need to step up too and return to being the greatest fans in CFB.

Also, I don't know about everybody else, but I am so glad we stepped up and gave him the contract we did. I've never been more satisfied with an investment by the University as I have been with that move. That along with the redesign of Kyle field set the tone for what sets us apart from every other place. We had the potential for unlimited greatness, and we have laid the foundation. Now Coach has to make it happen!

I disagree. The media has recognized that we have all the resources in the world since the Fran era when our facilities caught up. I specifically remember an old article that talked about us and UCLA as two schools that have everything going for them but somehow can't put it all together.

And they've frequently made bold predictions (like Herbie calling us a dark horse for the MNC in 2005). Hopefully now we finally have got the guy who can put it all together.
