Unless the money is coming out of your pocket…

How much our University wants to spend on a coach has almost ZERO to do with the cost of anything we have to pay..

The next time you b*tch about how much we pay Jimbo, consider the alternative…

Be thankful we have BMAs who are willing to fund all of this…. It's good to be wealthy…

I don't care how much they make, I care about how much they win

I mean, by this logic we might as well just shut the board down since what nearly any of us thinks about anything doesn't change anything. Good or bad.

What is the alternative to 5-7? I will complain as much as I want as I pay my kids tuition!

I'd rather most of that money go toward lowering tuition costs for students.
Thanks and gig'em

You would rather not have intercollegiate athletics? Somehow I'm not surprised…

That money doesn't go to the coaching salaries.

Your ability to look at a sentence and read another meaning into it is incredible.

Your ability to deflect rather than understand suggests you're the typical journalist…

Do we actually have BMAs willing to fund the buyout? Early signs say no.

Without an alternative what's the point?

I would say Jimbo has 2 years to produce with this roster or he will be ousted .
By produce , I mean he either needs to win the SEC West this year or make the SEC Championship Game the following year under the new format whatever it turns out to be . (Probably 4 groups with no divisions)
My money is on him being ousted .
I see a lot of bad body language and commentary from him this year .
He has very little reason to excel with his current contract .
one safe place

Doesn't matter who pays for it but it does look bad to grossly overpay. We get less out of more.

Quit *****ing about us *****ing about how much the coaches get paid unless the money for this site is coming out of your pocket.

How much we ***** about the coaches' salaries has ZERO to do with anything at all.

The next time you ***** about us *****ing about Jimbo's salary, consider the alternative...

Be thankful we have BMAs who are willing to fund all of this…. It's good to be wealthy…

THE REDICULOUS PRICE OF TICKETS DOES COME OUT OF MY POCKET AND IS USED FOR THE ATHLETIC BUDGET WHICH INCLUDES THE COACHES SALARY.

these statements are simply not true

everything the athletic department spends money on rolls down to the football season ticket holders

I suppose the old saying you get what you pay for doesn't apply to A&M.

It's not the annual amount that's the problem. It's the length and guaranteed nature of the contract.

Almost $2mil/win last year. It's a heckuva deal if you're Jimbo. Complaining, no. Envious, maybe.

First honest take. There is a difference between accepting mediocrity and focusing on control issues. Money and termination are about control not solving mediocrity.

They go to the staff salary, but unless you are in the group of BMAs that got together to pay for Jimbo, then no, your money doesn't pay his salary.

More importantly: there are plenty of cheap ass athletic departments in the world. Why try to make A&M one?

Then quit *****ing or being positive on Aggie football altogether unless you are actually playing on the team.

What anyone says or thinks has nothing to do with the outcomes of games.

In reality, this is just a game played by college kids. It really isn't important at all, so why bother paying attention to it at all?

That's a strangely myopic take. Partisans support the party and fans support the team. Looking for negatives to constantly harp on is not supportive. Supportive fans are usually patient for the team to win though not excusing poor play nor overlooking key information.

Internet tough guys on the other hand…

He's really only garbage as a O playcaller. He's got skins on the wall in general.
