I would hate to work in a Town where the Alumni's bother you so much to get their own personal paper. LOL
IBflames This post is more of a joke and for fun. So do not get butt hurt.

Bryne's probably already shopping for a coach right now, he did that with Gillespie, and Turgeon. But all we have to go by are people throwing around peoples names. The big ones are Urban Meyer and the likes. The funny one that shows up is Mike Leach.

there was a rumor of a group of people going from the AD's office to speak with WVU's coach.

The only people throwing Meyer's and J. Johnson's names around are those Aggie supporters who are dreaming. It'll never happen. Mike Bellotti or Chris Peterson would be a good hire, as would Gary Patterson. $Bill should go with Fran too IMO. Think about it...if Rich Rodriguez turned down the Alabama job to stay at his alma mater, WVU, where he signed a huge long-term contract, he's not going to leave there to move to College Station to coach A&M.

Jimmy Johnson is a joke on most aggie boards. Urban Meyer is a pipe dream on most aggie boards. Its not bad to shoot that high.
Another name that keeps popping up is Tommy Tuberville in Auburn.

IF A&M fired him who will you get to replace him ? There are no overnight fixes in college football. There recruiting has to be down in the region, just look at the schools they are up against. Gary Patterson is a really good defensive coordinator but he has yet to get those guys to seal up a great season. IMO Aggie land better do like the old song and "love the one your with". You wanted him now you got him, kinda like my beloved Irish. They cried from the mountain tops for Weiss and now you gotta stick with him threw it all, and hope the future is brighter than the present.

The Irish lost 9 starters on offense. They kept 2 linemen and that was it. Everybody else is new. Same story on defense. They are a young team and Weis will shape them into champs. Just watch.
Same story with Florida. They lost a tough one tonight against Auburn, but they are a young team just oozing with talent everywhere you look. Urban Meyer will turn that talent into a team of champions. They I think they will win it all next year. And maybe the year after that as well.
Same could be said for Oklahoma. Cory Bradford didn't play very well, but he seems like he's going to work out just fine. And Bob Stoops will keep those guys in the hunt for many years to come.
Unfortunately, the same can't be said for A&M, UT, or Tech. Unless something big happens it looks like they'll all be stuck in mediocrity for a while.

I don't know if Jimmy Clausen will win the Heisman anytime I just want him to be a good productive QB. 2 years is worth it IMO as long as he gets the Irish back to the level they once where. I don't care if they lose every game, everyone will understand that the giant is sleeping.
Sam Bradford was one guy I heard being talked about this year for Heisman but after that performance on Sat. he may be knocked down a bit. I am betting that OU will have a huge performance against and inept UT team, that struggles to stop the run up the gut.
