Great move for both parties

It certainly seems like he was the fan favorite.

I was worried MSU would get Elko. Guy is a good coach. Having said that, aTm fans are still going to lose their minds because they thought they would get Campbell, Lanning, Meyer, etc.

 

[LonghornInOmaha]

Decent hire. Surprised they were able to circle back around and land him. Must have really overpaid for a head coach...again.

 

[PeliniTheCrutch_rivals294365]

Sounds like Bobby Petrino will be free then!!!!

 

[Harry Caray]

Solid coach, but hard to see him living up to their expectations. He might win 8-9 games a year there, but that got the last two coaches there fired.

With hefty checks on the way out. So if he doesn’t win on the field, he will off of it at least. If I was him, I wouldn’t go there unless I think I can get 9-10 consistently.

ATM fans ticked about this one too

Until they riot in the streets of college station

Who did they think they would get? Urban Meyer?

Most of them delusionally thought they were getting Lions HC

Who do they think is coming there?

Right. Dan Campbell. One of the best young coaches in the NFL has the Lions winning for the first time in decades is going to leave that to go to College Station. I thought we were delusional fans. RollingLaugh

Tells you the market. Campbell makes 4M a year with the Lions but could make 9-10M in College Station.

11 mil for assistants wow

Good agent.

Jimbo didn't even make it to eight wins the past two seasons. Going 5-7 last year and losing at home to Appalachian State made it imperative for him to have a good record this year, but he only won six games.
