Do The Big Oil Guys……..

Postby Mountainman » Sat Dec 10, 2022 1:05 pm

……….. down in College Station think maybe they hired the wrong guy????? At 10 million bucks a year, it’s a good question. In any event…….. Guess who’s coming to dinner????? :wink: :wink: :wink:

Fisher and Petrino. If you put both those egos in the locker room will there be any room for the players?

Petrino's in the Banquet Hall, meanwhile, the players cannot be found on the field ... or anywhere else, for that matter.

Since December 5th, Texas A&M has had 24 players enter the Transfer Portal.

How's that figure into the percentages of: Player to Portal x Coaching {variable / relevancy}
you were asking for, Mountainman?

8)

Let’s do the math Cane and see if we can make some sense of all this…….. 8)


OK, I looked it up and there’re 24 Aggie Players that have entered the Transfer Portal so far. And as we’ve just found out, the Aggies have added 1 Coach.


So after doing the calculus we can prove mathematically that in College Station for every 24 players who choose to enter the Transfer Portal, you hire ONE additional coach. :shock:


So the conclusion can be drawn that, the Big Oil guys have drilled a Dry Hole. :roll:

They just need to put "no motorcycle riding" in his contract. 8)
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

I recall a picture of Petrino and his motorcycle…….. with a hot, hot, hot BIG BUSTED Blonde along for the ride, and I swear both of her bosoms were bigger than the headlamp on that bike, and believe you me, both of those bad boys were on HIGH BEAM!!!!! :shock:

Of course he was going to crash ...

I mean, you can't exactly expect a guy to turn a proper corner with the shift of balance from that kind of haul.

Word now has it, the Big Oil Guys might be ready to buyout the head guys contract ...

I had wondered when Petrino got the OC position, if they were maybe looking in a replacement for Fisher.

If it happens early enough, I'm sure there's no second guessing who the interim becomes [with possible permanent title post season]
