Watch Mark D’Antonio for this job.
I heard from an Aggie buddy they think the Aggies can bring D’Antonio back to his home state of Texas as he has done amazing at Michigan State.
Top flight coach...Sumlin is a great example of a good coach chewed up by a bad situation.

In other news, would Jimbo really ditch Fla. St. for A&M?
Mini-tangent - this is precisely why I think paying the players is a horrible idea. It would destroy the education system.His buyout is $38 million. Sumlin's buyout is another $11. So before they pay Jimbo a cent, they will have already spent $49 million. This is obscene. They would still fill that place with 100k rednecks if i were coaching the Aggies. They are already getting major SEC cash. What are they buying? How many underprivileged kids could go to free at aTm for $49 million?

Now, simply allow the players to profit from their own names and likeness on the other hand...
Hmmm. Interesting thought. Why haven't you brought this up before?Mini-tangent - this is precisely why I think paying the players is a horrible idea. It would destroy the education system.

Not necessarily - rosters are only so big.My concern with that is wouldnt it push kids to the top schools if they could make $ off likeness. A kid would be more marketable at duke and uk. It would make the playing field even more uneven then it already is.
Sumlin was being offered NFL head coaching interviews 2 years ago and he turned them down. Now he is going to be out of work. Amazing how things work out
It's Texas where even the football culture at the high school level is crazy.Oh Texas A&M how delusional can you be?
Yes. Boosters would make sure of it. If they're willing to pay off Nick Saban's mortgage, imagine how they (and other schooks like Alabama) will figure out how to manipulate that kind of system to pay their players the most and make sure recruits know it.My concern with that is wouldnt it push kids to the top schools if they could make $ off likeness.

A player is a lot more marketable starring than sitting the bench.
