But much better chance if he were to take SMU to new heights next season.

He should take the SMU raise that is on the table and keep his eye on the big prize, Aggie


There is no guarantee that the Aggies would hire Morris if they ever fire Sumlin.


No guarantee, but he has a helluva lot better chance if he gets SMU to 9 or 10 wins next year, than what will most likely by
a mediocre to bad record at Baylor.

...And also consider this. Even IF, and big IF, he has success at Baylor before the TAMU job opens up, The Aggies will take a dim view of him jumping over to Rapist University and bailing on SMU.
They have an honor code that they take seriously, and IMO, Morris will be tainted to them.

My twin brother thinks so, and he is an Aggie Alumni.... so there's that..



No guarantee that Sumlin gets fired next year. Your twin brother might be trying to comfort you in a potential time of loss. I understand. If Morris is making 5 mil a year with support from The Baylor administration he may be comfortable there anyway.

Dude, you just don't get it. Aggie IS HIS DREAM JOB!! .. and it would behoove him to do what it takes to get there.

and please don't pretend to know my brother, you have no idea, he and I talk sports all day everyday. This has
a lot of importance to him, as he is not a big Sumlin fan. He would love to have Morris.

Happy Thanks Giving though!

It appears some Aggies agree with me

Assuming it's true that Chad is one foot out the door to Waco, it will be interesting to see how this team responds. Play this one for the seniors...not for the coach who apparently will not be there for your bowl game if you are able to earn one

probably in Arlington catching Tech Baylor game

Yes! A win vs Navy, followed by a stong HC hire and a bowl win would be
great.

I was waiting for the statement from Chad that he is staying. But I guess the silence says it all.

Hopefully the team will play had for themselves and their seniors.

Rebel, I think the smoke is thick enough that if he DOES end up going to Baylor, this deal was in place a long time ago. Back in September. So the whole game promoting the charity would be just a bit to give him reputation as cracking down before going to Baylor. That is kind of shady. Plus they aren't going to let him bring his staff, so he would mess a lot of his staff over. And he would have lied to players. IF he does go, it doesn't look good on him and doesn't reflect the image he has been projecting. That is the biggest problem I have with it, IF he goes. But I don't think he will.


Jason, let me know when you are ready to discuss this further.
