Hiring a guy who accepted a new job in December is a bad look


Absolutely classic Bobby Petrino. Bolts for a new gig after 2 weeks on the job.
I doubt there is anyone who will hire him away from us after 2 weeks on the job.

Terrible hire. More fuel to the craptastic dumpster fire this season was and Jimbo's tenure has been.

I believe in forgiveness, but why us. Can't we hire someone that isn't as punchable. Look at his face, and his track record. If we win the natty, I still say F&$$$ that guy. Being an Aggie means something to me. Petrino is the antithesis of Aggie core values.
Maybe I'm an old now.
A lot of Aggies have cheated on their spouses.


I know this first hand.

So how much are we paying him to be the scapegoat of the 2023 season?

If we fired every coach, every ceo, every president that had an affair with a woman
I was told Aggies don't lie, cheat, or steal.


Well, Slocum had an affair, broke up his marriage.
RC then married and is still married to that "other' woman. Not really the same thing since Petrino clearly was only in it for the sex.
So, adultery is okay if you end up marrying the side piece. Noted.
Those of us at A&M in the 90s know there was more than that.


I was at A&M in the 90's, and the only "more to it" was that people tried to justify it then too, instead of admitting what RC was.
TexAgs does not allow it to be discussed but we are not on the same page here.

No, we would have much better leadership.


That is an ignorant statement. First I don't condone cheating but you have to be naive to believe that. Look at history, almost all the great leaders had multiple wives or concubines and slept with many women. It is just biology. Sexual morality doesn't dictate how good of a coach or football player you will be. Doesn't dictate how good of a lawyer, doctor, or ceo you will be. Most high level men get lots of female attention

You guys are a bunch of malcontents. We should be exstatic that Petrino is coming here. Jimbo got his man. He is a proven innovater who changed the game with his wide open play. Want proof? Lamar Jackson, Brian Brohm, Ryan Mallett, Jaire Alexander, Forrest Lamp and Tyler Higbee would all like a word with you. This is the kind of coach we need. He will be a plus recruiter just look at his resume. 'Nuf said.

First Durkin and now Petrino…why cant we hire a non-disgraced coach
If you wanted a non-disgraced coach, you should never have hired Jimbo in the first place (Jameis Winston, The Criminoles, etc.)

That said, it will be interesting to see where this goes from here.

8/10 troll.

Throwing fuel to the fire while throwing some examples. Gotta admit, that's pretty good.

Bobby Petrino completely lost his team at Missouri State in FCS this year so it's really not surprising he originally jumped to UNLV outside of added pay. Missouri State was a spectacular failure this year

I love it how Patrino gets credit for Lamar Jackson. Lamar is a rare talent like JFF where your only job is to not screw it up. Let's hire a guy who can win it all with Calzada that is an impressive resume builder.

The only non disgraced coaches out there are the ones who never let their personal life and information out there.

If BYY can give Jim McMahon a scholarship we can pay someone to call plays even if he vomited this God awful sin you guys speak of.

Give me a damn break man. It's 5 on Wednesday, go to service or something and y'all judge each other there.

How does going to an even older offensive oc help. It's a terrible move.

Our culture already sucks. Hiring Petrino doesn't exactly help make it better.
You have no effing clue as to what our "culture" is as you are not inside the locker room

Only works if he can hire an OL coach as part of the agreement… otherwise mobile QB needed ever play is an understatement

Man you guys are hard to please. Get a two sport coach for price of one. Football coach that has made great offenses in past and can also scout talent for the new Volleyball coach. Win win boys.

Why not just bring in Urban Meyer if you don't care about ethical perspective?
Urban Meyer would have absolutely zero interest in being the OC at A&M. And in the unrealistic scenario he actually did- we should hire him immediately.

But the post got 42 stars and counting. lol.

As a resident of Springfield, MO---

That's completely inaccurate. In his brief tenure at MSU- he won more than any coach has at Missouri State in a VERY long time.

They have been a conference doormat for decades... He brought the program to life.

Petrino can coach but I don't like his temperament. He's a profane hothead and I don't think it will be successful with the youth of today.

Could write up so many reasons why this is such a bad hire.

I'm just going with all solid coaches see Jimbo's dead man walking and Patrino just wanted to pump up his retirement.

He could be a very successful hire. Problem is he's a **** human being and every day he leaves you're not sure if he'll show up again. If he is a successful hire, hell jump ship here like he just did at UNLV.

If he's successful here then we benefit too and then find the next guy. That's part of the deal in college football.

There are like 5-10 OC jobs better or a HC job. Doesn't matter who the hire is, that is the same for everyone.

I said he lost his team this year which is accurate. Added a bunch of FBS transfers last offseason, was a Preseason top 3 team then proceeded to lose a home game against South Dakota State the 4th game of the year by 14pts. All of the players after the game were super arrogant saying SDSU isn't better and went on to lose 4 straight games before finishing the year 5-6. He 100% lost the team this year after the South Dakota St game

I wasn't judging, just telling those who were that that ship had already sailed when Jimbo was hired.

You're right though, the number of Tom Landry's in football these days is inversely proportional to the Barry Switzer's out there (then again, even in the "good old days", the latter probably always outnumbered the former).
