Link: Texas A&M hiring Bobby Petrino as Offensive Coordinator

[Tidelines]

Agreed. This will not end well. Petrino was hired at the insistence of donors - you can be certain Dumbo went along begrudgingly. This marriage may end in a fist fight.

That would be ....must see TV, or Twitter clip.

Starting to sound like a casting call for a bafflingly bad reality tv show on CMT

He's probably hoping they give him the job after they fire Jimbo.

 

[CajunCrimson]

I think Jimbo likely thinks he hired the one guy in the world they would never replace him with.

 

[CajunCrimson]

So, because Jimbo’s offense is so 2003, he’s pushed to hire a guy whose offense is so 2008?

lol.

This isn't going to end well...

Depends entirely upon your perspective. If you (like me) enjoy watching other SEC programs go full-Hindenburg, this may well be a fun one to watch.

aTm is becoming Auburn, West Campus. Except I’m not aware that, even in the Loveliest Village, any of the current or former coaches still on the payroll actually presided over the literal death of a player.

It's hard for me to say this, but A&M's weird traditions and unfounded pride almost make the Barners seem kinda normal.

Jimbo thinks he's pulling a Saban and rehabilitating coaches. I'm excited to see it all blow up in his face

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Jimbo is a rich man who just hired his only heir to pack his parachute for him to go sky diving. (And I suspect this was forced on him for the very reason to have the replacement in place when they shoot Jimbo out of the cannon without his helmet on).

Most Punchable Staff goes to the Aggies, with USC and Clemson being jumped.

 

[Saban4Ever]

SEC Shorts should do a video about the Petrino hire and Texas AM issues. Lol

another year, another non-commitment from Bob Petrino.

This guy has been married to one woman for 37 years.

We can argue the depth of that commitment, but it's still kinda shocking given his public stuff.

There's a term for it in the law...condonation.

She should go to heaven without dying...I've known several women who refused to file for divorce when they knew their husband was fooling around and even living with a girl friend. Their response -- as long as he pays the bills it's not my problem. Oh well...
