I've been thinking about the brilliance of this hire. I think Durkin is going to lead the Ags to a Top 20 D next year, but the stain on his HC record will make other programs hesitant from poaching him right away. Think of Greg Schiano--who's allegations from his PSU job were much more direct.--but kept him from taking the UT job. After 3 years, he was hired back to Rutgers where he had a player paralyzed but was said to have been very close and supportive of the family.

Like Dickey, Jimbo may have lined himself up with a quality coordinator for several years.

Unlike Dickey, this one will have some actual input into the in-game action

//Has the potential to be a great hire, but the proof is in the details. He needs to beat bama in Tuscaloosa and lsu in Baton Rouge, Elko/Jimbo have done neither, both SEC foes have hung double digit losses on the Ags @ away venues. DJ has beat tu in Austin as Maryland's coach to his credit, so he does have potential to continue the narrative to put the Ags in the championship mode.//just my thoughts.//Herknav sends

Lets see what happens when we open up with Sam in Sept of this year...
