Coordinators get hired away when they do well. This is a good problem to have.

And anyone with any sense can recognize that the Ags have blown every major matchup (not an upset) they have played for decades.

They haven't shown they can with the big one.

No. Past history doesn't affect the current team. But, still. As a fan. It sure feels that day when you look at the record

So yeah, it only makes sense to guard against the inevitable disappointment. History as a fan dictates this reasonable response

I'm so glad our team isn't as weak as you.

Let me guess…you said this before Notre Dame. Before LSU. Before Missouri. And then you went away for a while and we lost to tu and now you feel big and strong and relevant again. And so here you are.

OC and DC both gone in weeks.

We are preparing for the biggest game in recent history, certainly of my 30 years as an Aggie.

Why can't we have ONE good year where everything goes our way??

---

Apparently you're not in tune with Aggie Football, because Bateman was OC by name only. He was inept at his duties, just like Klien. Both were probably a "leave or be fired" situation.

We're fine and way better off for next season, but the only thing that concerns me is Klein coaching through the playoffs. If it were up to me, he'd be gone.

Hmm ok.

They were both Elko's picks.
This should have happened after the season.

I think a lot of us in the silent majority share your take on this team and season.

BTHO Miami, OSU, Ga, and Bama! GIG'EM!! WHOOP!!!

I'm hoping and praying, but what little football I know from the late Coach Steinke, it's going to be next to impossible for this dream to come true.

They are happening after the season. Both Klein and Bateman will be here through the playoffs.

Yeah but we are in the playoffs. I'd get it if the defections happened for a crappy bowl game. Just proves these duds didn't care about winning.

Both can be true. They care about winning, and they care about their career paths.

Bateman has not been calling the defense in some time - don't see how there is much of a change in regards to him moving along.

Elko is DC really so this isnt that big a deal.

The OC is a big issue but not sure what you can do about it except hope. Somebody call Hope.

Downplay anything negative and readjust the maroon glasses. Another rodeo

College athletics (especially football) is a mercenary sport.

Somebody asked Marcel what he would do if Miami offered him $4,000,000 to come play for them next year and he was all grins (couldn't keep a straight face). His response was that "I'd have to talk to my parents".

Nobody is a lockdown anymore.

Our OC is going to be the HC at his alma mater? Good for him. He's staying here and coaching through the playoffs, so that's great.

---

Glad he's at least staying through the playoffs but as an Aggie football fan, my hope isn't for productive members of the coaching staff to find great gigs somewhere... anywhere. My hope is to win national championships. And that probably means I hope productive members of our coaching staff stay at a&m.

We started and ended the year with the same guy playing QB. And when we had injuries, they were generally in places with a little bit of depth. That's pretty good based on recent history.

Agree that it was a much above average year.
But I am concerned our November swoon is now going into December.
I am okay to lose to OSU as they are better but not to Miami.

That's the Aggie way/

What again is the negative?

If you have a head coach and a program that's going places and is good you're gonna lose coordinators to other programs. So it's a great place to be and a positive.

Now I know you have BAS but since you started this thread, I guess you would rather have a bad head coach that would have no concerns with losing his coordinators because nobody wants them.

FYI, this has been happening in college and pro football forever yet you start a thread saying the world is ending.

I'm looking forward to seeing whom our new OC & DC are.
A&M needs to be producing HC's and NFL Players!
Elko is building a Football Program.....

So…he demoted the DC from calling defense and the OC called a loss in an undefeated season against our most important rival. Might take a moment for a truly amazing outcome which is an NC not an 11-1.

National spotlight
Expectations as high as possible
Game day coming to town

It's all the classic signs of an embarrassing crapping of the bed by an A&M FB team about to unfold.

This game more than any other will tell us if Elko is for real or it's just another 5 years of same old same

A&M is playing with house money. It's the greatest season yet and nobody saw this coming.

No bateman? I call that a plus!!!!!

Just like against Notre Dame and LSU, right?

Just like coming back from a 30 point deficit to win, right?

Just like going undefeated at Kyle, right?

Did you just not watch this entire season?

"They haven't shown they can win the big one."

Every game this year was "the biggest game ever" and we won every one, except for Texas. And made it into the playoff. Have some ****ing faith for once.

8-4 is the likely ceiling

We suck on the road in big games with expectations and will drop all 3 of ND, LSU and cow

Then after that it's absolutely chugging Koolaid to believe we only drop 1 of Arkansas/USC/Missouri /Florida/Auburn but let's chug and assume we only lose 1.

Where are we?

8-4

Just don't give him a raise
