they will have to. hell, it wouldn't surprise me if they hired a female AD.

WOULDN'T HIRING A CHILD AD BE MORE APPROPRIATE?

Penn St is more an opportunity than it is a mess. There ain't going to be any change in admission standards like Ken Pye approved at SMU. They've got 90,000 fans-there is no reason they can't do better than when Joe Paterno has been sleeping through the last decade.

or franchione.

Dan Mullen seems to be the lead candidate for the Penn State job.

One of our top HS receivers, who had verbally committed to TT, visited aggieland last week and it was reported that he was changing to a&m b/c he wants to play for sherman. Them having a couple of our former players probably helped, too.

Sherman will be gone next week

Hope it messes w/their recruiting big time--probably won't matter too much

Not if they get Sumlin or FedorA

agreed....especially sumlin. it was a pleasant thought for a split second though.

Sherman may get 1 more year I think but according to this on Texags he might be gone.

Texas A&M has decided to fire football Mike Sherman but has not yet notified him, a prominent Aggie source just told me.

A&M would owe Mike Sherman between $3M-$5M because he didn't sign his extension contract, the Aggie source says.

Houston's Kevin Sumlin would emerge as the A&M frontrunner. "He's the favorite of Aggie Nation," the source says.

Aggies will fire Sherman either tonight or Friday morning

By Kirk Bohls | Thursday, December 1, 2011, 06:15 PM

Mike Sherman will be fired as Texas A&M’s head coach either later today or early Friday morning, the American-Statesman has learned.

A prominent Texas A&M alumnus with strong ties to the Aggies’ athletic department said this afternoon that the decision was made today. A&M’s board of regents did not vote on the issue, but have discussed this since A&M’s 27-25 loss to Texas on Thanksgiving night.

"The decision was made today," the source said.

Sherman is scheduled to return to College Station from a recruiting trip sometime tonight.

"It will be done within 24 hours," the source said.

Texas A&M would owe Sherman somewhere in the range of $3 million to $5 million to buy out the remaining four years of his contract.

Sherman makes $2.2 million a year.

Sherman is 25-25 in his four years at A&M.
