They don't ask him about LSU on the radio. They kind of tee him up to talk about A&M

People will scrutinize any response he gives and find wiggle room. Even if he gave a Tomlinson style answer, someone would comment, "well he did say, 'never say never.'"

I think he's a loyal guy. I think he loves it at A&M. I believe he plans on finishing his contract at A&M. It's not something I worry about. But I understand others won't be satisfied until it's all over. That's just the way it is when you have a hot coach.

"Do you like this gig?"

"I like my job.."

"No, no, no… that wasn't the question. Do you like your job?"

"Wait, so maybe I'm confused. I'm sorry, what?"

What? How is that the same thing?

He is intentionally not answering a direct question, he's not using synonyms as an answer to the question.

Lsu is in that pathetic moment like tu where they thought they could pull up a truck filled with $20m to Saban's mansion and he would be so damn flabbergasted that a real program was calling him that he would leave BFE-bama and be so grateful to come to austin.

Jimbo didnt leave FSU for the money, or the friendship, he left because of FSU's handcuffs. He isnt parlaying his time/success in CS for Louisiana handcuffs.

Not me, if he had said I am not interested in the LSU job I don't think there would be all of this speculation.

That's really just the difference between you and me. You say he is intentionally not answering the question, but I don't share that opinion.

I think him saying I plan on coaching at A&M is equivalent to him saying I'm not interested in the LSU job. Him saying there is nothing there is equivalent to no interest. But I understand why some would like something that's more concrete. I personally think he meant what he said.

What part about him saying that he plans to be here until the end of his contract is unclear? That's a decade.

I just want to say for the record (as I have before) that I don't believe Jimbo is leaving. Ross Bjork can't afford to lose Jimbo to a divisional rival AND his predecessor, he will match or exceed any offer Jimbo gets from LSU.
Having said that, I will sleep much better at night once LSU officially hires someone else.

---

Fair enough and perhaps you've addressed this before but how do you dismiss the fact that Jimbo is on track to land the #1 recruiting class in the country(if not 1 it will be damn close)? Imagine a coach landing the top class in the country and then leaving it? Has Feldman addressed that in his conspiracy theory?

---

You know, that's a veeeerrrry good point!

---

Well, according to the mouth breathers on tiger droppings he's bringing all those recruits with him to LSU. Those water heads are actually getting excited about our recruiting class because they think it's going to be theirs. The lack of self-awareness alone is unparalleled.

---

The level of stupidity and delusion required to believe that Jimbo is secretly putting together a top recruiting class at A&M so he can take it with him to LSU is unfathomable. So of course LSU fans believe it. That fan base is a collection of the dumbest human beings on earth with access to the Internet.

I personally think Jimbo is playing 2D chess with A&M and A&M fans. He has his foot on the gas and has completely broken the brake pedal at this point. He knows that if he talks A&M up, and doesn't combat LSU rumors entirely, he will continue to bend the university (and its resources) to his whim for his every need. It is not completely a positive for A&M, but it is going to get us where we want to go.

Both sides of this argument are dumb. He can easily leave and he can easily stay. The rest is speculation.

Again we've done everything in our power to keep him happy here at A&M but only Jimbo and family can decide what's best for him.

Frankly, I believe that he would still be at FSU had they met him halfway on some of the changes he wanted. We lucked out. He doesn't have any of the issues at A&M that he had at FSU.

No you are just bringing up an old article that came out before FSU started telling him no to things he wants. That's when the mood changed on him staying at FSU for "a long time". All you are doing is spreading your LSU buddies delusions. As you've said "My LSU friends I've talked to"

You guys worry too much

if jimbo stays, he stays...

If he goes, he goes...

A&M will be here and will remain formidable. Jimbo is recruiting great, true but so will another charismatic coach if needed in the future...A&M will recruit itself.

So, don't worry about stuff you can control and just enjoy wreckage of lsu and texas alike...

What positives does LSU offer that he doesn't have at A&M?

I can only think of one thing, that being their in-state recruiting is relatively easier because there are no other P-5's in state.

Their past championships are mostly immaterial imo. Their winning History is markedly better in the past 20 yrs but he has established he can recruit at an extremely high level at A & M so does it really make a difference at this point?

To me the list of positives at A & M is
Much longer. I am also clearly biased

Ranch land vs Swamp land

Jimbo

He stayin

This link is misleading. This was from 2016. Jimbo did not leave then. There were issues that cropped up over the course of the next year that led to his exit from FSU. The situations are not comparable. Not trying to sway opinion one way or the other with regard to LSU, Jimbo's response when leaving for A&M was markedly different.

I actually didn't realize the year, my bad. The point still stands though, saying you plan to do something is much different than saying I will or won't do something. It leaves room for doubt.

I only brought up my friends who are in the know at their school because this is clearly a story that has legs and most people on here want to bury their hand in the sand and pretend it's not real and hope it just goes away. He likely stays, but this is something that is worth talking about no matter how uncomfortable it is.

We'll know after the LSU game....may even know during the LSU game if the team shows up unprepared or can tell if they know their coach is leaving. Never fails, the team losing a coach always loses a game or bowl game

I'm not sure if you were aware since this is a Dallas radio thing, but he was referring to this radio interview (22 second legendary clip)

The guy doing the interview later was fired for drug related issues...

Ok but for real, what reason does Jimbo have for not just simply saying, "NO. I will not take the LSU job." Like, the man is not an idiot, he knows what he's doing.

That being said, I don't believe that he is going to leave Texas A&M. We're paying him an unreal amount of money, program is on the rise, recruiting is better than it has ever been (#1 class in the country is within our grasp), and if these trends continue we will be the team challenging Bama for control of the SEC west from now on.

So does anyone have any idea why he won't just flat out squash these rumors? Like I said, I don't believe he would leave. But after the t.u./ou to SEC situation that unraveled in about 5 seconds over the summer, anything is possible.

Also, any chance these rumors are just a smokescreen coming out of Baton Rouge to distract everyone while they actually go after Dabo or Riley?

They sure are getting strong feelings on TD…. Hilarious

Edit: apparently I had one to many last night..

He said, even outside of football the "Aggie network" is great (he didn't use this word but the point holds that he painted the Aggie network as a positive).

You never know, of course, but it would seem he is very happy where he is at and I gathered what he really likes is the all in commitment to win.

---

He has used the Phrase 40 year decision, not a 4 year decision for recruiting since he got here.
And YES that 40 year decision is the "Aggie Network."
