    i want:

    1. Butch Davis
    2. Mike Sherman
    3. TT

    dont' want:

    1. chris petersen
    2. any other mid major that hasn't proved himself


    ...i realize many here, including capt. head (whose comments about the A&M program are unbelievably off-base), have confused the A&M football program with a second tier job b/c of recent results. don't be ignorant...recruiting, facilities, and financial resources put A&M right near the top. its a great job for just about any coach...

    Should have hired Butch Davis a few years ago when you had a chance. TAMU would be a power right now.

    Reportedly agreed to an extension with UNC.

    2. Mike Sherman
    Not necessarily a bad idea. Would have to have a solid DC to go along with him. His name has been floating around a lot lately. Frankly I'd rather see his boss hired but that won't happen.

    3. TT
    All things considered, probably the biggest name A&M could draw. Big game coach who's coached an undefeated team within the last 5 years and has recruited and coached well in the SEC. The powers that be at A&M seem to like him a lot and the feeling seems to be mutual. He's probably at the top of the list right now.

    Tedford's name is still making the rounds.

    i heard that about Butch Davis as well, but i am hopeful. Davis would be a great great hire, imo.

    BD would be at Arkansas before he'd be at aTm. And is it a trend to always be searching for a coach of some kind?

    Didn't you guys just fire a coach?

    I don't think he'll go. Why leave your alma mater when you've got them in the top ten consistently? He replaced the guy that coached him (Don Nehlen) fifteen years before when he retired.

    I know it's a different sport, but when Momma called Bob Higgins this summer, he came.

    Mike Sherman is likely.

    Rich Rodriguez has the perfect situation where he's at. It's a lot like the Big 8 was back in the day for UNL and OU. He basically plays a 2 game schedule every year.

    He's paid, he's loved, he's home. Not much reason for him to jump anywhere else.

    Butch played for the Hogs 25 or so years ago and coached high school ball in Arkansas.

    That's the name with the most noise of late. If he could leave the Texans now then it would be an ok hire. Not flashy, but flashy isn't necessarily needed. He would cost less than Tuberville, so perhaps more $ would be available for solid OC and DC hires.

    Not necessarily. Whoever the coach is will have the battle out Texas, Oklahoma, LSU & others for the top Texas recruits and A&M isn't really a big name school for that. They will have decent recruting classes every now and then but not enough to make them a real good football team. It is going to be tough for the new coach, whoever they are.

    Don't be delusional. The Ags play in the largest stadium in the Big 12. They have one of the highest enrollments in the country, just a couple thousand less than Texas. There's 5 million people less than an hour and a half away to influence.

    Because we all know how much RAZORBACK NATION!!!! want to keep Nutt. Arkansas is in the same position as ATM just got new bball coach and will be looking for new football coach. Except U of A will have fired both their major men's sports coaches

    But I agree that Butch would go to Arkansas before ATM due to his long standing ties with the university and the state.

    Ps The amount of post-LSU victory sucking going on this state (Arkansas) is ridiculous. I should've stayed in Texas.

    top tier because they have the best facilities, one of the biggest fan bases and richest alumni, that is why.

    how dense are you?

    Well, I guess that makes up for the decade long absence of conference les, derth of Top 25 finishes and pathetic bowl record since the Regan administration.
