Nah, they are pretty much the same sport other than the shape of the ball. No difference, really.

Well, they're different but similar.

Seeing how with both Buzz and Jimbo they've both had people calling for them to be fired after rough stretches and praising them as the best coach out there after big wins....So I think the biggest light bulb epiphany is win all the games.

Two words:

Book reading

Seriously:
1. Like Buzz, he could learn how to better utilize his assistant coaches for both game prep and game day adjustments and trust their input.
2. Emphasize tough and tenacious defense
3. Simplify offense and put the ball in the hands of those he can count on to come up with good plays
4. Make our guys "out-physical" our opponents

That being in the top 25 is not important for popularity.

Spend more time checking into a players parents, family values, upbringing, teachers, character,
citizenship and being a teammate.

Jimbo needs to grab one of 6'6" basketball players and make a wide receiver or TE out of him.

Talk slower, Buzz is quite the speaker, enjoyable to listen to.

I mean... Our basketball team is pretty aggressive on defense and sometimes looks like they're playing football out there. Some real lunchbox type guys. Hard workers for sure

i think both are great coaches personally so they probably could learn something from each other. i will say that buzz is a pretty unique dude as a person. his desire to grow as a person is unique for anybody regardless of profession. i think we all, including jimbo could learn something from that perspective.

Jimbo made one major mistake. Failed to manage resources properly. Counted too much on 5 star freshmen performing. Should have done a better job maintaining some experience on his roster. Injuries and discipline problems will always occur so maintain a playable roster of experience even if they were not 5 stars.

If he doesn't make the tourney this year he's gone. Most CFB media still has A&M firmly out so Buzz is by no means safe.

Buzz is not out after this year! He was given a one year extension. So he has two more years after this year on his contract. Plus his buyout is 8 milsky after this year. Betting we make the NCAA this year!

Also as of today, Ags are in the last 4 out not firmly out! We have 11 SEC games to play in the regular season.

Basketball is much more physical, hands on, pushing, holding, running over a statue, slapping, grabbing….

Football is a much more finesse game with calmer athletes…

To ignore the texags morons calling for his job the minute things get rough. It was about a month ago everyone wanted Buzz gone and now hes the poster board for coaching motivation. Wait for the next 3 game slide and the haters will be back. .

Buzz gets after it during the games. Did you guys see him the other night on the sidelines when the Aggies were on defense? He seems like the ultimate motivator, and I have yet to ever see this team get or play tired. We are an absolute nightmare to prepare against cause these kids take pride in playing defense, and that comes from great coaching. I'm a Huge Buzz Williams fan!

Basketball and football are so different that I am not sure much is transferable. All great coaches seem to preach a process, doing the little things well and controlling the aspects of the game that can be controlled. Both seem to possess that.

Buzz is and has been a master at coaching defense and implementing a tailored game plan to mitigate the opponents strengths. He does a fantastic job of that. He did a great job of that in the ACC… I was stunned he won at the clip he did in what is probably the strongest basketball conference. While he is animated, it is worth noting that there have many calm, pretty "chill" basketball coaches who have won a lot of games.

While we are comparing sports, here is my hunch… A&M's next long awaited National Championship in the big sports will not be in football or basketball. Instead, the National Championship "banner" - if we all live that long - will be painted in left field on the Olsen Field fence.
