[cbhunter]

Bobby Petrino apparently is going to the Aggie's. Love him/hate him or whatever, that dude can coach!

Aggies are getting a lot stronger


Come on PDB and tell us how awful this is and how he is old and washed up

Report: SEC Power to Hire Bobby Petrino as Offensive Coordinator

Even by Bobby Petrino standards, this was quick. Less than three weeks after being hired as the new offensive coordinator at UNLV, Petrino is leaving the Rebels

I just this also. I'm not a fan of his but he had a good team at Arkansas. He's a good offensive coach. We'll see if he can bring some life to A&M's offense.

I think it will be an improvement. I'm not saying they are going to miraculously turn it around 100% but it could get interesting

I knew A&M had a poor season, but this is pitiful:

Fisher will look to Petrino to instill life into an offense that has struggled mightily across the past two seasons. Texas A&M ranked No. 101 nationally and 13th out of 14 SEC teams in scoring offense during its disastrous, 5-7 2022 campaign.

The article also states that Jimbo has been calling his own plays for the past 13 seasons.

That's a big decision to give that up, but I guess he realized he needed to do something.

They had a lot of talent last year but just never got it working. They need something not sure he is the answer. I think Jimbo has underperformed at A&M. They have had talent but haven't performed.

Not sure what to think but can't be any worse than what A&M has done recently.

I'm not necessarily a SDS fan, and this article is a little bit strong, but I have to agree with the guy's sentiments. It may turn out to be a great hire, but Petrino's past job history, and post employment interviews with staff members from numerous previous numerous jobs, leads me to believe that Petrino is a condescending narcissist who can only get success for a short period of time before things start to unravel. He doesn't stay anywhere long, and people are always glad that he's gone despite his success.

That's a great article.

One Arkansas staffer told me, "He was an ass—-, but he was our ass—

He brings up a lot of things I didn't know. Makes you wonder why would Fisher even consider it, unless they have a history that the article doesnt mention.
