Haven’t heard that one yet. Hung out with a heavy handed booster at the Astros game on Wednesday night. He wouldn’t give up much, but he mentioned a couple names, Pederson was not one of them.
Pretty sure both lines are shallow on talent last I checked and may be moreso after the rona seniors leave. Not sure how much we have comin with the 22 class.
Its Riley 1st and Jimbo 2nd. If Riley accepts he will be the highest paid coach in college football. Could be total bullshit but it’s what I got out of “Mr. Jimmy” as I’ll call him. Said Woody isn’t saying shit or answering to anybody, including the the individual who solely forked out 90% of the cash buyout Ed O Don’t shoot the messenger.
They more that I stewed over the potential replacements, the more I am inlined to think that Aranda will be the choice. Also think he will hold on to Raymond, Joseph, and McMahon. Raymond servers as recruiting coordinator so a +. I know some knock Joseph’s coaching, but look at at how Boutte has developed + how the freshmen receivers are coming along. Special teams are greatly improved since McMahon joined the staff. Aranda knows all 3.
Raymond and Joseph are safe. You do not want either of those guys on another SEC staff recruiting against LSU in Louisiana. Specifically in the NOLA area. I’ll say this, if they’re not retained and Jimbo isn’t the hire, I’d put a lot of money that one or both find their way on A&M’s staff next season.
